There are four ways to help out refereeing in Empire and there are two areas of training and coaching that you can request

Ref roles:

  • Full time ref - for crew that want to ref the majority of the event
  • Reduced hours ref - similar to full time ref but with less shifts
  • Shift ref - for players wanting to help out for a 5 hour shift
  • Battle ref - players that want to help ref during their monstering battle slot
Role Time commitment Ticket type Meal tickets Backstage access Database access Time off type
Battle ref Monstering battle Player None Limited None Player
Shift ref 1 shift Player 2 Limited When required Event
Reduced hours ref 3 shifts Crew 7 Yes When required Game
Full time ref 5 shifts Crew 7 Yes Yes Game
  • Time commmitment (a shift is ~5 hours) - timings can be flexible as agreed with lead refs but reffing a battle in your monstering slot does not count towards shift reffing as this is covered by play one / monster one requirement. Being coached / trained does not detract from shift time as assumed to be on the job training
  • Backstage access - Access to the Crew Welfare Space for everyone, Crew Party & Crew T-shirts for full and part time only
  • Db access - When require db access will be granted start of shift and removed at end of shift so no pressure to perform ref duties on an off shift
  • Time off type - if playing a character follow the appropriate guidelines for Time off. Note all refs are regularly vetted for rules or conduct infractions
