Play Quiz Bowl is Hiring Trash Writers

Post by InvadErGII »

Play Quiz Bowl, the company now in charge of ACRONYM, is hiring writers for the next iteration of that tournament, as well as for some additional pop-culture projects that haven't been announced yet. If you'd like to make a little cash by contributing to a great and popular question set, you can find more details here.

I don't want to write for ACRONYM, but I may be interested in writing for some of the other projects. When will details about those be posted?

After discussing it with potential collaborators, I'd like to add that we're looking to produce the following sets within the next couple of years:

- ACRONYM X (first events in February 2017)
- A second, harder ACRONYM, hopefully an annual occurrence (summer 2017)
- TOEJAM 2 (all video games, TBA)
- A (probably all-tossup) tournament entirely about the 1990's (TBA)
- A very hard, all-music set (TBA)

While the top two are the biggest priorities, the theme sets will depend a bit more on what prospective writers want to do. As before, if something catches your eye, drop me a line.
