How to use the AM Workspace

The whole job in one loop: track activity → close the month → decide misses → keep the roster honest.

Four ranks, lowest to highest. Rank decides how someone is grouped and sorted in reports — the quota is the same for all of them.

• Moderator — Entry rank, and what a new staff member gets by default.
• Senior Moderator — A moderator with seniority.
• Administrator — Administrators read fuchsia everywhere they appear.
• Senior Administrator — The top of the ladder.

Rank is changed from a person’s profile with the Rank button, and every move is written to their timeline as a promotion or a demotion.

• In-Game — 30 reports a month. Every LOA day in the month lowers the target by 1 — automatically. A result within 5 below the target lands in the grace band: flagged, but no action needed.
• Forum (every rank) — Hard 5 reports. No grace, no LOA scaling — the only relief is a Metric Exception, which must carry a written reason.
• Discord — Tickets are tracked and reported, never judged.

The banner tells you where the monthly cycle stands: due (nobody has started), in progress (a draft exists — resume it), or closed. The four tiles are your to-do radar: pending strike tasks, undecided evaluations, who’s on LOA right now, and anyone at 2+ strikes in 3 months. Every tile links to the page where you act on it.

Below that is the active roster with each person’s latest judged month at a glance. Click anyone to open their profile.

• 1 · Collect — Paste the game panel’s stats dump into the box — names are matched to the roster automatically. Forum totals pre-fill from the forum bot’s sheet (override if wrong); Discord totals are manual — use the Query button to copy a per-person search, run it in Discord, type the count. Log any missing LOAs right here with + LOA.
• 2 · Review — Every person’s staged month: previous totals → new totals → the delta that gets judged. Anomalies are called out (totals going down, 0 forum reports, first months, no panel data). Someone with no panel data can be counted as zero or excluded entirely — your call, one click.
• 3 · Decide — Only the misses appear. For each: Strike (creates a task + Discord ping), Exception (needs a reason, noted on their record), Dismiss, or Later (stays undecided in Discipline). The grace band is listed for awareness — no decision needed.
• 4 · Publish — One action commits everything atomically: snapshots, decisions, strike tasks, then the Discord posts (member digests + 🏆 top stats, both optional).

Your draft autosaves at every step and is shared — another admin can pick up where you left off. Closed the month wrong? Admin → Months → Undo close-out reverses it completely. You can also open next month early from the Close-Out page once the current one is closed — useful for a practice run.

+ Add for one person (Discord ID is the permanent key — names can change freely), + Bulk for a paste-list. Everyone’s card shows their latest month, strikes, and LOA state.

Open a profile to do everything about one person: change their rank, log LOAs, add permanent notes, edit name/forum link, or Remove (rank and full history are preserved). Removed people exist in exactly one place — the Inactive tab on the Staff page — and their profile is where you Reinstate them.

Every quota miss ever, with its outcome: Undecided means it still needs a call — the same Strike / Exception / Dismiss buttons work right here, no need to wait for a close-out. Any decision can be Reopened and re-decided later. The dashboard’s escalation tile (2+ strikes in 3 months) is your cue to look someone up here.

• Month view — Any month’s full picture: per-rank group averages and miss rates, top performers, and every member’s digest. Post to Discord… re-sends a month’s digest/top posts if they never went out.
• Trends — Everyone across the last 3 / 6 / 12 / all months in one grid — each cell is that month’s IG with forum underneath, colored met/grace/missed. The top rows compare each rank month by month. Rightmost columns: average IG and reliability.
• Compare — Pick individuals and compare lifetime totals and reliability side by side.

• Snapshots — The raw committed numbers. Edit or delete a row when something was entered wrong — totals and deltas are edited independently, deliberately.
• Tasks — The work queue (strike tasks land here). Claim, complete, or create general tasks with an optional AM-role ping.
• Months — Each month’s state. Reopen just unlocks it; Undo close-out deletes its snapshots, decisions and pending strike tasks — as if Publish never ran.
• LOAs — Every leave record, deletable if logged wrong.
