"Living to smile, and not to succeed; smiling to inspire happiness, not to give the illusion you are happy; creativity and music to inspire smiling, which in turn inspires happiness; being nice to be happy, not for being perceived a good person."

Was the Bungie Thanksgiving meal dominated by either Turkey or Ham?

Did the unfortunate soul who cooked the food also become part of the main course?

Can I haz all teh wimminz?

If you read books, do you prefer a really long series (12 or more books) or a short series (fewer than 5)?

So I'm definitely going out on a limb here, and I know you guys don't like to talk about it. But, how was your thanksgiving?

If you had the chance to make a game that you yourself would love to play for years to come, or make a game that would maybe not be so popular, but would have the power to pull families together for a fun time, which would you lean towards?

Protip: Don't say both, that is totally cheating.

Now, in the quantum moment before the closure, when all become one. One moment left. One point of space and time.

I know who you are.

You are Destiny.

Speaking of chuckles, let's all lol at IonicPaul, who makes friends with bugs to make up for his lack of human contact.

Fist Full of Quarters was a great documentary about video gaming (Specifically high scores). Do you fine folks know of any other video game films you would recommend?

Speaking of old video games, what are some of your favorite old school games? (Atari, NES, etc)

Is there ever a point in development where you regret getting into your particular field of work, or stop loving the project you're working on?

I posted this in a mail sack thread after the sack had happened, mostly as a reminder to myself. So I'll post it once more in this active sack thread, and then let it die. It's probably an embarrasing question, but I'm o si curieux...

........


In this Sack, we see a response (a picture of a tank) from one Roger Wolfson, whom you proclaim to be a Theoretical Physicist.

Me being particularly incapable of detecting sarcasm (and this being an online forum) some small (actually rather large) part of me wants to know: Is that actually what he is/what he does?* If so, what exactly does he do for a video game company? Actually, searching for the term "physicist", I see an answer that there are "a good number of programmers... who are mathematicians, physicists, and engineers". Can we get more details on what the mathematicians and physicists do? (I am certainly a proficient programmer, mostly in Python and C.)

I ask because I'm currently ~halfway towards my bachelor degree in physics, and will probably get a PhD because I haven't had any better ideas. And now I'm curious.


*If it wasn't serious, please crush my hope/curiosity in as quick a manner as possible. (I don't care how embarrassing this post probably is, I would really like an answer.)
