    Good luck Adam! he really did worked his ass of to get into Valve.

    Most of the people that say that their dream is work at valve, does almost nothing to achieve it! Adam, is the pure example that when you really dream on something, and you work to achieve it, nothing can stop you.

    Wow, I didn't know about the second or third release. I've still got part 1 installed and unfinished. Got stuck with no idea where to go in the underground area.

    Guess now's as good as any time to restart.

    not really an active user. Amazing level designer though. Even the storyline, provided through txt on the HUD, is excellent.

    The story on the HUD is actually one thing I didn't like. I hate having to stop playing to read a bunch of text. It would have been a bit better with some basic voice acting/radio type thing. Not done playing it yet but so far it's pretty good.

    His map Someplace Else is still one of the best HLSP maps ever.
