Admin Application - AbsDaLegend

I don't mind being more involved with the other games our clan plays, but I passionately enjoy playing that one specific game. I've played for several hours a day since last August anghghghd this is reflected in my number of games played statistics. During my time playing this, I've become close to the regular players, I've become accustomed to them and believe have strengthened the community further. You can ask any of the regular players whether you believe I'm deserving of this position or not. I feel I can be a beacon of justice whilst playing, to get rid of the constant trollers and teach newcomers the basics, but at the same time know my own limits so as to not abuse any privileges. I know the responsibility such a role demands, that I would have to get even closer to all players and be a leader of sorts, so as to represent our clan to all types of players, newbies or regulars. The idea of becoming an admin was further reinforced when I was told I should apply by a few people like Xutopia, Upsettu and OCD. I feel I've arrived at the stage where I can begin enforcing rules and maintaining order within the game rather than just watch it fall apart. For example, I had a game lasting 2 hours because the vampire refused to move from the fountain in the middle. Now, I'm not really complaining because I could've easily just left and joined the next game - no harm done. Except it's a waste of all the time leading to that point and by just leaving, the vampire will feel like he's won and will repeat this tactic again and again. If they know that they can be beat no matter the time limit, then perhaps they will leave earlier? Players like that abandon all gaming etiquette and ruin it for others due to their egos.

I would also love to teach new players how to play! I've had players like jackaboy, nat157 , mage.noir - all ask me to teach them how to play. This would be so much easier if, for example, I could host a game with the bot with just me and them in it, that way I could tell them what to do and when to do it, just to grasp the basics, then they have atleast a little experience before going into a real game with regulars. Several regular players get really upset at new players due to their feeding, but I understand that this is a consequence of every game. And instead of being upset, we - the regular players, should be the ones guiding the new ones forward, so that they actually want to play the game more! So that they join the community and want to donate and genuinely have fun! 

Anyways, that's my essay done, I appreciate the time you take to read this, I know how busy you all are !
