How this started
I built this site to learn how to code. It's become my playground for continuing to learn and build.
I wanted a random loadout generator, but the ones out there weren't being maintained. So I had ChatGPT spit out random loadouts for me, which was lame. Then I thought, "what if I built a slot machine version?"
People started finding it through Google. I kept adding to it: meta weapons, patch notes, a World Tour tracker, and Scotty the AI assistant. Now the site gets over 30,000 visits a month.
What this is (and isn't)
- Solo project. I'm the only one working on it.
- No ads. No paywalls. No business behind it. It's for the community, full stop.
- Fast feedback loop. If you send something good, I often ship it the same day or the next.
About me
I'm Paul. I spent 20 years at a Fortune 50 company before walking away to learn to code and build with AI. This site was my first real project.
These days my main project—the thing I work on full-time—is MeritPlaybook, which helps families figure out which colleges will actually give their student merit scholarships and lower the final bill. Same approach as this site: dig into the real data, skip the fluff.
I also built Heritage Whisper, an app for preserving family stories.

If the site's ever saved you a round, buying me a coffee keeps it running.
