Hi there!
Well, I found out about this wonderful campaign by pure chance.
Just my laptop died and I had to remove the dust from my old
one. I always preferred single-player games ( I also suck at
almost all competitive online games) and I had a few weeks to
enjoy some old games and my attention turned to warcraft3. What
can I say? Nostalgia is a powerful weapon. This is a great
campaign, keep up the good work!
Okay, now about myself...
Age - around ~25, currently in Toronto and employed as software
developer - just making some new iphone apps.
P.S. Actually, I never had a chance to try warcraft3 editor but
I have a huge background in programming languages, so I can help
with the development if you let me.

Hello there. So you decided to do as I suggested. We have a
programmer here and I think you will be a great member of the
forum 'cuz we are lacking map-makers these days. You can start
by learning JASS if you want to take up map-making.
Anyways a cheerful welcome from me.

Hey and welcome to the site.
So now we have a real expert in our side who actually knows
about coding. I just know very little about coding because I
hardly need it for anything. I just use the very simple Warcraft
3 'coding' language.
I'm not sure how you could actually help me. Maybe you have an
idea?
At the moment I'm searching for:
- Someone who could do a better map for the loading screens.
- Campaign loading screen(a wc3 model).
- Promoting videos and pictures

Who says GUI can't make a good spell ? If you know how to do it
correctly then the spell is only limited by your imagination.
TCO is an obvious proof of using simple codes to make a great
campaign. JASS is indeed a powerful tool but it is also very
complex, not mentioning hard to master. That's why we will need
a guy like xecles to master it.

"Currently in Toronto", so does that mean you're temporarily
living in there or is it just that you've been there for a long
time and will perhaps be moving somewhere else in the future?

I've been here for couple of years. I'm looking for a job
connected with developing firmware or AI, so if there's an
opportunity - I'll go for it, even if I'd have to move from
Toronto.

From the top of my head I can say that I can help you with
gameplay mechanics, scripting events and triggers, and AI.

Also, I think I can do that too.

Let's see... First we must discuss what sucks in the campaign,
what can be made better and how we do it.
Who will start?

I have a complain - regular enemies are too weak, you are
steamrolling through them from one boss to another without using
any abilities at all. (especially with siphon)
For example -- I started on "hard" difficulty my first time and
bosses were challenging (well, mostly I was getting used to
their attack patterns and abilities), then I encountered a bug
at chapter 4 and was forced to use "give up" option. I got 10k
additional gold for my next start.
Now I've chosen "hard" difficulty once again and first 5
chapters (even all bosses) was a walk in the park with this new
expensive equipment I bought.
And loading times....grrrr....
Just a random rant, don't pay too many attention to it.

Okay, so there's a problem with balance. In the next version
enemies are bit stronger(more hp), but I believe that won't be
enough. Maybe I should add them more abilities or something?

You know, that ruinic stone (Stone golem on Terdoom castle) Is
so powerful. Doesn't challenge him.
Can you decreas his ability?
