TOURNEY RESULTS ◥◣_______________________________________________

( Embedding Scrolls Sideways )
( -1 = Disqualified )

I added 5 New tags:  

~ Originals
~ SNK

~ Capcom
~ Anime
~ Cartoon

This is to align the available tags with the existing collections warehouse rooms, so the automation can do as much auto-organizing as possible. 
To minimize human effort required / make things as easy as possible on everyone in the end.

The automoation isn't active yet.  It'll kick on probably in the beginning of August, maybe a little earlier.  But what it does is basically just take all the topics in the News and Releases forum that are older than 1 year, and move them into the Collections Warehouses.  Whatever tags are on the topic determine which room in which warehouse they go into.  Adding these 5 tags made all the rooms in all the warehouses 'taggable'.

The exact logic of the automation is spoilered here, for anyone who's interested.

Yes, the title of this thread was my test to get into the 19th circle of hell.

The only thing I can think about now when I hear the name of this show is that guy getting his head crushed by the Mountain.  That shit.  Was fucked up.

honestly

 

G-mod position shouldn't be ask freely since we dont know what kind of outcome the moment you pick that person since we had 2 possible results wise G-mod or a idiot G-mod.

 

well to be one of em required good reputation and knows how use that position very well 

 

about the Social Experts how this useful honestly? (since the facebook of MFFA is pretty much dead or fucked up for some reasons)

I hear what you're saying about the g-mod thing being asked freely, where you never know who you're going to get applying.
But if we narrow the field by making it a 'promotion only' type position, you never know who we're going to miss by handling the position that way.
So my approach is to keep it open to both, but with a strong lean towards promoting, because the current section mods have clearly proven themselves already.

The Social Media Experts function is outlined in the first link in my last post.  (here)
I'm currently waiting to hear back from the person running the FB.  
If they end up never responding, or something to that effect, we'll create an alternate FB page to work alongside the existing one.

Hello... Apparently I can't add more than 5 people into my private conversation in the Messages section. Is this because of the latest forum updates and changes? Earlier last year my friends could still add 10 people without any issue

Quoting this because I can't move the post here.
But members can have up to 10 recipients for personal messages.

Right, you can nominate yourself, but you can't up or down vote yourself.

For everyone asking me to explain the positions in more detail, here's the link.  
The threads kinda new, still a bit of a wip on my part, so the display is... slightly less than optimal, shall we say?

@DS12 Productions here's the link for the author thing.

Discussion amongst staff is under way.  Just wanted to let everyone know.
That doesn't mean it's too late to put in your bid for a position, just that once we decide that's it, so time is limited.

Random Question: Why asking for more staff? I get the point of the collections cuz thing is really massive.

The 2 social media experts we're taking on to help the forum network outward a little, draw in some new people, build the communities future base, and make us more easily accessible to people on platforms they're already on anyway, like facebook, twitter, twitch, youtube etc.  I will say there is a grand design at work here that should slowly become visible over the next month or so.

From a status update from Noside.  Had to.

Yes, absolutely.  It'll be thoroughly discussed and decided on collectively by everyone on staff.
And if it winds up taking us longer than a week to come to a group decision, that's fine.
It's just a projected time frame, not like a deadline of any sort.

I have to say too, it's been really great to see so much interest so far. 
 

@Ricepigeon I would prefer to promote a board moderator to global mod, and if any of the board mods express interest in the position, they're far more likely to get it.  I did ask staff about 2 weeks ago if anybody had suggestions for the g-mod position, and nobody said anything.  But if any of you, gui0007, Mʀ. Sтᴇαl-Yoᴜя-Wαεfυ, Big Green would like the g-mod position, please do say so.  Or even if you'd like to move to a different board mod title, that works too.  Now would be a good time too, if that's something you want.  It's going to be about a week before we make any final decisions anyway, so you have some time to think, and staff will have some time to talk over all of the decisions before anything is finalized.

And to everyone, in the mean time, please don't take any lack of a response from staff as a no.  We're just going to let everyone express their interests before we choose.  
Partially to maximize our options, and make the choice that will most help the forum, and partially so that going forward we have a sense of who's interested in what positions.
