Ritual's Jim Dose to id!
Umm, wow. MarkD at Ritual updated with this
It is with some sadness and a lot more jealousy that I must report that our friend and chief technologist, Jim Dose' is leaving the company to join Id Software. Jim has had a tremendous effect on how Ritual Entertainment has turned out and he will certainly be missed. We could be upset with Jim but consider these three facts: 1. Jim is leaving the company to join Id Software. 2. Jim is leaving the company to work on the next Doom. 3. Jim is leaving the company to work on the next Doom. Everyone at Ritual wishes Jim the best and we thank him for everything he has done to make Ritual the company it is today. As we see it we aren't losing a part of Ritual, a piece of Ritual is joining Id Software. I personally want to thank Jim for teaching me so much about software development over the last 4 years, it has been a pleasure working with you. Maybe Jim will now get the chance to race his Z3 against Carmack's F50. :)I have to personally congratulate Jim on this move as well. He was a great guy to work with and I couldn't be happier for him. Of course, Ritual is also losing a great engineer. However, with the exception of the evil Patrick Hook, I'm sure everyone there is happy for him going to id. And I think the only way Jim's Z3 would beat the F50 is if it were sitting on the F50's hood. :)
