It's All Over
News posted 3rd October, 2004 by ShadowCaster  
Applications for the Administrators position at The Daily Click have now closed. A lot of people tried out, and it will take a while, I'm sure, to decide who it will be (there has already been a lot of discussion in the Editors forum).

A few things I wanted to mention for next time:

1. When you submit an application you need to tell me what your DC name is. There is no use telling me your real name because that often isn't the same as your DC name; and some people didnt give me a name at all.

2. I realise that the admins don't always spall korrectly and use more badder grammars, but a job application is supposed to showcase your ability. If you submit text that is riddled with spelling mistakes, has poor grammar, and isn't formatted (i.e. all in one big paragraph) then it's going to be less likely we choose you over someone else who presented themself well in their writing.

3. Please provide me with what I ask, and only what I ask. One email I got didn't include a writing sample, and I had to email him back to ask for it. Another person sent me 5 samples of writing, all of which none of the admins have enough time to read. I didnt ask for a link to "many things" or "a few things" or even "a couple of things" so keep that in mind next time we're searching for admins.

I don't know why I bothered saying all that again, since I say it every time and no one seems to listen. However if at least one person remembers this for next time, then my life becomes a little easier :-)

I'm sure I mentioned what's needed. If I didn't, I apologise.

Next time eh? Can't wait. ;) Actually I feel guilty that I didn't send you an email pronouncing my unrequited hetrosexual man love towards you Mike. Although I guess I could do that any time right?

Mug: You dont need a reason, you can do that any time ;)

I wonder how many people made their writing up and tried to make it look good.
 
Posted by Jamesbuc 4th October, 2004

I wonder if there will be a poll in the end finalists?
 
Posted by Simon Colmer 4th October, 2004

My application was accepted, all i need to do is see if they pick me.
 
Posted by Knudde (Shab) 4th October, 2004

Well it's going to be a democratic decision, which here means that we'll fight over who we think will be an admin, beat each other into bloody pulps, and when it's over and we have our final choice, Rikus will make everyone give everyone else a big hug, and we'll have a new admin

GAH. I was going to type something terribly witty here but my train of thought's been interrupted by these bloody ants crawling all over my desk. I can't imagine what they're after, there's nothing here other than spilled drink, and I don't think ants like tequila.

It should be a vote between members, because I sure as hell know I dont have a chance with the admins voting.

Posted by Jack Galilee 5th October, 2004

I think IceTec Studios and Down Town Dragon need to get intimate with a meat grinder...
