TBCS is seeking writers

[Rankenphile]

TheBestCaseScenario.com is currently looking for experienced modders willing to volunteer writing services for a currently undisclosed project. Volunteers must have extensive knowledge of at least one particular field of modding, have accurate and legible technical writing skill and be willing to donate an hour or two from time to time on a project that will benefit the entire modding community.

If you are interested, please submit a short writing sample (300 words tops, please) to rankenphile (at) gmail dot com. Writing sample can be about any topic, but must demonstrate some technical knowledge about modding, working with a particular tool or building material, design or fabrication. Please include your real name, your forum login name (NOT your password, just your login name please) and alternative methods of contact (skype, IM, etc). All volunteers must be registered as a member of the TBCS forums.

Thank you.

Bump-a-lump.

If you haven't seen this yet do it now. Thanks to everyone who has allready send stuff in! Rankenphile is moving house this week so if it's taking a while to reply then try sending it to me. My e-mail is in my sig, or you can also try warndave@googlemail.com .

C'mon, TBCS NEEDS YOU!

EDIT: Didn't notice this was stickied. Guess the bump a lump was unecessary.

What if someone (such as me) isn't a modder (yet) but wants to help out? Should I still attempt to apply?

[Rankenphile]

Absolutely. It isn't about modding, per se, as much as general knowledge about modding techniques, tools, materials, etc.

[DaveW]

Even if you just know your way around hardware and software, send us something. ;)

Is this open to modders from other sites as well? (as it's for the community) Because Geno said he would be willing to help, and he of course has all the skills, and can write.

And wait till you see what he is bringing to QuakeCon ;)

[DaveW]

I think so. I'll ask Rankenphile. We need the writers, so probably.

-Dave

[Rankenphile]

yes, absolutely. this is in no way limited to TBCS members, although they will need to create a profile with TBCS to participate.

If you guys have friends who may be interested, let us know.

Thanks!

I would love to help out, I don't have a lot of exprience (per se) but I do consider myself pretty knowlegable about modding tequniques, tools and stuff, I guess I'll send you something when I have time (school work takes up most of my time these days :mad: ).

[progbuddy]

I'm still working on my first project, but I have experience w/ tools and stuff, as well as tips & cheap ways to make a computer look awesome. I am able to do most everything (and i can get cheap plexi :D lol) and I have a few PC stores near me.

[Rankenphile]

This is still open, if anyone is interested. Send an email to DaveW or I.

I have extensive experience airbrushing.
I'm not sure if this is what you are looking for.
I could do a series of how to type articles.

I haven't modded anything besides some fan controllers and LED's, but I can write very well (my teachers say im at college level though im a sophmore in high school) and I know a lot of different fields of computers. If you still need help I'm willing. I have a lot of good ideas, but as I said I haven't modded anything per se.

[ESX]

I dont know A LOT about modding, but I sure like writing stuff. Would I do any good?

[DaveW]

Sorry, i probably should have closed this one. I think we've finished taking on people for this project at the moment, and have a full ship all round now.

I'll go close the other threads and un-sticky them too. Thanks to everyone who sent us messages, and to everyone who's been waiting for this, well, i sure hope this is worth all the waiting you've been doing!
