About Spencer Hayesone of us since 6:18 PM on 03.10.2010
Nobody really knows what Spencer does. Technically some sort of Community Manager Spencer has also been known to stand in front of cameras and talk to people. Additionally, he's a hot hunk o' man.
Aside from these studly endeavors, Spencer loves indie games in a way that would make most people blush and has played more hours of Pokemon than any one person should.
Apparently ethics statements are a thing we're doing now so I guess I have to put that here:
I'm friends with several indie developers and I worked at Gamestop at one point in my life. I really love hotdogs.
I'm pretty sure those are the only biases I could think to air.
