Is this the first application you made? If no, link all previous applications:


Have you received any kicks/warns/bans, and if so, why:

3 warnings, all from last year, and haven't received any since.

How many hours can you be on everyday:
Because of work, I can only play Fri/sat/sun, though I can put in 4 hours or more during those days.


Onto the main part! (scary..)
Do you have any previous experience as a Gamemaster/Event Manager in a community:
I do not actively or previously have had any experience as a GM within CN or any other community.

Why would you like to become a Gamemaster:
I would love to become a game master for 1 sole reason.
The reason being: Over my last year on this server, I've always had high points and low points, always taking time away and feeling true burnout. However, the one thing always beckoning my return is the truly endless RP opportunities within the SCP world and its seemingly ever-lasting lore. Because of this, I truly want to experience these said endless opportunities come to fruition, bringing joy to 1 player at a time.


What do you think you would be able to help us with on the server? Why are you special over the other applicants:
In my eyes. Calling myself special over other applicants would be dishonoring them and their ambitions. However, with my previous experience as staff on CN, I have a relatively good understanding of the existing commands, aswell as it wouldn't take me long to understand the existing GM commands.
I've played most GOI's and departments on the server, with experience such as this, I firmly believe I'll have the ability to create events specifically tailored to the different experiences and gameplay loops of the different departments/GOI's.
Lastly, on this part, I would like to take the moment to mention that RP is something that's practically always been a part of my life, whether that be roleplaying as a little kid with your friends or other roleplaying video games. RP has truly encapsulated a space within my heart.


Please List 3 small event ideas (Which would involve at least one side of the server):
Event #!: Tic.. Tok.
This first event would involve GOC and the foundation!
10% loaded...
50% loaded..
100% loaded! >Welcome back, General! How may I assist you today?<
UNGOC General J Rossweld: "Input command."
>Certainly General! What command would you like to have input today?> "Review previous bodycam footage, from the night the incident happened."
10% loaded...
50% loaded..
100% loaded! <Hello. I am Hellenstic. aic, a ver2.0 Artificially Intelligent Conscript. How may i be of help?> O5-4:
"Input command."
>of course! which command might that be?> "Pin CCTV camera footage as pending for review, we need to see what exactly occurred that night."
The idea for this event is, GOC discovers a nest deep within the pinewood forest. This nest contains eggs from SCP-3199. GOC operatives alerted the Foundation of their discovery in hopes of a combined research study into this SCP; however, to their ignorance, they were willfully unprepared.
GOC PVT 'Brava': Man.. these eggs we've been guarding kinda smell, don't they?
GOC 1SGT 'Temple': Yeah, they smell almost.. putrid, like sulfur.
GOC PVT 'Brava': Why are we watching over these again? can't we just leave them with Kewpie for their studies..
GOC 1SGT 'Temple': Because 'Brava', both the GOC and Kewpie benefit from this study.
GOC PVT 'Brava': Right..

">INCOMING COMMUNICATION<"
GOC 1SGT 'Temple': Make sure to listen in on that 'Brava', it could be mission critical.
GOC PVT 'Brava': Yes sir, at once.

">This is Command. 'Brava' and 'Temple', once Kewpie finishes up with their study, bring those eggs back to the FOB. Oh, and.. please be as careful as you can with their transport.<"
O5-4: Commander, please do alert SOP operatives that I am personally allowing the UNGOC operatives transporting the 3199 egg's within our walls. Of course, follow the standard procedure when allowing a GOI to enter our site.
Alpha-1 Commander 'Moon': Right away.
(Meeting with Nu-7 Command.)
Alpha-1 Commander 'Moon': Good afternoon, Commander 'Pyxan'
Nu-7 Commander 'Pyxan': Good afternoon to you too, what may we interest you in today?
Alpha-1 Commander 'Moon': GOC operatives will soon arrive at our doors, I have been tasked with alerting you of such. You are to let them in, while still following standard procedure.
Nu-7 Commander 'Pyxan': Of course, I'll make sure to have 4 of my operatives post up with our visitors, as guards of sorts.
Alpha-1 Commander 'Moon': I entrust you'll do well, 'Pyxan'.
(fast forwarding the footage to present, all that's seen on camera view is the aftermath of a battle fought with zero chance of victory.)
(While on the way to the surface, a crackling noise arises.)
GOC PVT 'Brava': Hey, 'Temple', did you hear that sound?
GOC 1SGT 'Temple': I heard nothing, ya know.. You really do need to get your ears checked one of these days..
(The Crackling grows louder, soon after an egg can be seen hatching on the bodycam footage. The hatching egg falls to the ground, the fully hatched 3199 instance howling out a scream ear-piercingly loud to anyone in the area.)
(The bodycam footage has a brief moment of pause, citing technological error. The footage shoots back on, cutting to the operatives opening fire onto a horde of fully grown 3199 instances.)
GOC 1SGT 'Temple': BRAVA.. COVER M-
GOC PVT 'Brava': I- COVERI-G!
(The footage from then on is increasingly garbled.)
GOC PVT 'Brava': TEM-PLE N--O!
GOC 1SGT 'Temple': *chhhk.*
(The footage cuts again, this time to static. The only audible sound is a nerve-wracking clicking.)
Event #2! for this event, its a much more simplistic idea.
This one involves
the CI! it is called Trouble in Paradise.
It's an average day within the CI bunker, CI command is planning out their latest nefarious raid ideas with their troops when.. *BLAM!* *BLAMM!* The bunker systems all start to go off all on their own. Nobody within the bunker knows how this can be fixed, so they resort to rather unusual ways of fixing the issue.

