Which section would you like to judge?: Roleplaying

What is your availability like from now until July? Pretty good. I don't have any vacations planned for that period and I'm usually around anyway. So I think I'd be all good to go with no troubles and no worries.

Please note any experience you have: I have judged for the Creative Writing section for WAR quite a few times and even though it's been a while since I've been the judge for WAR RP, I'm familiar with how that works and what I'd use to grade performance for that. I've also been a WAR Leader many times so I'm definitely familiar with how a lot of these kinds of things go.

Please outline an example challenge: I would handle the PXFIRE RP the same way WAR RPs were handled in that there's one ongoing RP throughout the entire duration of the PXFIRE Event. I would also make it clear that the weekly cutoff for one week's of submissions going into the next would be Sunday at Midnight. That's when the end of the current judging period will take place to continue into the new one for next week.

My plan for the RP is to make an open suggestions/RP wishes discussion about what people would like to see in the RP in terms of themes, setting, what they would like their characters to be like and capable of, and things like that. I know I can't make everyone happy, but I would definitely try to do my best to make most people happy and create an RP that I think would have great longevity and will stay hot, wild, and spicy throughout the entire event's duration.

I also plan on grading performance by:

  • Driving force - If your character is doing more to have an influential impact on the storyline, you'll get more points from me. Characters that just seem passive in terms of the storyline will likely not earn as much as one that is interacting a lot and takes a more front row seat to get involved.
  • Written content - Are your posts interesting to read? Are you capturing the true nature of your character and making them feel like an interesting character to follow? If you are, expect some more points added to your pot.
  • RPer interactions - If you're doing a lot with the other player characters, you'll tend to see more points coming your way than someone who RPs too much by themselves and feels like they're writing a fan fiction rather than interacting with others.
  • Formatting, Spelling, and Grammar - As long as your posts have proper spelling, grammar, and look clean and presentable, you'll definitely see more points. But if they're rushed and it's obvious they were tossed in there too quickly without proofreading, chances are you probably won't be earning as much as you could have with a cleaner and more presentable posts.
  • Activity Level - This one isn't AS important, but there's still some value in posting more often. Someone who posted ten times during the week is more likely to get more points than someone who maybe only posted three times. I'm more of a quality versus quantity guy, but for this, both are pretty important.
