The Wardens’ Quest – Many Thanks!
Wow, I really don’t know where to begin, what an amazing event!
First I want to give thanks to all the people who supported Team USA. That was amazing to see all the well wishes and support on Twitter, Facebook and the Bioware forums. I’m sorry we didn’t win it for you guys, but we tried.
Second, I have to thank my team: Cat, Tiffany, and Elaine. I have to say that it was incredible being on a team with these women – smart, gorgeous, feminine and video game lovers. It was really validating for me to be with other women that enjoy playing as much as I do. And while our approach might have been similar, our styles were definitely different. And I have to say, I think our new friends at Bioware also learned something about what female gamers love and how that translates to the way they play the game. In that sense, I really feel like we had a real victory. Thanks ladies! You’re the best and I love you! I also want to thank Derek, our team handler from Bioware. He was kind, patient, professional and never condescending.
Third, I have to thank all the other teams. What a great bunch of gamers. It was a blast and I am seriously missing all of you already. It was incredible playing against you and watching you play as well. Team Hungary was solid and I’m happy to see them win. A special shout out to Team Canada and Team Bioware, with whom we spent the most time with before the event. You guys and gals are some of the nicest and funniest people I have ever met. I feel blessed that I was able to meet you all in person.
Last but not least, I have to give it up for the Bioware staff. They were the most generous, genuine, friendly, and kind bunch of people. I really can’t express how awesome they are with words. These people are definitely the reason why Bioware has such success as an organization; amazing talent. Thank you for everything Bioware!
