So, let's say Brad's the Wizard of Ahs, and Keith's the Scarecrow…that would HAVE to make Dave Gilbertson the Tin Man. Ahs (okay, I made up the name) is better known as Vanguard: Saga of Heroes, the breathtakingly beautiful and gleefully anticipated MMO being created, as we speak, by the original team (and friends) who gave us EverQuest.

The first thing I noticed about Dave when I met him at the Vanguard Summit in California in October was the air of confidence and relaxation he had about him. How could this be? Here the whole Sigil office (the company created by Brad McQuaid, CEO, and head honcho at Vanguard) was a-tizzy with 21 reporters tromping through their offices, noisily exclaiming about everything they saw, greedily asking questions, and generally putting the office routine into an uproar.
