I'm seriously considering this.

Would it be possible to get a car rental and gas coverage instead of a flight though? I'm in Ottawa, and it'd only be a ~9 hr drive, and cost about the same.

I was a WCG Referee for quite number of years, but I'm more interested in the Graphic Design position. Hmmmm....

I'm working in all business related classes this semester, so I'm just straight up telling them that I'm missing class if I somehow managed to get a spot in this. Best part is they probably would approve if I applied their class to it somehow

I applied. Man... I really hope I get the job. I feel like I'm one of those guys who have come to the point in their lives where they really need to do "something". I feel like this may be it. I have college but hell I'm willing to give up a few days for an opportunity like this.

;_; Shouldn't get my hopes up, quite sure that the competition is fierce.

wow this is very interesting, i have some extra vacation days to burn for the year, and i love playing sc2 and craps :D

Is this a first come first serve basis or will you have a deadline then consider all applicants? I may want some time to think about it if it's deadline applicants.

For everyone asking when you'll be notified, we're working on it. We got hundreds of applications, which is terrific, but making these decisions will take some time. Thanks for your patience!

In the words of a very famous interviewer:
Excellent.

Thanks for the update.
