APPLICATIONS

[rubycitymods]

APPLICATIONS

✗ Applications are processed weekly, every weekend. The cut-off time for the submission of applications is 11:59PST on Saturday.
✗ Before applying, please read the FAQ and Rules pages.
✗ Please submit your application with the journal you plan to use if you have one made already. If not, another journal is fine, but we prefer your intended journal so it makes for an easier time in granting access to the mod journal and the contacts page.
✗ For very long applications, we would ask you to please separate them into various comments so that they will not take up too much of the page.
✗ Please title your application as { [CANON/CANON OC/OC]CHARACTER NAME || Series Title || reserve/no reserve || X of X } in the subect header
✗ IMPORTANT: Our application form was edited on September 07, 2015. Please use the revised form.
✗ If you are looking for an example of what an application should be like, please refer to the application here for an example of a canon character application, and here for an original character application.

A note for CR AU applications
Ruby City does allow previous game history/CR to be brought over on a case by case basis. If you want to include this in your application please add additional sections for PERSONALITY DEVELOPMENT and PREVIOUS GAME HISTORY beneath the Personality and Background/History sections.

In these additional sections we would like to see a brief outline of your character's previous game history and how it potentially impacted on and altered their canon personality.

REVISION REQUESTED

[rubycitymods]

Thank you for your application.

At this time, we are requesting a revision of the personality section. Specifically, we feel that there is not enough given at current to substantiate Dipper being one of the main characters of "Gravity Falls," and would like to see more information on what drives his decisions as a character. We would also like to see some information on his character development, along with canon examples added as reference points.

Feel free to submit your revisions at any time before the next app cycle, and your application will be processed as soon as possible!

Due to personal issues in real life, I am actually going to be withdrawing this app. I may submit it again in a few weeks when I've dealt with some stuff.

I'll be sure to improve the personality section when this happens.
