Article from Boing Boing on Matrix Online. Create a company that specializes in providing players like these 20 mentioned who are A) not only game-savvy all around but 2) good at improv so they can further the game and make play better for everyone. Then get contracts from these MMORPGs to go and work the walls on that shit. Would you be able to do it full time? Not yet, but isn't the point just to have a cool job like that? Just think of your resume if you're an actor. "Well, last summer I was Laertes in 'Hamlet in the Park,' while I also logged four hundred hours as Muad'Dib in Dune Online." And, like Broadway, when players start to drift away, you bring them back with a big name. "This week in Heroes Megaverse Online, Sam Jackson will be playing the role of Badass Supervillain Who Will Kill You Dead." There you go. Free idea. Just remember me when you're rich and famous. "Crazy, am I? We'll see whether I'm crazy or not." Filed under: General BS
