It's 15 dollars an hour assuming you work 40 hr a week.
Since NA teams claim to scrim 12 hours a day every day, and since coaches do more than just scrims (look at the list of duties), it is easy to see this job is below minimum wage in California ($9/hr).
Housing, meals and benefits. Also the intangible EFAME And if it's your passion work isn't really work etc etc
Housing/food is not proper compensation. It's still illegal. It's the same as the volunteer analyst.
What do you mean by illegal? I haven't heard anything along those lines before.
My biggest concern here is that the amount of compensation (or in the case of the analyst, no compensation at all) is a violation of California minimum wage law.
I'll admit I'm not entirely sure how it works, but surely housing/food would factor into benefits/compensation above the perceived "$9/hr"?
edit - cuz if I didn't have to pay for rent or food in Cali + getting to watch/coach video games all day... idk, that would probably be pretty fun for a while.
Well it's also salaried so I'm guessing that probably skirts around any minimum wage issues. Housing in California is probably worth $500-1500 a month depending on location/roommates etc. If I were single and qualified I don't think I'd be taking issue with the compensation tbh. Disclaimer: haven't done any research on the matter but I have a feeling Steve is running a legal operation.
I'm a bit late but it's not proper housing if we have the series to go by. You most likely going to be sharing a room with 1 or more people while working 10 hours a day. Most companies that I've seen give housing almost always gives you your own private space even if it's a tad on the small side. I've never heard of a decent job making you share not only a house by a room too.
Just doesn't seem that good a deal with pretty steep requirements. If you want someone really good with experience you got to be willing to pay.
Mumble is really nice, but it depends on somebody to host the server. If their computer is off, so is the server. Right now my local friend group are using Raidcall. All the benefits of mumble without depending on somebody to keep it running.
It's kind of funny that here our ISPs set up Mumble/TS servers and servers for multiplayer games. Always get reminded how that isn't the norm when Americans are talking about stuff.
What happened here was that at the start of the whole internet gaming there wasn't really any private server stuff and internet was rather expensive so ISPs hosted free servers for a bunch of stuff to get gamers buying the faster ISDN lines. A bunch of gamers also worked at ISPs so made things easy. Funnily enough that's actually why we have Dota 2 servers in SA. Mweb(ISP) basically convinced valve to let them have the server boxes in Jhb and I think CPT now which let us get Dota 2 servers! Same thing happened with CSGO. I'm not sure why Latin America were unable to do the same thing.
As for personal home servers on Voip, yea you can use a NAS system pretty easily. Got one at home but I don't really have friends anymore :D. My other friend rents a server box in Europe which he set up for mumble as well. Rather simple to do.
Would people be interested in watching me play rock band 4 when it comes out? I could stream it through the system and I can actually play the game pretty well.

I WOULD BE ALL FUCKING OVER THAT LIKE BUTTER ON FUCKING TOAST.
Seriously, don't even care if you couldn't play the game well. I just fucking love/loved RB that much lol.
Anyone listen to Ludovico Einaudi? When I need some focus work time music I'll go to his stuff occasionally. Not sure where he stands among pianists but I enjoy his work. I expect some covers from HF in 12 months. When I listen to this kind of stuff I'm just reminded I'm more like my dad than I ever though I would be...

Whenever I need to be productive I listen to BBNG or like a Deep House Mix.
