Yes
5. In your own words, how would you define metagaming and powergaming?
Metagaming: When a player or players use out of character knowledge to pursue an In character goal. Such as someone telling you that they killed someone ooc and then using said ooc knowledge to get that character arrested or executed
Powergaming: In D&D terms one would call this “Rolling for stats”. Powergamers often try to use various roleplay mechanics in order to game the system. For example, an archer shoots you in the knee (Love Elder Scrolls) and you state “well, because of my higher than the average bear’s constitution (or something) I take no damage.” Really its just a way to play the system.

No

8. Tell us about yourself!
I am a college student enrolled in Kansas State University. When I have free time, I enjoy writing, reading, playing games, and swimming. I speak a decent amount of German. I also enjoy singing in choirs and other various ensembles. And I partake in a few games of D&D every so often. I DM more frequently than play, but it’s fun all the same
9. Do you have any examples of your work?
Not today no.
10. Did anyone refer you? If not, how did you find our server?
I was not referred. Quite honestly, I have been looking for a RP server for some time. Just as another RP game type that I can do. I really enjoy doing rp and it often gives me inspiration for my writing.

“So get this right. I was returning from a good ole fishin’ trip with the lads. I got ta me house door an’ all there was was a door frame! Someone bloody stole mah door! I dunno how they did it, but it was quite the sight it was. So, ah set out ta do some inves-inves… askin’ questions an’ the lot right. Two o’ mah neighbors says that someone came from down the road aways an starts unscrewin’ mah door. I was rather fond o’ tha’ door since it was comin’ from me own paps ‘ands. Me paps died some years ago an’ this door was bein’ one o’ the only things I ‘ad left of ‘im. So’s I ask around some more, an’ ya wouldn’t ‘ave guessed who dun it. I still dunno why, but mah neighbor from down the way, an’ ah swears I seen it with all the things of my bean… or somethin’, ‘e was tryin’ ta lodge mah door through ‘is. I could see its big ole flower on it. One thing about this door, i’ ‘ad a huge ole poppy or somefin. Righ’ straight in the center. An’ I sees this, an’ I says ta me mate Jake, good guy that Jake, I says ‘Bloody guy over ‘ere ‘as me door!’ ‘e turns an’ sure as the grass is green, ‘e sees it to. So ‘e yells down that road and ‘e says “Oi! Mr. Monty!” ‘is name was, or is, Monty. Can’ remember if the bloke is still alive. Anyways, ‘e says “I think ya go’ mah friend ‘ere’s door! What ya need it for?” Then Monty yells back down the road, an’ ‘e says, I swears it on me paps grave, “Ah jus’ thought it needed a bi’ o’ fixin’. Besides, this ‘ere door is one of the most adoorable things I ever did see.” Yea, I ain’ tellin’ no fib. ‘E took mah door jus’ ta say a stupid joke abou’ i’ bein “cute” or wha’ever. Now, I’m fumin’ a’ this point, an’ so I says to Monty, I says to ‘im “I swear ta all the gods Monty ya best be gettin’ tha’ door where i’ goes or Im’ma sic mah dog a’ ya!” Poppy was a good dog, been five years now that she went off and away somewhere. Anyways. ‘E turns righ’ back ‘round an’ says “I was gonna give ya i’ back Nathan, bu’ I can’ seem to remember where I pu’ the screws.” NOw if’n yer gonna steal a door, ya may as well ‘ave the screws fer it. So I tells ‘im “Monty, ya stupid cabbage’ead. What ya mean ya ain’ know were mah screws are?” An’ ‘e says “No, I foun’ em! They righ’ ‘ere”
Things like tha’ ole Monty was pullin’ all the time. Nothin’ ‘armfull, say, but things tha’ kept our little village interestin’. Well, tha’s all I go’ fer ya barkeep. Now what I owe ya?”
