Steam ID: STEAM_0:0:523425845


What's your name in-game? How long do you have in-game?: Drake. Around a month.


Do you have any bans/warns?: I remember getting a single warning for accidentally killing a staff member in the SSR on my first day in the server, so yes.


Age (Minimum 15): 16.


Do you have a microphone? (Required): Yes.


Do you have TeamSpeak? If so what is your TeamSpeak Name?: Yes, it is Drake/Grubs.


Do you have Discord? If so what is your discord name and ID?: Yes, it is Vibe Check Lord#0607


Are you currently staff on a different server? Are you willing to leave that staff position for the one you are applying for?: Not on Gmod, no, but I would put off being a staff member on that game server to assist in Revival as a GameMaker.


---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Experience with staffing (ULX, other servers, etc.): Quite a bit when it comes to using commands and such... But will most likely need help learning more.


How active will you be on the server?: Almost every day unless something comes up, which rarely happens. Otherwise I'm extremely active. I'm on the server about 7 hours at a time and get on once or twice.


Days, Hours Of Availability: 11:30 AM CST - 10:00 PM CST Approximately.


Explain why you're a better candidate than other candidates (75+ words): To be honest I feel equal when compared to others on here, or even less when it comes down to overall experience. But I will say that I plan on better planning and adding more RP into further events if allowed to become a GameMaker, which I notice an overall lack of in current events (no offense). I hope to give a satisfactory feeling in the players when it comes to the story and actual roleplay in the events and not just leave them with the "shoot at the bad guys" mission that leaves a bad taste in my mouth... I also have over 5 years of experience being a Dungeon Master for a long running campaign and even the club organizer for the one at my high school. I've been complimented on my planned campaigns and would say I'm very flexible when it comes to adapting around bumps in the playthrough, such as the event going through an unseen mishap where I can flawlessly steer it back on course without disturbing the flow of the mission.


How do you plan to benefit the server? (50+ words): I plan on assisting my peers with the events, such as providing them ideas or suggestions on placement of characters or even including extra props or event players to add a scene to the mission. I initially plan on spending more time devoted to making a story for events so more experienced GameMakers can carry them out, but I would enjoy it if I got proper training in the tools at my expense so I may help out more! I'm very adaptable when it comes to technology and swear not to give up on being a GameMaker.


List (10) Ulx Commands and what they do (List something other than cloak, ban ,Kick ,Warn ,TP ,Maul ,Slay ,Gag): !god makes you invincible, !blind can, well, blind people, !armor can set someone's armor, !ignite can light people on fire, !jailtp brings a player and jails them in a box, !slap can slap a player and can have set damage values, !strip removes all weapons from the person, !freeze can stop a player from moving, !ragdoll makes a player fall down in ragdoll, and !jail just jails someone in place.


What is In character and what is Out of character?: In character, or IC, is when the current action (talking, RP, or killing) is done in-game and is done by your character, meaning that they are held accountable for the action and can be punished for it. Out of character, or OOC, is when the current action (Talking in an OOC channel, typing in OOC, shooting in SSR) is done in-game by you but doesn't go against your character specifically, though minging around in OOC can still be punishable, just not to your character.


Are you willing to work with a Game Maker Team?: Yes. Though I have been known to get a bit agitated when others work against my original plans on purpose, 2 heads are better than one, and I could take all the help I can get.


What is the purpose of a Game Maker?: From my experience, a GameMaker is meant to help or even make a whole event on the server, either by developing a story or using their vast array of tools to put together the scene and NPCs for the players to either help or kill. It is a GameMaker's duty to keep everyone's attention on the screen when it comes to the event they worked so hard to make.


Give us a full event idea you have. ( 3 Paragraphs):

As the UNSC is deployed, they still receive radio silence from the planet that contacted them earlier about local URF and sympathizers starting to grow wildly, cutting out suddenly during transmission. Marines, Army, and low-ranking SoS are ordered to work together and set up a perimeter around the city, setting up barricades and defenses while Specialists, Agents, ONI, and Spartans would move more into the center of the city and look for survivors or enemies. ONI would soon split off from them as Command tells them he notices a strange signal in a building. A radio jammer.

The Specialists, Agents, and Spartans would locate some civilians hiding out, most injured. One would be an event character URF sympathizer, pretending to be a civilian who's panicking. When they try assisting them in the escort or medical attention, the URF sympathizer will run off screaming, hopefully making the rest follow him, right into a URF ambush! In the meantime, ONI would have taken out the jammer by this time, the signal from earlier coming back and laughing, saying that the URF have taken the city as their own and that the UNSC was too late once again. Other event characters would be URF snipers and slow down the escorting Specialists, Agents, and Spartans that are taking the last civilians. Command would then order all UNSC to return to where Army, Marines, and low-ranking SoS were hanging out at for evac. This is where all hell breaks loose!

UNSC would head over to evac, seeing 2 pelicans come in soon but suddenly get shot down by URF Heavies. With their backs against the wall, they would have to hold out long enough against the URF for another pair of pelicans to come in, and of course, ending it off with a beautiful explosion on the whole city as one last 'Fuck you URF'.

Did any current Gamemaker refer you to apply? If so who?: I asked Nevada if I should and if I even had a chance. He reccomend that I should seeing a current lack of active GameMakers. I also talked to my good friend Matchbook and he said he'd look mine over.


I, Drake, agree and understand that I am not staff, and it is not my job to do staff duties unless there is 0 staff on. I will not use my commands unless needed. I also agree that I will not abuse my powers.


I, Drake, acknowledge that this application is to be filled out with complete honesty. Being accepted will hold me at a higher standard in behavior and demeanor. Not doing my job or abusing will result in an instant demotion.


I, Drake, Swear to uphold the server rules and enforce them and to stay within the limits and rights given to me by my assigned rank within GM's and to keep a calm head and clear judgment when dealing with staff and or players in order to ensure fairness to all who join the server.


And that if I, Drake, am found in violation of the rules I swore to uphold, and of this contract that I can and will be removed from GM's and or staff and forever barred from Re-Applying, along with any other consequences that are deemed necessary.

P.S., as a final note, I'd like to thank the staff member/GameMaker for reading through my application and taking time out of their day just to even consider taking me in as an addition to the GameMaker family. Thank you for your time.

Moved this here and tweaked it one last time because I thought it was supposed to go into Pending but that's for when it's moved and locked. Sorry!

Reading over this, I can see that you have the drive to tell an overarching story. You seem more inclined to do gimmick or unique events. We need more GMs of that flavor to prevent things from being too samey. Honestly, based on the doc, you remind me of myself. You have my support.

Your app is good, but you don't have the proper Steam ID on here. I'll give you a day to fix that and once you've done so, I'll accept your app.

Here's where you can find your Steam ID. https://steamidfinder.com/

Thank you for telling me about that! Haven't been using steam for the longest time so I just grabbed the 17 numbers I saw. All fixed now!

Wait does that mean you're accepting my application or just giving it a +1? Kinda confused since what you said in the pending vs. Just seeing Issue Resolved and a +1.
