normally is it true that most business or science people hate this game and art and design people love this game?
I'm a sciency type: A mechanical engineer. You'll notice I turn playing the game into a science. Where does that put me?
jrd:
Heh.
I'm an IT guy who currently does systems administration, and I am unable to socialize around people (Asperger's syndrome). I have no art skills I know of.

I've never heard of this. Is this one of those new diseases they made up now? Sounds like a load of bolognium to me. I think you're just talking to the wrong people. Although I similarly lack art skills. Unless you count finger-painting with the blood and entrails of my enemies as an art skill.
Believe me, if I actually *HAD* art skills, you'd be seeing more totally awesome stuff. So who wants to volunteer their skills of an artist?

Asperger's syndrome can be described as a mild form of autism. Primarily, the difficulty with social situations. It's a well documented disorder. One of those things that falls under the category of "Random crap I pick up from books."
I'm both, actually. For a while I was really into science, then I got into writing, which I still do, but now I'm into mathematics. Particularly complexity theory and emergence. Emergent game design, particularly. I like computers, and am teaching myself Java. I'm also fairly good at drawing, and am a decent computer modeller--except that the program I use, Animation Master, uses a file format completely foreign to basically every other program ever made. Augh.

I think this sounds more like "creative bullshitting", personally. Them psychological types, they love to label everything. Everything's gotta have a label. People can't just be "an idiot", "a whacko", or "a loser" anymore, you know? Now they gotta clinically define why somebody is a loser. Pssh.

Good. Learn some more useful program, and maybe you can be more useful than Rentech.
