Why do you wish to become a Fax Responder?
I want to be a fax responder strictly because I really enjoy the Roleplay that comes from responding to faxes and playing interesting roles/factions with consideration for their lore and interests. It would allow me to be the “guy off screen” providing responses to players faxes and add an extra level of depth to everyone’s gameplay. In short, I want to be able to add to other’s enjoyment of cm-13 by being able support the admins and most importantly the players, and their interactions with “off screen factions”. (I feel the pain of Corporate Liasson’s and their unread faxes)
What do you consider the purpose of this role?
I feel that the purpose of the Fax Responder Role is to provide an intermediary between the admin staff and the players participating in the shipside roles in the round. They are assigned a faction and or responsibilities and are responsible of being in character and having the faction’s interests and lore in mind whenever they answer communications. They represent organizations that aren’t typically participating in the round if it isn’t for an admin’s intervention or a Fax responder. In short, they represent a chosen group/organization taking their lore and interests at heart with every fax into order to add a layer of roleplay that just isn’t possible without someone with those responsibilities.
When would you consider it appropriate to use your phone?
From my understanding the phone is a last resort. You shouldn’t be using it unless it is absolutely essential (it won’t be almost every time you consider it)
When thinking about it:
- Responding to other Fax Responders.
- Handling ERT de-briefs or events
- Responding to critical or emergency situations because if your organization didn’t get instructions it may lead to a negative experience to everyone participating in the round or the ERT team could make decisions that in reality are not with the organization’s best interests in mind. example since I have played CL and seen these kinds of things happen during rounds (when a CL or their Corporate Security is acting out of place and holding someone in their office instead of handing them over to the MP’s a FR could quickly tell the CL and their CSO why they did in fact violate SOP and Marine Law, and how holding someone in the CL’s office is out of their jurisdiction or authority)
If playing WY Responder, what objectives do you consider within your power to give the CL?
1.Extract any valuable documents or survivor’s making sure that the CL gets their story and other RP related to that kind of scenario
2. Assign the CL to find out the reason for the distress call or what the purpose of the operation may be.
3. Keep the company informed on what is going on groundside and how well the marines and command are using the resources partially allocated and funded to them by the company.
4. Have the CL look into research and provide reports on xenomorph research. If research finds a chemical that is important to the company than you could inform them to confiscate it for a response team that was dispatched to retrieve it making sure that the CL covers up any evidence that it existed by dispatching any potential rumors leaks or just erasing any evidence of the asset or item’s existence.
5. A scenario I myself have experienced from the CL side of things was when there was a chemical that was in fact a biological weapon created by the company found planeside and my job was to have any survivors sign NDA’s which included bribing them if need be. Secure the chemical and then find out who else on the station may have known about it.
If playing Press Responder, what objectives do you consider within your power to give the CC?
My Job would be to give the CC certain people to interview such as the CO during certain parts of the OP, like maybe a disastrous push or even having the CC explain through in depth interviews what tactical mastermind was responsible for such a swift and decisive victory against the xenomorphs. Take pictures of certain events happening shipside or planeside such as pictures of different xenomorphs writing an article about scientific information on how the hostile chooses to uphold its hive or fight marines.
