Bump!
Now we need a typesetter and a cleaner for Funouhan. The translations are piling up as we speak.
Typesetting test: https://goo.gl/vQuPZA
Cleaning test: https://goo.gl/W41Cvx
Experienced editors can bypass the test by showing us PSDs that showcase their past work. These should have the original layer for us to compare. And we reserve the right not to be impressed and ask for more samples or demand that the applicant takes a test.
Editor's applications may be submitted to me by PM here, at our site (https://www.deathtollscans.net ; to Wraith) at our Discord (https://discord.gg/9kTthjW ; to Wraith) or IRC (http://webchat.irchighway.net/#deathtoll ; to Momimomi); or as a thread in the Join Us section in our site. You may also post them as a response to this thread, whatever floats your boat. Bundle the PSDs in a compressed folder, upload it to a cloud and send the link. Please indicate which series you'd like to work on from the open positions above.

Bump! Things have changed quite a lot in our recruitment needs in the past month, but for now, let me concentrate on projects we'd like to revive or begin, and make this post an invitation to translators.
If you are a translator and interested in joining us to do any of the series listed below, we'd like you to remain aware that as of now we don't have edition staff to make any of them into full-fledged projects. We need you to help us make a bait chapter to fish for edition staff. Translators are the soul of scanlation teams, and that's why we aren't recruiting, but inviting you to join us and search for the staff to work on series both you and Death Toll want to do. We'll use the current staff to make just one chapter, then cross our fingers and release it to see if we can catch some editors. When we get them, we'll be able to turn the bait into a project.
The list that follows was generated based on suggestions by our editors. A condition to suggesting something is to be able to help in scanlating it in case a translator shows up, so we have at least one of the positions filled for all of them.
And if you agree to work on any of these, but have another series you'd like to make (a couple genre restrictions apply), we'll do our best to get you a team, too.
- King of Ants (seinen, action, drama)
- Diamond Cut Diamond (shounen, supernatural)
- Demon Assassins (shounen, supernatural, action)
- ReMember (seinen, action, historical)
- Broken Blade (seinen, mecha)
- Sakura Device (shounen, comedy, harem)
- Psycho Bank (adventure, sci-fi, seinen)
- Hshs Sasero!! (seinen, supernatural)
- Seifuku Aventure (seinen, comedy, romance)
- Soft Metal Vampire (seinen, action, comedy, mature, sci-fi)
- Demon 72 (seinen, action, supernatural)
- Chrome Breaker (shounen, action, supernatural)
- Yondemasu yo, azazel-san (seinen, action, mystery, supernatural)
- Yamikin Ushijima-kun (seinen, mature, psychological)
- Beast of East - Touhou Memairoku (seinen, vintage, drama, fantasy, historical)
- Akuma no Hanayome (shoujo, vintage, horror, fantasy, romance)
- Ryuuma no Gagou (seinen, action, fantasy, sci-fi)
- Zangekikan (shoujo, vintage, horror, mature)
- Kuusou Kagaku Edison (seinen, vintage, mecha, drama)
- Trash. (seinen, adult, sci-fi; yuri side events are acceptable - we don’t do stories centered on BL, GL or hentai)
- Waltz (seinen, action, tragedy)
- Zodiac Game (shounen, action, mystery, supernatural)
- Soukai no Eve (seinen, adventure, supernatural)
- Cry eye (seinen, action, horror, comedy)
- 地上100 階〈脱出確萃〉(no idea; Kabuto wanna do it)
- X-Gene (seinen, action, sci-fi)
- Tensozoro (seinen, adult, drama, historical)
- Kore Kutte Meshi! (seinen, slice of life)
- Togari Shiro (seinen, action, tragedy, supernatural)
All the names of series can be found in Mangaupdates.
Here's our translation test: https://i.imgur.com/blqk3D8.png
If you are experienced, you can bypass the test by showing us a sample of previous work. But please do include a link for the raws so we can compare. And we reserve the right to request that you take a test anyway if the sample isn't convincing.
You must submit your test as a private message to me here, or to Wraith via Discord (https://discord.gg/9kTthjW) or our website at deathtollscans.net . You may also submit it to Momimomi, our Head Translator, as a direct message in our IRC channel at http://webchat.irchighway.net/#deathtoll

Open positions (ways to bypass a test below this section)
(Note about the recruitment for Rain: We're caught up with volume raws, and the next volume is only out in December. We're trying to recruit in advance so that we won't have to scramble around when the time comes. If you apply early and pass, we'll keep you busy with occasional odd jobs, or you can just wait it out. At least, we think it's better than not recruiting at all.)
