Jack Matthews leaving 3dfx: What effect will this have? Got this from voodooextreme.com This might come as a yawn to a lot of you, but it should spice up things from the boring ol "Patch this" and "Mouse that" of .plans lately :). I'm leaving 3Dfx to work with Charlie Brown, Gary McTaggart, and Mike Wardwell. This decision has been quite a long time in the making, and it's just now come to the right time. Before anyone wonders if I'm "jumping ship" from 3Dfx for stock or any other reasons, that's not it at all. I'm happy as a clam at 3Dfx, it's a great place to work, and there's absolutely wonderful people around me. It's just that opportunities like this don't come around very often, and I'm following my heart and taking a leap to do what I really want to. 3Dfx's stock price, working conditions, or salaries had absolutely nothing to do with this decision, so please don't be posting around stuff like "See how shitty 3dfx is doing jack mattttttttthews is leaving its proof that my conspiracy theory was right along." I won't thank people at the company one at a time, as there have been too many nice people to name off, but I want to thank them for putting up with the arrogant bastard I am, and for the incredible amount of learning I've done. It's been the most incredible experience of my (albeit short) life. For those wondering, I will still remain as I have been with GameSpy. I can't think of a compelling reason to leave that endeavor, as it's something I enjoy doing and hope to continue doing for awhile. Plus, Joe and Tim stuck with me during a few months when I didn't know how to balance responsibilities... Can't let them down now :)
