List all (if any) previous punishments (Warns/Bans)
Reprimanded for killing an anarchist who was stealing from the gun locker and turned around with gun in hand


What is your reason(s) for applying for Gamemaster?
I was a gamemaster before in a CWRP server that's been shut down



Have you ever been Event Staff or something similar before? If so, list your previous positions.
Gamemaster



Describe how you react to negative feedback, from constructive criticism to borderline harassment.
I take all feedback and work it in to my projects, I don't like harrasment



While planning a server-wide Event you realized that it would make hosting it much easier if you had another Gamemaster assisting you, and manage to get someone to help. Unfortunately 5 minutes before the Event is scheduled to begin, they messaged you and said they would be absent. How do you proceed?
Delay the event for up to am hour and ask to if another Gamemaster can help out, if there is one go over the event with him and then proceed with the event, if no then talk with the Gamemaster and find a time for it to work out and delay it until then.



While planning an Event, you decide to test some of the tools you think would be helpful. You go to the admin room, and start to experiment. Unfortunately, while testing with some NPCs the server crashed. How do you react?
Talk to the staff and explain what happened



An NCO has finished training a Recruit, but there are no COs or Staff online to provide the whitelist. What do you do?
Give him the whitelist 



While hosting a server-wide Event you have implemented a RP section where players can interact with a computer in order to open a door. Unexpectedly, a CO decides that they would rather that door stay closed (Presumably so that the other side cannot continue), and orders that the computer be destroyed. Given that the door is essential to progressing your event, how do you react?
Pop in and tell them that it cannot be destroyed for event progression 



While hosting a server-wide Event, a CmD/MAJ decides that they dislike it, and begin to openly attempt to get players to refuse to participate. This reaches the point that there are almost no players participating on one side. How do you resolve the situation?
Report the CmD/MAJ to a staff member at let them deal with them and try to get the players to engage



After hosting a server-wide Event, you are in the middle of a post-event Debrief when the COs present tell you to stop hosting your DB so they can host theirs. How do you react?
Tell them to wait as they cannot do their DB right after mine



What permissions do Gamemasters have, both inside and outside of Events?
Spawn menu, toolgun, phys gun, and some commands



While preparing to host an Event, you notice that there are 3 vehicles deployed, and that the server is lagging a bit because of that. What do you do?
Request that one vehicle be removed



Describe your design process of Events prior to queuing them.
Brainstorm>Idea>Design>Fix any wrong details>Queue



Create three Event ideas and describe them below. Be as detailed as you feel necessary. Originality is appreciated, and a lack of details will be penalized.

1. Xen creatures start appearing in the city/map and the combine and rebels must decide to work together to stop the xen creatures or continue to but heads with eachother

2. an Anarchist group is fighting against both combine AND rebels both struggle to deal with them and must come together to defeat the anarchists

3. (I ran out of ideas)



How often do you think GMs should host events?
1-2 a week


Do you understand and accept the following clause: I will not leak Staff or Gamemaster information, I will not abuse my powers, and I will not break the Gamemaster rules.
yes



Do you understand the basics of using ULX? List what you know
none

Hello.

Before I can provide an evaluation of your application, you need to fix a few things.

I would ask that you edit your existing application instead of posting the updated one as a new reply before doing anything else.

I would also ask that you reevaluate your responses and Event Ideas, and submit a third idea. There is no time limit on creating an application, so not having a third idea tells me you either A) spent 5 minutes on this or B) didn't care enough to spend more time on it. The lack of detail in most of the other questions indicates the same thing(s) to me.

As is, your two ideas have so few details in them that I cannot determine what the players involved would actually be doing. If you do not (or cannot) fix these parts of your application, I will deny it for being incomplete.

My recommendation when coming up with new events, plot it out systematically. I like to go in:
Synopsis (give a quick abstract about what the event is about)
Pre-Event (give it some flavor-text. How did we canonically end up here? This can be optional depending on the event)
Event (give a description of how it will be set up, and the planned mechanics)
Post-Event (describe the rewards that will be given for whatever faction succeeds at whatever task)

Also, I do not inherently foresee Combine working with the Rebels. In a PvP server, two major opposing factions must have some serious reasons to want to cooperate, and with the general mindset of the server, such results are an unlikely outcome.
Plus - I thought you mentioned you were a GM before in your previous experience? Were there no ULX commands for that position?

Denied.

Application is incomplete. While you responded to the user-provided criticism, you did not fulfill the requirements for your application to be evaluated, and did not update your application when notified.


You may reapply in two weeks. (7/28/2023)
