I'm not intimidated. So there.

In all seriousness though, I hope the final decision won't be purely based on post count. If it is I at least hope having a decent 'posting rate' is taken into consideration (please see profile since I have joined).
I can practically guarantee that Ronar does NOT base his player choice decisions on post count. You need not worry about that. He looks for ideas and style, and a PC who will blend into his vision for the game/world.

I don't know where the idea of choosing players from post count came from but I'm sure that it's not a good way of choosing players and I don't believe a GM as Ronar would do that.

However, I am intimidated by the expected player quality from the various staff members and players with a long story of PbP under his hands, and I do feel that will be hard to any GM to choose me, a newbie, instead of a great player, but hope is the last thing to die and I just hope my character concept would be good enough to be chosen.

If not, well, there's more games and the world wouldn't end.

Good luck to all in the race for a spot.

As stated, some GM's actually set a place or two aside in their minds for new players (i do, for example).

And, Ronar gave me a chance in a world, when I was a newbie, so I know he's done the same. Chose a relatively new, unknown guy to play a part in one of his worlds.

Whether or not I ruined it for all the rest of you newbies by my game play.... remains to be seen.

And lastly, again from experience, having post count or even red/staff tags doesn't mean you get an automatic in. I've missed out on a game or two with him, because my application just didn't pass muster.

So, I can honestly say, I think everyone has about the same chance here, roughly. Do your best application, and let the chips fall.

Already in a Jade Regent game or else I'd apply for this one. Ronar is a top notch dm, and a fair guy so don't be intimidated by name colors and post counts. Throw in a good app and you're as likely to get accepted as everyone else.
Most of all, have fun!

If you really wanted to thank me, everyone would withdraw their applications, so I have no competition. Any takers?

Anyone?
