Butterrobber202 - Synth App 'Oakley'

Post by Butterrobber202 » 19 Oct 2018, 09:39

Byond ID: Butterrobber202

Marine Name (so we know who you are; if you play alien mostly, state that here): Alien Main, but Johnny 'Snowball' Redem

Name/Designation of the Synth Character you’re requesting to use: Oakley

Are you familiar with the Synthetic Programming and Guidelines (http://www.colonial-marines.com/viewtop ... 57&t=14417)?: Yep

Synthetic Character Story:
► Show Spoiler
How do you intend to play your Synth (as in, describe HOW you will act/play your Synth and what support roles you’ll mainly focus on, what is your synthetics quirk)?: Cargo and Engineering Support is what I'll be tackling mostly. For quirks, I'm not entirely sure yet, but a simulated sense of smugness is definitely on the menu.

How familiar are you with support roles? (ie; Medical, MT, Science, SO): Been here since the Sulaco was sterile white, I can handle most anything.

Why should we whitelist you?: For the same reason, the server is here, entertainment and RP interactions. I think I can at least bring some mildly decent RP into the fold while I'm playing.

Have you been banned from CM in the last month for any reason (we will check, and lies may result in immediate denial)?: Don't think so.

Are you currently banned from any other servers and if so, why? Negative.

Do you understand that any player - donor or otherwise - can have their whitelist status revoked should they break our rules or the Synthetic Programming Guideline? Yep, rules that aren't enforced aren't rules.

Hold on just a second chief, you made a synth without a quirk?

Exactly as Matt said. As you said it most likely would be smugness, I see almost none of that in the story besides breaking the marines gun, or you saying to your self "plenty of time" at the start of the story. The story also kind of just reads off as "Im a synth hey look at me." Also I know shit like marines putting guns at people for almost no reason happens alot in rounds (to which its not supposed to as marine's are all mentally sane according to the rules) so it happening in your story for a crazy marine who basically aims a gun at you because "unga dunga me want attachment" kinda rubs me the wrong way... The story would still be good if it had your quirk show and I could simply look past the marine part, but for now -1

Yeah we kinda need to know what your quirk is going to be before we can give our approval/disapproval votes

The programming guidelines state that all synthetic's have a quirk, you will need to clearly state your quirk before this could be reviewed. If you are accepted you have the ability to change up your quirk/synthetic, but here you need to prove your understanding of what is required of the role.

State the quirk, or I won't even bother reviewing this.

holy shit my bad, I meant to edit that before submitting because I had this setup in a draft.

The quirk was going to be serious, non-comical quirk with a low amount of speaking where possible. Oakley's thing was going to be efficiency in all things and minimize effort and time in most areas. For example, if something was holding up the building of the FoB Oakley would try to remove the issue or run off the being causing said issue quickly so he can continue he task unimpeded. The smugness would be quiet and unspoken, and simply something Oakley keeps running in the back of his mind.

Write me sample dialogue of your quirk with:

The commander.

Then a separate one with two squad marines.

I'm just giving this a flat out -1.

Your application is extremely average, I like the story but that is the only redeemable part of it, and it seems like you put 0 effort into the rest of the application. That might be because you had this in a draft and accidentally submitted it, so if you wish to retract it the Synth Council will more than likely just give you a shorter waiting period.

Haven't seen your character play anything support related. Ever. That's another red flag.

ON HOW TO FIX IT: Format it better, different fonts for the sections maybe? CLEARLY state your synthetic's quirk, and try to make the dialogue more easily seen. Bolding, new lines, whatever gets the job done. PLAY MORE SUPPORT ROLES. You seem like a competent player, but I'd like my memory to match up with my intuitions.

honestly, with the number of fuckups on my end, I'd like this withdrawn until I can create something of higher quilty when I have more free time. Thanks.
