What is the main realm you play on
Olympus
When did you start playing on ManaCube and what does your activity look like?
I recently came back to playing on Manacube about 1.5 months ago. Initially started on creative, and then made my way to Olympus. As of the time of applying, I have 60 hours on Olympus and play for 2-4 hours every few days. Additionally, I used to play Olympus fairly frequently back when this server was known as Minevast, albeit on a different account.
Why do you want to join the QA team?
I enjoy finding, analyzing and solving problems, especially from a gameplay perspective. In addition, I also enjoy helping players streamline their experience on Olympus. The gamemode is relatively large and has so much that one can learn about. Being on the QA team would allow me to further the intricate workings of Olympus while still contributing to the overall quality of the gamemode, in both qualitative and quantitative terms.
Do you have any experience with game testing/quality assurance?
From about April 2023 - November 2023 I worked as a Gameplay QA Manager for a marketplace studio known as Giggle Block Studios. I was responsible for a team of 4 QA analysts, and our focus was to test all upcoming map releases for marketplace ensuring that their content was not only balanced, but also fair and fun for the players. My primary function was to relay any bugs, issues, or other problems were probably communicated to the respective departments within the studio. I was also responsible for ensuring that the work of my team was doing in a timely manner and was well within the allocated budget. Additionally, I worked on creating informative documents as sources for QA members to reference while working. I also created project-based reports during every test that was completed for upper management.
What qualities or skills do you have that would contribute positively to the QA team?
Given my aforementioned experience, I believe that I have the skillset that is required to succeed as a QA Team Member. Having had the ability to work on the testing for 5+ maps during my time at the studio, I was able to not only learn in depth about the different approaches to QA testing, but also apply them with a high degree of success. I have strong communication skills and am a detail-oriented individual who enjoys analyzing gameplay problems and solving them. Having been given the approach to manage a team of QA analysts, I was able to further develop my collaboration skills in that setting.
