    Team Sega
    Recent community team photo

    With the departure of RubyEclipse (depicted right), Sega is looking to take on a new Assistant Community Manager. Barring the current Community Manger kellie (depicted bottom), much of the team has been made up of Phantasy Star Game Masters both past and present. Clumsyorchid (depicted left) and Edward@Sega (depicted center) comprise the other two current members.

    To summarize, the community team is Sega's connection to its fanbase. It handles not only the official forums and blogs, but also communications on various social media sites. They bring information to the fans as well as collect feedback from them. Fans often partake in contests and events held by the group. They're also frequently seen showing off upcoming titles at conventions such as SDCC and PAX.

    It should not have to be said, but any future member of this team should be incredibly passionate. Hopefully Sega will be able to find a truly willing and qualified candidate for the position.

      He didn't leave. He was promoted.
      That's why his old position is open.

      So, does this mean PSU will be getting a 2nd GM alongside Edward? Poor bastard, whoever they hire.

      Its true. RubyEclipse is a chunky -after slimming down from obese- former Bay Area Band black man with a side job making all kinds of money with MTV's America's Best Dance Crew.

      I'm sure you're overqualified with your doctorate in business administration and your many years of leading large corporations to success. Go for it!

      I'm still watching from the sidelines, but now I'm focused purely on Sonic titles. It's a really fun (albeit challenging in its own ways) job though - I left it only because a greater opportunity happened to show up at the right time.
      Good luck to everyone applying for the position!

      The Community Manager role is separate from a GM. (Which would be listed simply as Game Master.)
      As a CM, you work on a lot of different games, and many at the same time. Both are fun roles, though a GM position often involves getting mobbed every day upon login.

      I thought we agreed at the SEGA event last year that this was not to be revealed? You just totally blew my cover, Haya!

      Because global servers were the decision of a single person.

      So RubyEclipse is concentrating on Sonic games now?
      Congrats on the promotion!
      Good to hear that you'll be around the community on occation then!
      I know we're hard to please in the forums. So best of luck to the new ACM.
