I can't believe you forgot about Shams
Shams is the american (if we're going by accents)
Bah, here's a great opportunity to make Paradox sound even more exotic than it already is, and you ruin it
Hmm, I did not know that. I was hoping for one that was actually good.
ok, fuck this - I'm giving Google+ a go since "I'm not active there".
Also the Arrowhead and Colossal Order team are on vacation a few more weeks - hence the lack of posts.

Not wise to anger the Shams, you wouldn't like him when he's angry. Also I hear you can't feed him after midnight.
It's more about not feeding me around 11 AM.
So let's get back on track - ask more stuff about Paradox - preferably on the publishing/business side - enough with the internal team - they get enough space as is (you should see our fridge).

Have you ever consciously moddelled your business style on Gordon Gecko, Patrick Bateman or some other similarly 'hard nosed' businessman? Ever smashed a chair across a developer's back for missing a deadline? Ever told anyone they'll never work in Stockholm again?
More seriously, how many projects do you publish as a proportion of the amounts that ask you to publish them?

Ok, I have a serious question.
How are you guys seeing the economical crisis that is on Europe's doorstep. How is Paradox preparing for this?

Hmmm, I just got some new ideas
The closest thing I've gotten to the America Psycho reference is that our business cards would fit in the famous scene from the movie/book where they compare their cards. Ours is white with silver embossing. Fancy!
I would say less than 5%
Yeah, but what if it turns out Ubisoft Massive have better ones? With subtle off-white colouring and tasteful thickness?
I'm sure their cards will only be readable if connected to the internet.
...or maybe they are only valid for 4 uses.
...or even require you to use an invasive russian "translator" to be able to read it.

I have one of those cards ;D Susana's! Always in my wallet! Ready to be looked at!
And I must say: They look really good!
I think it's even less than 5%.
But it's not a fair assessment since a fair share of the games you'll see coming the next few years aren't games that are "pitched" to us -rather games that we want to make ourselves and just make sure they're done.
Commercial crisis? we're the boy scouts - we're always prepared. If by chance we sell less games, we'll probably not ramp up our growth at the same pace.
