[[Image:Visit-aug07-9.jpg|thumb|300px|right|Lunching at Flagship Studios, August 2007.]]I began working on this website in the summer of 1998 (yes, that long ago) when my interest in Diablo I and Hellfire brought me to Elly's old D1/HF site, long before she'd secured the diabloii.net domain name. That site was very basic and just hosted on an extension of a gaming cafe she ran, but it was the only decent online source of Hellfire information, and when I started sending in emails with comments and corrections, Elly was always quick to reply and update the info. It wasn't too much longer before Blizzard North announced that they were working on Diablo II, and as I read the pre-game info and saw the early cinematics, I grew more and more interested in the title. | [[Image:Visit-aug07-9.jpg|thumb|300px|right|Lunching at Flagship Studios, August 2007.]]I began working on this website in the summer of 1998 (yes, that long ago) when my interest in Diablo I and Hellfire brought me to Elly's old D1/HF site, long before she'd secured the diabloii.net domain name.

WoW or not, there will be a Diablo sequel at some point, and you'll be able to count on this website, or some future version of it, to cover the game like no one else. | WoW or not, there will be a Diablo sequel at some point, and you'll be able to count on this website, or some future version of it, to cover the game like no one else. | ||

'''February 2008:''' In real life I'm a recent college graduate, a applying grad student, and an aspiring novelist. I separated from Malaya, the girlfriend I moved up here to live with, in late 2006, but I still live in the North Bay, about 15 miles north of San Francisco and 30 miles north of the old Blizzard North offices. Since 2002 I've maintained [http://www.blackchampagne.com a personal website] that features my writing, a daily blog, and years and years of wandering discourse on news, human psychology, politics, culture, and much more. | |||
