Welcome

 
November 2010

At the moment, my days are filled (quite well!) with working on my PhD Thesis which is to be handed in some time in January. Next to this, there's not much time for anything else, not even for working on this website ;( I'll try to keep up with the updates, at least a bit, but I cannot promise anything when and what I'll be able to add things. Once the thesis is handed in, everything should return to normal. So even if it appears to be quiet here, I am still there, just a bit busy. (08.12.2010)

[+] I've uploaded one of the videos I made at the Ring*Con 2010 press conference - Mark talks about being a producer once (.wmv, ~15MB). Please right click and "Save as ...".(28.11.2010)

Another Ring*Con 2010 report (Laro06 - Ring*Con) from which I HAVE to quote: "Let's start with the man who not only have the tie of power, he also has a blood tie. Mark Ferguson. Seriously this man is awesome. This is my second year with Ring*Con and I liked the old Master of Ceremonies Marc B. Lee but Mark Ferguson was much better. He did a great job. And for next year I want him again as MC (uhhh)." This perfectly sums up what everyone thought - Mark did an absolutely marvellous job! (31.10.2010)
