Okay, so maybe you won't die, but still, you won't know all the awesome stuff you'll know if you take the time to read this pretty little post right here.
To save confusion on a lot of issues, I thought I'd make a nice little thread to sort shit out and save a lot of admin botheringz. Not that we don't like it when people ask w=questions, oh no. Questions = Good. Bothering (ie the same questions all the time) = BAD. BAD = Cassie makes sorting-shit-out-thread, Lovely, no?
RIGHTO on with the stuff.
First off, I would like to make it clear that we are a COMPETITIVE SITE. this does not mean we run around racing each other or anything, oh no. What it means is two (or more) people can apply for the same character AT THE SAME TIME. So I don't wanna hear any bitching and whining about "but I applied first and now there's somebody else and blah blah blah" Yeah, I stopped listening around the and because said person didn't read this thread right here, which means by logic of Cassie, they were admin bothering. Which we've established is BAD.
Anyhoo, two people applying for the same character. Yes, it could be more than two but let's just say two to make life easier for Cassie at this moment in time, kay? So if one person finishes their app, then the other person has ONE WEEK to finish theirs so they can be judged and compared and the final verdict can be made. This counts even if you start your app just as they finish theres. It's the rules kiddies, deal with it/
And did you hear me say 'deal with it'? WELL, that leads nicely on to the next point. NEGOTIATIONS BABES. If Person B does not think that they are going to be able to finish within a week, then they may ask Person A if they would mind waiting an extra amount of time? Say, two or three days. I don't care, the time negotiations are up to you.... Well, unless you want to get an admin involved but I'll get to that later. Well, if you can negotiate then all is well and good you can have that extra time, no probs. HOWEVER PLEASE REMEMBER PERSON A CAN SAY NO. they don't have to negotiate, and whining to the admin about this may be counted to admin bothering as it's well within the rules.
See, that led nicely on to the point about Admins?
So, us Admin folk MAY OCCASIONALLY get involved. Our presence in your negotiations is not a constant thing, and really you should be able to sort it out amongst yourselves. HOWEVER if you have a good reason why a week simply won't work and person A is refusing to negotiate you may, take it to the admin. Say you're going on holiday, or your internet's broken and you simple cannot work within that week or something, then we may allow you extra time.
Extra time is not a given right though, please remember that. We'll try to make sure everyone is happy, but we can't always promise you'll get exactly what you want.
Is that all cleared up now? Yes? Fabulous. No? Fire your questions, I promise it won't count as admin bothering. ^^
