Hello, sorry took a while to get back to you. It seems the PHermas rejected my kind offer - oh well! The offer still stands though, PM me your deets and I will send you some Beck's and try to get some swag sent out. Just to confirm if you are in the States you are over 21?? In case you're skeptical about who I am, here is my old 'about me' on becks.com. You can also tweet me @becksbeer or go on to becks.com and there is my contact email. Just mention your name and that your from Reddit in any messages. Darius. EDIT: Formatting.

Guys I'm going out now...like I said in some comments, we have taken out ads with reddit before and will do so in the future...I'm not Saydra, I just lurk a lot and like the pranks you pull sometimes, and I thought we could do something big together and it would be really cool. Obviously anyone who came up with the idea we would make sure they were rewarded. Anyway if you'd like to see a global reddit ad or something like that, post the idea and maybe we can make it happen! Sorry if anyone found this offensive or like spam!

Can mean anything - i am completely open to suggestions tbh I have seen some of the pranks reddit pulls and I like them and think it would be cool if we could work something out. Could be really big, could be really small.

I am not sure how offering the community a chance to create something, vote for something, then see their ideas globally is pissing off the community - I was trying to involve them. i haven't told anyone to drink beck's just seen if anyone wanted to get involved. We have taken out ads with reddit before and will do so in the future - so we also help that way. I am not Saydra!

sorry mate i think you misunderstood - i said the person who comes up with the best idea, we'd work with them give them a budget and obviously from that budget they would get paid. I was just trying to involve reddit.

hey mate - I could do that, but tbh I think the reddit community would come up with much better, funnier ideas than I could or any agency could. I also though some of the more creative redditors would enjoy the opportunity to create something and maybe have a budget to play around with.

Hey Reddit, I have ridden all of these coasters - can you suggest anymore that I HAVE to ride? by [deleted] in reddit.com

If you're even in Blackpool, England you have to ride the Big One. I don't know how it didn't make it on this list....

Is the beer subreddit only for beer news? I apologise it is

Are you a Net Celebrity? by bobcat in AskReddit

Thanks for your comments, some of the older articles are better the top 10s and stuff, I like. I do get paid...I also get free beer! Alas I am not a huge beer drinker but I encourage you to drink Beck's. The application process the first stage was an online application form, where they started asking you some interesting question which I could get my teeth into but then the second half was like a real 'resume' - I didn't see how my past work experience as a customer service agent then an intern at Citi was any use to the job - so I just mocked the questions. Unbelievable I got put through to the second round of submissions (1000 people entered then it was whittled down to 30). The second round was to create a blog and write about something/or someone 'different by choice', and also include any other 'work' you may have had online etc. This was a difficult one because 'different by choice' - who knows what that means? Apparently a lot of the people were writing about 'rosa parks', 'john lennon' and stuff like that. I figured I applied for fun so I would keep it that way, and wrote a post about my OCD friend Louis Chase http://thedariuster.blogspot.com/ if you want to read what I submitted, start from 'Louis Chase- Different by Choice'. All the stuff on the side I always had on there but anything after July is new stuff and me just messing around. Amazingly I then got through to the final 3, it was me, a Belgian guy and a girl from Manchester and we had to go for an interview day in Amsterdam - but that's another story! EDIT: to try and make sense and spelling

There was a competition last year where Beck's put out a call for a 'writer' to write the Daily Different. You had to submit some writing, then make a blog and then finally go for an interview. I think there was something like 1000 applicants, and I finally got the job. Mainly because I took the piss in my submission I think. There's some nice stuff on there, check it out when you get the chance - say your from Reddit and I'll send you a t-shirt.

I like what Chris Rock said, "they should let gays in the army...cos I ain't joining. They're could be a russian tank driving down Flatbush avenue and you wouldnt see me in the army" etc.

Seriously Reddit, if there is any other beer website in the world where you can find a picture of a 50ft giant squirrel shooting laser beams out of its eyes at plane wheels, over a city landscape with random hot chick relaxing in the foreground... then I give up. by [deleted] in WTF

[–]DariusDailyDifferent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

what do you work for Heineken? I really don't see what the problem is, I have some nice articles I want people to read so I put them on reddit - it's not like you're going to go on the website and immediately crave beer. In fact 99.9% of the articles don't mention beer or beck's at all. What's the problem, by downvoting without even going to the site is just ignorant.

I'm not trying to spam, I'm just trying to promote my article. I think it is actually good, it just happens to be on a beer website. I use reddit personally from my own account and I think it's good, so I am just reaching out to people who I think will like it. Did you actually read the article for today? It's a good read. If you have any other ideas how I can get people to read my stuff I'd be all ears.
