MotM/SotM: June 2015 As of now, we're beginning to keep tabs and notes on who we as a staff team believe should win this award. We even have a criteria to keep in mind if you want to maximise your chances. See the following: Member of the Month:Selection will be based on the following criteria: - Quality of roleplaying posts: Are your posts creative and detailed so as it weaves a rich and engrossing tale?
- Contribution to the site: How have you contributed to the development and history of this site? You could perhaps make some suggestions to improve the roleplaying experience or create new topics for discussion or forum games to entertain us all.
- Participation and activity: Demonstrate to the staff that you enjoy visiting ZapdosZulu regularly. There are a large number of discussion topics in the General Boards which you could participate in. Even talking in the cbox might be a way of showing that you can fit in and get along well with the ZZ community.
- Good ZapdosZulu citizen: Although this is harder to judge, there are sometimes things that you can do to help out new members, current members and even staff. For example, you might welcome new visitors to the site as well as answer a few questions based on your current understanding of our rules and expectations. Also, little things such as providing a link to your profile in your siggy makes a staff member's life much easier.
Please note that this is not the only criteria that we may judge you on. There are other ways in which you could be selected such as promoting the site and advertising it. What with the current contest going on. The staff members will be making nominations at the end of the month and the winner will be announced shortly after. Staff of the Month:As with our last SotM competition, the criteria is judged by are as follows: - Efficiency of Modding: This includes not only quality and quantity but also speed and accuracy. As we continue to grow, a lot more threads will need modding so the main criteria for Staff of the Month is the way that you handle the pressure of modding and balancing this out with replies to your own thread.
- Variety of modding: As this would suggest, we are looking out for people who respond to many different threads and can adapt to different scenarios and situations imposed on them. There is also a trend towards providing choices for members in their roleplay instead of the mundane trainer and wild Pokémon battles forced upon them. Also, don't feel daunted by moderating other staff members.
- Participation in Staff activities: Something as simple as claiming Mod Points not only shows that you are enjoying the perks of being a Moderator, but it also advertises yourself too. We can only get a true sense of how much work that you've done by looking at Mod Point totals and it provides useful data, which can be analysed and used to improve our efficiency in the future. Also, other contributions to Area 51 projects and making custom sprites for special events is much desired.
- Initiative and leadership: If you see something on the site that needs attention, you could perhaps alert me to it through a pm or a thread in the Staff Area. To give an example, there might be a need to revise a particular rule or you feel that something is missing in the roleplay and needs to be covered.
- Site maintenance and management: Included in this is the administrative work that you've done. This could be as simple as responding to "Mod Request" topics for threads that are more than 5 days old or updating starter Pokémon into new members' profiles. Even looking after Game Corner threads.
As mentioned earlier, we're keen to promote this event and ensure its in people's minds throughout the month. So of course, with that, is the incentives for the month. Just to keep things interesting, we're going to be keeping these hidden for the time being but come the middle of the month, these will be announced. Rewards:The winner of MotM and SotM will receive one of the prizes below. The winners may select whichever Pokémon they prefer (and yes, both can select the same Pokémon). To be revealed...Candidates have up until June 30th to run for the award with the winners being announced on the 1st of July. All the best! Thanks for reading, ZZ Staff Team.

Wow I keep telling myself to claim my prize, but it just keeps slipping my mind. Bleh. It's an honour to win this ^^ I'm glad I made the choice to come back on to staff and help out, because I really do have fun writing replies and lending my thoughts behind the scenes. I still haven't thought of a nickname or personality, but I'll be placing this in Tanya's box for now.
