[rules-users] Do you love to play Magic The Gathering? (Renton, WA) (Job Posting)

[Greg Barton]

Hey, I've got a first edition magic deck in a box somewhere.  Maybe I should dust it off and apply. :P

I'd be interested to see if they find someone qualified, especially given the first three requirements. (Essentially, an expert in the game and an active user of their game site.)  The req is the intersection of some small sets: (Active user or their site)^(pro level player of their game)^(experienced rules developer/architect)^(available to work part time)

Good luck to them. :)
