Hello! I'm new to the Polycount team.

Hamish Bode

Hey folks,

If you've checked out the news page recently then you would've seen a new, and weird, name attached to a couple of new posts. Anyway, I'm Hamish (hi!) and I'll be helping out around here with news and a few other things.

A bit about me:
By day, I work as a digital producer/creative in Auckland, New Zealand. By night, I'm a game developer/writer/PR dude/geek/musician/prettymucheverythingelse. For me, Polycount is the place to be and I'm stoked to be a part of the team.

Anyway, Adam urged me to introduce myself so please introduce yourself back if you feel the need. I've been lurking around these parts for yonks, so I pretty much know you all anyway

Ben Apuna

Cool, thanks for your efforts in making Polycount a better place

Makkon

Welcome to Polycount, Hamish! We love you already

Hamish Bode

Default love! That's the best kind. Now I just need a fancy avatar that strikes fear and/or awe into the hearts of all Polycounters. Let me work on that. I'll get back to you.
