Nexon America's offices are in the Los Angeles vicinity. That disqualifies a lot of people if that's what they mean.

That's not what they mean.
They very clearly stated that their "service area" is the entirety of GMS.
If you're not in an area with it's own dedicated Maple Franchise and are able to connect to and utilize GMS you're in the service area.

For people who still doubt, feel the need to argue, or otherwise disbelieve, read Hime herself saying it on #2; http://forum.nexon.net/MapleStory/fo...d.aspx#2589319

And here I thought I had discovered the reason why so many people were turned down the first time.

On Topic: I stand corrected.

They actually answered that one too - It was sheer volume.

They wanted 10 people each phase and had several thousand applicants ( #5, http://forum.nexon.net/MapleStory/fo...t/3612619.aspx )

Once they had their 10 every once else was sent a letter of "We have our quota before we even got to you so bugger off now kthxbye".

Since they're doing round 2 of this Maple Bridge, does that mean they fired some people from round 1? lol

Technically this is actually round 3.

Like any new program you start with a few people then if it's successful you ramp it up with more people.

Yes they've lost some people due to the program being nowhere near as glamorous as some people seem to think. They may have even ejected some people for one reason or another, but opening more slots was always in their plan.

What you mean? <Detail?>

Its. A. Job.
Jobs, by the very nature of being effort and work, suck ass.
There is no reward.
There is no bonus.
There is no talking about it.
There is no glamor.
There is no fame.
There is no "fun new powers".

You wander around invisibly, neglecting your real character and your friends, looking for people doing wrong and report them then hope they actually get dealt with.

And on top of all the wonder and joy, you still can't get Nexon to deal with your own issues when they arise any better than you can as a normal player, so when say your billions of mesos worth of gear is about to randomly expire because of a fuckup made by them, no help. But you're still expected to help them do their job.

And of course you get to hear the endless stream of people bitching about how everything that goes wrong in Maple is now your fault, because obviously your powerless ass exists only to fuck them over.

That enough empathy for you?

OGM Spoiler!

And no, for the people out there who think this is about me, I've never been nor will I be on the MWLB. I've had enough thankless jobs, don't need another, the ones who actually got in and then quit have more than confirmed it was everything I said and then some.
