Trading: 15 Minutes of Fame

[micker]

I'm looking for a few successful Entropia players who would like to be profiled in an upcoming book on RCE (Real Cash Economy) Video Games.

If you are interested, send the following information to patrick@hfconcepts.com

1)Your name
2)Avatar name
3)Your in game profession and some of the successes that you've had in game
4)What sets you apart? Why should you be profiled in this book?

All interviews will be done using Skype software and will take place during the month of September.

Thanks for your interest!

I'm interested in a variety of players, not just "superstars".

I've successfully pissed away a ton of cash in EU.

Come to think of it, by that standard, I'd say I was probably more successful than 99% of the players in the game.

Does that count?

Errr well, if I gave away the details on how I profit then it would ruin it for me since everybody would start doing it (if they had the patience) and I would no longer profit doing it....Though I could put it simply, I profit through eco hunting

Had big ups, downs, seen a lot, done a lot in the little over two years here. .. lots of great ppl though and maybe try the who's who articles for ideas too

Think so.

Sorry, but I keep my secrets...

I'd say it doesnt count, if only because there isnt an email from you in the mailbox. Had you decided to send it I would have said yes, it does count.

Rather than try and contact those avatars and convince them to be interviewed, I'm trying to just work with players that want to be interviewed.

It was only a joke, but that brings up a good question. What do you consider "successful"? Does it only involve making profits? Or is it more of a general reaching your goals kind of thing?

It would really be nice to hear stories from players who successfully created businesses in and around EU that didn't involve eco-hunting, loot, or being an auction whore. You would think there must be a few by now.
