Past experiences as a Game Master: [Optional] I was GM for Gaminglight SWRP about 4 years ago
Why should we choose you over other applicants?:

I like to think I have a very creative mind when it comes to creating stories and, in this case, events. I have past experience as a game master and I enjoy playing in events already, which makes me want to create my own. I am capable of fulfilling responsibilities given to me as a GM, as well as performing above standards. I'm willing to explain an event to those who don't understand it, and am willing to remain patient as I do so. I think I've proven myself as someone who has headed events, even when I am not an assisting user, I like to take point whenever organization for an event is needed. 

I also like to think that those who do actual RP with me, both GMs and Players would think my RP is of a higher standard. I also imagine that I've proven my salt with my dedication, as I took time to learn the basics of Medic RP in order to participate in events more often. I enjoy participating in events frequently, whether it be as a leader, a soldier, maybe something more cryptic and evil, and I want to create an RP environment that is more friendly to new users, but where veteran players can still have fun. I believe in authentic roleplay scenarios, and I plan to make my RP as realistic as humanly possible. I have an overall goal in mind as well, and this goal is to include players of ALL factions, from Base to Tier 1, in events, this way, no one would feel left out. I think a reason the activity from users in general is slowly dissipating is because the server is repetitive, as it's just War, Peacetime, War, Peacetime. I think long events to occupy these peacetimes would entertain users.

I also enjoy events that make people tense, that get their hearts beating a little bit. When you give someone something to lose in an event, they get much more serious about it, and I intend to create that type of environment for players overall.
 
Have you ever been banned or punished on any server? If so, Include details:
I was banned once for 2 days for posting a porn link in radio chat, to avoid any confusion of "why would you do that?", the context is very simple, as someone stated "I am getting blacked by 11B", I responded with "Not as blacked as you would be on [insert porn name].com" I had no malicious intent and this whole thing was sorted through.

How much time do you have to contribute to the role?: I play about 3-5 hours a day, so expect about 30 hours a week.

In your own words, what  are the responsibilities of a Gamemaster?: To create an environment in which people can have fun, to create stories that keep people hooked to an event for literal hours on end.
To craft RP scenarios that give players the opportunity to be given a realistic experience that's both tense and fun.

Describe how you would contribute to RP as a part of the Gamemaster team: 
My main concerns as a GM would consist of two main priorities, the players, and the team. It's common knowledge that the current GM team is struggling, not to produce events, but producing events with lore. It's not something done frequently, and I think events that span over several wars would be great, as it would keep people hooked onto a storyline. The players, specifically the newer ones, would need to learn how to RP to begin with, and I intend to assist them in learning how to RP, not only in events, but in basic things as well, i.e. Kidnapping. I also intend on hosting small events with RP behind it. For example, a basic kidnapping scenario that's filled with a genuine line of questions pertaining to a future event.

Explain your single most creative idea for contributing to the RP environment of the server:
An event that, as I mentioned earlier, is a literal "bigger picture", and event that starts off with a small, miniscule event, something that no one would realize would turn into
something bigger, maybe I start a kidnapping event, but this one is special, this event is a catalyst that will begin a chain of events that end at something giant, something grand.
I also want what the main people in the event to be able to change the possible outcome.

Please list and explain 5 unique event ideas of any scale: [Be sure to include any additional context that may be necessary to your explanation]

The Sleeper Agent:

A new recruit has appeared in the US Base. After being trained this person will begin walking around, listening to every last word he hears, watching every last thing in his sight, darting his eyes around. He socializes with people, but only for very short periods of time. A month later (about 10 mins ingame) The General of the Army has received intel about a possible Russian informant within his current FOB. The investigation begins privately between the high ranking officials of the US FOB... It is up to the players after this to find the mole within the allotted period of time (around 10 minutes until war), or else he will escape with gained intel. Should he be found, this Sleeper Agent has already been activated and is combat trained. He will not go down without a fight.

No Signal:

During an Operation, a Russian patrol receives intel on a small Taliban cell near the Radio Tower South East (i think) of Embassy. They begin to head over. The patrol radios in a positive ID on a large group of Taliban armed with assault rifles and large explosive ordinance. They radio in permission to engage, the Russian FOB tells them to engage. 20 minutes later, radio contact is lost. They call a nearby patrol to check it out, but radio contact is lost with them as well. The Russian FOB has lost all radio contact with everyone. Anyone outside of the FOB has no way of contacting home base. The Russian FOB uses SATCOM to call the American FOB, they too confirm that their radio is down. Russia assumes it has something to do with the Taliban and organized a small force to begin an assault on the Radio Tower to investigate. At this point in the event, there will actually be a choice, this choice will be if Russia asks the US for help, or will they lie about the situation and not ask for help. The Russians begin their assault, and with overwhelming power, clear the area and find what appears to be a radio jammer, but this one is very technologically advanced...
how interesting.

