# Auditor

What we used to call the top-ranked AuditExperts until the above are those who rank in the top 10% of the ecosystem and are referred to as AuditExperts. The others are simply called Auditors.

From among the AuditExperts, an AuditMaster is selected to lead the contest.

AuditExperts receive a DM each time a contest is held and are chosen as AuditMasters by submitting their candidacy.

After 72 hours, AuditDAO will select the highest ranked AuditExpert and notify him or her as AuditMaster of the Audit. If the AuditExpert does not confirm his/her participation within that 72-hour period, the AuditDAO will select the next highest-ranked AuditExpert (from the pool of candidates) and make him/her the AuditMaster.
