Map Assistants and Game Ambassadors
Map assistants are very important partners to us while creating new strategy maps for Major Command Risk online games. Gearing up for going public again, the responsibilities of CentCom are the creation of a good clip. We are looking for interested and able Risk players to report for the following positions: Map Assistants and Game Ambassadors.
The first one described here by our Major Command Studios head, Shepherd. We’re currently seeking folks with sharp eyes and impeccable taste to serve as map assistants in our Screening Room. The screening room is where our map artists craft future Major Command Risk maps, working on everything from the placement of the regions down to the width of the map’s troop containers. This is not the place for user-generated map development; that is still to come. This is a viewing room where our artists seek advice and feedback. Screening room map assistants will be expected to check in routinely (at least weekly) to look over and give feedback on new drafts. Assistants should have a solid understanding of how the game plays, and of the unique game features here at Major Command. Knowledge of Photoshop would be helpful in conversing with the artists, but is absolutely not required. Candidates should also be able to keep a secret, as some new projects we’ll want to keep under wraps until we’re ready to unveil!
If you are interesting in this, and we are looking for up to 10 folks, please send a private note to Shepherd.
Game Ambassadors
The second position is that of Risk game Ambassador.
The responsibilities will be as a go-to person for new players to ask questions of and get answers. As well as set up and play games with new players. As a game Ambassador, you will be charged with extolling and extending the good will of Major Command Risk strategies. You must know the rules of the game, the ins and outs of this site, and where to direct new players who need answers you cannot provide. We are looking for up to 3 people for this (staff) position.
If interested, please send a private note to ghost, who will be the liaison.
I am interesting in this
I’ve got no photoshop skills, but I think I have a good eye for game balance. Happy to help with the screening.
there are two typos in the last paragraph
ins and ours should be ins and outs
cannot should be can’t or can not
and earlier it says ‘please note Shepherd’
should that say ‘please send a private note to Shepherd’
I would help to new users but only if you change the scoring method:

*interested, orbo, INTERESTED! don’t let greenoaks see you make these kind of spelling mistakes! 😉
clearly greenoaks is unaware of our fearless leaders trademark typos..
i would like to help with maps if required
haha, I was poking fun at the typo in the blog itself, which ironically, is the only one Green didn’t find, lol
enzek-rohtlz; what is your scoring suggestion? (I’m not allowed to see what is in the link you posted)
ghost: Isn’t the ambassador the same thing as what you requested earlier? See https://www.majorcommand.com/forums/threads/761-Newbie-Games-Have-you-played-more-then-5-consecutive-games
sorry i am late answering this.. and no coolname, this job is much more involved. yes, part of this is playing newbies, but it is also more community involved in several areas.
greenaoks – FYI “can not” should always be spelled “cannot” (or can’t)… I think you lost your candidature for the position as proofreader 😉
