Why do you wish to become a Fax Responder?
I’ve always enjoyed roleplaying, and even though I haven’t sent a lot of faxes in my playtime, I’ve always liked the fax dynamics. I tend to read faxes as soon as possible, as they can change or make a round much more entretaining. I always wanted to become a fax responder to be able to generate this same kind of emotion to other players. I used to play a lot as the Nanotrasen Representative in the Paradise server, and I always felt curiosity about not only reading faxes sent by High Command, but to create them. I feel like I would enjoy the role a lot, and not only that, but I could provide entretainment to other people.
What do you consider the purpose of this role?
I think that the fax responder role is mainly a way for the players to interact with moderation/admins in an IC way, but not just that, as it can provide opportunities for the Almayer crew (and other factions) to change a normal round and transform it into something memorable. I think that a good fax responder can give unusual goals to some players without breaking any rules and without changing the round for the players who want to have a normal day. I always thought that a good responder can transform a good round into a great round.
When would you consider it appropriate to use your phone?
Using the phone is something I would never do without a really good reason. For example, I would use if something round-changing was about to happen because command, or another faction didn’t read the fax I sent. Even in this cases, I would not use the phone lightly, and I would ahelp it first if possible. I would use it to communicate with other fax responders as well, if the need arises.
If playing WY Responder, what objectives do you consider within your power to give the CL?
If I was a fax responder for W-Y, I would give goals to the Liaison mostly based on his own faxes, although i’d never assign goals that would make him an antag. For example, if he informs about some interesting research going on, i’d ask him to provide more information, notes or even pictures of the experiment. I could ask him for certain objects (Not the command tablet or sensitive items) to be retrieved, or even to start a P.R Operation in the USS Almayer to improve the views of the marines in regards to the Company. I would try to make the goals enjoyable and achieveable, which is something I consider important, as some rounds can be short and therefore the goals cannot be completed.
If playing Press Responder, what objectives do you consider within your power to give the CC?
As a Press Responder, I would try to give the CC objectives that could make his round slightly different than usual, without altering it significantly. For example, I could ask him to interview marines, or even ask him for specific pictures of the battlefield, such as a dead ravager or marines shooting. I’d try to write it in a way to make sure the CC has enough freedom to complete the goal as he sees fit, so he doesn’t feel limited. I would try to make the experience more entretaining than usual for everyone.
