I'd like to clarify some things about our process, for all the people thinking about joining the Underground. As Twilight states in his post, recruitment is currently a closed process. Which means, it's not your typical "apply and get considered" process. While we do look at all applications, we're not looking to expand the team much further.
We look not just at characters, but the players behind them. The application you put here is just one part of how we consider an applicant. What we are looking for now, and always have been, is someone not only whose character fits in with ours, but a player with whom we can relate. So we consider based quite a lot on how well we think the player will fit in with the rest of us.
Mismatched. Misunderstood. Mostly Good.
There are also a number of other factors we consider. We're a democratic group, so deliberation is a subjective process. So there are no absolutes except those outlined above.
In a general RP sense, the Underground is a bit like Fight Club, which is why you've no doubt seen a familiar font on our web page and so forth. It's like FC in the sense that the Underground is not flashy, not public, not well known and would like to keep it that way. Our characters for one reason or another would like to keep their activities on the DL, even if one or two have articles written about them in the newspaper . And as a FC-inspired team, it has no head. No leader. We're a democracy, and we decide things by voting. Therefore, we each have our own input and equal say in the process.
That extends to the non-RP aspect, which is why deliberation can be a lengthy process. So if you've applied, and are awaiting a response, please be patient with us. We're doing the best we can.
So if you are considering joining us, I urge you to put forth a serious application and hang in there.
And I'd like to add...
The Underground is a team made up of misfits that may not fit in elsewhere. We fight the good fight and go about our business, not expecting or wanting the publicity that sometimes comes with being a hero.
We do not have our HQ in the sewers. We are not a dark and brooding team, though some chars may be such.
As far as playstyle is concerend, play as much or as little as you want. There is no requirement. Group with the team if you want. Or go solo, but know you have the rest of the team to call on if need be. Starting out a low level makes no difference. We can SK if needed or join you as one of the lower lvl alts some of us have.
Enjoying the game and the company of other like minded gamers is the creedo of this team. We often hang out at our HQ, use TeamSpeak and chat in AIM in addition to our in game interactions.
Feel free to contact any of the team members if you have any other questions! :hollis:
