I'd love to build, but weekly would overload my life and turn me into a mammering husk.

Weekly is probably going to overload my life and turn me into a mammering husk (as you can see, I obviously don't come on Lusternia enough - I just found out about this today) but I shall try to come up with 10 room descriptions in the next three days anyway.
ohtaren2005-01-01 00:57:59
argg. I just got back from trips with no internet so I just herd about it. I will try and get it in as fast as I can. Is there any idea of what percentage of applicants will be accepted/how many are needed vs. how many roughly applied?

Which explains why lots of the rooms in the Inner Sea looked reeeeeeally similar last time I checked (like in closed beta, every single room title along the bottom of the Sea had the same typo)
Look out for a small mountain range and a slightly more creative deep sea in my application.

I think I might have overdone the number of mountainous/volcanic rooms in my app... I've spent too much time playing a Dracnari. *weeps for there to actually be volcanic terrain so he can utilize his racial regen*

I have something that fits the KIND of game Lusternia is, environment-wise, but the desscriptions mention things that refer to the other game. Would that be ok? Just to see if I've got the right style?

Easy to build lots of rooms that have the same desc. Much harder to fix the typos in them.

Pfft, Dracnari regen be useful? What are you talking about boy?
Just kidding. You never know when an area like that might turn up...
Akraasiel2005-01-01 19:55:31
I'm personally dying to get started working on building. I've got too much free time on my hands, and until things get built it will remain quite so. I love writing, thats why I play IRE games. They are like a saga, writing itself over a period of years, influenced by hundreds of authors. A living book that expands, changes, and develops as time goes on.
I hope that I make it, but I'm fairly confident I will. I've been writing for a while but have yet to be published in a hardcopy form. Ack.
-Please don't tease me Lisaera! It's not funny! When the first volcanic room shows up, I'll be on it like stink on a fly. Most likely relocate there from my current favorite spot, the Skarch. So warm and toasty... *dreams*

Hmmph. Trill regen is only useful when I'm running away a lot, like on the Astral. There's -nothing- to hunt in midair, for some reason.

Honestly, if you can't fix old room descriptions you made to fit Lusternia, why bother applying to be a builder? Same if you think your not going to have the time to do it.
Nothing is worse than getting people to take the job then having to rehire new people cause they won't do what was clearly expected for them to do. Its not fair to the Admins, and its not fair to the other people who applied. If all you want is validation of your skills, ask for input when its not application season.

I'm not doing it for a validation of my skills, I was kinda under the impression that's what THEY want. I'm asking because I'm very proud of this area, but it's rather dark and I've never seen any of the dark sides of Lusternia, so I don't know how I could change it to fit, right now.

Bah, I made my own descriptions and rooms and all, and I really like it (It's kinda an underwater village, complete with maze outside and waterfall and stuff) but I cannot possibly meet the once-a-week deadline. Is there any way for me to submit my idea and what I have and then someone else takes over building it for me? *makes puppy eyes at everyone*

Well...I sort of did mine on an impulse today. 5 connected rooms, 5 random rooms. I was just sort of sat there throwing ideas at someone when I thought hey, whatever, I may as well give it a try myself. I've certainly got the spare time and it's something I enjoy doing.
Now whether I'm good at it or not's another matter. We'll just have to see.

Thirty minutes til it's due (if it's going by an exact basis) and I still haven't got one room done. Go me.

Y'all post here so we can congratulate you, everyone who got accepted!
(Provided that's allowed, if not, don't kill me Divine, please )
EDIT: Wait, under 18s were allowed to apply for this, right? I didn't see it written anywhere that we weren't, I'm just making sure.
