Operation Sports has obviously changed over the last few months, but even as we grow and become more of a "press site" no one forgets who made this site what it is today -- you all. With that in mind basically we want you guys to have your own voice outside of what the staff provides on the front page and through the various events we attend.
In other words we want the community to be able to have some special access to these games and the people who make these games that we as press aren't allowed to have (due to conflict of interest etc.) So we hope to find 2-3 people for each specific game, who would then be willing to go and see a certain title then come back and report to the community.
Don't nominate yourself, and basically you want to pick the people who you think know the game well, will ask the community's questions, and will try to give you guys all the info you desire when they return. Also remember these guys represent the OS community, so pick ones who will represent the community with pride.
After we send along the specific names for the games, we as a staff will have NO contact with you -- you will be completely out of our jurisdiction, and will speak just directly with the company about attending events and so forth.
Hopefully you guys will appreciate this opportunity and make the best of it!

- All expenses are paid (hotel, travel, food -- which usually is at the hotel or at a nearby restaurant). The only expense you probably will have to pay is a taxi to the hotel and to the airport.
- These events tend to be three days (2 days for travel, the middle day to check the game out) -- obviously some will have trouble getting time off from work or school etc. that's why we want a few names at least.
- This is an EA Canada game so obviously you need a passport as well.
