This is a reply to a job I applied for 3 weeks ago, apperantly I had some skills that I was unaware of.
BTW certain web addresses were omitted, due to me not wanting to broadcast private info all over the net.

I remember I once turned down Croteam, who's CEO personally emailed me if I wanted to work on Serious Sam for them. I glanced at the project (which didn't look very promising yet and was thrown off by spelling errors in the email) - turned it down. All of a sudden, SS gets big!
