 - A lot
    - 6:00-7:00am-Midnight On Weekdays
 - I know lots of modeling within Sketch-up and have learn quite a bit with Mr. Wallet's Scripting Class
 - Army RP Organization Mod is a custom mod I am currently working on. I also have tested many other add-ons in the past, though naming them is almost impossible. I am also currently a beta tester for Blockombat.

I would rather be the guy shooting the person. If the two guys were fighting each other, then wouldn't you rather live to fight another day? I would rather kill a guy to survive than to be shot and potentially die.

Everyone seems to be missing that.

I strongly reccommend that people send this response to me in a PM so other people cannot plagarize off of it.

Also Qualifications and previous work are meant to be the same thing.

Edit: thanks for adding a response, Leet.

PMed you.

I'd rather shoot the person to watch them die and hear their last words.

There are two people in a place completely secluded from anyone else.  One is on the ground, the other is standing over them holding a gun.  The person holding the gun points it directly at the other and fires.  Which one of those two people would you rather be?

 my standards as my beta tester list gets longer, so apply early!

I probobly wont get in but worth a try.

I would be the one being shot as the shooter could miss or only wound me and i would not be hunted down like him

[SonicDude2]

Nexus i know you didint make this yourself, I know blockstar and hes a friend of mine, And he told me he helped you make it.

Nexus i know you didint make this yourself, I know blockstar and hes a friend of mine, And he told me he helped you make it.

What is the "it" that you refer to and lol no he did not.  I don't have the impression that Blockstar is a proficient scripter.



An important note to the people applying:

The last question is intended as a literacy test.  Basically, I want to see how intelligently you can convey your opinions and thoughts, as well as giving reasons to support your response.



Some responses to submitted answers:

I would rather be the guy shooting the person. If the two guys were fighting each other, then wouldn't you rather live to fight another day? I would rather kill a guy to survive than to be shot and potentially die.

You may not realize, but you basically restated the question and gave the simplest "yes/no" answer possible.  I reccommend identifying your values (what you think is important) and explaining your response with them.

I'd rather be the shot one, and before I die I want to look straight in the other guy's eye, leaving him a scar on his heart for the rest of the life. And either way, I don't really want to kill anyone so I'd rather be the killed.

You go into more detail and give some insight into the kind of thought process behind your desicion through the description about what your last act would be, but you can still elaborate on what turns you away from the choice to kill.


I will give an example response on the caliber that I am looking for:

In a situation where I had the option to die or murder another person, I would choose to sacrifice the other person to save myself.  While this will likely cause moral hardships for me in the future, it is a fact that it is better to face challenges and take them on rather than to surrender to them.  I see morals the same way.  Giving up should never be an option when the alternative is death.  I would try to overcome these moral hardships by giving to the community to leave an overall positive footprint in history.

How much I play BL
  -as much as I can, ~2-5 hours a day, maybe more on occasion
How much you know about scripting/modeling
  -just a bit for scripting (playertypes) and modeling I understand, but can't do it.

Qualifications/Previous Work
-Nothing of Modding importance. Builds: TDM/Siege/CTF's that are relatively popular.


Obviously he's shooting the other gun.

I don't care who I am, I'm not going to die. NINJAEDIT: I'd be the guy shooting since I get to fire my gun and he doesnt



if that's not the case:

I would rather be the person being shot, since the fact is we are all going to die someday, it matters more on how we will die. I would rather die instantly instead of having to be on the run for a long time, dying at the hands of police or poison.

I'm not sure that I entirely understand your position.  While it is not a requirement that you take a black and white definitive stance, you seem to go back and forth without giving alot of reasoning behind your choice.

I think you were on to something when you say "it matters more on how we die," but then you seemed to end short.
Could you perhaps fix this up with a more definitive thought process?

There are two people in a place completely secluded from anyone else.  One is on the ground, the other is standing over them holding a gun.  The person holding the gun points it directly at the other and fires.  Which one of those two people would you rather be?

It implies the person is pointing the gun at the other gun.


I'd prefer a quick death is what I'm saying, rather than a prolonged period of suffering (cold, starvation, thirst, apprehension, paranoia) while being on the lam.

The phrase "the person holding the gun" does not imply two guns.  If you are able to say "the gun" there is not another gun in the situation.  Otherwise it would be "a gun."

Don't just do a short "I would (not) kill him because I couldn't kill a person/don't want to die" answer.  Explain your reasoning as best you can.

Anyone is welcome to apply, the more the merrier.  There is no limit on current open beta slots, although I will probably raise my standards as my beta tester list gets longer, so apply early!
