Probably should be the last recruiting post for a while. We want another editor to start editing immediately.
Please join #Chihiro-recruits and apply. We will give you a short test.
Message Kusion if Kristen is not on.

This looks awesome, fun and awesome all over it!
I would love to help out but I’m really crappy at stuff involving computers.
One love and keep on with the sweet job, please! <3
What does an editor even do? I don’t really know.
I would guess it’s checking for spelling/grammatical errors.
If it only involves checking the spelling, grammar, etc. of the subs after translation I might be interested.
Editors check spelling, grammar, and make the sentences sound not so retarded. If you can do this, go ahead an apply for the test.
LMAO at the Hayate script!
Heh. Checking for errors is easy, provided you actually apply correct grammar all the time. (Despite this being the internet, it is suprisingly common.)
It’s the pretty much the rewriting of the sentences that would get me. I spent no less than 20 minutes working on this short post, to convey a thought I had in formulated in my own head. So if I were to apply that to an episode of anime, which has much more dialogue, from a language that’s pretty alien to me… well, I’d give it about 2 months/episode.
Didn’t Kristen say like 1million people will apply for this position?
I mean she did it with the previous railgun I rofled.
In other news, Southrop is home again, so VBund may begin moving soon,
hmm… how can we edit it? you’ll send us the dialogue then send it back to you after? 😀
this sounds interesting XD
What shows do you need the editor for?
Why hello there!
I would love to become one of Chihiro’s editors.
The only problem here would be;
How in the world can I apply?
I am sorry, but I pretty much tried everything, but i can not find the so-called ‘#Chihiro-recruits’-adress.
Could someone please help me?
Thank you.

You need to use an IRC program. First connect to irc.rizon.net, then join the channel #Chihiro-recruits. I personally use ChatZilla, in which case you need to type “/attach irc.rizon.net” and the in the taskbar click IRC -> Join Channel, type “#Chihiro-recruits”, select the top option (it reads create new but it won’t) and then click join.
Ahhh, that explains why my browser would not let me find it. xD
Haha, thank you alot!

can we have a bit more info as to how much time we’d have to invest per week into this, average time needed per episode, and material needed to do the actual work?
Average time per week is going to depend on how many episodes you end up with a week.
As for how much time per episode, I take about 3 hours per episode, but I usually go over each episode 3 times. One pass over an episode would probably take between 40-60 minutes depending on how you work, complexity of the script, etc.
As for materials, you just need something to be able to edit a subtitle file, be that Aegisub or changing it to .txt
> Didn’t Kristen say like 1million people will apply for this position?
Yes. But out of the 1 million people applying for this position, there is a 50% chance that exactly one of them will be any good. 90% of the people who apply as an editor don’t know what an editor does, or how to spell the word “editor”.
