I wonder what caused this and what changes we can expect.

Let's just hope he doesn't suck.

>Chris Cocks
This just invites too many damn jokes.
>>
>>46617509
hopefully he fixes WotC's retarded digital department.
>>
>>46617531
I hope he won't be too cocky
>>
>>46617591
That's my guess why the old president was replaced.

No Android and OS X support for MTGO is fucking retarded and loses them shittons of money. But then again, Wizards loves to suck Microsoft's cock and getting a MS guy out of all things seems questionable in that regard.
>>
>>46617625
Look at that picture, he just seems like a dick.
>>
>that name
>that face
He could lead gaming into a new golden age, and /tg/ will refuse to do anything but shit on him.
>>
>>46617672
That's /tg/ with anyone employed in the gaming industry.
>>
>>46617509
That's one of the largest foreheads I've ever seen. Jesus Christ, half of his face is just forehead.
>>
>>46617771
I'd go as far as to say he has a fivehead.
>>
Ok, rap sheet. Find it and post it. We need a damn track record of this dick.
>>
>>46617509
His name is ACTUALLY Chris Cocks. Holy shit.

>>46617509
Anyone know what this guy's worked on in the past? OP's article doesn't seem to mention anything.
>>
>>46617771
I heard he has a daughter in Megaton
>>
>>46617834
I worked at a hotel and we once had a guy check in whose last name was Rape
>>
>>46617509
I bet he turns out to be another Lorrane Williams.

Good maybe D&D will get the crazy cool shit that came out under Wiliams' watch. Sure it was unbalanced as hell and hadn't been playtested but we got lots of cool shit then, see Dark Sun, Planescape, and Spelljammer.
>>
>>46617935
He should be forced to change it.
>>
>>46618089
Perkins-sama is kawaii
>>
>>46617509
His face looks shopped

On the one hand, this guy makes this news seem like a goddamn joke. His face is too damn small for his head, his name is LITERALLY Cocks, and he worked for microsoft. He is literally microsoft's old cocks.

On the other hand it seems like he actually plays MTG and DND, so maybe it wont be terrible. Nothing like a corporate shwab to ruin a good game company.

/tg/ can acknowledge people's contributions to gaming while also making fun of their stupid names.

In one breath we can both praise a contributor to the hobby and implying he's a gigantic, walking penis with a foreskin instead of a forehead.

We're a simple people, but we can have multifaceted outlooks on big names in the industry. We're allowed.

Sure, the company will sink, but we'll get cool shit right?
>>
>>46618632

>Kickstarter
>>
>>46618637
What are you trying to imply? That its ok if someone grossly mismanaged a company to the point of bankruptcy because Kickstarter exists?

Are you saying we should accept the days of regular release cycles are a thing of the past and instead embrace multiple years of hopeful emails, empty promises, and distribution fuckups if the product ever does eventually ship?

What are you getting at?
>>
>>46617972
Lorrane Willian\ms did nothing wrong. TSR was a fucking disaster area of bad management and was sinking no matter what.
>>
>>46618718

I was more implying that this was the attitude of many people who back kickstarters, as some make their goals and deliver on their promises, but without an actual customer base end up tanking, even if properly managed.
>>
>>46617509
Jesus that's a red face.
>>
>>46617935
When I worked in a call center, one of my customers had the last name "Slaughter."
>>
>>46621179
He wouldn't have happened to be in the army, would he? Holding the rank of, I dunno, sergeant?
>>
>>46621179
>>46617935

Work in a Hotel, one of our regular guests is a Mrs. Slaughter.

We also regularly see names such as Chris Hanson, etc.

Went to college with a guy by the name of Storm.

That wasn't his surname.
>>
>>46619022
Plus, y'know, the greatest problem TSR had in those days was too many fucking books. Sitting around in warehouses, unsold.
In the days of POD and pdf, that is less of a problem.
>>
>>46617935
I served some old midwestern dude named Matt Ward once.
>>
>>46617509

Because the last guy we got from Microsoft worked out so well!
