Not at all, I actually feel more confident since there is a less chance that the next one will not be rejected.
...You do know you're sending your applications to a human and not the law of averages right?

Yes, but maybe something else other than what my application should be from the GM would show me that I am getting close to not being allowed to send once more.

There is no warning issued because this is done manually.

See, yesterday we got applications from players almost every minute.
And when I see that we rejected one player 3 times in 30 minutes (some applied even more) because of the same reason I issue a "pause" to that one.
See this as a "Calm down and wait a moment before you apply the next time" and not like a "You never gona play that race".

If the concepts are supposed to be vague, then why on my second rejection did the gamemaster tell be to give more detail?

He just explained, that not the concepts should be vague...The racial concept given on the mainpage for you to work with is vague. Which means you can still have a unique kind of gnome/fairy/goblin, but still within racial limits. Your own concept of your goblin/gnome/fairy itself however should be detailed.

Screw goblins and fairies. They're weak and if they're not ugly then they are too small.

Caksies! or...Polesies!... but ingame i only found one goblin that did that and the others i encountered didnt.... so.. can it go both ways? or is the one that was squicky wrong or was the one without squicky wrong?....i was planning to play a squiky voice goblin btw..

It can be assumed that city dwelling goblins talk more normally, although I'd expect many to still talk the classic goblin way.

I didn't understand the explanation the first time. Thanks for clarifying. Now however...I am pissed. I shouldn't be ,but I'm pissed because I've been rejected 3 times... I guess I don't know how to make a good, detailed concept... How the hells do I make a good and detailed concept?!

Wanted to be a thief goblin.
GM did not think I was fit to put a new race in the game.
Maybe, after awhile they may let me.

I stress "MAYBE"

Mh. Indeed, after 3 tries and you still don't get accepted, you give up. I quit until they become a normal race. :roll:

My concepts are never good enough.

How do you fail thrice? I know of many people who got in on their first attempt. The test is NOT difficult. Just think a little.

We should make a "got-in-at-the-first-attempt"-club. ;)

Anyhow, big thanks to all those who decided to put in these races for players. I already see so much opportunity for these little critters.
