hi titan, been busy..
I wish I had CoH related news or hopes to report. bt today I just have a rather interesting turn of events.
I am now working directly for a billionaire in china, like face to face directly. (no I'm not getting paid much lol) but it's a friendly relationship.
he used to play video games in high school (he's young), but now he doesn't play them much, he heard of City of heroes but never got a chance to play it... I was so tempted to try and pitch to him to go and buy it, but.. I only met him today so it would be a bit inappropriate I think.
oh well thats the update on me.
thoughts?

good for the update.
yeah it probably wouldn't be the right time to pitch it just yet.
See where he would stand on doing something like that first in general conversation. While it's a good start that he heard of COX, it may or may not mean he have any interest in reviving it and or may even feel straight indifference if anything to what happened to the game. Prod around and see. He might be all for it, but then again, he probably would have done it by now if he was all for it.
I'm glad it's been a "good" busy. I like being productive. Hope everything goes well for you! BTW, is that really on the level? Reading the OP kinda reminded me of those phishing emails about the "dying Nigerian prince" who wants to wire you money (as if!) Anyhow, best of luck! And who knows, perhaps in the months ahead it might be okay to mention CoH to your employer, tho I sure would not hold my breath about his wanting to acquire it.

yeah it's on the level, guy drives a fancy car (in china mind you) wears a different suit for each occasion, owns a 5 star restaurant (run by his dad) and probably some other stuff I don't know about, and is now starting up a school because he doesn't know what else to do with his money lol.
thanks for the well wishes and yeah I'll try to pitch coh sometime in the coming months. Or actually maybe it would be best to ask him if I can get Rae to send him a pitch, that might be a bit more propper. bt agian thats months down the road, right now I gotta focus on talking money about the current job lol.
Very cool, Joshex, and good thought about Rae for later. Wishing you every success with your new job!

If he's having problems finding things to do with his money, I'll be happy to be a recipient of some of it. :P
Good luck and well wishes with your job, Joshex. :)
