GameBanshee visitors,

I've been contacted by a major computer game publisher (whom I cannot name at this time), and they have asked me to post the following for any of you RPG/MMORPG fans in the Los Angeles area. It sounds like a pretty good "in" for any of you looking to aid in computer game development:

------------------------------------

A major PC game publisher is looking for hardcore MMORPG fans in the Los Angeles area to attend a focus group session. Applicants should be able to get to a location close to Los Angeles Airport (LAX) on Wednesday, April 30th by 6PM. Experience of dice-based fantasy role playing games is advantageous but not essential.

Please send your name, age, gender and telephone number (day and evening) to: recruit@mmrcinc.com and be sure to enter "MMO Games" in the subject line.

If you match specified criteria, a member of Meczka Marketing Research/Consulting, Inc., will contact you for a brief telephone interview.

Your input could help define and shape the future of MMORPGs!

------------------------------------

@Buck:
Would you see if they're interested in doing a similar focus group in the area of the Ohio River valley coal fields or rural Appalachia (rednecks buy CRPGs and MMORPGs, too), please?

The idea of MMORPG set in East LA sounds fascinating, I'll admit. I'd love to see a barrio wizard zapping fire hydrants, or some mother superior conjuring state funds.

Or how about orcs cruising through Beverly Hills, Rodeo Drive, and Venice Beach? What would happen when they get to Hollywood?

They'd get lost among the throng of other bizarre, freakish phenomena that lives there.

You have to be currently paying for a service, not even if you have in the past. They called me hours after I sent the email. Bummer. I kinda wanna sign up to a MMO then email 'em back.
