The competition thing was obviously a joke, they're probably friends of his.

Yes, and while we should have fixed that a while ago, they also could have taken steps to ensure that old links still worked when they redid their website.

GameDev.net Sid Meier announced as design keynote! This is a pretty huge deal as Sid isn't often giving such talks. So if you plan to attend, be sure to get there at least 30 minutes early because there *will* be a line! http://www.gamedev.net/community/forums/topic.asp?topic_id=560394

I am new myself, but glad to have stumbled on XNA Studio. This is a free tool and was easy to pick up because I had a little background in C#. I don't know how marketable the skill will be for getting jobs, but I've found it a good way to gain an introduction to game development relatively quickly for PC and XBox.

GameDev.net So, we finally cleaned up those "fan photos" - thanks to anyone who reported them but apparently none of those reports make their way to *us* :P We've been around so long without any abuse of the un-moderated Fan Photos section we got a little complacent! Will keep a better eye on it in the future - we don't want to sw...itch on moderation unless we really have to.

GameDev.net we're starting to work with the site Events for Gamers to keep better track of all the many industry/consumer events out there that interest game developers. Our first step is creating a new forum for you all to discuss upcoming events - learn what they are about, see who else is attending, set up carpool/roomshare, et...c! http://www.gamedev.net/community/forums/forum.asp?forum_id=102
