Denis Dyack: I'm not stepping down - GameSpot

GameSpot writes:

The rumour mill was in overdrive today that Silicon Knights founder and president Denis Dyack was thinking of resigning as president to concentrate on the more creative side of his job.

The rumour started after GameDaily.Biz printed an article titled 'Denis Dyack To Step Down As Silicon Knights President' based on an interview in which Dyack was quoted as saying, "I've been involved in a lot of IP creation within Silicon Knights and as the company grows, I have to look at whether I want to continue to be president and director, and I'm leaning towards staying creative…So in the end, as the company grows, for my role I'll probably hire someone to be my boss and help run the company."

The news then spread to various other gaming Web sites, including Joystiq as 'Dyack May Step Down as Head of Silicon Knights,' and Kotaku as 'Silicon Knights: Dyack Stepping Down?'

However Dyack has told GameSpot that he has no intention of quitting as president. He said, "I was as surprised to see this as everyone else. I am not stepping down." (Dev, Industry, Too Human, Xbox 360)
