▶ RECRUITMENT DRIVE

This drive is now CLOSED.

With the loss of three ships and the destruction of four crews, there now exists a vacuum to be filled. As per this video posted to the network, ZDG Command will be taking action in not only replacing what they have lost, but reconsidering the structure of the Grid as a whole to make it the best it can be.
  • Captains, first officers, pilots, and operators will be actively trained up and sought after, and you can put your character forward to be considered for these roles in the comment sections below. All aspects of the mini-application will be considered by Command (and mods).

  • We want to build two to three crews, based on playerbase population. We will open this up for more in the future, but please do not let that prospect deter you from coalescing into teams for now. There will be future recruitment drives that may shake up structures, and the standard Recruitment page with captain sign up will remain a constant.

  • Usually, captains must be able to name a first officer, a pilot, and an operator to apply. During this recruitment drive, this requirement will be foregone, and blank spaces will be filled for you by Command (and the mods), streamlining the organizational process. You can still nominate these positions, though, whether they are IC or strictly OOC. We will assume you have permission from those players.

  • No IC experience is required to apply for the above roles, but will still be considered along with other criteria during selection.

  • We encourage all crew volunteers from the Return to Harbour plot to follow through on this step to solidify your place in the ZDG.

  • Those that apply and miss out on their first priority roles will be reassigned based off their mini-app. Prospective captains can be first officers, pilots can be co-pilots or trained up in heavy weapons, operators can be software specialists, anyone unplugged can be a Matrix operative, and so on. There is a space on the form for you to fill our your desired backup, and you will be given opportunity to train up (if needed) in the skills of your primary pick.

  • While heading or being a part of a PC crew is not essential to participate in plot or Matrix missions, it will afford you a lot more flexibility to do so. You will be able to develop consistent team CR, as well as freely enter and exit the Matrix without needing to handwave NPCs or wait for plot opportunities.

  • The OOC signs up aspect of the drive will close on April 19.
  • Comment to the below forms, but also feel free to ask questions, discuss amongst yourselves, and so on. Over the next month, we will contact players as crews are formed, and announce our new fleet when the drive is ended.
