What do you define, as "meeting times" Do you mean like you have your own forum, just get on YIM or AIM or something else? Also what exactly do you do? I am currently working on a mod, and am not terribly interested in joining an official "team", especially since many will likely quit after a few months, but I might be willing...

When I say what work do you do, I mean like what types of mods do you actually create? Graphics, orverhauls, balance, new races, new ships, what? I am relatively good at making models in XSI, though I am horrible at textures (maybe it would help if I actually took the time to do the tutorial...)

Coding and general designs I am good at, though graphics not so much (would help if particle forge would start working), and then balance is just change a value here, change a value there...

Oh and is this going to be a "proffesssional" team, or is it just going to be a group of wisecracking teenager guys whose parents aren't strict? This question may sound stupid but it actually could influence whether I join or not, but not in the way you would think...I'll give you a hint: It doesn't have anything to do with money...

So it’s the grand opening of a team with nothing to show, 3 people, and a vague description of what it is this team actually does, other then you’re the leader, but won’t be here for a week.
Between this and the fact you spelled “professional” wrong I don’t think there is a great incentive to join the “Galactic Modding Team”.

I bet these guys are really good at being ideas and PR people!!!!! Don't discount their extreme talent guys!!!!!!!!

Well, its true....we have nothing to show, cuase we are brand new....we need people.

There is me, a coder and mapper, I made a few maps, I did a few small mods changing maps and ships around. I understand the basic's and I want to put a team together. Great things often come from nothing, also on the team I have Darth Devan, I believe he can code and map as well. Thinktacticalangle makes vidoes, and will help much later on.

Right now, we are in a state where we need other's support and people to join, for all teams have to start somewhere. If I can get enough people in the next 7 days, and they all have X-fire....I truly believe that we can make something great, weather you are the people that made the game, or you just bought it....everyone and everything has to start somewhere.

-Lets make a great mod.

From past experience, "Leaders" only get in the way of development and take all the credit... ...once I communicated regularly with someone trying to be the "leader", he tried being the hub- isolating the people with talent from one-another and accumulating everyone's work for his own propose (sort of like the SINS AI players, no imagination)...

The issue of trust is a tricky one... ...made simple by learning how to do everything yourself...

Of course, Modding at it's best is an artist's domain, because all the real decisions are made by the developers. Writing the algorithms that run the game is so very different than making an ability that doesn't cause minidumps (although sometimes it seems like the same thing, but with less control, and MUCH less power)...

...If you want to know what it's like to be GOD, become a developer... ...You will understand Bruce Almighty in a different way, and you will never, ever want to be God... ...Those who want to be god think it's just a snap of the fingers and presto!, everything is all done, but that's just so boring...

LOL!!! I clipped that one (Dilbert), it was one of the best...

Yah, I mean I'm technically the leader of my mod, but I know everyone else wants in on it too, so I try to acknowledge Soviet (or anyone else that helps) whenever they do something. I know what its like to be on a team and the leader inadvertantly takes the credit. Honestly, I really don't like being the leader, but I don't like being a follower either. Unfortunately, my friends tell me that I'm a great leader... I guess I would just hope that you are the same way, caring about your team and their ideas constantly.

I suppose its like one of my favorite quotes: "The only ones wise enough to have absolute power, are thos who refuse it."

Hey, I'm modding so I can show off my kickass skillz, not for the greater good.

I kinda stopped watching the whole show when they got cozy with the Viking martians...
