Any TD, HTD or
ADMIN having another league name or link on their messengers while td'ing in
foreverspades league will be asked to remove it. Failure to do so or a second
occurrence may result in removal as staff.
TD's will be paid monthly, with
rating points, for hosting 2 vs 2 tourneys on the following schedule:
Hosting 10 - 19 2 vs 2 tourneys for
the month - 75 rating points
Hosting 20 - 29 2 vs 2 tourneys for the month - 100 rating points
Hosting 30 - 49 2 vs 2 tourneys for the month - 125 rating points
Hosting 50 + 2 vs 2 tourneys for the month - 150 rating points
1) TD's on ForeverSpades are asked to take at least one
regular time slot each week if possible.
2) TD's MUST host at least one (1) tournament in a 21 day period.
3) Inactive TD's will receive a reminder email on idle day 14 giving
them 7 days to host.
4) Inactive TD's will be removed on idle day 22.
The TD must reapply if they wish to be reconsidered for a TD position with
the league in the future. This does not apply to any TD who has been given
the "active-exempt status."
4) ACTIVE-EXEMPT REQUEST: Please contact the
TD Manager or other Admin if you feel you have a valid reason for being placed
on active-exempt status. You may continue to play and host while on exempt
status. Active-exempt status will be
granted on an individual basis and for extreme circumstances only and must be
approved by the TD Manager and the Head Admin.
Active-exempt status will be valid for a period no longer than 30 days and
must be renewed by the TD when the 30 day period has expired.
Active-exempt status will be removed on day 30 without having had it renewed. When placed on active-exempt you will lose your regular scheduled tour time
slots. If the time slots are available when you return you may ask for
them back.
5) VACATION REQUEST: TD's unable to fulfill
the minimum requirement due to illness/vacation/personal needs MUST email or
otherwise contact the TD Manager or another Admin. Your request for vacation
status must include your TD name, brief reason for the request, and your
expected date of return. If you do not contact the Admin in charge of TD's
prior to this expected return date, you will automatically be placed back onto
active status. You may not host or participate in any tournaments while on
vacation status.
6) TDs who aren't able to run their regularly scheduled tour should try to
get a sub for their time slot, or try to switch time slots with someone. If
they have tried to find a sub and can't, they need to notify the TD Manager several days in advance, if possible.
7) Please have your regular tournament time slots on the calendar at least
three (3) to seven (7) days in advance. Any time slots not filled may be taken by any TD up to
48 hours prior. In other words, get your regular tours on the
calendar.......if you have a tournament every week on Wednesday.....and it's
not on the schedule ANY TD may take that time up to 2 days prior. Don't wait
until the day before as it may be filled by another TD. This is not to say
you've lost the regular time slot.....but just lost it for that particular
day.
8) New TD's: New tds must complete and
submit the New TD Check off list that is emailed to all new tds when approved.
Once this check off list is returned a trainer will be assigned. Either
the trainer or the TD Manager will change the new td's status from "in
training" to "active" and the training will begin. Once a new TD
is approved they MUST begin training within 14 days
or they will be removed as a td. They can reapply when they feel their
schedules will permit being more active.
HTD POSITIONS:
A TD may request the position of HTD after they have completed a
minimum of 35 tournaments, have been a member of foreverspades no less than
three (3) months and have demonstrated positive contributions to the league showing
loyalty, maturity and a willingness to step in and help other TDs and fill
open slots as needed.
(You must let an admin know if you are interested so when we are looking
to fill or add a HTD position we will know you are interested.)
HTD REQUIREMENTS:
1) HTD's must have a good working knowledge of all
ForeverSpades rules and policies as well as general cases/myleague rules.
2) HTD's will show loyalty, maturity and a willingness to step in
wherever needed.
3) HTD's will step in and run a tour for a missing, no-show TD and
will send the TD Manager a report of such. The TD Manager will report
to the Head Admin who will give the HTD credit for hosting this tourney.
(add to your number of tours hosted)
4) HTD's will create a tour whenever there are members asking for
one, when possible....quickie or full tour.
5) HTD's will host no less than one (1) tour per week and hold at
least one (1) regular time slot unless on active-exempt as stated above.
6) HTD's will support all other TDs and assist them when requested
to do so by the TD without interfering with another TD.
7) HTD's will train new TD's as requested by the TD Manager
8) HTD's & ADMIN's of ForeverSpades League agree not to TD in any
other leagues. To do do so will be grounds for removal of ADMIN or HTD
status and will be put down to TD status in ForeverSpades League. Only
exception will be an interleague league with the approval of ForeverSpades
Admin Team.
9) HTD's will attend at least 70% of the admin meetings held every
Tuesday, 8 PM (EST) and agree not to host or play during this time unless
under extenuating circumstances (ie: no 8 pm tour as of 6 pm Tuesday
evening)
If you have any questions.....please ask.
Thank you,
ForeverSpades Administration
