Companies need people that are able to break their stuff wide open. then they'll have their help point out how to break it open to prevent future people from doing it.

Congrats dude...you have fulfilled the dream of many people who chose a not so great reason to go into programming/computer science. I hope the people at valve treat their programmers better than they do at EA...

Heh, that's often because it's easier to hire people who hack your stuff to make it hack-proof than to let them stay out in the wild and continue to break your security.

You should read up on the history of many famous hackers / crackers... a lot of them end up working in big companies due to what they did in their youth.

I have passed on your resume to the web developers. (I am not a web developer.) So it’s out of my hands and I cannot promise anything!


Now to just remember to breathe occasionally.

No pressure or anything, but we're all counting on you with this.

Otherwise, the universe as we know it is doomed. Just saying.

If I had a jealousy scale it would be reading somewhere between a million, and the highest you can count.

And it would probably be higher than that possibly

In any case, that's wicked cool, and wish the best of luck with this.

Congratulations on being one of (what I imagine to be) the lucky few who are selected this way. Hopefully everything works out to the best and you end up with a bitchin' job that you can make big loafs of bread with and brag about
