[quote=Gowi] On pending CS’s from: Thatguy and Ben.I feel a little divided on this one as I have no doubt of the enthusiasm and drive for Ultimate DC in the last few seasons though I do feel I have to stress that while I don’t want to come off as being opposed to Andy’s (and Master Bruce’s) inclusiveness – I feel that to up the quality control of this as a roleplay I have to put some objectivity in the ballpark and concern myself with grammar/spelling and narrative. For Ben, there’s a lot that I see that need to be went over—may I suggest a word processor or something of that effect that covers grammar as well? I don’t want to bar people from the roleplay, but I want to push it to a quality that some of the people I’ve consulted with desire and I can’t promise them quality like this. This is not an outright denial, but I’d like to see more out of the applications (both of them) before I make comments of consideration. I am not Andy, but I am not Thrawn – so I think I offer a comfortable middle when I ask for a little more than last time. However, I will stress that this isn’t a developmental circuit either. If you want to run in this low advanced / high casual roleplay then let’s show me that dedication; if not, then perhaps down the line after some more time and development I’d have changed my tune. I apologize if this seems overly non-inclusive, firm, and shattering – but I made a promise to myself and the players when this responsibility got handed to me and I’m trying to go for it. The word of the day is Quality Control and I do not know how to enforce it without burning bridges. I hope that much is understood. I know that this seems to go against "have fun"... but I've always felt we should strive for something more than careless fun when sitting down to write something together where it is fun . I hope that isn't seen in a negative way.I am in the chat if informal chat is more appropriate, but otherwise 'tis my judgement.TLDR – Revise your apps, work on grammar & spelling, show me a sample with a little more drive or convince me through other means that you're still able to commit to this game.Taking a look, will let you know judgement. The sample shows some narrative I particularly look forward to reading and all of it seems to check out. The Gypsy / The Spirit (with a dash of Nightshade/Shade) blend is particularly interesting and I can't wait to see where you take it on with. Accepted. [/quote] Well I’m not quite sure, what you mean. I have looked over my CS, and I really only found 2-3 places or so, that needed to be fixed (according to my understanding of the English language, of course). I realize, there are slightly different comma rules in Scandinavia (I use those, cause I’m from there), but after reading yours and mine (Based on the OC intro post of this RP) I do however come to the conclusion, that I could teach you where to place a comma. That possibly seems like a low blow, yeah. Hopefully you see it as a fair point, and believe that I have no intentions to analyze and argue over verbs and stuff. I just want to be sure that, that is not, what you are talking about. I assume your understanding of quality control, on an advanced RP, don’t involve that kind of grammar and syntax. Which lets me to assume that, you are talking about, how well I bend verbs and stuff like that, right? Well, as I wrote, I couldn’t really find much wrong with what, I had written before. And what I have written before is more or less the standard, I'm able to write with, once the IC starts. I guess that is bad news for me, because that does mean, I can’t be a part of the IC. Just because I was a part of the previous season (and a positive force I dare say so), you, of course, don’t owe me a spot on this one. This is your RP, your rules and your understanding of right and wrong (just like any GM). I do however (hopefully the other players will agree) believe, I deserve to walk out of this with a perfect understanding of what exactly was wrong/not good enough with my CS. Because, like I said, I couldn’t find anything wrong. EDIT: This is a shame, of course. I had really missed the previous RP and was excited to see it start again. There are also a lot of great people involved.
