Excluding the community they work for, the Organizers are the most important aspect of the Community Carnages. These are the individuals who volunteer their time, blood, and sweat for the benefit of the community, and we’re looking for more of these upstanding individuals.
What does that mean for you? That means if you’re a loving member of this community looking to give back, we want you. We want your dedication, your prowess, and your ideas. We’re looking to expand our staff to help provide more events for the community. We’re looking to get a lot bigger, and a lot meaner, and we need you for that to work.
But before you apply, it's only fair to let you know what you're getting into. I’m not going to lie. As glorious a job as it is, it is just that, the occasional job, but by becoming an Organizer, we only demand two things from you. Two simple things you could do in your sleep, I’m sure. First, you host game nights (surprise!). The best part is the frequency of the game nights. It’s totally up to you. Once a week, once a month, or even less regular then that. We realize that the Organizers are volunteers, and as such it’d be unfair to demand too much. The idea is that you’re interested in giving back, and as long as you work to give back, however much as possible, we still want you. If you didn’t want to work, you wouldn’t of taken the job in the first place. However, that being said, if you vanish off of Bnet for extreme absences with no warnings, we may do a bit of house cleaning. You have been warned. And second, we simply urge Organizers or potential Organizers to remember that they will become a part of a group project, not a one man show, and as such, when you represent the Community Carnage, you represent more than yourself. So, as expected, when representing the Carnage, we simply expect you to be the best model of community goodness available.
Scary stuff aside, it’s time for us to reap your souls! I mean, for you to apply…
In the thread before, or via PM to me, RollinRollin13 (if you’re the shy type), simply fill out a nice post answering the following:
-Why do you want to be an organizer? What can you bring to the table?
-What kind of future do you see the Community Carnage? 6 months from now, what do you see yourself doing for us and in what state are we in?
-What ideas do you have for the Carnage? Straight out of the gate, anything you’d do differently or implement?
-What time zone are you in?
Ready? Set? Go! Apply, apply, apply! It’s time to give back to your community, and we want you!

I'm moving into a college dorm next week, so my ability to game will be hindered for a while. I am definitely interested in becoming am organizer though. I should have something figured out by mid-late spring. And then the summer season comes around, so I'll have no problems there. 1. I love participating in Carnages and would love to help setting them up. Honestly, we need to have more of them happening. I set up the "Goodbye to Reach" Carnage, but finding an organizer who was available and willing to host took a long time and a lot of work. If I became an organizer myself it would make things a lot easier and streamlined. 2. I see us enacting Carnages. Many more Carnages. More in next answer. 3. Ideas? Well, I've had this idea floating around my head for a while. Basically, a summer league. You sign up, and are placed on one of two teams. Let's say Red and Blue for now. As each carnage is holding signups, you sign up for spots on your respective team. Whichever team wins the Carnge gets a point. Whichever team has the most points by the end of summer wins for that year. I chose Summer because it's a good length (2-3 months), and because people are often more available to play then. I would love to act on this idea as an Organizer. Anyways, that a new idea I would implement. The whole community could get involved. 4. East Cost of the US (EST) Bonus: I'm secretly Batman, Chuck Norris, and Master Chief. You pretty much have to make me an Organizer. :p
