Other Events:
-If you wish to commit to another event, please express your interest and detail the event you would like to run. Past events run by staff or community members include a team dueling event like Ragnarok or the Midnight Sun Tournament, boss events, twin win nights, and megacasts. The only request is that single day events are not scheduled for the same day as DoM or other DoF/DoS events as shown on their respective calendar threads. Need help developing an idea or have an idea and aren’t sure how to execute it? Let’s talk!




Ad Hoc DoM Needs:
-As challenges and tournaments occur, there is a need for historical updates. Historical updates are usually a one to two paragraph summary of the event that includes pertinent details like who participated, how many matches were involved (in the case of challenges), who won, and any other notable details. Please use this thread to claim specific write-ups as they occur. (ex. "Writing history for Tower of Earth Challenge on [date]")



Thanks so much,
Claire

As a reminder, Royal's last standings are this weekend, after which point we are seeking people to write news blurbs. I've seen a little bit of interest for ART assistance and some for news currently, so once I get back into town after this weekend, I'll be touching base with those who expressed interest to get some names down.

Otherwise, if you would like to cover any of these items and want to chat more about it, let me know or post here.

We will train damn near anyone if you're willing to learn so hit me up.
