What would one of your friends say about you?
"He's Batman."
Are you a team player?

So I can port players to Jormy and hit Spike Flail.
What interests you most about being a GM?
Porting players to Jormy and hitting Spike Flail.

Put Jormy in Mordion so I don't have to do so much work porting players to Jormy before I hit Spike Flail.
Have you had any past experience as a GM?

Yes, I was a DM at a 32 hour marathon session of Jormungands and Dragons. Everyone died. Repeatedly.

whasf knows I'm Batman.
Tell us a bit about yourself!
I'm Batman with a pet Jormy. He wouldn't fit in the tights or he'd be the new Robin.
Anything else you would like us to know?
I'm not really whasf's son, I'm his clone.
Short Answer Questions
Explain what you would do in each situation.
A player’s character is stuck on top of a building and they don't have an instant warp.
Spike Flail.
A group consisting of: 1-75 and 4-10's are in Valkurm Dunes and they are killing 95% of the lizards in the zone for the FoV page for the low level people. A group of 6 level 11's come in and they want to exp on them too. The group of 6 complain. What do you do?
Can lizards use Spike Flail? If so, Spike Flail.
You are unsure of the punishment for a rule.
Mash my face on the keyboard. One of these damn buttons has to be "Punish and torment player for using the ticket system."
A player has reported another player for breaking the rules.
Jail the offending player for breaking the rules, then Spike Flail the first guy for tattling.
A player complains that someone else lotted an item that was intended for them and didn't pass. Do you move the item? Why or why not?
No comment.
A player is doing something wrong, but there is no rule against it.
Call whasf at 3 AM local (if it's not 3 AM there, wait until it is). Ensure that I'm all choked up with tears because this job is just too damn hard and I don't know if I can go on. Wait for him to talk the cigarette out of my hand, because a slow death is torment for everyone around me.
You have mistakenly jailed a player, how would you rectify your mistake, causing as little inconvenience as possible.
Well, I'd give them free stuff! Like an Adventurer Coupon and a Spike Flail.
Player "A" is sending Player "B" harrassing messages. Player "A" files a complaint. How do you handle it; do you jail player "B" and if so, for how long?
Tell A that it will be handled. High-five B for evoking a response. Encourage B to create a new account so that it appears I've done my job.
