The
Plot in Our Hearts

There are so many quotes that indicate the importance of plot within various stories, which give stories a certain amount of richness and intrigue. It is the backbone of writing and for a text-based RPG like World of Potter, it is clear that it also has an importance here.

The Plot Team on World of Potter is the team, which focuses on events on the site. They are the people around the site, who share a love for plotting and planning various events, competitions or storylines, which can challenge users on both creativity and writing, while also trying to inspire them to write more. You will know these wonderful people by the lilac name colour, but they might go by another name like their mascot the Flamingos.

In the previous years, there have been a lot of events, which has either caused joy or disaster for the various users on site in their roleplaying adventures. It was everything from a Lovey Dovey Carnival in Hogsmeade around Valentine’s Day or a giant battle where it was up to the students of Hogwarts to defeat their brainwashed professors.

The Plot Team is a team, which thrives in bigger teams, which gives them bigger opportunities to create bigger and better plots that can bring the users together. However, we also find some of the smaller events and competitions they make incredibly fun and creative.

At the time of writing, a new competition is currently underway, which allows users to choose between two wonderfully imagined prompts. You can find this plot here: https://worldofpotter.eu/media/article/9c06ed1c-e88b-44a0-85eb-f4a1de0b7630

Giving users that participate gifts for joining in and of course the top three entries will be given prizes as well. There is so much that can be done through competitions, like a Quiz Night in the site chat, where people can just relax or have a bit of fun with some of the other users. Challenges that can be set for the next in-game school year, which will end up having some rewards at the end of the school year.

The team is currently in need of people to join its ranks, and we would love to see more wonderful people join up and share in the magic of creativity.

In order to apply to join the Plot Team, you just need to live up to these requirements:

• Be 13 years old or older IRL
• Be an active member of the site
• Possess a backstory with a minimum of 50 words, as the rules of the site require
• Have the time and the will to cooperate with a dynamic team in order to brainstorm, plan and realize community-involving events
• Know the site's rules and be respectful to other users and the community in general.
• Stay within the job limits

If you can nod yes to these requirements, we would love for you to send an application with these points mentioned:

• Your World of Potter EU username
• Your IRL age
• Any past/current job experience in WoP or WoX in general (Note: having past experiences is not a requirement and, in case you don't, it won't interfere with the application review)
• A short introduction paragraph about yourself
• Why are you interested in the PLOT Team? How can you contribute to it?
• A Plot Idea. (Note: feel free to let your creativity do the work here. It doesn't need to be fully developed with described NPCs, posts etc. - You can just talk about your idea: what's the main plot of the story? Is there something or someone relevant the participants could bump into? Add whatever else you want!)
• Names of ALL your extra users on the site, if you have any. Also any users on other WoX sites, which have a job.

Your application must be sent to plotteam@worldofpotter.eu with "[Your WoP Name] - Plot Team Application" as the subject.

Just a tip to make sure your application is considered. It is best to be descriptive in your application and not just go through each point one by one, as our wonderful Plot Team Leader will need to get to know who you are. A more detailed application will always score you some points, one that is really personal, we want as many people in the teams on site and want to help the best we can.

If you need some guiders on how to send a successful application, perhaps read one of the former blogs, which focused on exactly that: https://worldofpotter.eu/blog/cc3138a8-62cd-41ea-8feb-8a630355739c/how-to-write-an-application
