[QUOTE="Li Shenron, post: 1883511, member: 1465"] I think this is just a casual attempt by WotC. They probably realize that the majority of the people who would want to do this "job" for free products is teen-agers (or at best university students) fans of these games. I don't think WotC is seriously looking for professional figures, which might even be countereffective in this hobby: imagine a jacket-and-tie sales rep of D&D with business case, does he look [I]appropriate[/I]? I think they don't even expect applicants to stay reliable on the long run. In any case, this doesn't definitely qualify as a "job". Rather it could be a semi-informal agreement between the person and some WotC higher representative who is well happy not to have to do this himself. Would be nice to know later from the ones who accept to do this, if a real contract is used... Finally a 1000$ sale price is equivalent to what cost for WotC? I guess not more than 200-250$. In the eyes of a kid it sounds like a huge sum, but for even a small company it's crumbs. [Long ago, when I was a child, me & my friends used to bike half an hour to the next village where ice cream costed 50Lire (~3cents) less...] [/QUOTE]
