Hey folks!

It's that time of year again, and our web hosting plan is going to expire soon. Renewing it out-of-pocket can be expensive for the staff, so we're going to be opening donations for a limited time. We've come a long way thanks to member support in this area, and couldn't be more grateful for this - WCO wouldn't be around without you.

In order to make this a fun event and to boost site activity, the staff team has decided to revive an old WCO tradition -- WCOn! For those of you who don't know, WCOn is a week-long event filled to the brim with fun games, activities, and prizes! We will release a schedule at a later date, as it is being prepared. As of now, though, the set dates for WCOn are Sunday, October 23rd - Saturday, October 29th! Events will happen every day from 12 PM - 11 PM Eastern Time!! :heartbounce:

In preparation for a successful WCOn, the staff team is searching for members who are willing to host livestreams for other members to enjoy! If you're interested in becoming an official WCOn streamer, please peruse the information in this thread prior to submitting an application.

The link to the application is below. To the best of your ability, answer each question honestly and as accurately as possible, especially when it comes to indicating your available times. Note that all times listed on the application are in Eastern. If your availability changes after you submit the application, private message a staff member as soon as possible to ensure you're scheduled into an appropriate timeslot!

The last page of the livestreaming application requires you to voice your preference on being a backup. A backup is not the livestreamer for that hour, but is available in the case that the livestreamer cannot make it.

The following question asks how many overall hours you would like to be scheduled as a livestreamer. This does not include the hours you will be a backup (if you'd like to be one at all.) Backups are scheduled as needed, however if you'd only like to commit to a certain amount of timeslots, let us know in the application.

For clarification, using voice chat is not necessary but is optional.

With that said, start the process of securing a place as a WCOn livestreamer by filling out this short and easy application (https://forms.gle/mQMWakdTsgx2yD7p8)!

Note: this form will close October 16, 2022 at 12:00 AM ET. WCOn streamers will be notified of their streaming times after this date.

Livestreamers will have early access to WCOn to allow sufficient time for scheduling and checking in, and these users will receive a temporary rainbow username to indicate their status as an official WCOn livestreamer.

Further questions should be redirected to a staff member. If you're not looking to be a WCOn streamer, consider supporting them by watching the livestreams they work very hard to present - thanks! :)
