Huh.

lol welp

 

[Tagyhag]

I mean...a friend and colleague just left her company. Could be all there is to it.

That's all it is.

Mary will inevitably leave GS but I highly doubt it's any time soon.

Naw, that can't be it. I think she's alluding to time travel.

idk, Ty Root (Mary's former boss, who left Gamespot a few weeks ago) tweeted this. sounds like things aren't going super great over there.

I don't know what you're getting at. He's making a goof that he doesn't miss himself?

Oh, misread it the first time. Still not sure what to make of it though.

GameSpot: Bad, Getting Worse™

 

[Blastoise]

I don't know if Danny will join GBeast. He will probably get a dev job.

As for Gamespot. Aren't they still the 2nd biggest videogame website in terms of traffic?

 

[Data West]

wasn't danny pushing for the podcast they just started?

and then ditched?

man that's some john davison push to get giantbomb then flake out shit

 

[BanGy.nz]

Does this mean Peter Brown becomes to the go to host in the San Francisco office?

man that's some john davison push to get giantbomb then flake out shit

Where is he now?

 

[Sleeping Lesson]

Danny was pretty much the only reason I subscribed to the Lobby podcast. That came and went fast for me.

 

[justjim89]

Damn. I don't see Danny joining GB. Like Austin, he's kinda too good for the site. Danny could be on TV or something for how good he is on camera. Besides, Drew tweeted about missing him around the office, so that rules out GBWest outright, and I don't see him going the way of GBEast.

 

[bigwinnerx]

Notorious DOD should do a unzipped hoodie reveal on Sunday during the Rumble with a luchadeer t-shirt.

He's brought up buying a house, moving "east", visited NYC, hell, visited Beast, and they're down a man. It'd be an upset if he didn't join Vinny and Alex, I think.

Tournament of Lies on his own channel? He came back after a month hiatus. I'm guessing it had to do with his personal life.

I vote for Rorie to take up the task. Hearing Rorie try to explain sports would be wonderful.

E3 2016: The Lost Footage

Fantastic stuff.

You must listen to it!

Whoa, Danny is leaving Gamespot.

His presence will sorely be missed. He was one of the best things about GS and GB whenever he's on there.

Alt-F1 will continue!

Yay! better than nothing.

https://twitter.com/MerryKish/status/771457977165295616

Huh.

I hope she isn't thinking about leaving as well. So the only ones I'll know from GS for now are Peter Brown, Alexa Ray & Mary Kish.

 

[Data West]

danny left to open a tanning parlor

 

[Zaph]

Damn, this was probably the last e3 drive with Danny.

Gamespot's stageshow is going to be a mess next year.

 

[Salarians]

From glen to glen and down the mountain side...

 

[FStop7]

Mark just announced that he left 8-4. What the fuck is going on today?

Thankfully he will continue to be a part of the 8-4 Play podcast.

 

[kingocfs]

Sad to see the state of GS. How long until Mary jumps ship?

 

[MassiveNights]

Be surprised if she's still there in 2017 at this rate.

 

[Lunar FC]

This e3 vid was great. Would love to see more stuff like this.

 

[LiK]

i suspect she'll be gone in a month or two. seems like anyone who does video content of any kind have jumped ship in the last few months.

Since employment issues are all the rage in here, I applied for a job in late June, got an interview but didn't get the gig.

Just noticed they put the job posting up again last week.

Should I apply again in case they found a person that dropped out or just assume they didn't find anyone as part of the process I was involved in and leave it?

doesn't hurt to try again.

That would suck

I once thought about writing, recording, and sending in a Giant Bomb themed parody of Danny Boy, but it seemed a bit much.

Well

At least I'll finally watch GB Deadly Premonition stuff.

Also thank you everybody for the peptalk.

worst case scenario is that they just throw it in the trash. not much to lose.

Nah loads of people would want this job, I had just assumed someone better got it.

But yeah if I got an interview and no-one got selected regardless it's a pretty harsh burn.

Submit again. If they went with someone else and it fell through, I'd like to say most places would call runner ups, but, that's not usually how it works.

not really man. it's bad hiring to just take the best or only applicant out of a batch. if anything it's probably a sign that they have their shit together as a company. just because you don't fit with them doesn't mean you automatically suck.

yep, not only that but it comes off as kind of desperate of the company to double back.
