Auction Network is giving interested fans two ways to audition:
1. Show up to our live open casting call which will take place on Dec. 30, 2008, from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. (PST) on the patio of the Café Tu Tu Tango Restaurant located on the Universal CityWalk at 100 Universal City Plaza in Universal City, Calif. 91608.

For all you colonial marines, leave the FN P90, Beretta CX4 Storm and COP 357 Derringers at home. Universal prohibits anyone from bringing weapons -- real or prop -- onto the premises. We don't need a Code Blue being sounded.
2) Can't make it to the open casting call?

We'll check it out and if it blows our fraking minds we'll add your audition video to our YouTube favorites section along with all the videos Auction Network collected during the on-site casting call.
The judges will rate the videos on a 1-10 point scale rating with 1 point being the lowest score and 10 points being the highest score, based on the following equally weighted criteria: (1) expertise in BSG trivia and all other matters BSG, (2) ability to articulate your thoughts and deliver commentary clearly, (3) capability to express yourself with brevity, and (4) good camera presence (audience appeal).
Then all you have to do is hope the gods (and our selection panel) select you for the live telecast. All video submissions are due by 11:59 p.m. (CST) on Jan. 5, 2009. You can find the required contest rules at: http://www.auctionnetwork.com/news/Article.asp?ID=5024.
