* For those of you who go back to the NEWST (l8r Pumpkin2 & Rts.net) days I don't have to tell you who Cowboy is or his story coming out of the WZ community.
* For those not in the know a quick synopsis: Cowboy came in as a shy, very bright & talented kid who didn't know much to start 'bout codeing but had a passion for trying to curtail cheating in WZ2100 MP.
* Over the years he developed Direct Games with WZ at the heart of his passion - getting stronger & more able in his skills following his passion. Couple a years ago while finishing up his degree (with honors) in one of the most prestigious tech universities in the country, he had an idea to create a company that would allow him to make a living while pursuing the passion that was seeded in WZ MP.
* Well.... meet Brian Chavez aka Cowboy, now a young man on the road to successfull entrepreneurship as President, Founder & Chief Software Architect of http://www.bitarmory.com
* And he still hasn't forgotten WZ...
* Go get them MP cheaters - Cowboy !

* EDIT: Nobody was more passionate about liberating the WZ source than Cowboy (though quite a few shared the same level of commited passion to that end)...
* When the source was finally liberated there was much uncertainty about compiling the first .exe (we'd heard about the many months ordeal the "Homeworld" community had doing just that.)
* Well.... Cowboy rolled up his sleaves and within a few hours, driven with laser focus, he'd dealt with the mess of errors and successfully compiled the first liberated .exe of WZ. And so this journey could begin in earnest.
