Making $100 a day was pretty nice (this was right after freshman year of college), but standing at a press for 10 hours a day was absolutely miserable. | ||

I know when I would upload VoDs for AHGL through an FTP client it could take a little while. | ||

There's an online test that is offered (once? twice?) a year for a few times during a ~1 week period. If you score well + they like whatever other info you submit you get invited for a chance for a play test-interview thing (self funded outside of some minor expenses I believe), and then they pick people for the actual show from that. EDIT: Looks like you just missed the latest online test period which happened on Jan. 7 - 9. IIRC the online test is 50 questions similar to those you'd find on the actual show. | ||

Just only listen to advice from curi, monk, Trump, and Cixah and you're golden. :D On January 18 2014 00:53 jcarlsoniv wrote: Low quality posts aren't exclusive to LiquidHearth lol.
