Merry Christmas everyone!

Sometime back in 2003, Rodger Thorm approached me for a copy of my Word DQ rules, which were submitted to the files section of this list for all to use/abuse as they see fit.

At the time, I had just started my publishing company (RedBrick) and didn't have time to continue with edits/revisions to that set.

Well, 2011 is upon us. I have had some recent conversations with Eric Goldberg and indicated to him that I was keen to publish a "retro clone" (for want of a better term) of DQ, to get it back into print and available (and, more importantly, more openly supported). Eric doesn't hold any rights to DQ, but expressed an interest in how this might progress.

I am keen to assemble a Development Team in the New Year (we do all of our game development online) and was wondering who on this list would be interested?

Before you flood the list with cries of derision or acclaim, please be aware that we are looking for "serious" team members ONLY. Those who are prepared to give of their time in the name of getting DQ out into the market again. There won't be financial reward. There won't be groupies or vouchers for hot chocolate. Just hard (but fun!) work.

At RedBrick, we look for "team players" -- you need to be prepared to leave you ego at the door as sometimes decisions are made that you might not agree with to get products finished, but we do listen to and value all opinions. You need to fit into this mold.

If you are interested, here is the test: Please email me with a short write-up with your experience with DQ, your interest in this project (why and how much effort you think you can realistically commit), and what your expectations are. The cutoff date for expressions of interest is 8 Jan 2011, so get in quick! My email is (change the obvious bits): vestrivan at gmail dot com

I look forward to your responses (and some lively discussion on the list).

Kind regards,

James Sutton (nee James Flowers)
Managing Director
RedBrick LLC
