 IRC Nickname: Chimpy Group: Banned Posts: 2521 Member No.: 1474 Joined: November 16, 2008 Total Events Attended: 133 | Application for Council 1. Have you read and understood the warning? Yus 2. What makes you think you can last a long term in the council? I've had an unwaivering devotion to WG since a little over a year ago when I was accepted, and have been one of the most loyal, and most active members in WG, through the hard times and the good times. I've also had past experience in leadership roles (granted not in a "clan" per say, but a cult ) and I know what I'm up for and I am more than ready for it. I'm a hard worker, and I enjoy being in a leadership position and creating new things and policies for the clan, and (hopefully) making WG a better place.3. Is there anything coming up in the next 6 months that could make you highly inactive? Besides rage quitting if I don't get council, no 4. Why are you applying for council? I want WG to be the best it can be, and live up to its potential and regain it's former glory. Most clans nowadays when you mention WG say things such as "LOL WG", "Wg's still alive?", "I thought they died 2 years ago lol...", "ROFL HIS LORDSHIP NOTHING LEFT LOLOLOLLOLOLSGSJGLG", and "Wow that Darth kid is a shit tank." I want them to be scared of us again. I want them to know who we are. I want to regain the respect that we once had. However respect is earned and not given, and I hope to help us earn the respect of the clan world once again. 5. What does WG need most and what will you do as a council member? Activity Activity Activity. Although there are a few problems slowing down the clan, I think that most if not al can be traced back to activity. Plain and simple, we're not active, regardless of what you all think. Our pull to the MoD PKRI was what 36 with 5 emeritus's? That's pathetic, that's only 50% of our ML, we should be pulling that to day prep's. We can't even compete with some clans that our on our level simply because they are more active than us. Here's my simple breakdown: Actvity > Good Pulls > Wins > More Members > Can compete with more clans > Former Glory restored. For info on my system I hope to implement, look HERE. It's a harsher system, but being nice hasn't worked to well for us thus far. Many think that gaining more members and actually being good will hurt our community, but our community was best when we were a top clan, were we not? 6. What puts you above other people applying for council? Nothing. All are good applicants and I wouldn't want to take anything away from them. All are my friends and I wouldn't want to do anything to try and outshine them, for they all deserve it as much as I. 7. What is your greatest weakness in terms of being a leader? I don't really think I have a "weakness" per say. I get a tad frustrated though when people do anything to hurt this clan or put it down. (skip wars, don't sign up, go inactive for no reason, etc.). And I can be a bit stubborn at times, but I've learned to curb it over time. 8. Is there anything else you would like to say? We can do this. I know for a fact that we can. We just all need to believe in ourselves, and work together as a team. United we stand, Divided we fall. 9. Do you agree to provide the council with two weeks notice if you wish to resign? Absolutely.\ Sig:

 IRC Nickname: His Lordship Group: Founder Posts: 6029 Member No.: 1 Joined: December 26, 2007 Total Events Attended: 129 | E. MARSHALL (AKA His Lordship): Application for Council 1. Have you read and understood the warning? No, I don't understand the warning at all. I wrote it while I was highly intoxicated. I believe it was Malibu and tropical punch. I don't think I've even read it since the time I wrote it. SO the short answer is no, I have not read and understood the warning. 2. What makes you think you can last a long term in the council? Well, I have been in this clan for six years now and the experience I have accumulated could be put to good use. I can't really think of anyone on the top of my head that has dedicated more time to WG over the years. Admittedly I have left the clan for a short 3-4 month period, but returned having realised how much I love WG. The act of leaving is strong, but the act of returning is even stronger. To have left WG that one time, and return, shows a lesson hard learned. I would say it takes a truly dedicated member to return after being cast out of his or her clan, and that's what I did. This stands as testament to my dedication, and therefore my durability in a leadership position. 3. Is there anything coming up in the next 6 months that could make you highly inactive? I will be on vacation for the next few weeks, but after my return, I will be free to continue giving my all to the clan I love. Actually, over the course of 2010, it is likely that I will become increasingly active. 4. Why are you applying for council? Ah, the million dollar question. Mostly for shits and giggles, and I am slightly intoxicated. How unlike me to do stupid things when I'm drunk (SEE STEVE?! You're not the only one who can make old-skool jokes). I also think I could use a little bit more attention. Oh yeah and all that flowery bullshit about how much I want to help the clan. 5. What does WG need most and what will you do as a council member? WG needs recruitment above all other things. We have always been a clan that drew strength from numbers, and the greatest minds of our history knew this, such as Kenshln. As a council member, I will enforce requirements for members to actively participate in recruitment, and I will return WG to its old ways. AntiRPKing and the historic codes of honour. They have been dormant for a long time, but not dead. If we resurrect these, and find a cause to fight for, not only will activity pick up, but also recruitment. It is clear that many members joined because they fell in love with our cause. I will bring that cause back to life. Before all else though, WG needs a sense of fun. I want to make it so that when you are in WG, you are living the moment and not working in frustration. Tertiary leaders sometimes get unhappy with a lack of progress, and these goals they have set are good, but I think I will try to let them know that they have time to stop and smell the roses. 6. What puts you above other people applying for council? I'd probably say I have the most experience with WG and the most knowledge of this clan. Well, more than the other applicants I suppose. My long term durability in a position of rank is also unrivalled. I have a strong ego which I can use to persuade people to consider my point of view. I try not to manipulate people though, and I strive to deliver truth. In all my leadership actions, I am humble, and never throw my weight around. For these reasons, I am the most eligible candidate for council. 7. What is your greatest weakness in terms of being a leader? Sometimes, I can't give as much time as I should. I have all the skills, which I spent six years fine-tuning and working out, and I have all the resources and a great team that supports me. But I let my team down by not being there for them enough, and they need me. This makes me sad often, but I channel that sadness into motivation to improve my own activity. 8. Is there anything else you would like to say? A vote for me is a vote taken away from the other candidates. As I am already primary leader (and Darth said everyone is eligible), me winning would mean the council stays the same. This is particularly good if you don't like any of the other douchebags who applied. So yes, vote for me if you hate everyone else, and if I win, the council stays as is! 9. Do you agree to provide the council with two weeks notice if you wish to resign? I will never resign. I am so convinced of this that I will not answer yes or no to this question. Heard that before? Well, judge according to my track record. Here's to six more years! ____________________ Please put this in your signature if you support me.  --------------------  | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
