Blingx3 Posted November 25, 2015 Share Posted November 25, 2015 (edited) BYOND key: Blingx3 Character names: Tony Smith, Joy Smith, BIB (AI/pAI), Jim James, Sharp Max, Chris Outfield How long have you been playing on Aurora?: Septemper, 2014 Why do you wish to be on the whitelist?: I'd like to be involved more in decision making as well as experience the different setting of playing a head of staff as it is an entirely different experince from playing a lower-grade crew member, as crew look at you for leadership and guidence. Why did you come to Aurora?: Aurora has been what you say a once in week thing for me when I started, but as I played more I found out the depth of this community, the great feeling to be involved in it. Playing in Aurora as a heavy RP server is nothing less than a gem among the other servers because of the dedication and effort put in this server. And the admins, oh my god.. I just love them. Have you read the BS12 wiki on the head roles you plan on playing?: Yes,thoroughly. Please provide well articulated answers to the following questions in a paragraph each. Give a definition of what you think roleplay is, and should be about: Roleplaying is assuming the role, skills, knowledge, lifestyle, and personality and putting yourself in the shoes of your character. making the choices your character would make. Roleplaying should be about interaction mainly, not with other players only but with the atmosphere around you, and how you can use it to influence the ongoing roleplay and add to the situation. What do you think the OOC purpose of a Head of Staff is, ingame?: The purpose of heads of staff include guiding other players and being a good example of good roleplay and decisions. Departments supervision is an important part of a head of staff job, as they must see that it runs smooth and productive, and keep the staff of the assigned department in line. What do you think the OOC responsibilities of Whitelisted players are to other players, and how would you strive to uphold them?: Being the highest commanding personnal in a round, they are looked up to by the crew. It is very important for a head of staff to have a good knowledge in the field they're working in, as for me I've spent most of my time in science and have a good enough knowledge in that field, not having the enough knowledge as a head of staff can leave a bad impression. helping other players who are just diving into a new field is a responsibility for the head of staff aswell, to provide instruction and guidence.

Killerhurtz Posted November 25, 2015 Share Posted November 25, 2015 +1 BIB best pAI. But seriously though - as far as I can tell, Bling is an awesome and responsible player. They'd do well in a Head role. Link to comment
Mofo1995 Posted November 25, 2015 Share Posted November 25, 2015 +1, when I was new Tony Smith really helped me out, and I think Bling is a good role-player. Also, I really liked the back story, the character seems like a normal guy, 0 dead parents during childhood was refreshing. There was also time when Tony Smith had to act as an acting RD, and I believe he did a good job of holding the department together during a changing situation. Link to comment
CampinKiller Posted November 27, 2015 Share Posted November 27, 2015 +1. Had good RP experiences with Bling. Roleplays characters excellently, and also has done good when an antag, that I've seen. Link to comment
Guest Posted November 27, 2015 Share Posted November 27, 2015 +1. Seen him about and have been observing, his characters are interesting and so is his antag play. He's a great guy. Link to comment
Fire and Glory Posted November 27, 2015 Share Posted November 27, 2015 Bling seems pretty competent and I'm sure he'll do well as a Head, he's a nice guy. I'd give 1+ for well written backstory as well but mate, I'd go on at least two spelling error sweeps on that thing if I were you. Spelling errors aside it seems pretty good. Link to comment
Frances Posted November 28, 2015 Share Posted November 28, 2015 I've seen Bling mature and develop his roleplay to amazing levels since he first started playing in 2014. I'm really glad to still see him around, and it's definitely one of these "fuck yeah" moments when you look back at someone who used to be a noob and realize how awesome they turned out to be. Echoing what I believe to be the general sentiment here, but I also really think Bling would be a great fit for head roles. Link to comment
Blingx3 Posted December 4, 2015 Author Share Posted December 4, 2015 It's been far too long, can I get this application looked at ? Link to comment
coolbc2000 Posted December 5, 2015 Share Posted December 5, 2015 Bump! +1 From me He is mature and his roleplay is amazing. He would make a great Head. Please do it. Link to comment
Mofo1995 Posted December 13, 2015 Share Posted December 13, 2015 So I just want to say, Bling has been interim research director multiple times and has done a great job at it so far by keeping the whole department in check, while still being a good boss. He really should get this to just cut out the HoP part of it and let him be director. Link to comment
Owen Posted December 13, 2015 Share Posted December 13, 2015 I have been Captain multiple times when Bling was promoted to Interim RD, and from my experience he knows how science works and how to keep them in check. He also managed to keep even Genetics from doing anything without his permission. I would love to see him gain the head roles and I think he would be completely capable with one. Link to comment
SoapyCup Posted December 13, 2015 Share Posted December 13, 2015 I've RP'd with Joy several times, and it's been nothing but good. Bling seems like a responsible person, and I don't see a reason that he shouldn't be able to play HOS. Link to comment
Synnono Posted December 13, 2015 Share Posted December 13, 2015 I've had scenes with both Joy and Tony, and have enjoyed the interactions I've had with the player. I don't see anything crazy in the app that would make me want to say no, either, so I'm saying yes! Please cover the division in paperwork. Link to comment
TishinaStalker Posted December 15, 2015 Share Posted December 15, 2015 Application approved. Glory to Aurora. Link to comment