Event #3! (the final, ooo...) Same with the previous, this one is more simplistic. Involving GOC! This one is called Curious little friends.another night in the GOC fob.. Operatives having fun with each other, chatting.. playing games, coming up with new ideas, when out of nowhere a loud explosion-esque sound can be heard echoing into the bunker, alerting the current operatives. Immediately, the operatives rush towards the surface, in search of this noise. To their surprise, they spot a portal that has opened within the forest, and what comes out, however, are curious creatures that resemble mythological animals? a baby griffin, baby manticore, and lastly.. a baby dragon? These curious little fella's sneak into the fob's gates, offering nothing but their curiosity for the world around them and tons of playful moments which capture the hearts of all!
Please List an map change event idea (Involving both sides and the entire server):
Map change event time! (big leagues here...) It's just a regular day in Pinewood.. Everyone's living their lives as peacefully as they can when one day, cases of extreme skin disease appear to pop up at an increasingly alarming rate, and those infected appear to be heavily scarred in major areas within mere hours. Because of this, CI, Foundation SOP, and GOC operatives are dispatched to Pinewood to create a quarantine zone in an attempt to keep the disease at bay. During this time, the three main GOI's are at a temporary truce until a plan can be devised on how to rid pinewood of this infectious disease.

List an example mission for each of the following (O-1, A-1, Nu-7, E-11, CI, UNGOC & Foundation Staff):
O-1's mission: "Dimensional troubles.." During a routine dimensional test being conducted via a dimensional cartographer, an ECM watching overhead is struck by the dimensional beam, causing him to slip in and out between different dimensions. Because of this, O-1 is tasked with attempting to rescue the ECM, attempting to figure out his dimensional slipping in the process.
A-1's mission: "Time of annoyance." It's a normal day for Alpha 1 members, they finally finished up a multiple-hour-long operation when all of a sudden, they are alerted of a group of intruders on site, though these aren't just any intruders. They are American mercenaries, tasked with the infiltration of Site-65 and intel gathering of the site.
Nu-7's mission: "Memories of old." A quiet night for Nu-7.. operatives are maintaining their usual duties, guarding the surface area, watching the hillsides from watch-towers, when all of a sudden, a Nu-7 operative notices the remains of an old fairground. Nu-7 is tasked with the reconnaissance and exploration of this memory of old.
E-11's mission: "Ghosts exist?" An e-11 operative says, after finding out that they've been tasked with the safeguarding of a certain band of sentient mannequins, each mannequin seems to have its own specific skill set.
(my brain turned off for the e-11 mission, will fix later.. probably.)

CI's mission: "Plants R us." On a routine expedition around the pinewood region, CI operatives discover a living plant humanoid, its body covered with leaves, only its head, palms of its hands, and feet are uncovered, CI is tasked with the research of how this SCP functions, and if its properties can be used as camouflage for their nefarious plans.
UNGOC's mission: "Integrity." The people of Pinewood, as of late, haven't been the happiest with the UNGOC and their peacekeeping missions, some labeling them as "poorly coordinated" or downright terrible. Because of this, GOC operatives are tasked with finding new ways to keep the citizens of Pinewood in a happy mood, while keeping their integrity in the process.
Lastly, the foundation staff mission: "Comfort above all." Foundation research staff recently received a shipment of anomalous chairs, 5 to be exact. The research division is tasked with attempting to figure out why the chairs give off such a level of comfort when sitting on them, and to see if it can be reverse-engineered in a way that provides maximum comfort for new padding upgrades to the foundation's current security forces.
Thank you so very much for taking the time to read my application. My event ideas may not be the best by any means, but for what they are, I truly do hope you and any player who experiences them one day finds true joy within them and their silliness. Oh, and if you still have your coffee or tea towards the end? Take it with ya, it's yours to enjoy! :coffee:🍵

The application itself is well-formatted, for the three small event ideas, the first one looks and reads well, the monologue while short is able to capture and provide insight into the general premises of the event.

A slight concern which could be fixed easily, you've mistook the map change event for a server-wide event, this means you would have to write about an event, where the map may change, this could be a server-wide map change, or for a certain department.

I appreciate how not all the events written are combative, you've procured unique and compelling ideas.

The mission section is fine, for the foundation mission, I could genuinely picture the foundation-staff one as an event that players would love to participate in.

Best of luck!

-More OOC Elaboration on the regimental events would be lovely, and you need to fix the Map Change Event (I'd recommend you go read other applications that do it correctly, just to see what you can do for it. TL;DR is that you select a map and the server swaps onto it for a long event. You can also edit the jobs however you want).

Elsewise, good application with fun ideas, especially the first 3 Events you mentioned.
Best of luck.
