GlaDos and the Team Fortress announcer are the two greatest voiceovers I think I’ve ever heard. It’s so cool that someone with so much dramatic skill and voice talent was involved in a game. I don’t know how it happened but Valve and Mrs. McLain should be praised.

*I had to check the title for the spelling. :)

An unexpected thing happened while playing Portal. I sort of fell in love with GlaDos. I really didn’t want to kill her at the end. But I did. I did and I’m glad I did because then I got to hear the song. But after I heard the song I was REALLY in love with her. But I couldn’t have heard the song if I hadn’t killed her. And ripped her to pieces. And thrown every piece … into … a fire …

Okay. Thank you.

I noticed that something was off as well, so I mailed Valve about it and received a response from a fellow over there named Jeep Barnett. There’s a post about it on my blog:

Whenever I’m talking to people on the phone and have to tell them my name and say “That’s ‘Iain’ with two ‘i’s…” the letter always comes back addressed to ‘Iian’… I’ve had a few creative mispellings of my surname too (McCafferty), so I always explicitly spell both of names out to people these days.

But the worst is when you send emails to people where your name is clear to see and the replies come back to ‘Ian McCassery”. What’s wrong with these people? Do they not think I can spell MY OWN NAME?

Sorry, this is a bit of a sore topic. ;-)

Yeah, the guys at NOLF thought my name was spelled ‘Lawrie’ hence the name of the character Bruno Lawrie. I accused the writer (I can’t remember HIS name right now, but he’s a hilarious guy) of being subtle by using a different spelling. He said, “How IS it spelled? I’d have spelled it that way if I’d known.”

I’m sure you guys in G. B. understand how hard it is to get a Scottish name spelled correctly.
