GameReplays: As a former staffer at GameReplays, how do you think your experience managing and producing content here helped you move towards were you now are? Perhaps some of our readers would like to go into the game industry. Would you recommend they sign up to help at GameReplays or similar sites in order to reach this goal?


Kevin 'Karune' Yu: Yes, definitely. Even as we speak, there are job openings in the community department for Blizzard, and I know when I review resumes, I am looking for relevant experience in the field that they want to enter. For me personally, I am looking for people who are following their passions, contributing to those communities and interests in innovative ways. Everything about the internet is still so new. The one rule about the net is there are no rules. Whatever your passion is, be confident in yourself to follow them, even if the next step on that path may not be completely clear. If you keep following, another step will present itself, and it is your job now to take it.

Hiriko: I see, so how long did it take you to finish the SC units?


MrJack: It took me just over a week, working pretty solidly every day. I'd guess close on sixty hours. I think a set of six units, which is the most common amount for each unit type, took me two-five hours. The infantry were more intensive, since they generally had both more detail and there were more of them. The Zealots and the High Templar were probably the most time-consuming or the Archons perhaps. Hehe, I specifically remember spending at least half an hour painting the team colours onto the knees and patches of the Zealots.
