Why should we choose you over other applicants? [minimum 2 paragraphs]

The two main reasons why I believe I should be chosen over another applicant for becoming a gamemaster is my passion for creativity and my assets as a developer. My passion for creativity is essentially why I want to be a gamemaster because I always love to come up with ideas, whether it’s my own or I get inspiration from others I talk to. I have had experience as a storyteller from working at Walt Disney World and my time in High School doing theater. I think these experiences give me an advantage when it comes to making events and campaigns for Military RP because of all the improvisation that I’ve had to do, which relates to when the mission doesn’t always go as planned. I also have experience being a Dungeon Master for my D&D group that I run with my close friends, in which I have to write campaigns with many details and be prepared for them to go off course.

The other reason I feel like I should be chosen over another applicant is my time and skills as a developer/programmer. I think these assets are important because it shows that I am technically experienced to handle making these campaigns functional. I got my experience from going to college where I got my associates of science in computer programming from which I was able to learn languages such as Lua. I have done some freelance work for friends on Garry’s Mod including coding content and just small server work, but from doing that I feel like I can use that experience to be a successful gamemaster and bring functionality/Realism to any event that I make or assist with. In conclusion I would like to say that I am hopeful to be accepted for this awesome decision and also hopeful to be able to be a part of this awesome community!

 

In your own words, what are the responsibilities of a Game Master?

A gamemaster uses a combination of creativity and tools to bring the roleplaying experience to life. Their responsibilities include creating events during peacetime, interacting with both factions to create immersive scenarios, and maintaining professional etiquette on the server. The gamemaster must remember to be fair and unbiased with their permissions and privileges to ensure integrity of the server.

 

Describe how you would contribute to RP as a part of the Gamemaster team:

I would contribute almost all of my free time to bring the server to life both during the day and night. I want to be able to give everyone a chance regardless of their time zone to find activities and events going on during peacetime. I will make sure that it will not interfere with other factions' tryouts and training. By doing this, it will give people a reason to stay on the server and interact with others to increase server population.

 

Please list and explain 5 unique event ideas designed for only your side to take part in [Be sure to include any additional context that may be necessary to your explanation]:

Bomb Threat / Interrogation 

A bomb threat has been phoned in to the Military Police. The phone signal was traced, and it came from a burner phone from inside the US base. The Military police with the help of selected individuals must interrogate their own to find the culprit by ANY MEANS NECESSARY!

EOD Exercise

A selective group of individuals are tasked with defusing multiple bombs that was discovered just outside of the US base. These individuals must defuse the bomb using any tool at their disposal and the power of rolling (rp)

Car Maintenance

The United States Officers have recruited some of the finest soldiers on base to help work on some faulty cars (drives super-fast / Wheels slide like ice / car keeps catching on fire / etc.…) 

Operation: Deserter

During the recent war, a couple of soldiers have decided to abandon their post and run away. The United States is tasked with retrieving these deserters at any cost, the reward for finding these soldiers is $5,000 alive and $1,000 dead.

The Fast and the Furious

The government has contacted NATO about recruiting internally, they are looking for soldiers to infiltrate race car meetups to hopefully catch these criminals. The US has decided to hold a race to determine which soldier has the BALLS OF STEEL to handle such an important mission. To cover the cost of property damage of US vehicles, the government has provided Vehicles for any participants willing to drive. The race will be from the West Gate to the Air Strip, and back to the West Gate.

 

Please list and explain 3 unique global event idea designed for the entire server to take part in [Be sure to include any additional context that may be necessary to your explanation]:

Taco Bell

The Taliban has set up a meeting with Taco Bell executives to discuss replacing their meat with Goat meat. In return the Executives will have to take the Cheesy Gordita Crunch off their menu. The US officers have gathered this intel and must intercept this meeting and stop the Taliban.

The US must kill the Taliban AND the goats (AND taint the goat meat via burning/charring the bodies), and capture the Taco Bell Executives and convince them to keep the Cheesy Gordita Crunch on their menu

The US must safely escort the Executives to the Air Strip so they can leave on their helicopter.

The Taliban must fortify and hold off the US advances until a decision is made, the Taliban must be able to convince the executives by rolling exactly a 100, 3 times before the US wipes them out.

 

Vehicular Warfare

The United States and the Taliban decided that enough is enough, both sides decided to send all their armed vehicles towards town center to finally claim it once and for all.

Both sides will have access to vehicles with turrets/cannons, the Taliban will have RPG’s and the United States will have Anti-Vehicle Mines/Proximity Mines

One life only, cannot return to the battle once dead. Victory is when one sides vehicles are all destroyed.

 

Nuclear Codes

The old factory’s secret Nuclear Silo (underneath the factory) has finally become armed! Both the US and Tali have gotten wind of this information and decide to take action.

The Silo was armed by an anonymous hacker, who has released a variety of codes in different parts around Air Strip and Town Center. Both sides must find the clues and decipher the answer to disarming (US) or firing (Tali) the Nukes.

The codes will be “text screens” with a combination i.e., “6:E” which represents the 6th letter in the code is “E”

The first faction to decode the password and enter it into a Module at Factory will be victorious. For extra fun, if the Tali wins, just blow up a bunch of US at the base.

+1 Very Good guy He would do well :flushed:

 

[Papamid 42]

+1

Let me start off by saying that these are some pretty good event ideas, I especially like the Taco Bell one, it would bring a different pace to the server and would make for a unique experience.

Secondly I think that Daredevil is a pretty sound guy, he is always active, and is striving to make the server a better place, especially more enjoyable.

This is a no brainer for me, best of luck to you Daredevil I know you will do great.

+1 All the ideas all look interesting i say let this guy have a shot on the GM team I wish you luck 

[shax999 148]

+1 The team is short staffed on GMs. Give the guy a chance to see what he will do. Events seem fine but a few of the US sided events can easily be done without the necessities of a GMs tools. 

Eod Exercise
Operation : Deserter
The Fast and The Furious

Those events can easily be done without the tools but everything else is well worded and properly answered.

+1 

Looks to know what he is doing with the events. In addition, he is a well operating and friendly person in the community. I have spoken and worked with this guy many times and he represents well and consistently works to help out GB and thus the server. Ideal person to be a staff member (GM is a staff member to me).
