Beware young developers in search of a job, Tim Langdell is trying to recruit you! Those who have followed the saga of Edge Games and Tim Langdell know that Langdell is desperately attempting to demonstrate to the USPTO that his company is active in order to avoid losing his fraudulently-obtained trademarks. Publisher EA is currently working to have those trademarks cancelled and, if there is justice in the world, EA will succeed. You are urged to review the recent history of Edge Games/Tim Langdell, archived here: http://chaosedge.wordpress.com/ http://www.tigsource.com/pages/edge-games Here are some of Langdell's recent listings: http://losangeles.craigslist.org/sgv/sof/1437284769.html http://losangeles.craigslist.org/sgv/sof/1448178319.html http://www.telecommutejoblist.com/game-company-seeks-completed-iphone-games-and-iphone-programmers-pasadena It's very important that you do not reply to Edge Games ads, nor attempt to get work from him. Please warn your friends and colleagues who may not have heard about him yet. If you want a game job, look on a LEGITIMATE game job site like Gamasutra. EDGE GAMES IS A ONE-MAN SCAM OPERATION, NOT A TRUE PUBLISHER OR DEVELOPER. [Edited by - sebastianjames on November 4, 2009 4:48:45 PM]

How do you know it's them?

I have to admit that it sure looks like him. The constant capitalization of "EDGE", the fact that no real skills are needed (you can see that they say things like "-blank- is good, but not required" over and over), and no real requirements are added.

Trying to add some value to his company in regards to the Mobigames case?

but that isn't a reason to not apply and potentially get an interview. Then you could see for yourself what he has in development and make an informed decision instead of avoiding him like the plague based on the hatred he receives on the internet.

Doesn't Langdell also have a history of cheating employees out of their pay?

You would be referring to the time he moved to a completely different country (the US) to avoid paying developers he worked with in the UK, even after they sued Langdell's company and won. I don't know how that works, but that's the story.
