He also created a homepage, as his alter-ego, Ted "Theodore" Dudebrough, co-star of Telltale's first game, which provided an amusing peek into the mind of his character, complete with all of the humorously bad page design decisions so common in personal pages of the early internet.
I noticed that the original website, dudebrough.com, was available to purchase so I scooped it up and brought it back in all of its original splendor.
I'd like to give a special thanks to Telltale's community media manager, Caroline Liddick, who gave me permission to bring back this site through the archival efforts of my WE Computers Museum.She's also graciously given me permission to bring back other gems from Telltale's early years, which should be returning sometime this summer.

Love it! What happened to Brendan Q Ferguson anyway? Or Trow Mollander?
Brendan left the games industry to do charity work. Was a great guy.

I love that you brought this back. The kidnapping message at the top was related to a newspaper article in the Sam & Max Season One case file, which teased the birthday mariachis from Season Two. (I believe the article, in the Alien Love Triangle Times, talks about an alien abducting someone in Las Vegas from a poker tournament, on their birthday? I can't remember anymore.)
Oh, yeah. I remember that, but I couldn't remember where it came from - and I didn't know it was foreshadowing Season Two - that's awesome.
Luckily I still have my Season One Case File. I'll scan the newspaper clipping, shortly, but in the meantime:

Alien involvement suspected
What started as a simple trip to the City of Sin has turned into a months-long vigil for the friends and family of Theodore Dudebrough, 23, who has vanished without a trace in an apparent alien abduction. The young man, shown above in an undated family photo, was last seen on February 19, 2005 rising through the roof of a Las Vegas taqueria in a pulsing beam of light. He has not been heard from since.

(in case anyone's wondering, there is no A5.)
Wow it didn’t even mention it was Dudebrough’s birthday. Weird. We messed up. Maybe at that point all we knew was that they were mariachi who traveled through time and space, but the birthday thing wasn’t there yet (or Doug and Emily and I didn’t know about it yet). I remember Heather Logas really wanted to do a mariachi alien autopsy sequence but I can’t remember any details now.
Great Scott! It's like I've just got out of a time machine!
