The Event Squad is Recruiting!


Hey friends! The Event Squad is looking for new and active members to shine light in the form of events upon the community once more!


What’s the job of an Event Squad Member?

I’m glad you asked! The primary goal of the Event Squad is to keep the community entertained. There are many ways we do this, some of our favorites are hosting in-game tournaments such as EVictories, EHotseats, and ETourneys. You may also catch us hosting larger scale forum events such as The 5.0 Series.

What does it take to become an Event Squad Member?

We’re looking for people who are enthusiastic, creative and active. Think ya’ got some awesome and interesting ideas for events? Then this is definitely the position for you. We need people who can brighten the monotonous day of the average Toribash user through new, dynamic and exciting events. At the same time you’ll be required to have some level of maturity and reliability. The Event Squad do have some power, so we’ll need to be able to trust the people we recruit.

Why join the Event Squad?

As an Event Squad Member, you’ll have one of, if not best platform to help the community. It’s also pretty dang fun. We all want to see Toribash grow, and you can play a large part in that just by doing your job. Having a direct hand in bringing smiles and excitement to hundreds of Toribash players is both an amazing privilege and a great responsibility. There really is nothing cooler than seeing someone super stoked about an event you spent weeks working on and perfecting.
Oh, we also have a neat little reward system for the special snowflakes of the team who are doing well.

Well that sounds all fun and dandy, but how do I apply?

Well that’s simple! All you have to do is send in a free form application to any member of the Event Squad.
Please make sure to include your timezone and any languages you're fluent in! The rest of the application is up to you. Although, you may want to take a look at this wonderful little tutorial written by Dargon.

You’ll have two weeks from this post to send in your application, that means all applications must be sent in by May 30th, 2016. Discussion will take place an indefinite period of time after that. And please keep in mind, we’ll be reading through and discussing every application that comes through so this process may take some time. There is no limit on the amount of ES we’re willing to take on, in actuality it’s more the merrier as long as everything is done properly.

If you think about it logically, if you are not on the accepted list, you are probably rejected.
When it comes to recruitment drives though, you will know by the last wave. The ES likes to keep people guessing if they're accepted or not, it makes for a great test of personality imo.

You write the application and then send it via PM to someone from the ES. You can send it whenever you want. We accept applications non-stop.

i already sent an application to Fates and i haven't gotten a reply.. its been half a year since i sent the request.
Shut up.
That means you have been rejected. The only thing you can do is create another application and send it in. Persistence is a good thing when applying, don't be shy and send in a new application once a month or once every half a month if you want to. If you don't have enough dedication to keep applying then you won't stand out as an applicant, they may say no at first, but over time their opinion of you can change if your applications and public image are good (by good I mean you haven't been banned a lot).

Also, while it isn't guaranteed you'll get an answer, you can approach a member of the staff in IRC and respectfully ask them about your application. Things like what you could improve on and if there were any aspects of it that caused them to turn you away. I would recommend asking a staff member that you're friends with or at least familiar with to an extent.

Uh, I wouldn't send in an application every two to four weeks. Typically it takes that long for them to even judge your application. Maybe after a few months have passed after you could reapply, or just wait until the next recruitment drive to the position you're applying for.

but uh, that'd get pretty old fast fam

You are right for the most part. Perfectly maybe like once on 2 months is good enough. That way we see you want to join is alot and so we can ensure you wont join just for bragging rights. Also the voting part doesnt take a whole month. Usually whoever is willing and going to vote happens during the first week. If not enough people votes it gets bumped so that we can give final thoughts and make a decision.

TLDR: Just be persistant about your staff position and sooner or later if everything goes nice and smoothly, you will achieve it.

Well propably you should make an edit in first post which will be like : "ALL INFO INCLUDED THERE" or a FAQ, to make it more clear or sth

This thread just shows that the Event Squad (a group of staff that mainly hosts event ingame and on the forum) is recruiting new people.
