Now hiring: Warmasters

[regen2k9]

In my humble opinion, a warmaster must have taken part in at least a single war and must have won the trust of the community, so he/she must be either well-known or his/her reputation power must be at least higher than 15. Me, for example, even if I take part as a warmaster, even if I learn the war event upside down, the majority of the community doesn't know me and they won't trust me as a warmaster, so they will avoid participating in the upcoming war. Unfortunately, I don't think an unknown community member can handle this (and by 'this' I mean rather the critiscism of more well-known and experienced members than the responsibility of being a warmaster).

Heck, I'd play in war and won't care about Warmaster much, if you learn to do this job you are good for this, if you are active on forum and chat, even better.

I COMPLETELY agree with this.

Anyone wanting to apply but thinking similarly to this: I was only on the forums for 5 months and was still very scatter-brained when I became WM. Look where I am now

If you apply and get selected, it's because the council sees something in you and believes you can do it. If the council believes that, the community will likely feel the same way.

I'm wondering: With me being less than one month old on the forums, would there be a point for me to sign up? If there is a chance, I definitely will sign up.

Dunno, but IMO a WM should at least be well-known, either before applying or after applying.
That being said, do apply. If you have a potential, they might pick you.

problem is, many people do wanna play in war and if people wanna play in trials (with hope of becoming a master) they also can't apply cause they'll most likely want to lead their team in case they win.

I say go for it.  You really have nothing to lose.  I think the most important thing is that you would be willing to learn the ins and outs of war and really take the time to study its history and past planning.  Of course, I don't speak for the council.  That's just my 2 

[Xenocidius]

Realistically, with less than even 50 posts and less than a month on the forum, your chances of being appointed are virtually 0. That said, the Council does take note of past applications, so showing enthusiasm in an application now may help you if you decide to apply for another position in a few months or so. We do encourage relatively new/unknown members to apply, but we have to draw the line somewhere.

Any update on the WM situation?  Do we have enough applicants/candidates?

[Higurashi]

We have enough. Voting has begun and will take a week.

[artimies7]

If you don't have enough Warmasters at the end of the day, I can be a plan B if you want. Just Pm me or something.

Wait, never mind. Totally didn't read all the way through.

Offer still stands too.

[Higurashi]

Grats to Jenkar, Helston and bjessee for becoming our 3 new WM's. I'll be removing kev's title as soon as he's done with you three.
