			==My Characters==
			[[Syntax]]: They were my first character on Flexible Survival! They're a tech wiz spider girl with an appreciation for old world tech. They're also very, very Irish.

			[[Wolfwood]]: A rarity in the modern age of Fairhaven! This young lady doesn't just look young, she actually is young! A mechanic born and raised in the boonies who managed to escape the deadly effects of nanites.

			[[Sigrun]]: A birby birb who lives up to her Australian Magpie mutation. While she struggles with her instincts, she's passionate about aiding her birth city and works with the police department as part of their rapid response team.

			[[Bandit]]: A cultist of three Greek gods of dreams deposed from her former home, she has gone across the entire country to find the means to create a new dedication point for her patrons.

			==Introduction==
			Hi there! I'm the person behind several characters, several plots, a member of staff, and a heaping pile of confusion! My username on here is Syntax McBucketface, but I'm better known as Screwbucket or McSpazz.

	~~\| page color = black~~		Some themes I love to tackle are exploration, R&D, character studies, and any story that involves diving into the weirdest aspects of the setting. I also absolutely love world building and I think it often shows in my story arcs. If any of that interests you, you're in luck! I'm also a confirmed judge and regularly host events! I will also happily moderate your own events if given an early heads-up.
	~~\| page border = black~~

	~~\| cell color = black~~
	~~\| cell border =~~
	~~\| cell text = orange~~

	~~\| link color = cyan~~		I've been RPing for a long time now (since about 2008...pretty good timing considering P-Day) and I can't get enough of it. I'm pretty easy to find on Discord if you're in the Flexible Survival server. Feel free to hit me up!
	~~\| link hover color =~~

	~~\| header color =~~		As a staff member, my primary roles are to help oversee judges, handle Eureka content, and help with deed and NPC talk script creation for players.
	~~\| header border =~~
	~~\| header text =~~

	~~\| custom title 1~~ = ~~About Me~~		==My Judging Style==
	~~\| custom position 1 = left~~		I have two ultimate goals with my events: Try and give everyone a reason to be there and reply with as many "yes, and's" as I can manage. If people have an idea, my goal is to try and find a way to make it work and at least have some kind of result. Clever ideas are rewarded as is taking advantage of your character's unique quirks. I don't dread people breaking challenges I put before them because they bring something unique to the table, I relish in it.

	~~\| custom title 2 = My Characters~~		But this can be challenging to do when you have both newer and older players playing side by side. Leveling up skills can take time and there are some vet players that literally cannot roll lower than a 6 on literally any skill. Rather than punish people for being long term players, I've tried to strike a balance. On the one hand, I do limit the number of skills you can have trained to 40. On the other, I actively reward people for purposefully nerfing themselves. Below you'll find my full list of rules. Some things are standard for judges, some are unique to me.
	~~\| custom position 2 = left~~

	~~\| custom title~~ 3 ~~= My Judging Style~~		1. Reverse WS rules all. Room changes or players dipping in and out, whatever happens, the order will be reverse WS.
	~~\| custom position 3 = left~~		<br>
			2. Well written posts will be rewarded! Well composed and/or creative posts with solid backing may have their difficulty reduced! If you can make a convincing case that an action would be trivial for your character, I might be willing to forgo a roll entirely.
			<br>
			3. Always announce what you want to do OOCly and make your rolls BEFORE you write out your action ICly. Otherwise you might end up looking a bit silly if you end up being asked to make a roll only for it to fail.
			<br>
			4. Players with the [NEW] tag will have the option of rolling a D20 with a bonus of +1 to +4 depending on what they believe their character should be capable of. This can be extended to players who have not invested much into their skills on a case by case basis.
			<br>
			5. You will be given a single WUMBO dice for every stat you willingly reduce to 20 from 30, one WUMBO dice for every stat reduced from 40 to 30, and/or two WUMBO dice if you both have and disable Jack of All Trades. Wumbo dice will allow you to reroll with advantage or to roll a d20 to reduce the severity of a failure. Please note that you must prove that skill's trained level so I can make note of it BEFORE the event starts in order to take advantage of this. These can be used alongside hero points! If a stat you offer to reduce has no possible utility in the current scene (ie: Computer in the middle of the woods), I might reject the sacrifice.
			<br>
			6. Have all of the equipment you plan on using during the event when it starts and be prepared to prove it is on your person if asked.
			<br>
			7. If you have to go before we finish, please let me know what your character will be doing in the "background". I'll be sure to factor that into future rolls in that event so your initial attendance means something.

	~~\| custom title 4 = Judged Event Logs~~		My ultimate goal is to get people to consider what their characters REALLY excel in and to lean into it as well as give newer players a chance to shine. So far, the rules have worked out pretty well!
	~~\| custom position 4 = left~~

			Also, yes, WUMBO is a Spongebob reference. I have no idea why I settled on that. The word just spoke to me.

	~~\| overview position~~ = ~~off~~		==RP Logs==
	\| ~~contacts position~~ = ~~off~~		{{#dpl:
	\| ~~disclaimer position~~ = ~~off~~		\|category = Syntax Events
	\| ~~hooks position~~ = ~~off~~		\|userdateformat = jS F, Y
	\| ~~logs position~~ = ~~off~~		\|mode = userformat
	\| ~~stereotypes position~~ = ~~off~~		\|format = <ul>,<li>%DATE%: [[%PAGE%\|%TITLE%]],</li>,</ul>
	\| ~~gallery position~~ = ~~off~~		\|ordermethod = firstedit
			\|addeditdate = true
	}}		}}
