Peerless Girl

I rarely ever post, and mostly lurk. Madison is amazing, and I would love to see her hired for SOMETHING, I don't care what. She has a natural, (amazingly spastic) talent for just being natural on camera. Linus worked for years to get his "character" down (and he does it well) but she walked in and stole it all. I've legitimately rarely seen Linus confused and at a loss for words very often. Some of it was scripting I'm sure, but Madison doesn't strike me as someone who scripts all that often. 
 
I would love to see more of her, please hire her. Thank you. *hugs LTT Stealth water bottle*

All that aside, you can't fake chemistry like that. It's also true (IMO) that she's the best co-host Linus has ever had (as much as I love Luke). Just because no one HAS been hired to be in front of the camera to this point doesn't mean someone CAN'T be hired to do this. Perhaps he should move outside the box and hire someone to do that, rather than prepping some other crew to do a (sub par) job at it? (Riley not-withstanding, and Luke has gained it over the years). This girl starts off as more of a natural than anyone he's had before, and has nowhere to go but up. You're also assuming she doesn't have additional skills, which clearly she does in the artistic sense. You're welcome to be as pessimistic as you like, but the rest of us are gonna stick with #HireMadison.  

Agreed, she has an easy, natural charisma, and is obviously just being herself. I've been told I can do that, but I never FEEL like I'm doing it. They do have amazing chemistry on camera together, and I think they'd be a fun WAN Show team (especially for when Luke's not around). It's hard for me to put in words how I feel about it.

That is exactly what I plan to do, Kelar. I can probably safely say I know Mads doesn't want this to be anything toxic or negative, and it's not intended to be, at least by myself. To do much more other than support her risks doing exactly as you suggest, so I for one plan to support her as I've been doing and see where it goes!

Weird or not, obsession or not.

The hire Madison thing needs to run it's course pretty quickly so that it doesn't risk HARMING her chances of getting hired.
It was a great thing to express the support of the audience and the interest in more content.
But at this point LMG has to be ENTIRELY aware of the opinion and support, and to let it run much longer will risk harassment and might make it harder to hire her, less it appear that they can be harassed into doing things.

Let's continue to support her in whatever adventures she decides to go on, and dial back the Hire spam a little.

She's a graphic designer, and just because they have one, doesn't mean they can't use two. My lady is a graphic artist, and I actually showed her the job listing back when they posted it, but we're not keen to move to Canada at this point. Based on how it is at her work where she is the ONLY fully qualified graphic artist (she's got a degree and tons of experience), it is a royal PITA when she wants to take a day or two off, let alone a week long vacation.
 
Madison is a gamer too, so she's got another thing that fits right in.
 
She's articulate enough, funny, and comfortable in front of the camera. She's also younger than most of the staff, and a bit more in touch with that demographic.
 
Lots of good reasons to hire her, and the only obstruction I can see is that as a contest winner, there might be some embargo for a given period of time. If there isn't - then do it.

I feel like if you could put up with four hours of me drawing an egg on stream and still think that. You could probably put up with anything!

I did, and I do, it was heavily refreshing. You're a refreshing person who isn't afraid to be who she is, and that's awesome. I know you don't need me to say it, but, there you go. Regardless of anything, I want to see what you end up doing!

I'm glad people seem to think I'm funny!!!
