Gamemasters are recruiting!

The GameMasters are back again, we are once more looking for a wave of trial GMs to step up and become the smiling face of the Toribash staff


What do GameMasters do?

The primary function of the GameMaster team is to keep the Toribash community entertained. This is done in a variety of ways, most commonly we host in game events such as GMTourneys, GMVictories and GMHotseats. We also regularly host larger scale forum events, for example The Haunted Gauntlet to keep Toribash fresh and exciting.

What does it take to be a GM?

The most important qualities in a GM, which we will be looking for, are enthusiasm, creativity and activity. We are constantly in need of new types of events and competitions to keep the game dynamic and exciting rather than monotonous. The most creative people, the ones who can consistently provide interesting things to present to the community are the ones we want to have on the team. At the same time a level of maturity and reliability is needed, as GMs do have power, we need to be able to trust the people we recruit.

Why be a GameMaster?

Being a GM is one of the most effective ways of benefiting the community, all of us want to see the Toribash community grow and you can play a part in that process simply by doing your job. In hand with this, it is one of the most fun ways you can help the community and as a GM you can have a great sense of satisfaction seeing your performance having a direct influence on how much other players enjoy the game.
There is also a nifty reward system for GMs who are doing well

How do I apply?

Simple! Send a free form application to Erth.
Include your GMT and any languages you are fluent in.
You may also want to use Dargon's tutorial for applying to a staff position.

You have 2 weeks from the date this is posted to send in your applications, then discussion will take an indefinite period of time after that. We don't have a limit on the amount of gamemasters we're looking for either!



Don't post "I applied" or "Good luck guys!" in this thread. Also esports. We don't want any esports you're selling. Feel free to ask us any questions if you need more information. Good luck chaps!




ppssssssssssttttttttt, we're also always looking for more artists and mod makers to help out! They get access to the reward too!

Yeah, I only don't like erthtkv2 because of the mod's name. Make it "tkv2," and the mod will instantly become more popular. This is a valid reason as the name of the mod is still an important feature that no one seems to have yet discussed.
Quick question that just popped into my head.

Upon being accepted and becoming a trial do you usually end up shadowing just a single GM or multiple ones.

Also can you choose which GMs you wish to be taught by?

• No longer "active" on Toribash. Leave a PM if you need something, I'll eventually see it. •
• Crippled/Disabled girls are the best girls a guy could have. •

Shadowing is a sort of bad term I think, you ask people to watch you host and they'll critique. You're also very encouraged to ask as many questions as you can to just about anyone really. The whole team is really helpful. Yes you can choose but imo it's best to get a wide range of different experiences and build relationships with the entire team.

I'd like people to stray away from questions about the trial period and day to day operations, please.
If you get accepted, we'll teach you everything you need to know, don't stress about that.

Yes you can re-apply, we don't tell you how long to wait, we leave it down to you.
If you want to keep applying go for it, but we will most likely just keep rejecting you.
If you wait a while and genuinely try to improve and stuff then we're more likely to see that you've changed and want you on the team.

Last 2 days to get your applications in before we stop taking drive apps!

We've got nearly 100 applications, we're already working through them but it's going to take a little bit of time, and we wouldn't want to rush it, so that we end up making the best decisions for you guys.

And to Erth: You're only just checking them? Becuase I thought we were allowed to re-apply if we didn't get in in a couple of days.

More like a couple of weeks man. Don't assume that because a month has passed you haven't been accepted. Spamming us with applications does not do anything to your chances.

Minimum is 2 weeks but the trial can decide to stall it if they want more experience or haven't fulfilled the criteria by then.
Also irl commitments sometimes get in the way.
We aim for 2-4 weeks, don't really want it going over a month but as I said, that's something that people don't need to concern themselves with unless they're actually a trial.

I have one more question, If we sent in our app today, around how many days should pass before we know we have been denied? Around a week?

same amount as everyone else, we'll be releasing the results all together after an indefinite period.
