2010-05-18 [Alexi Ice]: Sure. I used one for a diffent character and posted it in my diary but I know of a couple
2010-05-18 [Veltzeh]: Someone could collect those (or links to them) on one wikipage! :)
2010-05-18 [Alexi Ice]: That would be a good idea!
2010-05-18 [Veltzeh]: I also have a few character questionaries hidden somewhere around my computer, I'll see if I can find them.
2010-05-18 [Eyden13]: Yay!
2010-05-21 [Flisky]: The Three Person Interview - this is something I did a little while ago when I had writer's block. ^_^ Maybe it might spark some ideas.
2010-09-16 [Alexi Ice]: I really wonder how you judge something like this, ya' know?
2010-09-16 [windowframe]: Well a lot of it is seeing if people can actually RP the character they gave us in the bio. Then it's a case of seeing which characters avoid the biggest cliches and so forth.
2010-09-16 [Alexi Ice]: I read most of the profiles, once the judging is over, do you think I could see what you liked/disliked about the people? I'm curious as to how to make myself a better RPGer and this seems like a quick way to do it...also it's just something I'm really interested in
2010-09-16 [windowframe]: Humm. Personally, I'm happy to give individuals feedback on their character/perf
2010-09-16 [Eyden13]: I'm in for individual feedback. It can't so anything but help.
2010-09-16 [NOOOPE]: I feel that's a little unfair for us mods, however. When an art contest, poetry/prose contest or photo contest goes on, the mods are not bothered to give the contestants critiques. Usually a winner is announced and the mods/judges are trusted with their decision.
Since characters can be very special to their rpers, I see why you would stress about the details our decision, but this is a competition just like every other competition on elftown, and if the mods don't have the time or motivation to give you feedback, they are not obligated to. Expecting feedback is not fair.
I mean, if one of the mods is willing, all the power to them. But still, I think you should all treat this like any other ET comp, and if you don't win just say to yourself 'better luck next time'.
2010-09-16 [Flisky]: I agree with [NOOOPE]. Feedback would be appreciated, but not entirely necessary. If a mod does not have it within their power to do so, it seems unfair to demand for it. ^_^
2010-09-16 [Eyden13]: I Agree ^-^ But I like it, but wouldn't mind if I didn't get it. I guess I should have said that I'm cool with just Akane getting feed back.
2010-09-16 [NOOOPE]: No one is getting feedback unless the mod is willing to give it. It doesn't matter who asks for it. No one should expect feedback.
If you truly want a critique of your character, maybe you should set up a character critique forum or wiki. You could even have your friends read your contest page and ask their opinion.
2010-09-16 [Alexi Ice]: Lol! Awesome, I created a discussion. That's not really what I asked for. I don't want critique of anything, I want to know how you judge this kind of contest. I.E, what are you looking for, things like that. As I said, after the contest is over so no one changes their style to fit the format. I've never participated in an RPG contest before, it's got to be differnt from the others, right? Kind of like the story contests, except your interacting with other people. It just all seems like such an alien contest...
I do like the idea of having people read/critique the contest page. You might want to stress that that should be done once the winners are annonced so no one becomes a better RPGer halfway through the contest, you know?
Anyway ~
2010-09-16 [NOOOPE]: RP Contest Ideas <- this is where I submitted the idea for this contest. There are other ideas... most of which we're not going to do. The first one on the list is this contest and my suggestions for judging it are basically what we did.
First, we three mods read all the bios and discussed how original, well written, and interesting they were. We then assigned the bios a score out of 10, 10 being perfect.
We then did the interview, which was again, to see if they could write, but more importantly, we wanted to see if they could stick to their bio and play the character they presented. If they did indeed rp their character accurately, we would then determine how interesting that character was to interact with. Basically we were trying to assess whether we would want to be in an rp with that character.
When the interviews were completed, we listed the pros and cons of the experience.
The final decision will be based on the bio score and the quality of the interview rp.
2010-09-17 [Alexi Ice]: Thank you! That's amazingly interesting, and so complicated! It's differnt for most contests after all. Ohhh...*Follow
