Started playing TTD: don't know exactly, but it it was still in the nineties TTO

Joined #openttdcoop: autumn 2007, member since 25 April 2008 ("...change that patch setting yourself..." ;) )

Prefers: low to moderate terraform; fluent, well-designed networks and nice eye-candy

Dislikes: congestions. Permanent quick hacks and bypasses

Best at: don't know - probably ML mergers, SLHs and small fixes

OpenTTD wishes listed here which came true

  • grf info for station tiles (trunk. Thx SmatZ)
  • improved quick goto (faster giving orders) [trunk since r14827 - thx Rubidium]
  • more clients [trunk since r14730 - thx Rubidium]

Random OpenTTD stories and poems

SmatZ works on a pool.
That is so very cool
having clients more and more,
features we adore.
It's just so very sweet -
let's hope he will succeed.