The PMC Heist:

The US FOB has received intel on something the RU FOB has been building hidden away in their underground tunnels. The Americans want to receive intel on what this device is, and possibly use it to their advantage. Instead of sending in blatant American soldiers, they opt for a more lowkey tactic. They plan on sending in Mercenaries, and hiding some US Soldiers amongst them. These mercs are supposed to pose as Taliban to give Russia the idea that it was the Taliban who raided them for their device, not the Americans. This event can go one of two ways. If they can successfully get to and retrieve the device, the Americans will discover what it is and use it, however, should this raid fail, the Russians will complete their device, and it's true identity and use will never be found out... for now, at least.

The PMC Heist, the US fails:

The US has attempted a raid on the RU FOB using a PMC with US Soldiers hidden amongst them. They failed, the small army was forced to retreat back to their temporary FOB in Shipment. Men were lost, obviously, and upon investigation, the Russians find some of these deceased men wearing dog tags They immediately figure out what was going on, and they begin to investigate... Hours later, their production is complete. The device isn't a device at all. It's a weapon, person, a superhuman experiment. The Russians opt to test their new experiment on the people who just raided them. Spetsgruppa V tailed the retreating soldiers back to Shipment. This only people aware of this Super Soldier experiment are the Leaders of SOC factions, and the generals of Russia. The RU FOB begins preparations of the Super Soldier, activating it like a sleeper agent. They sneak him out of the base by putting him in normal enlisted clothing and escort him to COMMS and setup a temporary FOB there. This Super Soldier is then given instructions, and heads off to Shipment, where the rampage would begin, but not end...

The PMC Heist, the US succeeds:

The US has attempted a raid on the RU FOB using a PMC with US Soldiers hidden amongst them. Upon clearing the first wave of enemies, they come to a false wall. After using a breaching charge, the wall blows open, and they find a man with IVs in his body, pads on his chest, needles in his arms and scars all over his body. He is sitting upright in a bed. The PMC and US have four options here. They can either take the man and leave, they can investigate the room, in which they will find a book, this book contains the words to activate this superhuman experiment. They can take the book and the man. Their third option is to take ONLY the book but not the man, and their fourth option is to leave and not investigate the room. Should the US choose to investigate, they will have to fight of a second wave of enemies, potentially causing the loss of the raid. Should they take the only the man, they bring him back to Shipment. Here the RU will have a chance to retrieve the man, should they succeed, then the events of the US failing their original raid will be pan out. Should the RU fail, the man would be then taken back to the US FOB after scouts return with no sightings of them being watched. After returning to the US FOB, the US would obviously figure out what the man is. A superhuman experiment. Now, the US have a choice here as well, they can dispose of the experiment by cremating it, or they can attempt to use it.
Without the book, the only way to use it is to kidnap a Russian Officer, as they would know the method of awaking and utilizing the Super Soldier. Should they opt to take the book and the man, the kidnapping would not be necessary. Should the soldier be activated, the US FOB decides to use it on a Russian Patrol, in which it would begin its rampage, but not end...

So starting with this entire application, you have shown and proven to me that you are capable of doing great rp. With this I am hoping if you get accepted you will be more on the "chill" side when doing things and stuff since apparently you're  toxic to some people. Your event ideas are good and you have done well in multiple events I have hosted, I say you would be a great GM.

You're pretty chill and I've seen you do a lot with enlisted in terms of "non-event" roleplay stuff.
Your ideas sound pretty nice and I wish you the best of luck

[sixty 56]

So I'm not going to say "oh your chill and are cool in TS and I've talked to you for a while" I've seen your maturity change through the changing of the maps on MRP and you getting JLT in SSO. I'd say from Omega you've improved and would make a great GM. Your expression and passion in this application itself proves to me, although I'm not staff, that you are fully capable to make events happen and have a great impact on MRP. I wish you the best of luck.

Lucher I literally told you to apply lol.

For anyone that doesn't know, Lucher is the number one person on RU that I go to for basically all event purposes. When I do small passive RP events where players are left to ad lib and come up with their own ideas for the story, Lucher takes this in stride, and shows extreme creativity but also competence. This is someone who I believe can greatly impact the GM team and the overall RP environment of the server. Large events with RP are extremely hard to organize when there are more than one faction involved, and many times, Lucher has alleviated the stress of it by completely taking over for RU.

Fat +1 overall his time in SSO and he said it to me a few times that his main goal is to boost the RP and he is everyday doing that with a Titan class. So think what he can do with a GM. Good luck to you my fellow SSO and friend!

Everything I want to say has already been said. You'd make a great GM, active in TeamSpeak and in game. Also I know fetn wouldn't give you his referral if you wouldn't make a good gm

[Dillan 750]
