Caroline Soupes HoS Application - CalliopeSoups - 07-09-2024 Usual character name: Caroline Soupes, Grup Guppy, Il/legal Skeleton BYOND username: CalliopeSoups Discord username (if you are on our discord): Same as BYOND Recommended by (if applicable): (I know I had one at least, but I forgot who... I'll edit you in if you remind me!) Goon servers you play: Mainly classic, but I drop by RP 3 occasionally. Reason for application: I love this game a lot, as it might be obvious to some. I enjoy playing security (although I don't roll it as often as I used to) for one, but also as a mentor I just already like teaching newer players and HoS naturally tend to be who they ask, if one is present. I also feel like Classic is wanting for some new HoS players as, although it doesn't need to be the HoS, a leader role in the team can help a lot especially with the decisions you might need to make on classic and encouraging communication. I've delayed putting another application in for a while until I got medication but also because I tend to doubt myself a lot, but I've been giving the advice on calls and such for long enough and been cheered on by enough people that I'm up to trying again, even if it takes longer. Security experience (300 word minimum): I started playing security on RP, as I used to mainly play there. It took me a few months to build up the courage as the game kinda petrified me at the time, so I started with sec assistant and 'graduated' my character to officer after a while. I started pretty over eager I think, I remember enjoying one round where I caught someone and said "Shoot first, ask questions later!" and while I think the scene was funny I quickly learned to roleplay my arresting according to what the crimer is doing and how they're roleplaying it. Over time I gradually shifted to playing classic and I think it's been long enough to say I'm firmly a classic main, though I like playing RP sometimes too. The shorter round times and higher chaos with extra antags is what made me stick to it. Classic taught me (and is still teaching me) all the hard lessons like 'don't stand right next to the guy you know is evil'. Experience on both servers is very useful for security even if you don't end up liking one or the other, as I think classic trains you to know when to execute people while RP trains you to know when and how to spare them. I've not really kept count on how long I've been a mentor for, but I've been playing HoS on fridays since becoming one so I've played the role enough to know that I enjoy it. While I've seen most situations at this point the game still manages to surprise me, and the variety of jobs on top of the social aspect keeps me coming back. Related a little to that, I don't exactly play security nearly as much as I used to. I thought this was a reason to delay applying at one point but realized how silly that was, as not playing security a bunch every day is a good thing evidently. I do think I still have things to work on, complicated problems can make it hard to come to any decisions and I know I've fumbled a lot of rounds because I let someone go worrying I'm going too hard. Above all I think it's just important to come to any decision and make apologies later if it wasn't right. Answer two or more of the following:

Previous bans (while this will not affect your application lying about it will): I've asked for a self ban twice I think..? Once at least, for a week. Apart from that I think I've just received one or two small warnings. RE: Caroline Soupes HoS Application - Solwra - 07-10-2024 Didn't draw a picture, -1 But in all seriousness I've had enough experience playing with you as a HOS and being a security officer under your command during fridays and I can confidently say that you 100% deserve to be a HOS. I've never seen you ever be a bad actor and you have shown to be a very helpful and active member of the team everytime. As for decision making I wanna say that hindsight can be a bit of a bastard thing to deal with and everyone eventually doubts on their decision making. It's just the nature of the chaotic gameplay and my advice is not to dwell too much on that. +2 to compensate. Shows all the qualities of a great HOS, no doubt they'll fit into the role pretty well. RE: Caroline Soupes HoS Application - Megapaco - 07-15-2024 I never see Caroline Soupes as security but I do see Grup and that pretty fun to play with. I do also agree classic needs a few more regular HoS in rotation and Grup is more than qualified for that imo. +1 RE: Caroline Soupes HoS Application - Fuppy - 07-15-2024 I've had fun interactions with Soupes in sec. I don't think I've ever seen them hone in on solely trying to win, which is saying something since they're a very competent secoff/player. +1 from me. RE: Caroline Soupes HoS Application - Chasu - 07-15-2024 The few times I've seen them as SecOff or HoS, they struck just the right balance between protecting the crew and giving the antag enough space (haha space pun) for an engaging round. Definitely someone who deserves to roll HoS full-time RE: Caroline Soupes HoS Application - jan.antilles - 07-18-2024 After review of community feedback and internal deliberation, we have accepted your application to become a HoS. Congrats! Please familiarize yourself with our HoS Guidelines and reach out anytime if you have any concerns or questions. |
