"Gamesmaster want a new Staff Writer/Reviewer"

But of course, they're based in the bloody south west aren't they? Sounds like a job I could get used to - playing games for most of the week, writing reviews and articles for the rest of it. Also, getting sent to upcoming gaming events throughout the globe.

That's what it says in the advertisement anyway. The pay certainly isn't spectacular though, not that I would imagine it would stop this sort of job being snapped up in five minutes.

Always fancied having a crack at being paid to be a couch potato, guess I'll have to wait for the next golden opportunity :(

EDIT : I put this in General Chat originally, but thought I'd stick it in here too, as I know some of you avoid that forum like a rabid dog.

Gamesmaster reviewer wanted.

Qualifications needed:
English (Language, Literature and Text Speak)
General Science (for making tea)

Also required:
Low Mental Age
Ability to talk down to people
Ability to take bribes/free lunches from publishers in return for good reviews.
Ability to use the same joke 50 times over the space of one issue.

£13000-£14000.

Haha.

Bath isn't South West. It's the nether region inbetween Wales and the Midlands and Hamp/Wiltshire

I've sent my CV. Too bad it's really, really, balls.

Bloody Bath - too far away that is. Don't these people accept freelancers?

It's in Bath, home of Future Publishing. From first hand experience, you wouldn't want to work there permanently; the office blocks are cramped, bits and bobs are everywhere, and it smells a bit off - like the smell of old people mized with computer stuff.

I think their HQ is situated in Bath.

I live in the SW.

But I'm probably not old enough :(.

If I lived in the South West, I would have most definitely applied.

Damn this none publishing house endowed region.

If I wasn't going to Uni in a few weeks, I would have applied for it a few weeks ago when I saw the opening. But thanks guys.
