Rorman_'s Application [Declined - Jase]

Rorman_

Villager
1. What is your Minecraft username?
Rorman_

2. How old are you?
20

3. What country are you from?
England (The good part in the North with Greggs)

4. Have you read the King's Law, Code of Conducts, Official Lore, and the Player Guides yet?
Yes I have.

5. In your own words, how would you define metagaming and powergaming?
After DMing Dungeons and Dragons for the last 4 years metagaming and min-maxing is something that is really a big turn off honestly, it took my group quite some time to learn not to do so. In short it's boring and it ruins a lot of the fun. How I would define metagaming is using knowledge your character doesn't know or could possibly know be that knowledge of names, locations or just general knowledge they shouldn't have. Powergaming is more a grinding to be overpowered and never die such as making some form of farm to automate say xp farming overpowered weapons or using roleplay to make yourself more powerful because say something hasn't gone your way or just because(Kind of how they just get randomly more powerful in DBZ).

6. Do we allow X-Raying mods or X-Ray texture packs on the server?
No. (The man who discovered the X-Ray killed his wife in the progress)

7. Name one of our current Mentors.
Jase!

8. Tell us about yourself!
I'm some potato who made the poor choice of going to university the other year to do this terrible thing called computing and now I slap my head against my keyboard and SQL, JavaScript and HTML comes out. Between crying over assignments I play too many video games such as DotA, Isaac, Sea of Thieves, D&D and Urealms, they're possibly the reason why I get so very close to missing deadlines. Not only can I slap one type of keyboard but I guess I'm able to slap the other type of keyboard that makes music which my dog then barks at and personally I think she doesn't like the sound of it. I can probably drink a bottle of vodka faster than you too but that's for another time.

9. Do you have any examples of your work?
Yes, yes I do.

10. Did anyone refer you? If not, how did you find our server?
No. I found it through the magic of the internet or some server list.

Character Name:
Morgan Monsoon

Character Age:
25

Character Race:
Human

Appearance:
In all honesty character description is not my strong suit but here goes.
Black average length hair and mildly messy, blue eyes, pale skin, average to thin build with a height of 6 foot (Why we use feet in the UK to describe height baffles me).
Scares and marking found on lower back. Inset eyes and a long mustache that is thick and black with a sharp nose and thick dark eyebrows. Has a jaw line for days.


Written Test!
After 5 long years of sailing and getting lost for most of that time then ending up on a remote island in the middle of who knows where with some odd group of remote tribes people learning about what they called 'tree law' and being marked by these people with marks and scares to last the rest of Morgan's life he had escaped from the savage people back to Storm's landing. Now returning to a structured land with civilized people with no one knowing his name or where he comes from Morgan plans to rebuild his life and return to what he was doing before he left in the first place of which was training in the arts of the theater, to become one of the greatest actors in the land and all to know his name, along with opening the grandest theater in both this life and the next, where in this life he wants the high born of Storm's landing to step foot in his theater and see him preform in the next he wants to see the dead of Port Silver instead and those his family knew many, many years ago who lived in the beautiful town of Heaven's Reach. Whilst working on his dreams in life Morgan plans to also find his family that he hasn't seen in the last 5 years and try to make amends with them being the reason he left sailing from his father's coldness, though his father claims he was training his son for his future of owning the family fishery which has been owned for several generations Morgan clearly has other plans.

Hey Rorman_ ! Thanks for applying to Hollowworld! Unfortunately, there are a few things which I have to address before I can accept your application.
  • Your power-gaming and metagaming definitions are missing. Server definitions can be found [here].
  • The current Mentor's list can be found [here]. (Or add my name down there!)
  • Your written test is short of a minimum of 400 words. Please expand your written test. Try to be creative and show who your character is, what they do and how they interact with others.
Once you have made the relevant edits to the above application, please let me know by replying to this thread and I will take another look at it!

Noticed some edits so here goes
  • Your metagaming definition is good, but your power-gaming is not quite right. Please try to relate the definition to roleplay. Again, server definitions can be found [here].
  • I am not too sure if you made any changes to your written test but if you did -- it is still a little short of the minimum of 400 words. Also, feel free to look through previously accepted applications for inspiration. :)
Keep up the good work !! And again let me know when you want me to check this again by replying to this thread.

Sorry Jase, I got swamped with dead lines and forgot to update this in between writing terrible, terrible SQL and PHP. I will actually fix this soon™ (Like Saturday seeing as this stuff needs to be in for Friday.)

This application has been denied for inactivity, so I am going to have to ask you to make a new application.

Copy paste of above is fine - with the appropriate edits of course! :)
