2024 Highlander Staff

First of all, it's 2024! We hope you're excited about what we may have coming this year. Sadly with the new year, come some staff changes. Long-time Highlander Head Admin bird has chosen to step down from her role. bird has been with us for over three years, beginning as a league admin for RSL, and seeing our merge with Respawn League (RSL). We would like to wish bird the best for the future! Stepping up to fill bird's shoes is Sperkle, who everyone has come to know as one of the hardest-working volunteers ozfortress has seen in some time, and I have no doubt that he'll meet the challenge and excel.

So what does the Highlander staff team look like heading into our first season of 2024? Well, we are still talking to some of the applicants, but we are certainly looking for more, so don't hesitate to apply!

Highlander Head Admin

• Sperkle

Highlander League Admins

• Kai
• Oldcustard
• Rainy

We want you!

We are looking to expand the Highlander staff team. If you think you have what it takes, see our Join ozfortress page for more info on the role and how to apply.

We Need You!

Want to kick off 2024 with a bang? If you've ever wanted to contribute to our community then there is no time like the present. Below you can find all the positions available and a reminder of what they entail:

League Administrators

League Admins are responsible for the running of both the Sixes and Highlander seasonal leagues as well as off-season cups and events. From handling match disputes, to seasonal meetings, you will be integral in the successful continuation of ozfortress.
Apply for League Administrator here

League Advisors

Have you heard of the shadow government? Well we don't have that but this is probably the closest thing. Advisors assist League Admins in decision-making around seedings, mercenary requests, transfers and proposed changes for both Sixes and Highlander. We are also looking for out-of-region advisors that can assist our team in the decision making processes listed above for players outside of Australia / New Zealand.
Apply for League Advisor here

Apply for the Anti-cheat Team Here

Ruby on Rails & Sourcemod/Sourcepawn Developers

We're looking for developers for not only our site but also our servers. For the website, developers need to have a working knowledge of Ruby on Rails. As for Source Plugin Developer's, we'll be looking to possibly make modifications and additions to our servers to improve website-server integration.
Apply for Developer positions here

Media Team

The media team is slowly but surely coming to fruition. The goal is to use this team to create season trailers, announcements, frag movies - the possibilities are endless. We're mainly looking for editors, but will be looking to expand the teams' capabilities to produce and bring our ideas to reality!
Apply for the Media Team here

Art Team

Responsible for much of what you see artistically from us, the Art Team has been underutilized in the past, and we're looking to expand. With bigger events planned for 2024 and beyond, expanding our Art Team with talented artists and designers will be crucial.
Apply for the Art Team here

FAQ

How is Voting calculated?

We will use instant runoff voting to calculate the results.

Will we not receive in-game medals if we fail to submit our votes?

We only penalize failure to submit nominations, as we believe that every player should have the chance to be voted for.

How long will it take for Awards to be released?

The release of Awards often varies, but you can expect it usually within a week or two of Voting closing.
