Aerodynamique : RP Event Manager Application

[aerodynamique]

BYOND Ckey: aerodynamique
Character Name: Sidera Barschev
Discord Username (+user id): koboldgoat2024
Reason for Application: I've already run a few events that were fairly enjoyable for folks (I think).
Team Applying For: RP

1. When setting up an event for the server, what should be taken into account as your to-do list before announcing the event to the discord/server?

Obviously, make sure that it all works. Either test it on live in thunderdome or test it in local if it will be disruptive. Try to find a time that's good for folks. Ensure that what you spawn will not kill everybody. Double-check that what you spawn will not kill everybody. If it is a high-chaos event, make sure to include that.

2. What is expected of an Event Manager on Citadel Stations (Main and/or RP)?

Do not spawn things in that will kill everybody. Tell stories. Help move people's personal plots along. Develop the universe via showing lore ingame that might not be displayed commonly. Fun is fun.

3. What would you call a fun addition to a current round if the players are wanting extra spice?

It really depends on who's asking for it and what the vibe is. It can be anything as simple as making one of explo's POI's unexpectedly spicy, or it can be as complex as 'ATC says that this ship needs help, go give em a hand', or as slice-of-life as 'uh oh, cargo shuttle mishap, figure out what to do with all of this!' The possibilities are- not literally infinite, but very close.

4. If an event you're hosting is going off the rails, or that the players are reacting to the event in a way that is steering away from your original plan and idea,
what would you do at that point for the event?

If the players find a path they find more fun, that's a great thing. They have found something that is more fun and have actually done your job for you- which is to make sure that everyone has fun. Facilitate their fun new plan and adjust accordingly. The advantage of the GM screen is that nobody actually knows what the plot is until you reveal it. If they come up with a more fun idea, you can quickly change everything they haven't seen yet to adjust accordingly.

All the events you've ran have been pretty solid, apart from a rare mistake here and there. +1

i'll be honest your IC admittedly gives me reservations about the direction you'll drive the server in

however given our copious chats in dev/lore i'm in the belief that you do have ic/ooc separation between character and player and we've already talked about stuff like direction so i'm going to give this a +1
