It’s not a surprise that there are some intense Game of Thrones fans out there, but this just takes fan devotion to a whole new level. From the City Paper comes this amazing Craigslist ad recruiting people to join the top “Game of Thrones minds in D.C.”

But what does that entail exactly? Well, according to the ad, these Game of Thrones super-nerds are looking for people to help them achieve their goals of “[working] together to map D.C. to Westeros and Essos” (Westeros and Essos are the two continents in the Game of Thrones universe), “designate a leadership plan for each kingdom,” and “schedule drinking and trivia competitions for D.C. dominance.”

But take heed: this isn’t an application for the weak of heart—or casual GoT fan. The ad says they’re looking for applicants who aren’t meek, like drinking cheap beer and expensive liquor, have a “moderate to strong knowledge” of both the GoT books and show, are willing to help recruit new soldiers into the nerdery, and are dedicated. You won’t get paid, the ad says, but you might get free beer, which is nice.

Full ad below:
