Greetings

[Hyperspatial Travel]

I've traded marking tests with Trailers (brief explanation: Kostemetsia, the guy I gave tests to, is also my vassal in-game, so there's always the possibility of bias), and so I will be marking your tests today. It's been a pleasure to read them.

Without further ado, here are the marks for your tests.

Test #1: It was good. No, no, it was still quite simply put, awesome. I enjoyed the fact that you're a lot more focused on your characterization and plot above anything else (which is a problem that plagues a lot of Nationstates), that you managed to weave the famine/new government into a good storyline, and that your characters (well, Chin, really), were really well-constructed.

98%

Test #2: My favorite of the three. Although the ending was predictable from near the start, it was also really, really good. It was a story that didn't rely on shock to convey its point, but rather, we were aware of the point, and the story was made or lost by the quality of its conveyance. I enjoyed it thoroughly. I went back and read it again just because I liked it, rather than because I was marking it. I may be considered lenient, but I honestly found it hard to fault you on anything on the second story.

100%

Test #3: My least favorite of the lot. Good, but shorter than the others, and I never really got a feel for who the president was. It felt a little rushed compared to the other two, and I didn't quite understand why Mauri was going to blow everything up even after they surrendered. It wasn't as close and personal as the other stories, though it was still good.

You've done better than almost anyone's gonna do, and for good reason. Marking those stories was a pleasure. Welcome to the ESUS, someone will get around to activating your account and all the shiny forum access that goes with it soon.

Hm. I think I have activated him. Try something CS.

It works.

I'll be honest and say I couldn't draw myself into the situation asked of me. It was a bit out of my comfort zone so yea, it was rushed.

Ah good. I'm new at adminning and not well associated with all the levers I need to pull.

Welcome, Celestial!

Good work and welcome aboard. It's always good to have new people joining up, especially when their admissions test responses make mine look like they were written by a third grader.

I give Trailers a ride to school and back every day, you think I wouldn't know how to banter.
