Requesting it from you in the app was not a request? :)

The less-then-serious questions are a sort of personality check. I'm guessing you aren't one for jokes. Or filling out applications fully.

You also missed some "serious" questions.
- Why Simple Math? Is there anything else you'd like to tell us?

- Run an internet speed test against New York at speedtest.net Link the results below.


And these questions, sure, hey, you may know the answers perfectly, but we don't know you know. The answers you gave say you put about as little effort as possible into them.
- Explain your choice of gear for main & offspecs: Max DPS Gear
- What glyphs do you use for each spec and why: Standard Shadow Gylphs
- If you are applying as a DPS, what is your normal rotation? Standard Shadowpriest.com Rotation



To be frank, I think the 3 minutes I took looking at this app was more time then you put into making it.

Questions like whats your rotation is a little insulting since you guys claim to be a good progression raiding guild. If you look at parses, you can clearly see I know the rotation of a shadow priest.

So yeah, I didn't put a lot of time into those questions because to me, they are not relevant.

If you look back through other apps, you'll see that once we drilled into other people with vague responses, we got some really interesting (and wrong) responses.

Now, after taking literally 30 seconds comparing your logs and Xenodrake's, I see what could be priority queue differences that would account for him being consistently higher on the meters.

And that's why we ask these questions :idea:

The flavor questions are relevant for personality, to see how well you'd fit into raids with the current group. But if you want to show zero personality, and on gameplay questions assume that your versions of standard are indeed the standard, that's up to you, its your app. Doesn't really help your chances, though.

If you think you are so good you don't have to answer questions to "apply" somewhere good luck. I wouldn't walk into a job interview saying, look man I have my degree from school just tell me if I can have the position or not.

You have to give the people a reason to want "you" over anyone else. Basically you sound like a dick and don't show you know anything about the game.

There is a large difference between stupid questions and pointless questions. Nor, as tan said, did you only skip the stupid questions. It's ... insightful.

I'm gonna stop this here. You have the opportunity to refill it out if you wish, otherwise we're not going to consider this app.
You laugh because I'm different. I laugh because you're all the same.
