The Omniscient Eye, the regular Pyramid feature which gives real-world
answers to gaming questions (Is a secret
headquarters for my arch-villain plausible? And where are the flying
cars?) is still looking for experts to expand coverage on a number
of subjects.
What we want are qualified experts in some field of
endeavor or study. You should be a working professional (current or
former) or have significant academic credentials in your area. We're
good on mathematics, computers, physical sciences, and medicine.
However, we're very interested in hearing from experts in "softer"
subjects: law and government (police officers, lawyers, civil
servants, diplomats, politicians, public policy advisors, private
investigators), business (bankers, corporate executives, specialists
in manufacturing and production), and social sciences and humanities
(psychologists, historians, anthropologists, experts in literature and
the arts). And we're always interested in experts in any field with
practical application. Are you an expert in air traffic control?
Industrial manufacturing systems? Wilderness survival? Civil
engineering? We can find a use for you.
If you're interested in becoming an expert and answering the
occasional question for the Eye, send your name, email address, and a
brief summary of your expertise to the Omniscient Eye feature editor Matt Riggsby at iron.llama@gmail.com.
And, of course, we're always ready to answer questions, too.
The Omniscient Eye seeks to answer questions that are tied to
knowledge of the real world, providing information with a perspective
that is of use to gamers. The Omniscient Eye does not concern itself
with specific game systems or statistics. Do you have a question for
the Omniscient Eye? Feel free to send it to
pyramidquestions@yahoogroups.com, and the Omniscient Eye might answer
it!
