Applicant Ambassador!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Won't be able to raid next week.  They changed my schedule to swing/close (6pm-2am).  I'm still supposed to be having my dental appointment monday...so I "might" be able to raid monday.  I'll see. 

If not,  best of luck to you guys!

Be on tonight for a "full" clear, I assume people will be MIA... haha.

Seen him in KB tonight thought he did a ncie job, good Dps. Looking forward to see him raid more with us.

Did ToC 25 MALT run with you guys/gals today.  Although we had some hiccups,  the spirits were high.  Haven't seen that in 25 man runs before.  Lookin forward to Monday's raid!

One word for mister CRAWFREEESH here...

BEAST!

Raided ICC with him the last 4-6 weeks and put him in my 10 man and he is very understanding and a great learner. IMO, Pro!

You seem to have a lot of stuff right, haven't seen any parses yet but I do have a few questions.

• Do you use RAWR.  If not, get it, play around with it.  Elitist Jerks Mage Forum has an entire section dedicated to setting it up.  It'll shows you with your current gear/spec/raid/buffs/etc will effect your DPS and can be used to breakdown rotations and what not.  It does take awhile to get used to playing with it, but its worth it.  It'll also help you with gem selection.
• Change the meta gem in your helm to the Chaotic Skyflare Diamond.  With the gear and spec you have, you shouldn't have a problem with your mana when properly using CDs (including Frost Ward and Fire Ward on the fights that they apply to), so there isn't a reason for the 2% mana gem.
• From you Screen Shot, I see someone talking in raid, yet I don't see Grid.  Get Grid.  With no raid frames period I don't even know how you're Decursing effectively in raid.  Grid + Mouseover Macro for Decurse = WIN!!!  You should be able to Google the mouseover macro for Decurse, or if u get up with me in game I can copy and paste it to you.
• What kind of car do you have?????

I think thats about all I have atm.  

Schedule is going to be tough.. i guess let us know which days you work the early hours and see if you'll be avaible for a tryout.

If only you could raid more days........       ...............sigh.

Hello sir or madam, and welcome to the Downfall recruitment process. If you fancy a quick invite, have thin skin, or like purps over people then don't waste your time reading what follows, just press on now.  If you are a skilled player, or even a player in need of a little molding, and you have time to dedicate to dead bosses, and to a community of people that do more together then play a video game, then here's a few things for you.

Recruitment Process

Step 1 Application : Well you've already completed this step by taking the time to complete our lengthy application.  Some think it's silly, we have documented proof that it easily weeds out the douchebags before wasting too much of our time.

Step 2 Who are you? : Type /join dfrecruit in game.  This will put you in our global chat channel for recruits.  You'll find lots of Downfall members in that channel often shouting for people for random heroics.  This will get your name out there, let people get to know you.  The more people you get to know, the more people will begin to comment on your application, and thus keep it "alive"

Until you start to get comments from those who excel in your class, or those who have nice/not so nice things to say about you as they get to know you, it's up to YOU to keep your application active, it's not just a matter of posting and never coming back, we are a website oriented guild, get used to using it.

Step 3 Raid Tryouts :  Raid : mAlt opens up 3 slots on it's semi-monthly Sunday's for raid performance tests.  We parse these events and can see you in action before we bring you into a 25 man progession raid.  For more info on mAlt and raid times/sign ups: /raidgroup/malt

Step 4 Be There : Be online during 25 man progression raid times, its even better if you're on from start to finish, since people will DC mid raid.  If you're apping to raid, it's a long and grueling process.  We DO need consistant skilled players for both 25 man raids, and you're not the only person trying to get that spot.  What we like to see is our apps posting on the raid events that they are available to fill in on a given night.  Then if you've posted that you're going to be on that night, make sure to shout our a reminder in dfrecruit just as raid is about to start just to let us know you're on. It may be weeks, it may be months before you see action, but you may end up with a spot the first time you join the recruit channel. 

We have TWO 25 man progression raids:
Raid : Kitten Brigade /raidgroup/kitten-brigade   Mon - Wed 6:30 - 10:00
Raid : Salmon /raidgroup/salmon   Tue - Thu  6:00 - 9:00

Well that's what you can expect for the next few weeks/months.  We've had applicants that have waited over 3 months for an invite, we've invited people within a few days, every situation is different. So get you're name out there, get some comments, and good luck to you!
