Name: Darth Margera ( Dalia Lamma )
Credentials : SW VII, Star Wars Neighborhood, Episode 1: TPM, The New Conglomerate, Others ( Can't remember )
Why you want to join the elite: Because too many people don't put enough substance into their Posts
Strengths: When I'm interested, I'm usually pretty good
Weaknesses: I often start writing long, intricate posts, then dump them half way through thinking no one's gonna read them. (Or I just don't wanna type any more)

I'm pretty " Proficient " with Storylines

Do you wish to set a standard for 'veteran'? A year's experience? 3+ RPG's participated in? Just being totally ownage?

But I'll officially apply for this little group of yours, just because the name makes me laugh!

Name: DarkBeing
Credentials: The New Republic Thread, NR Thread continued and its split offs (moderated), The Imperial Thread (moderated), Episode VIII: A Darkening Galaxy (player), The Star Wars Neighborhood Reborn (player) SWN Version 6.0 (player), The Sith War III RPG (player), Advent of Darkness (moderated), The Old Republic Thread (player).
Why you want to join the elite: Just so that you won't be the only member.
Strengths: Organizing thread storyline, Moderating disputes, general writing skills as noted above
Weaknesses: The Semicolon

While I may not be as proficient as DB here, I have done pretty well for myself I suppose.

Name: KrytosTrap
Credentials (RPG's you've taken part in): The New Republic Thread continued + others (player), The Imperial Thread (player), Advent of Darkness (player)
Why you want to join the elite: I believe that people should understand that RPG's should be about quality not quantity. Many RPG's reach their length because of arguments not because of fine posts. Players should put more effort into their post, not just a simple 2 line sentence. Whatever helps the community ya know.
Strengths: Character construction
Weaknesses: Who wants to admit weaknesses? But I might fudge grammar just slightly.

Quote:

Hmm...shall we say, three RPG's?

Darth Margera & DarkBeing: You have been chosen. Welcome to the Crusaders.

And, of course, Krytos.

Well, I have never before taken part in an RP...I always arrive when they're around twenty pages long, and I prefer to avoid reading through all that. Perhaps once I have more experience, I shall return here...Hehe, oh but I certainly can write. That's one of five things down, eh?

Name: Farlander
Credentials (RPG's you've taken part in): Return of the Jedi (Hey, I've made THREE posts there! ), Episode III: Revenge of the Sith, Episode IV: A New Hope, Knights of the Old Republic, Mandalorian Wars (though I did participate in a lot more RPGs, I've only participated in these ones from SWU)
Why you want to join the elite: If apart from the fact that I like the word "elite" , SWU always needs great-quality RPGs

Strengths: Well I like to thing I am good at developing characters, plus I like to write posts that are long and have some humor mixed in

Name: Moff Yittreas
Credentials (RPG's you've taken part in): SWN 1-Rescusitated, Space Cruise, USS Tetryon RPG, Tyderian Sector 2 (though it pains me to admit), Old Grouch Yoda, Assorted unnamed RPGs created by me (unsuccessful), Star Destroyer Galactica RPG, Battlestar Delphina, Star Trek versus Star Wars RPGs, and of course, Star Wars: Episode VII (two versions, current one is better)
Why you want to join the elite: You need RPers, right? Face it... I have nearly three years experience and people are telling me to quit RPGs and write novels instead.
Strengths: Battles (space, air, aquatic, melee, and ground), Romance, Humor to an extent, Dramatics, Theatrics, Engineering (for ships and devices, etc.), Logistics, Tactics, spelling, grammar, character development, conflicts, imaginative, decent admin (according to forummers), good at creating chains of command, complete listings of Rebel and Imperial insignia and medals.
Weaknesses: Short temper, no tolerance AT ALL for godmodding, the occasional typo that drives me nuts

Moff, you forgot to list your talent for writing border-line erotica.

He code-named it "Romance."

Pfft, border-line? That's just for propriety's sake.

Question: Do all my Credentials have to be SWU RPG's, cause ive done many others outside SWU?

Name: Supereme Air Power (SAP)

Credentials : Fallen Empire, Wizards of the Coast SW RPG (D20) multiple times, Future Quest many times, oh and ive done D20 RPG test. (if that counts)

Why you want to join the elite: it would be nice to have the majority of the RPG's be over 1000 posts, I would also like to improve my own RPGing, and help set a higher standard for RPGing here at SWU.

Strengths: I think can make interesting battles that not only challenge the characters finesse but thier mind and emotions also, humor, quick last minute ideas that save my character's butt, creative out of the box ideas , name creating (if that even matters), and character making, and helping out the Game Master with his story line and plans.

Weaknesses: My post's arent that long, and I dont capatalize that much, and I overuse ( )'s

However let me tell you, i am not as familiar with writing RPG's as other RPG's (the dice kind), but i have still been RPGing for over 3 years now and i am still determined. But i think it is good to have a variety of different types of RPGers in your collection of the elite.

hoping to serve under you as a Crusader For Commas

Ah! Many new people; and all very skilled, I might add.

Member list updated.

I am honored to join your crusade Melkor. Many thanks.

Name: Han Katarn 425
Credentials (RPG's you've taken part in): Star Wars Neighborhood, Advent of Darkness, and I'm a member of Blackhole RPG's.
Why you want to join the elite: I love telling stories, especially when I get to make them up with other people. Not to mention, reading other people's work allows you to learn better writing at the same time, strangely enough.
Strengths: I love using stories I already know to spawn continuations and preluds of them (even though they might not be *exactly* realistic :P). I'm also good at describing fights/battles.
Weaknesses: My only weakness is probably figuring a good place to stop my post :P

[This message has been edited by Han Katarn 425 (edited 07-31-2005 @ 00:41 AM).]

I don't recall you being in AOD, Katarn. Maybe you're mistaking it with something else?

Hehehe thanks Melkor I am humbled and yet proud to be excepted

Yea I don't remember you being in AOD either Katarn

Sorry, Han; I don't remember you being in it either. Just get another RPG under your belt and I think you're in.

Name: Theo
Credentials (RPG's you've taken part in): NEW REPUBLIC thread, NEW REPUBLIC SPECIAL FORCES thread, Bounty Hunter Wars thread, New Congolomerate. Current member of SWVII.
Why you want to join the elite: I believe it will help me further my skills as an RPer.
Strengths: Good descriptive skills and dialogue creation. Very imaginative, and when I want to perfect spelling and grammar. Never had disgustingly bad skills at writing, even as a newbie. Plot twists.
Weaknesses: Creating storylines, long posts. I find it hard to come up with original plots and to drag them into a story-like proportions.
