Adam is leaving us. He’s scaling the fence, clipping the barbed wire, and diving into a brand new job in sport improvement. Please be a part of me in saying congratulations to him!
CONGRATULATIONS ADAM.
I’ll say right here what I mentioned to the remainder of the RPS crew: I’m each gutted and thrilled. Adam’s been at RPS for nearly seven years – longer than I’ve – and has been a linchpin of the positioning throughout all that point. Aside from writing fabulous articles about strategy games, horror games, night drives and so much more, he’s additionally been pivotal behind the scenes. He commissions, he edits, he leads the crew in my absence (and fairly often once I’m right here) and, talking personally, has been an vital collaborator and confidant.
But I’m in fact additionally thrilled, as a result of Adam is nice and deserves this thrilling alternative. No, he can’t say but the place he’s going, however I’m positive you can begin badgering him about it immediately.
All that mentioned: I additionally see this as an thrilling time for RPS. Adam joined after Quinns left. Who will be a part of after Adam leaves? We’re advertising for the deputy editor position now, and I can’t wait to start out speaking to candidates.
Adam’s final day will probably be April 26th, so we’ve nonetheless acquired a month left to get pleasure from him within the halls and break room of the RPS treehouse. That additionally means he’ll nonetheless be at EGX Rezzed from April 13th to 15th – if you wish to thank him personally for all his high-quality phrases, you’ll be capable of discover him hunched over a sport or slumped in a chair on a stage. Until we place him upon a Viking boat crammed with printed copies of his 3306 posts for us, set the lot on hearth, and float him down the Thames…
