Thread: Friday with(out) Means - December 2nd, 2011: The origin of the word 'Humbug'

    Funcom employee Friday with(out) Means - December 2nd, 2011: The origin of the word 'Humbug'

    (it is not as cool as i had hoped)

    Hey guys! Means is out and about enjoying the many splendors of Disney World (we on the team are currently hoping he brings back one of those mouse ear hats) while we here in Montreal slowly begin to freeze to death under the looming threat of the impending winter - Even newly-upgraded-from-intern Art Guy Cube has also escaped back toward his home for a while, headed for warmer weather than here in Canada. We're all really spectacularly jealous.

    While Colin is off enjoying his well-deserved break, though, things here at the office keep rolling, with the first version of our incoming holiday update having hit our Testlive servers this past Thursday. If you're itching for a sneak peek at what we've got around the corner, our annual Holiday Update Preview article has screenshots and information on how you can join the festivities - With tons of great goodies *and* a brand new holiday-themed instance headed your way, we hope to see you there!

    Otherwise... not much to blabber on about this week, to tell the truth - Mostly just been keeping busy and getting things done at great rates of speed. Hopefully you guys are all doing great, and we'll see you back here next week. Take care!

    When specifically asked for positive words, responding with a personal attack is incredibly rude and inappropriate. Please do not repeat such behavior.

    First page


    two questions:

    1. Will the icicle swords just be purely social, or will they acctually be legitimate weapons?

    2. Whos the guy that thought "Hey, theres a general with "Cha" at the name, lets make it Grin'Cha!" I'd like to have a word or two in my "private room" about how far you can acctually go with the knee slapper jokes.

    You mean like the Train Ride based attraction Through ToTW while playing Quad City DJ in the background?
