Gamemasters recruiting!

Hey there guys! Once again, it's time for the GameMasters to recruit some fresh blood.
There are no requirements based on belt, post count or length of time you've been around.
We're looking for reliable, active and enthusiastic people who are outgoing and personable.
It's a free form application, that means there's no set format, you include however much you feel is needed, GMT, languages, when you're active etc etc
That kind of stuff.
Applications should be sent to Erth or Thorn.

Before writing it up though, you may wanna check THIS THING HERE out. Dargon's been lovely enough to tell you how to make a good not totally balls app

The deadline for applications is (2 weeks after this thread is posted)

Any posts saying "Just sent my app" or "Good luck" will be deleted and infracted

P.S Posting in this thread will not help your chances. We're going on the assumption that most posts here will be full-retard

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.
just a reminder, don't post here asking if your application was read, asking if people got it, etc, such posts will be removed and you'll probably be infracted.

also try to keep the useless posts here to a minimum, only ask questions related to gms, joining the gms, etc.


and if i see any "omg i applied good luck everyone else!!!!" posts i am going to permaban you and steal all of your items.

We do a lot of in-game based moderation, i.e. dealing with reports on things like scamming, racism, etc. Just so you know, it's kind of time consuming so don't apply if you have work, school, or other things that will keep you from keeping a somewhat active stature

hope that sort of clears it up.

Honestly, I don't mind the idea of being "in game police". Nor Do I mind keeping records.

I'm pretty much back to visiting Toribash once (or more) per day, so activity is not an issue either.

However, back in the day (gamekeepers?) we were required to record a full tournament worth of replays, and zip/upload them for "whatever".

I love hosting tournaments, I've done it in official and unofficial capacities. I'm mostly wondering exactly what "paperwork" is required these days.
"Splint Chesthair" - Is my real name.
Question:

Lets say that i apply as gamemaster, do i also need to give my contact information (example: skype) and how great part it would be regarding to accepting me, or can i go full anonymous and not give any information that is related to my real life (expect basic information, like name and age)

Question: just wondering... how long does it usually take to go from a trial gm to a full gm?

Honestly depends how fast the trial is willing to be. A lazy one will take longer and a fast, hard-working one will be shorter. Also depends when Erth and Thorn want to to do it

Generally speaking, two weeks - 2 months I'd say.

omg, are all of current GMs' friends friends already GMs? What are rewards of being GM? Are they get paid? Or it's for nolifers who are happy with duty without wage?
It's not paid. Everything is volunteer. Your incentive should revolve around a genuine want to further evolve our community and game. If you get into this for any other reason, you'll go insane pretty quickly.

Now obviously due to the nature of the position typically people are nicer to, you'll be more involved on the "inside" of the operations, and you acquire power. But abuse of this power or information is a fast track to be fired or banned.
Need help?

Probably they'll need more than one new GM. They need a strong and active team to be prepared to entertain new wave of players.
