As tweeted by Mike Robles and posted on the Hasbro job website, WotC is looking for a Community Manager for MTGO and DotP.

Here's the job listing.

I started the thread to (a) let everyone know the about the position (b) gather feedback on what you want to see from the position.
Magic Online Volunteer Community Lead. • Also assisting the Paper Magic area for the time being.
I'm trying to make my official VCL posts in purple

Unfortunately, VCLs do not currently have the tools necessary to take moderation actions directly. VCLs submit their actions to ORCs, who then actually perform the action. This processing can take between a few minutes and several hours, depending on how busy/attentive the ORCs are.


If you see something that needs VCL attention, please use this thread (MTGO) or this thread (paper) to make a request and a VCL will look at it as soon as possible.  CoC violations should be reported to Customer Service using the "report post" button. Please do not disrupt the thread by making requests of either kind in-thread.

General MTGO FAQ


Yes, the Shuffler is Random!
The definitive thread on the Magic Online shuffler.

Magic Math Made Easy
Draw probabilities, Swiss results, Elo ratings and booster EV

Event EV Calculator
Calculate the EV for any event with a fixed number of rounds and prizes based on record

Dual means two. A duel is a battle between two people. Lands that make two colors of mana are dual lands. A normal Magic battle is a duel.

Thanks to PhoenixLAU for the awesome avatar!

That was my first reaction too. I've already got a tweet in to Robles to find out what's up with that.

They can't pay me enough given my level of education. Which is a shame since, no BS in communication aside, I am probably well-qualified after all these years.

As much as I'd like to see this position come on board, I've lost a bit of faith recently with WotC intrepreting marketing as communication.

That, and I still have nightmares over "He who shall not be named" on these boards.

Later,

Don!

Robvalue is the best candidate for this job. He is all things DOTP. 

Wizards should just hire him.
