RULES

[soulping]

This game will be two rounds, and the first is just answering the questions! The second will be performing your job based on your answers. Both rounds will last one hour, and the winners will be the ones with the best performance in their job or the most amusing or sensible (to Nafuna) answers on their interview.

For the interview round, you are to answer all questions as a team. If your group is made up of members of multiple teams, then that counts as your single team for this game!

INTERVIEW DISCUSSION!

[soulping]

[doublechecks]

...I'm assuming we all have to answer this together.

[ he's not even sure how he could answer these too. ]

[debate_avenger]

It seems like it, yeah. These questions aren't well-suited for a group that just met, though.

Re: INTERVIEW DISCUSSION!

[debate_avenger]

Either way, let's go with the easy questions first.

Number four, I figure we can see ourselves in our own worlds, because we had better have gotten this fixed in five years.

Number five, our biggest weakness is probably that we just arrived, which comes with all sorts of weaknesses by itself: A lack of cohesion and understanding of each other's abilities, for example.

Number twelve is unlikely, unless someone here knows sign language.

Number thirteen, I would say probably not, and she probably wouldn't want it anyway. Maybe if we charged her for it, though.

[doublechecks]

We could also name the Rotten as our biggest weakness. [ ...yeah. ]

Re: INTERVIEW DISCUSSION!

[pronounced]

Twelve could be done if you made a sign advertising it for sale.

[hardertheyfall]

Some of these are going to be hard since we haven't been here long. I guess that means we could answer "new" for number nine.

[doublechecks]

I think we could answer #2 with: 'Something detrimental that could impair us for a long while.'

Or we can just write 'Pain', too.

[pronounced]

That's a big vague, isn't it?

Re: INTERVIEW DISCUSSION!

[pronounced]

For eleven, do you think we're allowed to say that our patron makes us uncomfortable?

[hardertheyfall]

She makes you uncomfortable?

Re: INTERVIEW DISCUSSION!

[debate_avenger]

We probably can, yes.

[hardertheyfall]

Ten is easy; to get back our memories and save our worlds.

And I think we should guess at number fourteen.

[debate_avenger]

There's a math formula for that, actually. I can try to do it as long as you don't mind me writing on the back.

Re: INTERVIEW DISCUSSION!

[pronounced]

Do you think it's possible to leave some of these answers blank?

TURN-IN

[soulping]

Re: TURN-IN

[debate_avenger]

TEAM NAME: Gulgallana

1.) What would you say your skills, as a team are?

We're motivated.

2.) How would you define suffering?

Pain.

3.) How far are you willing to go to achieve victory?

We would force-feed each other stale bread.

4.) Where do you see yourselves in five years?

Ideally, back in our old worlds. We would like to have rebuilt our worlds before five years have passed.

5.) What are your team's weaknesses?

We arrived this very day, which means it and everything that comes with it are our most obvious weaknesses; We lack cohesion and knowledge of eachother's skills.

6.) What accomplishment are you most proud of?

At this very moment? Filling out this survey.

7.) Tell me about a time you made a mistake.

One of us made a suggestion that Rotten put something pink in our dorm. We wound up with a cherry tree.

8.) If you saw another employee stealing from the company, what would you do?

Make a note of it for future reference, but don't otherwise do anything about it.

9.) Describe your team.

We're new and we have Rotten as a patron.

10.) What motivates you?

Getting back our memories and saving our worlds.

11.) What makes you uncomfortable?

Rotten

12.) Can you say: 'Peter Pepper Picked a Pickled Pepper' and cross-sell a washing machine at the same time?

If you're giving coupons to people that buy from you, you can.

13.) If I came to your house for dinner, what would you prepare for us?

Probably nothing, considering our patron. Which is just as well, since you're probably not interested in a free meal.

14.) Calculate the angle of two clock hands when time is 11:50.

1/2(60H + M) - 6M = x
1/2(60 * 11 + 50) - 6 * 50 = x
1/2(660 + 50) - 300 = x
1/2(710) - 300 = x
355 - 300 = x

x = 55

H = 11
M = 50

55 degrees.

15.) Has a member of your team ever killed another living creature? Did they enjoy it?

Not as far as we know.

talk to fairy maybe

[malthusian]

[ if you have questions, Nafuna's just hanging around the room, too. ]

[hardertheyfall]

You wouldn't let Wipe die here, would you?

[ He just doesn't believe it ]

ROUND 2

[soulping]

[ Congratulations! You are the CLERKS. You are responsible for record-keeping and budgeting.

Your training scenario is simple -- your current budget is currently too low to afford much in the way of safety equipment and routine maintenance for anything other than the most expensive and hardest to replace equipment. Employees below you are also not receiving livable wages, which is leading to a decrease in the quality of their work. The ENFORCERS are also lacking in proper enforcement equipment. You must decide whether to raise the budget or not, and how much it should cover. ]

Re: ROUND 2

[pronounced]

[ wow what.... what is this even. nothing in her mind actually comprehends this ]

[doublechecks]

I'm all for increasing our worker and enforcer's welfare, but I'm not sure if prioritizing them would result in a good thing or a bad thing.

[ ... ]

Or we could always focus on the machines and ignore the people, safety in handling procedures means less death, right?

TURN-IN

[soulping]

[doublechecks]

We've decided in increasing the budget in a 1:2:1 ratio, focusing on increasing employee incentives in order to increase productivity. (eg. Getting a raise for managing to learn how to maintain machines etc. )
