Yes.. but I want to work for magic if I can but I don't want to send my resume and don't fulfill the first three items.. sound like ordered by importance.. <br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Mon, Aug 10, 2009 at 12:00 PM, James Owen <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:jco2009@att.net">jco2009@att.net</a>></span> wrote:<br>

As a point of interest, I checked and the first three requirements are<br>
set in concrete. As are the other requirements.<br>
<br>
This is much like companies who want a rulebase guru AND accredited<br>
DBA AND Unix guru AND Web Applications guru AND ... Well, then list<br>
just goes on and on. This is the list of items given to HR as<br>
"probably has" and gets interpreted as "must have" qualities and skills.<br>
<br>
On the other hand, considering all of the programmers in the world<br>
today, and using set theory, the probability of finding a match is<br>
pretty good. BUT, would that person want to work for Magic? The 3rd<br>
one is the catch: Pro Tour player or Magic Judge. Now, would this<br>
person put their tour on hold to go work on rules for Magic? This<br>
means that they probably would not be qualified to play any more since<br>
they are now part of the "inner circle" of Magic.<br>
