Bonnie Armstrong Promoted to UO Producer
Earlier today it was announced that the Associate Producer for Ultima Online, Bonnie “Mesanna” Armstrong, was promoted to the Producer for Ultima Online:
Bonnie ‘Mesanna’ Armstrong has become the Producer for Ultima Online. Together with Jeff Skalski, who continues his role as Ultima Franchise Producer, she will now take an even more active lead of all topics around our longest running MMO. Bonnie’s drive, dedication and knowledge of UO, together with her motivation to kill players (in-game) are well known in the office and among players.
Of course this raises some questions about the directions Bonnie is going to take, questions you might ask on the boards. Apart from a “Yeah yeah yeah” song we weren’t able to get an initial statement yet – but we shall have one in the near future.
Congratulations, Bonnie. Let’s lead UO through an exciting 15th anniversary and into the future.
She’s one of the longest serving members of the Ultima Online team, with a long list of credits:
- Ultima Online Third Dawn – External Lead Tester
- Ultima Online Lord Blackthorn’s Revenge – External Lead Tester
- Ultima Online Age of Shadows – External Lead Tester
- Ultima Online Samurai Empire – External Lead Tester
- Ultima Online Mondain’s Legacy – External Lead Tester
- Ultima Online 9th Anniversary – Test Lead
- Ultima Online Kingdom Reborn – Test Lead
- Ultima Online Stygian Abyss – Associate Development Manager
Did you do the math yet? That means she’s been working on UO for over 11 years, and that also means she’s been devoted to UO for over 11 years, because I’m sure she’s had numerous opportunities to take other positions within EA and elsewhere.
Congratulations and I look forward to hearing about her future plans for UO.
