Do you have any previous experience as a Gamemaster/Event Manager in a community:
Had GM twice in two different places in the past, tho with not much creative freedom.


Do you have any advanced skills that would benefit the GM team, such as PAC-3, dupes building, art creation and others? If yes, give us your best example of putting that skill into practice:
I'm trying to learn PAC-3 and building more, however I know how some of the tools work. I used to do arts which I do pickup now and again. My most prominent thing is my RP though, currently apart of 2 big story lines which are the Diver one, and Lima-3 (tho Lima-3 is on hold or smt). I have been actively trying to help enhance RP for tests (however that is also part of my job as DoR). I just wish to have fun and have other people enjoy their time aswell.


Please list one RP Enhancement for a Foundation Department/MTF:
"Red Ice"
An RSD member has requested a sample of SCP-009 "Red Ice" to SIte-65 for analysis and further testing. During these testing, I would first GM being a transport person, transporting to box of a sample of SCP-009 and then leaving. Once I left as the transport unit, I would !goto to the person, invisible ofc and noclipped. Once the box is opened in RP, I would remove the box and place an GMObjective there, that would work like Red Ice. When the RSD member is studying it in rp, I would react accordingly for them in /it's, like looking under the microscope. Once it is all done with testing, depending what happened with the sample, the sample would likely be placed again into the box, where I'd despawn the GMObjective and put a box down, and I would come pick it up again as the transport unit from before.

Please list one RP Enhancement for a Non-Foundation Group:
"New Dimension"
The GOC has a project ongoing, or had, about making a dimensional prison for KTEs that could not be destroyed. They were making it to the stage of building the frame of the portal, where I would assist by building it with props according to their schematics. After all the prepartions are complete, I would save the dupe and when they are going to test run it, I would turn the portal into a door that teleports you to one of the GM locations into a new looking dimension, having to build that GM space into a prison. From there any changed made by the GOC I would change in the dupes, and possibly give them KTEs in the future to have them use it.


Please list one Event idea for the United Nations Global Occult Coalition:
"Big bug Little bug"
Reports are coming in about dissappearances at night within Pinewood, aswell as finding other animals like wolves and moose dead on the ground. The trails of blood lead to a nearby cave. The 25th Artic Corps are tasked with finding out what is going on, and terminating the threat. The cave entrance would be somewhere on the surface they need to find, and once they enter it, they would be brought to the GM plane where there would have been a dupe built and the atmosphere set with PAC-3. It would be a dark cave with not much to go on, as the GOC explore the cave, they encounter a few small creepy crawlies, but the deeper they go into the cave, the bigger and more hostile they get. These will likely be NPCs due to the bug numbers. However they will explore the cave and find a boulder blocking an obvious path and would have to move it, however explosives would destabilize the cave and make it collapse. Once they find a way to get into the room, there would be a few giant bugs, one specific one was the biggest, the Queen of the Hive. The GOC would have to terminate the threat and ensure the intel and communications are sent to command. The Queen will likely be a GM though, due to the ability to understand and communicate in some way. However likely the GOC will just terminate the Queen.


Please list one Event idea for the Chaos Insurgency:
"The Hunted or the Hunter?"
The Chaos Insurgency would get intel about energy weapons inside of an underground bunker in the region, dumped weapons from the MC&D. The Chaos Insurgency are ordered to retreive them, however once all of the troops go into the bunker, the door closes behind them, and lights turn on. It's a maze. The Chaos Insurgency are stuck in a maze as fog thickens and foot steps can be heard within the maze. This will be done by bringing them to the GM Plane and again with a dupe and PAC-3 for effects. They will hear voices screaming for help as they explore the maze. This will be done simply by screaming while passing them in No clip. In the fog will be an entity, trying to hunt down the CI, who will be played by a GM, it is meant to stalk to CI and strike one at a time, or when they are off guard. The only way for the CI to take it down, is to try and set up traps to lure it in so they can have the time to blast it, as it is too quick to have proper hits done with guns. It would need more explosive measures when it is standing still. The materials to build a trap would be around the maze to find, aswell as notes giving them tips on how to deal with the creature.


Please list one Event idea for the SCP Foundation:
"The Tower Of Babel"
A crack appears from the ground in Atrium, where a tower starts growing out of, seemingly from the pits of Hell. Demonic entities climb the tower as it grows, and attacking anyone near. I would do a side wide message by then saying the heat levels and hume levels in HCZ are rising, to where players would find a tower prop in the middle of the Atrium and use pac for effects like flame or glow of Hell, with either GMs playing entities or NPCs placed. They would not be abe to be fully stopped, until SCP-7722 is called for help, where 7722 would have to use the power of christ to repel the demonic entities and their tower back to hell, as the demons were trying to reach the heavens.


