DMI--who applied?

So who took Gabe up on his Dunder Mifflin Infinity offer?

I'm a huge Office fan as well, so I went on over to the site yesterday and sent in an application. Khoo may end up being his number 2, but let's not forget that the title of Secret Assistant to the Regional Manager is up for grabs!


Me: So you would be the regional manager and the assistant regional manager, Khoo is your number two, I would be the secret assistant regional manager.

Gabe: Mmm, let's call it secret assistant to the regional manager.

Me: Mm-hm.

Gabe: Do you accept?

Me: Absolutely I do.

    I have joined and I can't wait to earn 10,000 Schrute Bucks so I can earn 1 real dollar.

    I have indeed applied, and was accepted. I sincerely hope there is not competition from another Regional Manager for Spokane, because it seems like the PA force hasn't quite turned out yet...

    i applied. and did my first task already. i think it would be a good idea to collaborate here, to give each other tips and tricks on how to use the stupid tools to complete the tasks and whatnot. also to post what we did, to inspire others, or at least let them rip us off and improve.

    here's my submission. The Spokane Shitcocks. I really wanted to draw a wang but that's against the rules. I still think it turned out well. Too bad profanity isn't allowed also. I called it the Poo Roosters on the DMI forum. And according to the terms of use this is ok because it's IMmature imagery, not mature imagery ;-)

    I applied, still haven't been accepted/denied yet. (Unless it just doesn't tell you when you've been denied :() I whipped up a lame Halloween themed logo. I actually found it fun trying to make something using only the available shapes.

    Applied, a few times since when I went back 2nd time it asked for my app stuff again, dunno what's up. Made a lame logo, gonna go back and give it more work when I have the energy.

    I wasted some of my Schrutebucks on nick nacks before I realized there were tabs for other stuff. Now my PC has no mouse=/ I'm going to have to work so hard to earn those Schrutebucks just to improve my productivity to earn more Schrutebucks.

    I applied, was accepted, and made the following logo (warning: contains profanity).

    Sadly, the instructions say the only text we can include is our branch city, so this is invalid.

    EDIT: So I did another! Nothing says "SPOKANE" like a blonde in a bikini!

    so, by my count that's 14 of us that have registered and announced it in this thread. Our branch should be opening up anytime.

    I applied yesterday. I'm completely new on the forums but have trolled and read PA for years now as well as being an Office fan. So I thought I'd try it. I submitted a logo, but it wasn't too great. I'm going to try again tonight if I don't go crazy from using the editor thing. My browser doesn't seem to like it.

    yay for the branch being complete. but does anyone know where you enter in the DVD promo code to get the 100 extra schrutebucks? I don't have the DVD's but i found online that the code is Saybayon. I'm hoping that this isn't something that I had to enter when I signed up.

    Aw man, when you said were waiting for us to get fifteen signees, I thought you were just being funny. Dunder-Mifflin Spokane is over 1900 strong!

    I'm not sure why you can't see our branch, but it is open. As any IT professional would say, "It works on my machine." Let's see what we can do to get you on board, bud.

    --I assume you have received the "You're Hired!" (or if you used to play Operation Wolf, "YOUR HIRED!") email.

    --The URL I'm using to get there is http://www.dundermifflininfinity.com, then I access my account and hit the "my branch" tab. That URL is http://www.dundermifflininfinity.com/groups/dmi-us-wa-spokane

    Uh, that's all I've got for now. I'll explore supernatural options over lunch.

    I applied the day I saw Gabe's post. The forum there is so awful, I came over here to see if anyone set up a thread for the branch. This is the closest thing I've found. If Infinity gets better, maybe Gabe should think about adding a special section for us DMI Spokane-ites.

    The number of Branch employees went from 1961 to 2034 today, so in spite of the difficulties explained in today's comic news, Gabe and Co. are still sending out hiring emails.

    I went ahead and signed up for the Long Beach, CA branch- but then immediately re-applied for Manager of Fayetteville, NC as it was the last branch available.

    Anyone who wishes to pleeb under me may PM me for the code. I plan to rule with an iron fist.

    (although, if I don't get it, I'll probably re-apply for Spokane with my tail between my legs)
