Pranksta23 0 Share Posted March 30, 2012 Out-Of-Character Minecraft Account Name: Pranksta23 How old are you?: I am 14 years young, will be turning 15 in July. Time-Zone/Country of Residence: UTC-8, Pacific Time Zone, In Sunny California! Do you have a good grip on the English language/good grammar?: I feel that I have a pretty good sense of English grammar and language, myself being born in Europe and knowing 2 languages. So yes, I would say I have a good knowledge and grip on English grammar and language. Small 2-3 Sentence Description of yourself: I was born in Lithuania which is in Europe where I lived for 2 years, till i moved to California! Now I am in 9th grade, and a person who loves having a good time, being with friends, playing video games, and playing basketball. I hope to when I grow up, to become a video-game designer, specifically Role-Playing games! How much time could you be on the server weekly?: I could spend approxiamtely an hour to about 2 hours and 30 minutes a day. Frankly, it all depends on the homeworkload. Weekends I can play around even hours a day. So weekly i can spend about 9 hours a week. What do you know about Roleplaying? Give a definition of what it means to you: I believe Roleplaying is the act of when you can step into a characters shoes and accomplish a dream that you want to conquer. My character would be a very happy one and somebody you could trust and rely on. What experience have you had in Roleplaying, if any?: I’ve played a couple of Role-Playing Games. When I was younger I played Runescape at times. Also Skyrim is a game that a like a lot and I feel like it so far has been my favorite Role-Playing Game. Hopefully, that will change soon ;) In your own Words, define what the act of Meta-Gaming is: Meta-Gaming could be defined as strategy, action or method used in a game which transcends a prescribed ruleset, uses external factors to affect the game, or goes beyond the supposed limits or environment set by the game. Another definition refers to the game universe outside of the game itself. In simple terms, it is the use of out-of-game information or resources to affect one's in-game decisions. For Example, lets say that Link was saving princess Zelda, he didn't know exactly where she was kept in a prison, but we could just search up on the internet where she was captive. It would be if Link though could do that himself. In your own Words, define what the act of Power-Gaming is: Power-Gaming I would say is when you slack of your character and don't reach the character's full potential of what he could be. You take the easiest path no matter what. What do you expect this server will be like?: I expect it to be a server where you can have a great time; especially due to the role-playing having such a big part in this. It's where you can have fun with your character and just go into a whole new world and work with other players to make the community of the server a great place. What other server(s) have you played on and why did you leave them?: I have played on a Hunger Games server, but it was unfortunately abused by corrupted admin and players, who used hacks to take advantage of the game. That's why I have been looking for a new server, and I feel like I have found a server where I can contribute greatly. Have you read, understood, and agreed to the rules?: I have...twice! Do you promise to abide by said rules, and laws? This includes the Server, Forum, and Teamspeak set Rules: Absolutely. I will do anything to make this server a better community for players and make sure that everyone has a great time! How did you hear about us?: I heard about this server when I saw a video on Youtube of it, and i really liked it and how everyone was in role. Have you voted for the Lord of the Craft on Minestatus? Which vote number were you?:Indeed, I have. I was vote 4166 I believe Have you posted this application on our minecraft forum thread yet?

Now I am an ambitious elf traveling the woods myself looking for a place to settle. It has been 15 years since my parents death, and I am currently 22 years old.

They appear to be trying to steal money from him, how does your character respond? “I’d go up an’ give these'so called warriors 'a taste of thy' own medicine if 'ya ask me. I'd put the poor little halfling in a safe refugee and then take care of them warriors. I’d expect some trouble, knowin' that I won't get questions from those' thugs, so I'd take care of it' the hard way. I surely wouldn't slay them, but rather make sure that they'd think twice about comin' back.” Your character wanders into Alras, and comes across a small stall, behind which a well dressed man is standing. He’s offering various wares, the merchant turns to you and says in a posh accent " 'ello there, what can I do you for today?"

The town guard have gathered, and are asking for assistance to help eliminate them. The leader of the party is offering a reward for any who offer their support. How does your character act on this information?: “I’d most likely jus' go undercover and help the poor' little guards. Take cover' from tree to tree and if' they got it' under control I'd leave them be. If their lives are hangin' by a hair' I'd help them defeat these bandits.” Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
hypercrit 237 Share Posted March 30, 2012 Why did I deny you? Your definition of metagaming was copied from Wikipedia, and it was incorrect because of this. You need to understand what metagaming means for us, not what Wikipedia says it means. Your definition of powergaming was incorrect also. Try to roleplay in the ORQs.
