26. Suppose you go home, enter your house/apartment, hit the light switch, and nothing happens - no light floods the room. What exactly, in order, are the steps you would take in determining what the problem was?
What? I'd assume first that i forgot to pay the bill, but physically I'd check other electronics on the same breaker, then check the breaker, then huddle and cry in the dark.

I met George Bush once, that guy is smrt.

Not sure what tribe is all about, but im sure it will come with time.

Did you read the CoC? That explains what we are about somewhat. Also browsing around on the public areas of the forums should give you a pretty good idea of who we are. You won't be able to see the private areas of the forums though but in there you will find things on recruitment, strategies, feedback on potential new members, etc.

Your app is pretty good, I liked it. You have a lot of stuff in there about being a leader. Are you going to be comfortable if you are never in a leadership position in Tribe and are always a follower? I'm not saying this will or will not happen but I wouldn't want you to assume you WILL be a leader at some point.

Ben/Kerupt will have some additional FPS specific questions for you in order to process your application.

HEY AXID!!

Um i was telling axid about how !nR would be doing a CAL COD 4 league this season and he wanted to play some competition so i went through the basics of what we are going to do like scrim times and etc and non hardcore mode. He said that was cool and i told him to put an app. However, my application to the tribe community is still pending i am a part of the No Remorse squad that will be playing this CAL season, so in a sense this is my vouch for Axid that he is a smart and intelligent player in Call of Duty and could be a valuable addition to our team.

Right now I am just a player, leader or not. I haven't a plan for being a leader just a supportive teamate. I've been playing fps for going on 10 years now, seen clan drama up the wazoo and intend to have fun and avoid all that usually comes with clan politics.

Here to play, rock and roll!

Hey axid. Good scrim last night! Pistol vs Sniper FTW!

Here's the FPS Specific Questions:
1) What, if any, competitive experience do you have in First Person Shooters?
2) Good FPS teams require unquestioned leadership and critical analysis of playstyles. Are you willing to A) Follow snap decision orders in matches without questions and B) If you have questions regarding deicisons, or strategic ideas, be willing to discuss them in an open manner after scrims/matches without confrontation?
Give an example where you have done something similar to question 2 in real life

1) fps experience hails from Rainbow Six. Was on my ol mac back then playing via gameranger clans. Played in clan [SAC] which was a group of brothers and friends in the sacramento area in Rainbow Six and Urban Terror. Played in 3 urban terror clans who competed in twl and clanbase ladders i believe (sorry its been a long time). The last urban terror clan I ran (was [sac] revival team) was up to 40-50 members, sadly enough we fell apart in the finals after being undefeated. Then i made a brief stint playing COD for a clan called AOW before I got bored and started playing clanless bf2.

2) I have a fast and sneaky play-style, yet my strengths are knowing where to go to stay alive (and do the most damage) and make sure my teamates have better cover and a reliable teamate. Now I've been a follower in small clans, and a leader in big clans, but handling either has never been a difficult thing. The game revolves around snap decisions and team organization and communication. I've played long enough to practice and preach these things. Its been at least 2 years since I've clanned so I really don't have a real world example anymore that I can remember.
