the donkey needs an assistant!

so, while developing, I find myself often doing stuff that anyone can do - but I don't have anyone :P

That's stuff like editing long lists with more or less the same stuff, doing some research, doing more lists, doing some raw balancing, etc.

Now I have no idea if anyone is actually interested in doing this, I'm not saying it's boring stuff, not at all, but it might be repetitive from time to time :)

So if you think this might be something for you, this is what you should have:

- a bit of freetime at your hands, otherwise that won't really make sense - because I have more than enough of no freetime myself :P
- common sense, oh please, common sense!
- basic PC knowledge - if you had trouble installing the mod, this might not your position in the dev team :)
- I must like and trust you, because I can only work with people I like and trust
- You should be interested in learning some new stuff
- any kind of modding experience does help, but I'm perfectly fine if that isn't the case

So why should you do this?
- you will be part of the greatest mod dev team, EVER!
- you can really really REALLY speed up the development of the patch.
- you get to test the newest versions before all the others!
- it will be fun, I promise :P

reply here or by pm
 :twisted:

edit: also, it wouldn't hurt if you would be VERY interested in keeping the community informed about stuff *cough*patchnotes*cough*

I can lend a hand in item balancing and testing stuff if needed. The other stuff is alright, but I feel like this might be the strong point for me. And no, I have no modding experience at all. I dug out modifiers from the itemlist for masterwork weapons if that counts :D

Also, you must be capable of making some damn fine coffee. That's the most important job of an assistant, after all. Or so I hear.
Meaning lies as much
in the mind of the reader
as in the Haiku.

just so there is no misunderstanding - with raw balance I meant some strategus gamebalance stuff, not the crpg item stats, those are in good hands already :)

Is there a template you'd like people applying to fill out? Like a resume of sorts?

your question disqualifies you for the common sense part but the rest is what would be good to know about you to be considered as a candidate :mrgreen:
