You can drop me a line on mail anytime with anything. ;-) Or you can find me on BuF. If you find an error on the page, feel free to write me. Don't write me because of every English mistake – I'm not a native speaker, so there will be many of them. ;-)

Carpe Imperium member

I'm glad I became Ci member because some people I knew from forums and UT life (although they might not know me :-)) were already there. I started my join process on 30th March 2006 and next week (the same day – Thursday) I joined as Ci-t member. :-) I became full member on Sunday, 30th April 2006.

I play in ECi – although currently ECi is not that active. But there will be some WARs and CTFs in the future I bet.

Mapper

It was a long time with UT (counting UT99 as well) when I finally opened UEd for the first time. And it was on 2005 Christmas. After another three months and few days I released my second map – DM-Getherto that was accepted quite well.

Level of my mapping activity varies and after Getherto and Taboo I took a longer hiatus. I entered Kranial Games gathering and in April 2007 we released Kranial Mappack #1 where I have rather twisted 5v5 map called CTF-KG-RGB. Check my portfolio for more information. Kranial games disbanded after this effort and now it's time to work hard and learn UT3 level design. :-)

Update 2012: I've been out of mapping business for many years and I'm not sure I'll be able to hop on

Other interests

I like playing guitar and singing – some results are on my SoundCloud profile. I like photography, currently owning Canon EOS 450D. I started to use Picasa for my picture galleries (no art, mostly event documentation). I want to start work on textures in the future – we'll see how it will go.

I also like my job – Java language, platform and everything related. I'm pretty much Internet being. When I decided to write something again, I went for blogging – check my blog for something different than UT. :-)

Other than that? Inline skating (even if I do it rarely), watching Stargate and similar series (although I don't watch anything too much), music – yeah, music. I love music a lot. :-) Rock, art-rock, classic, dance music (rather older one... I love melody, ambient is not really for me except some exceptions ;-))... I like sunny days, rain, wind... snow not so much. And I like to be with my girl. That's why I'm not online all the time. ;-)

I guess that you now know more than you wanted. :-P
