Just be awesome. Work hard, be awesome, and be lucky. Those crazy dreams will come eventually. I suffered from writer's block for four years; two months ago I broke it. I now write-out 1000 words a day and dream of better things. If I, a hilariously inept joke, can do what I want when I set my mind to it, so can you. It's just worth remembering that 990 words out of a 1000 are unusable: always keep improving.
Good luck to everyone, really. I'm sure you'll all be awesome if you work hard enough.
And remember kids: That pretty much what you have to do for been good in anything (Except if you are a some sort of weird genius. In that case you aren't human. You are a martian).
P.S: How can you be an "a hilariously inept joke" with this kind of advices?
I always wanted to be in a place where somebody laugh louder than me. That, according to my mom, is pretty much impossible =P.
Try me.
Seriously.
As far as I know, it takes an extreme amount of effort to hire out of state, much less out of the country. Thorsten and Marius were VERY special cases (as you can imagine, we couldn't NOT have them around) so unless you are as awesome as they are, it may be hard.
However, go for it. If you got the skill, we're lookin'. I think our new guy is from Illinois... or at least someone is.

I still have to build some Awesome skills, in my area. But I'm not in a hurry. I still have to finish first the College :P
But I had no idea you had that trouble hiring someone from Out of your state. Thanks godness I practically live near to Santiago, or else I'll have trouble searching for job in my own country :S (But live in Arica or Pta Arenas, the extreme of my country, help to save Taxes. And Pta. Arenas do not have earthquakes!)
I'm a software engineer with 10 years experience. It'd probably be awesome to work for Telltale, but I kinda live in a different country... and to be perfectly honest, I'd rather not live in the USA. Australia's the best country in the world, mate.
Plus I like playing the completed games... I don't think it'd be nearly as much fun to only see them partially constructed
Well, think of it this way, now if you do get the job, you'll be able to talk to Caleb about Chicago and Ronald Reagan.
Depending where in IL he's from I reside in northern IL, so he may or not be from chicago, and or southern IL, and if he's from southern IL, I can't really talk to him about much.

Ah, so it's like how in north new jersey everyone seems to go to new york and down the shore it's the people like on that wretched piece of filth show.
What's the age limit on employees at Telltale? I've decided to send in a resume/portfolio and see what happens, but I'd really hate to send it in only to get a response like "Sorry. We don't hire anyone under 21.", having completely wasted my time.

Yeah, I think Nick was only 18 when he started here. Admittedly it was as an intern, but so long as it is legal for you to work, I don't see any reason why we wouldn't let you.
Yes, I did. In fact, I went to the doctor to stop TALKING that loud. While I'm still laughing (and talking) loud, I'm laughing less loud than when I was little.
Ok, at least far I know it's the same continent. The only difference we do here is the Spanish/Portuguese/some French part with the English/French part. In fact, took me a while to understand Mexico is part of North America and not part of Central America =P.
Anyway, if in Australia I'm in a different continent, them, I am. It's just perceptions.
Continent as we're using the word is an arbitrary distinction made up by humans, so it's correct to say that America is one continent, and and it's correct that North and South America are different continents. I'm just used to thinking of them as separate.
Europe and Asia are the weird ones. I understand the historical reasons for the split, but they're not even on different continental plates. They really should be considered one continent.
Well, according to Wikipedia, some people consider North and South America to be the same continent, while others may consider Europe and Asia to just be Eurasia. Some may say both. Heck, some people may consider Asia, Europe, and Africa to be the same continent. (Afro-Eurasia)
Here's a neato gif illustrating such.

They don't have "Central America" there as far as I know. I two was taught it's a single continent (America), with three subparts (North America, Central America and South America). Mexico was indeed part of Central America, not North America.
But yeah, it's taught differently in different parts. For instance, I still can't believe some people consider Australia to be a continent. For me it's just part of the continent Oceania.

Here Mexico is part of North America. But I had difficult to understand it because I always believed if Mexicans speak spanish, they must be part of Central America

For me is still the largest island in the world with the biggest rock in the world, unless somebody here go and tell me is Greenland (At least of the part of largest. In fact I have no idea).
Anyway, I have a question: If you consider North and South America to be separated continents, where's go Central America and the Caribbean Islands?
The Caribbean is part of North America, even the islands right off the coast of South America. Central America is also part of North America.
For me is still the largest island in the world with the biggest rock in the world, unless somebody here go and tell me is Greenland (At least of the part of largest. In fact I have no idea).
I was taught that Australia was the biggest island in the world and the smallest continent, but then I think now that's a contradiction or something? Maybe I'm remembering it wrong.

Once I hear Australia is the only country in the world to be also a whole continent. Mostly because the rest of Oceania is made up of small islands (A ton of islands, I know).
But check this one for instance: I was taught Chile is a tri-continental country. That is because 1- Easter Island is from Oceania (Somehow. It's still closer to Australia than Chile apparently) and 2- Somehow, we say we have part of the Antartida! (Which, in the rest of the world, is not true. But, we have a colony of non scientist and non military people (somehow) to prove it. Crazy, uh?)
But check this one for instance: I was taught Chile is a tri-continental country.
That's interesting! I believe there is part of France in almost every continent, but France was colonial so it's easier to understand how that came to be.
Continents, the way they're being taught, are, well, human constructed so yeah, there is a lot of variation. Some people consider Eurasia to be a continent, and if you're talking about a mass of land, most of Europe, Asia and Africa are just one big continent.
But it's not nearly as complicated as calling the United States of America just "America". Which makes America part of North America, which itself is part of America... Overly complicated I say

Blasphemy! Such a thing cannot be!
CRAP! Fail at step one
Well, that didn't take much...
Did you have to go to the Doctor specifically to stop laughing that loud?

Oh, but you did, two posts and seven minutes prior.
No short-term memory, eh? :P

Steve was from Minnesota... I think?
Caleb has that awesome Support Gamers magnet on his car. I appreciated it much.
...Did YOU?!
It's 18 and up.
Caleb is the best name ever. Give that man a high-five.

Oh, and make it live viewable on the site for us non-US people who cannot hear it after all...
You wish
