Are you a wannabe news-hound?

Do you have what it takes to do a bit of quantum level decryption of that HoloFac sent between the boss of that big Corporation and his secretary?

Do you want to write a restaurant review, become a "secret shopper" of a system that claims to love tourists...

Do you want to brag about your exploits or recount a tale from a man who knows a feline, who knows a lobstoid who you met in a bar...

Are you simply a concerned citizen of Galcop who thinks one of the various NewsFeeds of the eight charts should be investigating a particular issues?

If yes then...

PM me your story and if suitable it'll go into future versions of Snoopers

Editorial control with be retained by this office.

Let me know what Chart you're sending your news from - my office budget is small and my small team of reporters has only just reached Chart 3 - so anything from Chart 3 and beyond would be much appreciated.

Regards,

DaddyHoggy

How many words? Any editorial rules? And is it the usual stringer rate of 0.05Cr per word?

Disembodied - it's got to fit on a mission screen, so a couple hundred of words absolute maximum - but even sometimes that looks too much when it's converted.

Re: Editorial rules - nothing too gross, or racy, and anything too illegal and I may have to have a quick word with my contacts at Galcop...

Re: 0.05Cr/word - you may think that - but I couldn't possibly comment - however, the cheque will be in the post...

Can I be a Space-Paparazzi?

I have plenty of pictures of Nekkid Space-Cows!

Well, in some ways I'm glad my PM-box isn't overflowing (I've currently got Sinusitis - and I think my head may explode at any moment, or is that I wish my head would explode - thus relieving the pain) - but I thought perhaps a trickle? (and not just from my nose... :oops: )

Are looking for for reporters even as I write...

Just wanted to say a big thank-you to Switeck and Disembodied for their contributions so far - they're excellent and very much appreciated.
