Get Paid to Play Games or Teach Them?

Posted on: January 12th, 2007 No Comments

I am in the process of forming my own consulting company and looking for small and large jobs. I normally spend a couple of minutes a day quickly going through cragislist for Computer Gigs.

Today I came across 2 that took me off guard. I saw some student from Columbia wanting to pay $30 for a 3 hour Tutor on how to pwn on CS(Counter-Strike).

CS is a multiplayer online first person shooter. I spent a couple of weeks playing this online about a year ago. I have not seen a posting for “help” for this game in terms of “pwning”. I do not think this post on craigslist is “fake”, but I do think some n00bies who dies a lot gets frustrated and want to pwn others who kill him.

While continuing with my review of Gigs, I also found a cool job at 2k. Playtest BioShock and get a free 2k game of your choice. So for 3 days of your time, you get a 2k game of your choice. Maybe if I had free time I would jump on it, but I my time is getting close to the cost of the game. Especially 3 days, then it would be worth my time to just to buy it.
Anyway, I know there people who read this blog, maybe then need a new game and are still looking for work.

Enjoy!
