I would need some help whit this mail i've got!

Post by Zarki »

Is this really necessary to answer? Under here you'll see what mail i've got!


Please always specify your charakternames.

Answer the Questions in the attachment.
If you are german and cant talk english well, ask for a german version. Bitte immer Charakternamen angeben.
Beantworte die Fragen im Anhang. Falls du eine englische Version erhalten hast, aber nicht gut Englisch sprichst, frage nach einer deutschen Version.

To get an Illarion-account you have to fulfill the following two tasks.

a) Describe what you do when you play a RPG. What relation do you have to your character?

b) You are an elfish girl, wandering throught the forrest, for the first time alone outside the elfish hometown. The wind plays with your long hair and you can hear some birds are singing. You are unharmed of every evil, never see pain in our live before. The gras under your bare feet and the sunrising over the near sea makes you happy you can smell the lovely summer breeze, and feel well. Slowly its getting dark and you went on your way home. Suddenly you met two drunken human men they tip each other as they see you and shout some dreadful words after you,one of them start hissing... End this story from the view of the elfish girl, as you play this charater.

May the gods protect you


please answer! i want to play this game befor nextweek then we go on vacation!

Which part isn't understandable for you?

Of course it's necessary to write this story, otherwise we wouldn't have asked for it!

Or should we write the story for you??

Every change from your side would make it harder for us to reply. The result could be that we need more time to answer.

The reason for this question is to see whether you understand the concept of roleplaying or not and to see what kinda of person you would be in the game (like if you'd actually be RPGing or just running around killing everyone you see).

For what I understand, grammer and spelling is important. Basically write like you would a novel (grammer wise, not length wise ;) ). It's not that hard.

I don't know if I should say anything else so I won't lol (strict rules)

Strict rules ?!?!?! Spell things correctly, use proper punctuation, make sure your writing is legdible and understandible. The most important thing I beleive they look for is your creativity and effort. Creativity to see if this is the kind of game for you, and effort to see if you are serious about following the rules.

I'm a newb so sue me :roll:

I'll admit, I think, to someone who's never tried the game out, the rules are kinda strict for that, but I'm sure it's hopefully for the better.

No matter what you show on the site it'll never say the final word for wether you like the game or not. I can imagine it to be a disapointment for someone who has been waiting for weeks on end to play and to find out they don't like it when they try the game. In that sense the rules are strict. I'll find out for myself in a couple of days (then you won't see me every second hour on this forum :twisted: ).

Please keep in mind that when I say this I am NOT against the rules for applying. In fact, if this game turns out great, I'm totally with the rules.

You must keep in mind, that this game is not for everyone. I am a quiet non-violent person who can have a war against himself. I am what some might call creative. I also have a tendency to make my teachers mad with run-on sentences explaining pointlessly everything.

Im not a player killer instead i hate them so damn much so you wont understand. In another game called Tibia ive got PKed bery much. And i dont even now if its able do so in this game and i would be happy it wouldnt. But thats the big problem I cant start play the game, becuse the GM just says that my answer is incorrect.

then show me a story thats not bad .. and I AM not good to write a story that was the best i could FFS.. And if that was bad as you say, you are puting to high requirements for a newb as me, atleast in this game. I dont even think, umm... lets see J.R.R Tolkien (if he would be alive) would make a much better than that...

We wont show you a story thats good, you have to show us that you fit in our game.

And with your last comments you clearly disqualified yourself.

We are neither Valve nor CipSoft.


How often do you want to try it again? 5 times? 10 times?
I dont think the quality of your answers will raise in such a short time.
