OUR RANKS
The Council manages the Discord server's administration and infrastructure, decides which events will be hosted, brainstorms events and comes up with a prizepool or rewards. They also choose fitting members for the team based on demonstrated effort. Assignment to this role is based on activity and presence within the community.
The Tech-Team offers support in various technical aspects crucial to our operations. Primarily, they assist with implementing features and bots on Discord. Additionally, the Tech-Team plays a vital role in maintaining our website, ensuring its functionality and relevance to our audience.
Our Community Management helps us with server moderation and administration so these pesky scammers and spammers don't stand a chance. Not only that, but they also support the Council with handling commission tickets and solving conflicts between individuals, or handing out warnings to misbehaving people so the community stays a safe place for everyone.
The Creative Crew is a group of volunteering artists and editors that help us create stunning artworks, posters, edits, teasers, trailers and more for community events and sometimes even offer their artistic skills as rewards for contest winners in the form of artworks. In our server's Ticket Commission System, the Creative Crew gets priority access before everyone else to the tickets and can thus offer their services first, before the rest of the server's artists. Additionally, the Creative Crew can offer their skills in our Art Auctions to support the guild and at the same time bring joy to a communtiy member.
Benefactors provide financial support for our events, contests, and other initiatives. Their contributions help to sustain and elevate our endeavors, ensuring their success and impact within our community. As a token of appreciation for their generosity, Benefactors hold a special role on our Discord server. Benefactors have the opportunity to utilize UAoT, in agreement with the Council, as a platform to host their own events.
Working either by themselves or with the help of the Council, the Event Team organizes and coordinates events from start to finish to ensure seamless execution. This includes setting time schedules, planning rewards, formulating announcements, and overseeing the event's smooth progression.
To be a partnered Streamer for our events, we expect a regular streaming schedule with a decent stream set-up. Our streamer's entertaining personalities captivate the viewers, ensuring an enjoyable experience for all who tune in. Streamers should be open to co-casting streams (like having guests on their streams).
