Chris 'Pwyff / Chrispers' Tom

Pwyff enjoys needlessly long introductions

Often referred to as a "hip cat" by friends, families, and adversaries for reasons unknown. Prior to taking up the role of Editor-in-Chief of ZAM Network, Chris "Pwyff" Tom was a competitive World of Warcraft 3v3 arena Druid who also maintained the greatest blog in the world, "The Ooglar." These days, Pwyff is a big fan of eSports, MMORPGs, online games, MOBAs, mech garage games, fighting games, and oxford commas. Some of Pwyff's favorite games include: Natural Selection, Pokemon, Final Fantasy XI, Armored Core 3 (& Silent Line), Ragnarok Online, Dark Souls / Demon Souls, Guilty Gear XX, League of Legends, Bloodline Champions, Ogre Battle, Lufia II, and Tetris. If you hear Pwyff trash talking excessively in your video games, please do not consider his actions as being representative of ZAM Network, and please do not tattle on Pwyff, because Pwyff will put you on his not-friends list (which can be an inconvenience). Pwyff enjoys talking about himself in third person.

Gaming is a passion of mine not just because it's enjoyable but because it is a rare medium that combines player agency with narrative structure. We all play games differently but at the end of the day we can still come together to share in our collective experience. Gaming focuses on the shared adventure, and I think this is a good thing. Outside of playing video games and being professionally obnoxious, I am a professional screenwriter and an obscure creative writer. Please appreciate me, because I am like an egg: hard on the outside, delicious on the inside, and terrible for your heart when consumed in excess.
