Jenrak wrote:How Do I Apply for the Trainers?

The Trainers are done by an application process from the existing panel judges. Anyone wishing to apply must submit a Single-spaced post detailing a scenario no longer than 1 page, 12 pt Times New Roman font to this thread. For scenarios, applicants must telegram ONLY ONE of the current panel judges (Leistung, Yohannes, Rethan, Santheres, and Cyrupe), who will provide you, the applicant, with a scenario to RP out. You must provide the following information when posting your application:

  • the Trainer who gave you the scenario
  • the exact scenario you are RPing out
  • the application scenario post itself
  • any extra details and notes at the end that you may wish to add

Because we value flexibility, it is strongly recommended that you RP the scenario given to you. If you have a problem with the scenario and have a good reason, please notify the panel judge who provided you with the scenario to either provide you with a different one or to forward you to a different panel judge. Reasons for changing scenarios such as "I RP mainly / solely in FT / MT / PMT / PT, so I am very specialized" is a workable reason for changing, but simply "I can't do it", "I don't want to do it", "It's not the scenario I had in mind" will not. Ultimately, panel judges have the final discretion, NOT ME, as to whether they can or should change scenarios or not, so please do not telegram me if they are unwilling to change it. We want to ensure that applicants are experienced enough to deal with most of the problems or scenarios coming their way, rather than cherry picking their results.

Each panel judge will either post their evaluation, opinion and acceptance or rejection of your submitted application either in this thread or directly to me. Once a majority opinion has been formed (3/5 ayes or nays), I will either notify you of your status. If you have been accepted, you will be placed on the NSTrainer list. If you have been rejected, I will summarise all the criticisms from all panel judges for you, as well as provide my own opinion as to why you may have not been accepted.
Just know when it's real and when it isn't.

Go wild! You know how to write in English, and that's all you really need. You just have to use your imagination. Think about what kind of nation you want your nation to be (dark, happy, poor, small, any of the above, all of the above), and think about what kind of government you want.

The one mistake you shouldn't make is to assume that dictatorships = bad, democracies = good. It's a common profiling of political models, and though it's more often true than not, it's also extraordinarily boring. A democracy can be internally corrupted, and a dictator can have morals. Mix things about a little. Have fun.

The citizens of Planet Ringnia are very intelligent scientists working together to achieve scientific knowledge and logical reasoning. Combined with the ethical and pathological concepts of the native Ringnian tribes, science can slowly but surely understand and comprehend these psychological fields. Ethics, emotion, and logic join as one to unite the Ringnian republic.

Send me a TG. I dunno if I'm officially a trainer or not, but I can help.

Can someone teach me and give me some tips on how to 'improve' my Rping. I feel that it's lacking when I read it myself and down right dumb. I forsake the day when I learned Rping from a chat room. :(

Pop me a tg if you want, although it's currently 4 am so I might get back to you for a while.

Any questions, queries whatever.
