[b]Name: [/b]CT 8153 1LT Tide / Dark Tide [b]Steam ID: [/b]STEAM_0:1:46506444 [b]Timezone: [/b]EST [b]Do you have a mic?: [/b]Yes [b]Experience: [/b]A good deal of experience GMing, was a head GM in original Cosmic Conquest and have GM'd for other servers in the past. [b]What does it mean to be a Game Master?: [/b]To be a gamemaster is to devote oneself to hosting and assisting with running events for players to thoroughly enjoy. [b]Why do you want to be a Game Master?: [/b]I want to be a gamemaster to help increase the quality and quantity of events on Cosmic Conquest. [b]What makes a good Game Master?: [/b]A good gamemaster is one who can be flexible and work efficiently in a team with other gamemasters, and keep players engaged in a positive way. [b]What makes a bad Game Master?:[/b] A bad gamemaster would be one who doesn't listen to their peers and makes rash decisions that might infringe or go back upon-  -other gamemaster's RP and/or server lore choices. Listening and observing are the most important traits of a good Gamemaster so they may better provide more engaging RP and combat scenarios. [b]Please give us an example of an event you would make as a Game Master: [/b] An enjoyable event I would run as a gamemaster would entail much RP for several players to be engaged so as to avoid encounters with "main character" RPers that steal the thunder of their less-boisterous comrades.  [b]An example of this would be myself leading the event with co-GMs: [/b] The event would ideally take an hour, and would be a prologue to a campaign of events that lead to aiding in the restoration of Planet Kashyyyk. After landing on the planet with supplies, the main force would be tasked with escorting a cache of supplies to Wookie and human Restorationists (played by co-GMs) that are attempting to cultivate the growth of a specific group of plants. To skip a few details I'd rather keep private until the actual event, it would end after a combat scenario and more RP with the Wookie Restorationists, and would lead to future events where the the clones of Jania will return to help and possibly defend and secure the Restorationists' hold on the Restoration zone. Also adding rewards or actual impact to events can help with player engagement. For example: After helping the restoration campaign perhaps all troops get some kind of buff to health or some specific tool is added to the Shop for purchase. Just ideas.
