Astounding levels of leadership. That's what you bring. So I'm not worried.
That's right. You can also expect, I've been talking a lot to PR lately, you can expect a lot of conversations with more folks at Blizzard, some familiar people, some newer people that no one's really met in this way before.

And it turns out it's a good thing I did because I don't think anybody was going to do this if we didn't have some sort of mutual agreement on who was going to interview and that sort of thing.

They're at Blizzard whenever it's needed for their various games and whatnot. Of course, right now, a lot of WoW stuff happening there. But the interview happened. If you haven't seen it, go to the Warcraft YouTube channel. It's currently, I think, the most recent video.
