" I love leading RP scenarios and projects, I feel like I could make more and more advanced RP scenarios/projects as a director of research. On the topic of RP, I think I could expand research RP into other departments and factions such as joint projects with the medical department. Alongside the previously mentioned I also already have some potential changes in mind for the department that I could bring into reality as a director of research."

Elaborating on this more would make it easier for those selecting you to come to a decision in your favour. What projects do you have in store for Research?

How are you also going to make the new player experience better? Decal by Eidolon gave Research quite the boost for some time as it put things in game and more accessible, rather than a google doc simulator.


I won't be leaving a +/- Support as I currently do not play on SCP and as such have no current experience with you there.

I'd love to elaborate on this!

There's currently 2 projects I am leading, both of which are very RP focused, 1 of them can be found on the lore page but for the sake of convenience I'll go ahead and explain them both below.


Project Exo Nexus:
This project was issued by Site Director Pennington. The whole purpose of this project is for the research department to research, create and enhance cybernetics for the site director as the one's he currently has are not great aesthetically and functionally, therefore the research department will be creating these alongside the E&TS department and are allowed to do this however they would like with some guidance from myself if needed.

Project Anchorpoint:
I made this project myself and I am leading it myself as well. This project has a few main aims being the following, figure out exactly how SCP-22415 instances are able to prevent the helper's dimension to collapse, find a way to replicate said effect and finally to generally gain and document more information on SCP-22415 as that is very lacking at the moment. This will be done by interviewing SCP-22415 instances, working with Dimensional Cartographers, run various tests on the Helper's dimension and SCP-22415 and of course any other way researchers deem fit.


Project Anchorpoint is in the process of starting which will be finished within the next 2-3 days.
Project Exo Nexus is already being worked on but awaiting some GM assistance for a portion of it.

Documentation on these can be found both internally and externally!

How are you also going to make the new player experience better?
  1. As for this, I'd like to at least get an internal documents for each SCP on site and potentially some event storyline SCPs.
  2. I'd like to introduce some Sub-Divisions for the research department so people can focus on the fields they love and get rewarded for it.
  3. I'd like for some non-mandatory meetings within the research department for all research personnel to be hosted from time to time so research leadership can hear the opinions and suggestions of researchers on the department.

Neutral Support +/-
//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

To be honest Jimmy Swan your a good guy and i can see you doing well in research because what i have seen you have done recently but that is also kind of a bad point because you have held Executive researcher for quite a while now to my knowledge but i have only seen you doing good work now suspectedly only after you made this application so due to this i am leaving a Neutral Support +/-


I don't believe you are the best candidate for Director of Research
 
i have only seen you doing good work now suspectedly only after you made this application
I have been doing the same stuff I have always been doing, I started project Exo Nexus far before the creation of this application and got the idea for my second project as well before writing this. I also engaged in numerous interdepartmental RP situations with primarily Ethics and medical faaaar before applying.

Thanks for your feedback though!

Would you be able to elaborate on your reasoning for this neutral support?
I've barely interacted with you, I've also heard bad things from others about you, but you are a nice guy so I didn't want to do -Support
 
Dear Esteemed Committee,

I am writing to offer my full and enthusiastic support for Jimmy Swan’s application for the position of Director of Research. Having had the privilege of working closely with Jimmy in multiple capacities, I can say without hesitation that he is exceptionally qualified and uniquely suited for this role.

Jimmy’s career within the Foundation has been nothing short of remarkable. His time as an Executive Researcher showcased not only his brilliant mind but also his unparalleled dedication to pushing the boundaries of our understanding. He has led complex research initiatives with precision, and his innovative thinking has consistently yielded groundbreaking results. His ability to balance intellectual curiosity with meticulous adherence to safety protocols has set him apart as one of the most responsible and forward-thinking researchers I’ve ever known.

In addition to his research expertise, Jimmy has also served as an Overseer Assistant, which has broadened his understanding of the Foundation’s higher-level objectives and how research can align with our mission. His time in this role has given him insight into the delicate balance between the pursuit of knowledge and the broader security concerns that come with our work, making him an ideal candidate to oversee research with a holistic perspective.

Moreover, his tenure as a Security Captain speaks volumes about his leadership capabilities. It is rare to find someone who can seamlessly transition between the analytical demands of research and the command responsibilities of security, but Jimmy does so with ease. His ability to manage teams under high-pressure situations, coordinate complex operations, and ensure the safety of both personnel and assets shows that he has the leadership qualities required to excel as Director of Research.

Jimmy possesses the vision, expertise, and experience needed to take on this role. His dedication to the Foundation, his colleagues, and the pursuit of scientific advancement has earned him the respect of everyone he’s worked with. I can think of no one better suited to lead the Research Division, and I wholeheartedly support his candidacy.

If you require any additional insights into Jimmy's qualifications, please do not hesitate to reach out. I have the utmost confidence that he will excel in this position and continue to drive the Foundation toward new heights of success.

Sincerely,
Sylvia Fabian,
Goober
