It's Not Trivial To Me
I need contestants for my new game show called "It's Not Trivial To Me". I like to think of it as an online game show for off-centered people.
I need my contestants to have:
1) a Skype connection with video (if they want to go bother a friend and use theirs, fine.)
2) an ability to understand dry Midwestern American English (from me) and
3) something that they wish to share with the rest of the world, which I'll explain in more detail to those who are interested; see below.
Players will get a small "thank you for playing" gift (probably a gift card for a few downloadable songs, etc.) and the potential to win the LARGEST NON TANGIBLE GIFT IN GAME SHOW HISTORY! (And yeah, I'll have to explain that one, too.)
What my contestants-to-be don't need is to travel to another city, or stand in a parking lot (oops, car park, sorry) or audition as wannabe "contestant number 1,000,0005" and talk to some contestant coordinator whose eyes are glazing over by the time you show up.
You also don't need to be in the UK, either; I may have an American playing against someone from the UK, or maybe an Aussie or two. And Canadians & New Zealanders are always lurking about as well.
People should also feel free to pass this on to someone who might be interested.
I'd like prospective contestants to give me their Skype information, basic info about themselves, best times to contact them (GMT, CDT, etc.) and their favourite letter of the alphabet to: itsnottrivialtome@gmail.com