Please list a Major Event or Map Change idea (Involving all sides and the entire server):
"A Tear in Reality"
Alerts for the CI, GOC and Foundation would come in, on the server wide announcement thingy. "High levels of Humes detected on the surface. Unstable." There would be a crack above the icelake, a crack glowing and slowly growing. I would have done this with a mix of a prop and pac-3, don't know how exactly yet due to still having to learn. This Major event would need the team work of all factions and no unneeded deaths. If the threat is not contained quick enough, creatures would come out of the tear, either played by GMs or NPCs to attack everyone there. Everyone would need there R&D teams to figure out how to contain, destroy or overall stop the tear for the safety of the reality. Civilians might have to be evacuated and amnesticated after the incident, however that is up to the parties at hand.


What elements can make an event unenjoyable? Include one example, avoiding the typical answers if possible.
Trying to get someone PKed without their consent, just constantly putting them in a loop of death, or making a character have something happen to them which changes them permanently without their ooc consent. And overall, blocking some people out of the event that are actually intriguied or meant for their group.

And finally, what do you wish to achieve by becoming a Gamemaster?
I wish to have fun and give people the enjoyment they deserve on the server, for the people that actually want to RP, host them events that will make their time on the server unforgettable, and things that might affect a character's growth and seeing it all play it. I just love RP, and seeing all these other people doing wonderful RP too, why not help them out? I have seen many events, many story lines which have inspired me to apply to and hopefully give the same level of expierence to the server too.

-Support
To start off with, this is purely on your roleplay ability. Scott you specialise in backroom roleplay and interactions, from my many months of knowing you I have seen you having no real interest in interacting with people below your own clearance level and treating them with indifference off the bat. This isn't just from my perspective but it is many others.

Also as stated by others the application is extremely lackluster, seemingly derivative and repetitive (your research event idea was actually something John 'old' Man brought up in a meeting?) which I know you said you are fixing, but its not the best look to put this forward off the bat without much thought.

To end off, I don't think you have displayed any of the roleplay abilities and community engagement/support that most would expect from a GM.

Which idea was John's? And About the lower than me clearance has not been true for a while, don't get how you can still say that even though we barely directly speak nor are we around eachother that much anymore.
 
I don't usually comment on applications but i have to comment on this one.

Your events are good enough and meh for me, the UNGOC event is good enough for me while the CI event is meh for me. But the one event that i see in your application caught my eye:

Overall, event is good enough but the one thing that wants me to ask question about the event is the SCP-7722:
Lets say that you become GM and you do that event (with announcement being sented on discord already), if there is already an 7722 on and he does not want to partake in the event and just want to breach. Would you post call event for next day or call off because the 7722 player does not want to hop off or you wait it off. Or you get mad at him like the "others" said about you.

Because of it, i'm at neutral leading to -support due walter saying you only roleplay those with same level as you or higher. With you not wanting to roleplay with your below CL4 personnel. And you having lot of crashouts.

Listen Scott, i know you can be an good roleplayer and can be good GM but you gonna fix those two problems, even if you get accepted and pass the GM interview: Roleplaying with below CL4 and keeping your temper at bay. I don't want you to lose GM at the first event okay?

I'm open to changing my support if you give me good awsner to my question. Also my apologies for the last words in my 7722 question, looking at the comments at your exec researcher and DoR applications made me to look about you like that.

Wait what exactly is the question here?

Either way, I have been RPing with lower CLs, however I am dragged into events and storylines where I do not decide who is apart of em, don't know how Walter keeps pulling that card from, I barely speak to the guy and see him when I am actually RPing. And the temper I would need an example, I don't think I got an OOC temper unless someone can correct me on that and give an example because no one has given me any example on temper to improve on, IC however I do sometimes have tempers.

The question was would you argue with the 7722 not wanting to do your event.

As for the temper, no OOC is temper is good thing for me but remember to keep IC temper at bay in most roleplays.

As for no roleplaying with below CL4, i hope what you saying is true. Because since you are DoR your below CL4 peers will look into in bad way.

I gonna do full neutral now but, please don't crash out during one of your GM events. Thank you.

Oh wait. I get your question now.

I would try to coordinate a SCP-7722 before hand for the event. If that would not work, I would simply ask the guy to hop off 7722 for me or even pay him. If it does not work out, I would likely ask advice from other GMs what to do in a situation like this, dye to in this scenario I am guessing I am still new to the GM team. I'd rather double check things if they are fine before I act upon things. For most things at least.

You got my neutral to leading +support. Not full +support but right step.
