Ceremony to Announce Newly Appointed Scouts/Scythes/Mods!

Hear ye, hear ye,

There is something in the air.  Can you smell it?  It’s the smell of new promotions!  Soon there will be shiny new Mods, Scouts and Scythes in your midst, ready to do their duties as the GrimReaper seems fit.

Please join us in chat tomorrow, Friday, May 8th at 2 PM EDT, where we will be announcing new Scouts, Scythes and Mods!  It’s time to congratulate your fellow players on their great accomplishments!

*Players are now being promoted based on game play accuracy, activity, and interaction with the Eyewire community.  We are no longer using the Hunt as our main vehicle for Scout/Scythe promotion.  If you are being considered for promotion you will receive an email from Eyewire HQ shortly.

Learn a little about these important jobs below:

Clothed in robes of purple, the Mods are Eyewire’s peacekeepers.  They help n00bs learn the ropes and keep the trolls at bay.  Mods are powerful players with mystical powers.  You don’t want to get on their bad side.

Peering through their sky blue telescopes, Scouts are the eyes of Eyewire.  They hide behind bushes and lurk around corners, always on the look out for those terrible and elusive mergers.  When they capture a merger they’ll pierce it with a sunny yellow flag, and wait for a Scythe or Admin to come finish the job.

In glowing turquoise armor, Scythes are Eyewires most powerful players next to Admins and the GrimReaper.  Working in tandem, two Scythes are usually enough to obliterate devious mergers or conjure up branches where they fall short.  Scythes have fiery orange flags that show up wherever they work.
