Applications for Zone Editor should be sent to damonius@medievia.com.
You will receive a short note acknowledging that we have received your
application. The Zone Editors will then review the applications and
contact those applicants we feel may be qualified for a Zone Editor
position.  Everyone will receive an answer about the status of his or
her application after it has been reviewed, and qualified candidates will
be asked to take a proofreading and editing test. Passing this test is a
requirement to become a Zone Editor.

Answer the following questions in your e-mail to damonius@medievia.com.
If you have proofreading and editing experience outside Medievia (such as
a job on a college newspaper, or an internship with a publisher, or more
advanced work experience as a proofreader or copy editor), or within
Medievia (such as proofreading and/or writing rooms and mobs for your
clantown), be sure to mention that. Don't worry about being long-winded;
this is a position absolutely dependent on writing and reading skills, and
the more you tell me about yourself, the more you convince me that you are
the person for this job, the better.

 1.) Are you at least 18 years old or older? It's not necessary to tell us
     how old you are if you're over 18, but you must be at least 18 to
     apply for a god position.

 2.) What are your characters' names on Medievia, and what levels are
     they? This position requires a familiarity with the game that comes
     with experience. You must have a multiclass character to apply.

 3.) Have any of your Medievia characters ever been purged? If so, what was
     the character's name and why was it purged?

 4.) What languages do you know fluently, and which one is your native
     language (the one you speak and understand the best)? This position
     requires outstanding English skills in grammar, spelling,
     punctuation, and structure, but having English as a second language
     does not disqualify you. What country do you live in?

 5.) What experience do you have (in the real world and on Medievia) as a
     writer, proofreader, and copy editor? Do you have professional
     experience in this field? And have you worked on clantown building?

 6.) How many hours a week do you have available to work on your god
     should you be hired? Zone Editor is a time-consuming position that
     requires at *least* 10 hours a week during 'busy season'. The more
     time you can devote to the zones assigned to you, the better.

 7.) Are you a clanleader? This may or may not affect your ability to
     become a god, depending on the time required of the job you apply
     for and the judgement of those hiring you.

 8.) Do you feel when helping players you can conduct yourself in a
     professional manner and ignore any personal grudges or biases you
     may have? Please answer more than just yes or no.

 9.) What suggestions would you make about the general writing in
     Medievia's zones to improve them? Are there any zones that you feel
     need another round of editing and proofreading? Are there any zones
     in the game that you feel are underused because of the general
     quality of the writing? Are there any repeated or common mistakes you
     notice in Medievia's zones? Don't just paste in rooms with typos;
     point out things you've noticed and wished you could change.

10.) Please describe your educational background. What subjects interest
     you the most? What is/was your major in college or graduate school?
     Please include any independent or personal study you've undertaken in
     subjects that interest you.

12.) Write a brief (1-2 paragraph) statement explaining why you wish to
     become a god on Medievia, and why you wish to become a Zone Editor
     specifically. If you were especially forthcoming in your answers to
     the previous questions, this answer might not be necessary, but this
     is the place to say anything you want us to consider that wasn't
     asked.


We reserve the right to deny applications for any reason.
