*News* 10-Year UO Team Veteran Stormwind Gone?

**Tabbitha** · 17th January 2008, 08:40 AM

Another HUGE loss to UO has been reported by Admiral Ruffle over on Stratics.

I just noticed this tonight, and wrote an article on my blog here .

If true, this is perhaps the most devastating hit to the UO team in its entire history. Can anyone even compare to Mr. Spangler's experience with the UO code? And if true, let me be the first to offer a sincere thanks to Stormwind for all he's done over the last decade for UO (and UX), and wish him the best of luck over at BioWare.

Jeremy, any comment?

- I haven't hit your blog yet Admiral, but what about this:

"Other names of devs you might recognize who are staying on the project - SupreemEA the Master of Code and Prince of UI, Mesanna the Infinitely Wise, Stormwind the Ancient and Undying, and Serado, Lord of the Bugs."

x: aargh I looked at his resume and see what ya' mean. I'm wondering if BioWare is under the same roof? Guess it's time to snoop around a bit more, heh. Hopefully his name and skills will still have a place in UO all the same.

In response Jeremy replied with

Yeah, he's transferred - it was unrelated to the move. It is a heavy loss, but he is still with the company, so if we need his wisdom we can reach him. He's spent the last couple months training people and wrapping up some of the stuff he was best-equipped to handle, so we're not in horrible shape.
