I too agree that we need to at least change the app or add to it.  An essay, or at least some flowcharts or something.  I'm all for massaging the questions and seeing what comes out of it.

I think the easiest way to change at the moment would be to update the app and then be a little more liberal with the /gkicks at the two week trial period.  And Dread if anyone would make people laugh as they left the guild or at least make a huge ceremony of it.

We need to get back to these people quickly though.  We have a few apps  whose sucktitude isn't above and beyond what we might invite with 2 votes or 1 vote and waiting on us to get the 3rd.   We've lost at least one app that we all got 3 yes votes to FTW.  Maybe we could send them in game mail on our decision so they don't jump ship before they've boarded and set sail with us.  And caused a mutiny, given us scurvey, and raised the mizzenmast of course.

Meshach has somewhat of an aptitude for this type of thing.  He cold calls people for his job and convinces them they need things like falling bookshelf insurance or got my head stuck in stairway bannister and starved insurance so getting people to apply is like vacation for him.

The stuff with trying to meet everyone or applying by running with a &quot;recruitment officer&quot; or veteran of FSE sounds like a good system, and I think should be a possible next step if this doesn't get us the results we want.

Anyhow there's some saying about doing the same thing and getting the same pirate booty...or whatever lets see what we can come up with.
