User:JackBobDill

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

JackBobDill of Wikipedia is first and foremost a gamer. Although none of the three names in his alias are his real name, he believes that "JackBobDill" is a creative name, and was fun to think about. His current favorite games are:

Halo (XBox) Halo 2 (XBox)** Halo 3 (360)* StarCraft (PC/Mac)* StarCraft: Brood War (PC/Mac)* WarCraft III (PC/Mac)* WarCraft III: The Frozen Throne (PC/Mac)* Mass Effect (360/PC) Gears of War (360/PC)* Command and Conquer 3: Kane's Wrath (360/PC) The Orange Box (360/PC/PS3) Marvel Nemesis: Rise of the Imperfects (PS2) Ninety Nine Nights (360) Spider-Man 2 (GameCube/PS2/XBox) One asterisk (*): Denotes games that are either broken or do not work for his Mac. Two asterisks (**): He no longer has Halo 2, but he still believes that it is a great game.

JackBobDill owns a Macintosh G3, an XBox 360, and a PS2. When StarCraft worked on his Mac, he was a mapmaking fanatic. Even his username was "xX]mapmaker[Xx!" (Minus the quotes and exclamation mark.) He dabbled in making 6-8 player maps such as RPM's (Role-playing Maps, not to be confused with RPG's, which are Roleplaying Games) and Impossible Scenarios, but his true calling was making campaign maps. In the month of March 2008, he released his first multiplayer campaign map, Attack on the Dominion, which took place before Fenix was put into a Dragoon (his first "death"), but after Raynor had seceded from the Dominion. On April 1st, 2008, JackBobDill released his second campaign map, "Attack on the Confederacy," which sported two difficulties (which were seperate maps) and not two, but three-player compadability, and announced that a prequel to Attack on the Dominion was in the works. However, that might as well have been an April Fool's joke, because halfway through he installed Mac OS X and StarCraft refused to work. As such, Attack on Dominion Space (the prequel's title), and whatever plans he had for Attack on the Confederacy never saw the light of day.

It is unclear if JackBobDill will ever return to the mapmaking world, although he says he would like to. He is hoping to get a new computer, this time a PC, and he says "Maybe this time StarEdit will have a working 'create unit(s)' trigger! [laughs]" If you would like to view his maps, check out StarCraft.org and search the Campaign Maps folder.
