@ The GWX Team & Testers

[danlisa]

Along with the release of GWX 2.1, I'd like to add:

For me personally, I have never experienced comradeship like it. All the members (past & present) of the GWX Team & Testers are as close to me as family. There isn't one member who wouldn't do everything humanly possible to help you if you required it. That determination & friendship is the driving force behind the dedication these gentlemen & lady have shown along our journey and why you now enjoy the simulation that you do.

Friends, I thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Dan and all the other modders in the team. Thank you!:up:

Without the mods the testing would not be needed and your creativity and drive in producing such great work is what makes testing a pleasure.

Mate, I think that what you've just said... is the bit that GWX users will never fully understand about the team and the project.

Even when tired, cranky, and impatient... we all kept going because none of us wanted to be the weakest link in the chain.

When everyone depends on everyone to get the job done... failure becomes an unthinkable thing. It simply isn't a viable option.

Yeah sure it is just a game... but the people on the team are real.

Once a teamer polishes a bit and hands it to the other... ya just can't lay it down until your own bit is done.

Regarding the testing crew... I think that in many ways, their work was more important than the dev team's work. I think it is often easier to make changes than it is to test those changes in-game. Testing is tedious and boring. Once an objective is reached... its 'reload and check on the next item' week after week after week.

... An amazing team?

... Hell yes! You bet your boots!:rock: :rock: :rock:

I don't think that anyone on the team had any more drive than you did sir. You've been steady as a rock the whole time you've been with the team.

Thank you, mate.:ping:

Sweet, a love in :shifty:

Echo the words posted by Dan

Been an honor and a priviledge to sail the journey with such talented and dedicated modders
Not forgeting the hard hours of toil from the GWX testing crew

Speaking of team members, with all the excitement, has anyone thought of releasing Alex from the galley, I know you have the key KL.

[melnibonian]

I want to add to Dan's post my thank for all the great times we had together in the Team. Working for GWX was one of the best experiences of my life and I'm proud and very honoured to have shared the same dream with every one of you. With all my heart I want to thank everyone for the trust, support, help and friendship you gave me all these years.

I hope every one of you enjoy a well deserved break and some time on actually playing GWX before start work on SH4. The future is bright and I'm sure the GWX Team will be here for quite some time :yep: :up:

THANK YOU FOR THE MEMORIES AND THE GW EXPERIENCE :up: :up: :up:

Although only a tester, I have to add my kudos for the GWX team. It has been a pleasure and an honor (honour in GB) to serve with these fine ladies and gentlemen. :rock::rock::rock:

[danlisa]

....serve with these fine ladies and gentlemen.

Who's been holding out on us? Privateer is it you? :lol: You're always wearing that bandanna, perhaps it's hiding your flowing golden locks.:rotfl:

Lol, yes, Fritz and me are good friends now... I've been so much times in the galley that he even asks me for advice on how he can reach my peeling speed !
Dan, Sir, I believe that you just had the chance to let come from the heart what all of us wanted to say, but did not know how to let it come.
I'm going to appear as the one who has no life... But I don't care. The GWX adventure is just the greatest thing I had the chance to live until now.
In real life, true friends are rare, indeed... And this team is composed of true friends.
I am oh so proud to be a part of you all, kameraden :arrgh!:.
And all the best is still to come...

THANK YOU ALL ! YOU ARE THE BEST PEOPLE I'VE EVER MET ! :rock:

[KeptinCranky]

Well guys and girl it's been quite a ride and what a beauty it's become...

I'm not one for emotional displays and such so let me be brief.... :up:

Now I'm going out there just for the hell of it and sink them all, yes all of them, even the schooners with animated sails, and the airships, hell I've sunk the Lutzow for testing, might as well compensate by sinking Repulse as well

Yaaarrrr...... :arrgh!:

[JScones]

To avoid clogging up the release thread with thank you posts, I'll post here...

Well done team and testers. :up:

Hey GWX Team!
Many thanks for a few weeks of peacetime. Amazing what a different feeling it is to go out on a goodwill cruise of the channel ports :D

[Penelope_Grey]

Well I just want to post that I hate every last one of you... and these types of threads make me want to break something!!
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v324/Spider-Hulk/Penny/PenelopeGreyFullSize.jpg
Only kidding! :up::up::lol::lol:

Well to put my two penneth in... being a grey wolf has been a very very cool experience. All round! And having me aboard has probably given one or two people a major headache now and then... not to mention a few dozen laughs on the flip side to balance it out.

When I joined subsim I had no idea that one day I too would be invited to the team, and I will never forget when I read that PM, which I wish I kept. But I remember the invite from Kpt. Lehmann and to be honest, I never expected to be invited onto the team, never in a reign....yet here I am...I admitted to the whole community once upon a time pre-GreyWolves, that GWX had nearly reduced me to tears trying to sink a ship... so upon joining Grey Wolves... I made it my mission to embarass, humiliate, and reduce them to tears!! See how they like it!! :arrgh!: I don't know if I succeeded, but there is plenty of time yet. LOL - my mission is still incomplete.

I am fully aware... painfully aware, of who is on this team and what they can do and contribute... and frankly... as far as team membership goes, it can make you feel very very inadaquete. Especially as people like Reffy and Privateer come and raise the bar, and then you have DivingDuck's, BigBoyWoolys, Pablo's and other hotshots churning out the content. However that is good, its what drives us all I think, the desire to do what we are good at doing.

If only you could see what the guys on this team are capable of... its mind boggling. The Slogan that I devised for our Corporate Headquarters LMAO was

"Where the impossible, becomes reality."

Believe you me, a lot of impossibles were challenged, most of them overcome. Quite honestly one of the greatest impossibles was to mix real life and GWX commitments, yet somehow, some way... it was.

Every person has their job and their place. I am uncertain as to my place... probably its just to pretty the place up and make them behave themselves lol... they picked me because they needed a mother! LMAO

As far as the Team itself goes, I am under no illusions anymore. Before I joined I was on the outside looking in, and I was very admiring of their offerings to the community. I also questioned why they did some of the things they did. After all this time with them, I now fully understand... I understand what makes the Grey Wolves team tick, and its not a bad tick if you understand it. Everybody has their own way of doing things. You can't always agree on methods.I don't see myself as part of a team anymore, I see myself as part of a family of sorts... a very dysfunctional family granted.... lol... but a family nevertheless and some of the team I know very well, others, not so well... so my new mission will be two fold

1) reducing them to tears and
2) getting to know the other wolves on the team better than I do
(not necessarily in that order)

Other than that I guess I am done.

Except I make a plea to the other female players out there who lurk on SS to make themselves more known and to give GWX a try.:up:

I love you Guys...and the Lady too:yep:.

I just for the freakin' fun of it, played the stock game after re-installing SH3 for GWX2.1 just to see how it was way back. :dead: Well, I dived to 1000m willingly afer 5 min!

I think it's fair to say, that one should not go back (ever) to his old girlfriend after having been in bed with Supergirl!

Cheers!:up:
