So, make sure that you have a look. We'll need some piece work contract stuff done for sure. Uh, but depending on how multi-talented you are, there could be a part-time employee position or even a full-time position available. So, um, guys, do check it out. Unfortunately, we're not really looking for folks outside the Vancouver, Canada region, but do have a look at the list anyway and see if there's anyone you know who would be a good fit. I'm aware of what you're doing. As far as compensation is concerned, these are paid positions, but I want to set realistic expectations. We're a very small company, and starting wages won't really be anything special. You'll find the full details, as well as a checklist of the things we need help with, in the link that is below in the video description. Item number two is for everyone, not just Canadians who live in Vancouver. We are doing a massive worldwide giveaway, folks. The crate computer that we reviewed a little while ago. Yeah, the one with the Core i5 4670K GTX 780, 27in LCD monitor, 500 gig Corsair SSD, and 16 gigs of RAM. We are giving it away. All you have to do is subscribe to my Tequiki channel and leave a comment on the Techquicki video that is linked below. Techquiki is not going to teach you everything there is to know about technology, but I hope that you'll find the content fun and sharable nonetheless. But wait, there's more. I want everyone to know about this giveaway. If you can get another social media influencer, uh, let's say anyone with I pretended I was thinking about it, but it's in the script. Let's say anyone with 10,000 followers on YouTube, Facebook or Twitter to share this video with their followers and give you credit for bringing it to their attention. I will enter each of you, the person who refers the influencer and the influencer into two separate draws each with their own prizes. So, for the one who the influencer credits, there will be a chance to win an ASUS GTX Titan graphics card.

They're in the link in the video description because there are a few things you'll need to do to validate your entry so that I can do the draw correctly and make sure it's fair for everyone. Both giveaways end February 28th. The last thing, item number three, in our 2014 update is really important. For us to achieve the aggressive goals we've set out for ourselves this year, which is more content with better quality across more channels, we will need people, space, equipment, and all kinds of expensive stuff like that. And for that, we will need your help. We've had a lot of people ask us over the years if we take donations or contributions. Many many content creators do.

And I think there must be one other thing because otherwise I don't know why you're even here other than to mock me. So, I'm I'm leaving and I'll let you cover update item number four. So update item number four, which in my opinion doesn't necessarily matter more or less than the other ones, but apparently he doesn't care as much, is the Linus Tech Tips conglomerate, which is currently the eighth largest faction organization thing in all of Star Citizen. We just passed Red Faction, aka Reddit faction, which is actually really cool, although we do love those guys. And once we get 100 more members, we'll be third in the world in terms of size, which is actually pretty epic. Our activity levels are pretty insane as well as we're ranked number one or two. We kind of bounce back and forth for activity which is really interesting. The chat is super active and on the forum we post a ton. I think we're at like 27 pages right now. So whether or not you're in the organization, if you just want to talk about Star Citizen, come visit us on the forum. We can talk there.
