Are you surprised at all the recent Vizzed Records and milestones being broken lately?
Are you aware that the site recently hit 750,000 posts?
What is the easiest way to make a hack? I would not mind making a color hack of Mario Kart 64.

Has a new global mod been picked yet? I know I can't expect to know early or anything but I am interested in who it is, which I bet you can understand

I do not know if you have noticed, but I know at least myself, but summoning when I summon more then a few people, none of my summons work... I don't know what I am doing wrong. I am doing it the same way as always, and it worked then... Any suggestions?

On what basis are you looking for the new global? Just curious. 

mrfe : I'd continue living where I currently live. I also don't really have a specific place I'd want to visit. I'm not a needy (or greedy) person and I'm usually pretty happy with where I'm at.

zelda2 : Clear your cookies and than sign back up. What's happening is, it's storing a different password for the different directories.

Varaddude630 : I've only been in 1 country, which is the one I'm currently in (USA).

earthwarrior : I'm confused by your first question. If you mean how are they picked, I pick them based on games that have staff reviews. Highly rated games go to the game of week and average or poorly rated games go to the game of the day.

ender44 : One where everyone gets along and there's no drama. Also one that has all my ideas implemented (including a Battle Arena and a 'Vizzed Ville' MMORPG).

SuperCrash64 : It hasn't been updated in probably 8 years.

Eirinn : Probably 7 years. I actually started a little late in life compared to some people.

thing1 : I'm not really that surprised because it was bound to happen eventually.

I'm not aware of the 750,000 posts. I remember making a big deal about 500,000. Once we hit 1 million, we'll have to celebrate.

Easiest way to hack is to use rom hacking tools. They have level editors for many games.

geeogree : The globals are still discussing it. It's been a hard decision.

thing1 : No idea why.

ender44 : They have to be local and they have to be a top contributor among the locals.

Thanks, it worked!

Huh, surely there's somewhere you'd love to visit... Or you're just weird. Not sure which. lol.

Question: How much free time do you get? Does taking care of vizzed take up your whole day, or do you have time for other stuff?

mrfe : Even if I did visit somewhere special, I'd probably spend most of my time indoors working on the site. This site doesn't allow me to leave it for very long unfortunately. There's always tons of work to do, lots of unexpected maintenance pops up and I'm always working on trying to make this place better by adding features.

I spend 40+ hours a week on the site, which isn't nearly as much as I use to invest into the site. Between working out, spending time with wife and helping take care of the kids, there's not a lot of free time left.

Yeah that was my first question. My second one was can I pay to have my game the game of the week. It would give Viz more use for everyone. And not many staff members are interested in Pokemon I think. It would be hard for one of them to review it. 

earthwarrior : Only if a staff member has reviewed it. However, I am now turning user submitted reviews into 'Featured' reviews so if someone writes a good review of your game, let me know and we can use that.

Yes I do sleep lol, I try to get at least 8 hours of sleep, I can't function very well with less than 8 hours of sleep and with the type of work I do, it's hard to concentrate and stay focused with lack of sleep.

Davideo7 : Someone already has reviewed it. Lol. (And its the featured review)  And the game has a rating of 9.7/10. 

earthwarrior : Ok I've made it so that it'll be the game of the week next week.

Why is your user picture what it is? I think we would all like to see the face behind Vi zed! (Spell check doesn't contain site name?)

mister sandman : Because we don't trust everyone to use it since it requires HTML knowledge. A lot of users in the past have made real crappy layouts and some have messed up the thread pages.

fakeusername : Technically that picture does contain my face. I edited a picture of Cloud Strife (from FF7: Advent Children) and replaced his face with my own.

I'll probably one day change my user picture to a full picture of myself.

Do you have a feature you want to add to vizzed that you are really looking forward too? How many ideas do you have?

mrfe : The feature I'm most excited about of all my feature ideas is the MMORPG titled 'Vizzed Ville' that I'd like to develop someday.

How many ideas do I have? I seriously have 100s of ideas. Whether it be things I keep in my head, things I've written down somewhere or things I've posted about. I don't want to mention all of my big ideas, I like to keep some of them as a surprise and others I don't want to talk about at all because some are so innovative (and have never been done before), I'd fear someone stealing the ideas.

So in regard to my last question about your programming education, do you know of a good place for an aspiring game designer to start? I know this doesn't fall into the general idea here, and I apologize for that.

Davideo7 : Thank you. This should bring a whole lot of activity to the game and get more content added to it. 

I probably would have noticed the different face both if I had really looked and if I was into Final Fantasy games, not saying anything bad about them before anyone says something about how great they are, they're just not for me.
