We're accepting applications since some of the people who expressed interest previously seem to have lost it! 'Grats to my burgeoning co-GM buddy, @ihinka! I'm the Makarov to her Erza (heehee) so no funny business. Okay, just kidding, I love funny business. No horsing around! Damnit, I love horses too! YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN! YES YOU! :)
Applications go in OOC section or PMed to me or my padawan as listed above.
Participants: @Zi , @SuperNova9000 , @DriveEmOut , @Irisity , @ihinka , @Mistiel , @Rhabdophobia , @Drazah (maybe?), @Steele (old GM and welcome back if returns miraculously from 3+ month inexplicable inactivity). If I missed anyone, feel free to shout down below. Do NOT add your characters directly to the character tab. If your charrie wasn't already preapproved in the old thread, then PM it to me and I'll add it for you.
For the sake of organization, the old thread's OOC format is as follows:

Synopsis
NASA is now accepting applications for their colonization effort. NASA scientists have found at least 3 planets they believe can sustain human life. The catch? Anyone who goes will be spending the vast majority of the nearly 800 year voyage in hyper sleep. All of the friends and family…the life they leave behind…will be gone when they awake. This RP can take place either right after the announcements are made as to who was accepted for the colonization effort or after they arrive in the new galaxy. Thousands of people are being accepted, you have been accepted as part of Team Omega, the first team to arrive to the new galaxy. Your team is responsible for visiting the 3 planets NASA has identified and choosing the one most suitable for a colonization effort. Once Team Omega has set up the home colony and been up and running for a period no fewer than 5 years the next team will be awoken from hyper sleep and the next phase will begin.
Planet 1:
Planet 2:
Planet 3:
None of the planets were named, leaving it to be named by the first humans to actually step foot and hopefully settle the new worlds. Where would you like to start first? Let your leadership team know, NASA cares about what you want!

Rules
The big bad scary list of rules:
Be nice to me and to other players
Follow all Guild rules
Post your character in OOC first and then they can be moved to the Characters tab once they have been accepted
If you can’t post or are no longer interested in the RP let me know and I will take care of it
@Mistiel I already transplanted my character, admittedly with some changes, to another RP. I'll see if I can muster a new one for this, because if it picks up, I really want to try it out and see where it goes.

Did the transplant include enough changes to make them unique to whatever RP it was? I just don't want to see you make a new charrie for this, have virtually no one else reply, and then the both of us get screwed over lol.
I'm also wondering if I need to change all the station and NPC names and whatnot so it's not technically plagiarism since wherever I take the story is probably not where @Steele would've taken it.
@MistielIn terms of personality and background, yes, although I did keep the names of her parents, so... But I kinda also wanted to keep her appearance for this one... And, of course, I don't want to reuse the way she looks... And I also woundn't feel right just picking a new face for her... I'll have a look around the internet... See what catches my eye... And then decide if I can keep most of her story and background with the new face...
I want to be the 'Security guard' or something like that, like all the scientists are there then Im there to keep them all safe. (To the best of my ability that is) Is that an option?

Since I kind of want to run this semi-ME-Andromeda style, sure! :)
