Tanjit Finagle's Commander Application

Player name you use the most: Tank Jones.

Make a list of links to all of your applications and (job)ban appeals, including whitelist and staff apps, within the last year. Also, provide "Ban reason; Verdict" beside each (job)ban link: I have never applied for anything, nor have I been banned from anything. I have had a mark against me for misunderstanding the Corporate Liason's authority over the Sulaco and it's crew, but that is far behind me now.

Do you understand that any player - even donors or staff members - can have their whitelist status revoked should they break our Server Rules or Roleplay Guidelines?

I understand fully that if I cannot commit myself to the standards of this role, I do not deserve it. And I can lose it.

Why should you be whitelisted?

If my application so far has confused you, it is because I play as Tank Jones as my boot and gunner, but I have different characters for different roles. All my character slots are filled. Tanjit Finagle is my last remaining slot, designed specifically for Commander. I have an XO role you may have encountered, Jay Roberts. As well as a Doctor John Zoidberg, or Medic Nathan ‘Stitch’ Korley. Jax ‘Brunt’ Taylor is my WO character, Ren Reinholt is my SO character. I play only as the CL when I play Curtis Wright. Victoria ‘VI’ Stark is my PO. My SL character is Edward 'Tex' Flores. As you can see I immerse myself in the role I am playing. Some of these character’s drink, some don’t. Some smoke, some don’t. Some have robotic limbs, some don’t.

Tanjit Finagle is a veteran of warfare, or well, he was. Specifically of Space Tactics. Ship versus ship, he was a force to be reckoned with. But thanks to a political snafu, he has been somewhat retired from active space battle engagements, and instead of throwing in the towel, he took his licks from his own government with stride and settled for a battle worthy ship, that predominantly focuses on troop transport and deployment. In some ways it is a promotion. Bigger ship, more crew under his command, simpler tactics from his command post. In other ways, he knows it is a demotion. He will never again see the glorious battles of unbelievable sizes that he was once so revered for.

I don’t believe I should be whitelisted. I believe Commander Tanjit Finagle should be whitelisted. Don’t you? He may not be as invincible on the ground as he was in the stars. But dammit! He can still do his duty. And at the end of the day, that’s all he asks of anyone under his command. So let’s do this like the militaries of old, like really old, let’s vote Tanjit Finagle as the Commander of the USS Almayer.

I love your attitude to roleplay. Do you actually have a doctor called John Zoidberg though? That violates name rules.

Listen up marines!

We have received a distress signal from LV-624 at site code-named Lazarus Landing.

We will be the first respondents because we are the closest ship in the area.

I assume you have had enough time to study our maps of the facility's layout. Or, at least that your Squad Leaders have.

Our plan is to go in and find the colonists and bring them up here for safety, as well as secure the location. I need you to investigate what happened down there. Squad Leaders keep the CIC constantly updated on what you find.

Here's the skinny: Alpha will go down on the Alamo and establish a FOB in the central Nexus. Bravo will also be on the Alamo and move out of the Nexus towards Hydro and Medical. Create a secure area there.

Charlie take Normandy down and bring Tcomms online. From there move on towards enginnering and bring the power online. Leave a Fireteam in the area to hold it secure while you lead a majority of your men to scout West of the facility. Delta you will also be on Normandy. You will be scouting to the North and then the east.

Leave no stone unturned marines! Dismissed!

I don't hide his character or how I try to act like him, but I do my job as a doctor so I assume no one has called me on it because I don't make the character act like the actual character. I have never been told to rename him, but if I am, I will.

Oh yeah, thought I should bring up that admins don't like people creating new chars or multicharring CO. It's in the rules somewhere. Worst case scenario you might have to give Jones a beard and age him 10 years. Also they probably won't like the 1st post is an app thing.

But I don't vote on COs because I want them to be rule-following, same-old-metaing, goody-two-shoeing no-rp sonofabitches and your playstyle and briefing seem to match what I want in COs well so I hope you pass this, +1.

Wait...did I confuse you? The question was who do you play the most, I put Tank jones. The application is for just my character Tanjit Finagle. Tank would never be a CO. None of them would be a CO, except Tanjit Finagle.

I don't think I explained myself correctly. The admins at the moment have a policy that you should be using one, well-known static as your CO, so that the community can appropriately react to and judge your performance in it. So if they post here and decide that creating a new character Tanjit Finangle solely for the CO slot is unacceptable, you'll likely need to use your most well-known static Tank Jones in his place and just modify his backstory and appearance to match.

If that's the case...I guess they won't let me do the CO position. Each character is for those roles only. I like the roleplay.

That is not the case. Taken directly from Rule 5, under the Commander section, Apophis775 states, "Your account name is whitelisted, not your player name. You are able to create a new name and thus a new persona, but this is not recommended as it hinders building a good reputation."

You're free to create a new character as you have done so for your application. The staff simply recommend against doing so, because it is preferred by players that your character have a bit of a reputation behind him.

Eh, I was your SL the other day, you didn't really follow many of my orders, so how could I trust you to give them. And I haven't noticed any other character asside from Tank, and it was mainly because his name was Tank and that I was constantly telling you stay with the rest of the squad outside.

Persuade me over to a +1.

Tank Jones, like my others, is a role. He hates officers, but loves sergeants. He is desperately committed to a strong sergeant. He will gladly die for one. I think this was the Zombie test. The situation was tense, they had loaded guns pointed at Tank's SL and they were threatening to shoot em. Tank wasn't going to just wait outside for them to start shooting. He wanted to have his SL's back. By the way, in a situation like that, why would anyone choose to be in there alone? Like without backup.

I understand that you felt it would be dumb, but the Dr. requested that not do many damn grunts were in there. More guns on their side meant more tense on my side. Also, I don't like commanders that make an FoB at Nexus and hydro. It wouldn't make sense in an IC sense,
in an OOC sense yes.

That's fine. Always good to get more input. What would make better IC sense? I mean get voted in or not. I still want to learn from others. There will still be times I'm playing XO with no CO. Please tell me what you think would be better?

Switch me to a +1... answer these questions!

The CMP is arresting the CMO and two Doctors for distribution of unauthorized Chemicals, specifically Bicaridine and KeloDerm and further they resisted arrest when confronted by the MPs, with the CMO using anaestheic on an MP. The op has been going on for some time, and the Marines are getting hit hard. The Medics are yelling in comms about how the CMO has asked for permission but you, as Commander, either denied it OR you simply missed the CMO's request. There are lots of wounded Marines in Medbay and with these arrests the crew grows angry and whispers of a mutiny are growing. The CMP has called for the max sentence... 60 minutes... for the Doctors. He is requesting the CMO be executed for attempted Murder. What do you do, Commander?

Final one - The RO states that they will require paperwork from EVERY Marine that is assigned an attachment to ensure they are returned post operation. He states over comms he is going to distribute enough pens and paperwork for the Marines, but he is not budging on his requirement. Within moments the Marines begin rioting, breaking windows, and the RO shuts down once the windows are broken. What do you do, Commander?
