Now Hiring! Several Jobs Available!
There are three jobs open right now:

Bounty Hunter - I'm offering a b50,000 award for Abe's head. There's a b5,000 bonus if you bring him in alive.

Bodyguard - I'm looking for six bodyguards. I want big, imposing men. I want people built like Uncle Uber. You will get your choice of gold-plated iron chain mail, plate armor, broadswords, daggers, bows, spears, and any other weapon you can think of this side of a catapult. Pay is b120 a day, as well as free health and life insurance.

Reporter - I want to bring new people into the news establishment. I'm setting up the News Guild, which will be a group of people who will write up, well, new reports (duh). I'm going to talk to UnOrthOdOx about making this a part of the Gazette; however, this is not going to be like the Gazette at all. It will be more like the War Academy, in that the stories will be posted in News Guild: threads. Also, they will (or should) be posted at most the day after the event occured. There will be no "Saturday Edition" type things.

about the bounty hunter thing-i dont know...

bodyguard-i need some myself

reporter- i like your idea, but instead of people just posting news all the time, it should be integrated into the gazette, in a daily or bi-daily edition

Ohh, now your complaining about the Saturday edition! WELL....

Good luck, I have been unable to find reporters myself. I fear that your proposal will put me out of business, though, if they beet us to all the stories there will be little point to the paper. I like the Saturday/Wed edition as it give ME a break Sunday-teusday where I can sit back and let Tass worry about following everything.

I would like to see a Gazette for every chat, however. The Sat/Wed WAS every chat once upon a time...


There is also going to be a NewZupdate thread every week beginning each Wed or Thurs. I will make a report, then allow for the public to refine it before I notify the gOds on Saturday.

Next turn we will likely head into the medieval ages, and Greece is already there. Monotheism is but a heartbeat away after that.

I'd apply for one of these jobs, but I am unfortunately unable to do anything on the mainland at the time (I'm about 150 miles out at sea at the moment).

UnOrthOdOx - I'm not complaining at all about the Saturday Edition. The News Guild is actually NOT roleplaying - it's meant to fill a niche currently unoccupied. This would be more like TV news channels.

Well, I can say that more info would be usefull. Even game info. Not to degrade the executive reports, but they are not always thurough. IE, they never mentioned Babylon finishing a wonder, nor do they mention the little survey's (8 most ________ nations of the world) that pop up (unless that is turned off?). Info I have speifically asked for to no avail. Would make it easier on me having a central location to look.

Mr. Skywalker,
Here’s the Abe’s head. I cooked him with a garnish of potatoes, onions, tomatoes and broccoli. It’s an old family’s recipe. Btw, I hope you like broccoli, Mr. Skywalker... This goes very well with that wonderful French red wine.
Err… about my reward… no check, please. I prefer cash.

No need to count, Mr. Skywalker. I trust you...
Let me see... one, two, three... Wow! I'm rich!!!!
I think I’m going to open a restaurant. I may call it… Aro’s.
Next week, our special will be “Joan’s head flambé with mushroom sauce”. Delicious!

You didnt ask for this..... but ... er... would you happen to need a ... companion, or escort if you will? I could arrange to pimp one for you through my now flourishing "Kman's Escort Eneterprise" (copy right, official trade mark, all rights reserved). Who needs bodygaurds when you got a woman... or 2... or 8... But dont let me get presumptuous, if it is male company that you would prefer, I could arrange that too.
The going rate is b20 per hour for basic escorts, b50 for midline models, and b100 per hour for the top of the line. Your only buying time, remember, nothing more. My employees work on tips.
