Okay, now that I'm actually home, I can reply to this! Read the whole app on my cell phone while at work, but my damn phone recently decided that LJ reply forms are evil and won't let me use them. X( So...

History Section:
I'm in agreement with Lina on clarifying a couple things here and there. She's already listed what I had in mind as I was reading through this section, so I'd go with her suggestions. One of our mods (Eve/Faetan) and one of our helpstaffers (Dragon) are familiar with GR, but as far as I know, the rest of our crew isn't, so details are always good to give a clearer picture.

If you're looking to add a bit more to this section, you can probably do so with some highlights from the series that involve Six. I did the same with Rex when I apped him into another game called Scorched so that I could make the mods aware of some of what he'd been through without the app going on forever. (App's here if you'd like to have a look. Skip down to the last 3-4 paragraphs to see what I mean.)

Personality Section:
This does look pretty good, but I'm agreement that beefing it up a bit more might be a good idea. Adding the ranking system to this section could help lengthen it a bit and help explain why Six behaves the way he does a good portion of the time, so I'm all for that. Another bit of info that might add to this section would be why he stopped his attempts to move up the ranks from Six to One. I do think that particular moment was an important one between Six and Rex, and was very telling in regards to Six's personal priorities. Abandoning the chase because he met Rex and cares enough to stick with him (possibly similar to how One stood by him) speaks volumes for his character. Six has also had his moments of being harder on Rex than he perhaps wanted to be, thanks to White Knight's insistence that the leash on the kid be kept as tight as possible. At the start of the series, Six told Holiday that there was obviously something wrong with Rex after he met with Knight, likely grumpy due to the pressure being put on him. But as the series has progressed...well, he's come to be the guy who will actually put on a smirk when Holiday cuts a transmission from Knight so they can go looking for Rex in the middle of a sandstorm. Loyalty to those he cares for is definitely a quality of Six's that might be worth mentioning, as well.

Powers Section:
Perfect. I'd leave it just as it is! \o/

First Person Sample:
First part works great! The only problem is that the second part is a bit repetitive, as there's not really a need for help finding Rex if the locked part is filtered to him already. Hmm. (Damn these antisocial characters, LOL.) Maybe change to a question as to whether there's an area within the city that's good for combat training? Or something like that? Trying to think of stuff Six would actually ask about.

Third Person Sample:
I'm gonna say you've nailed this section. :D It meets the word count requirement, plus it offers a bit of insight as to how Six thinks. That you've incorporated bending is a bonus, IMO. Obviously I'm not a mod, but to me it demonstrates that you've bothered to look into some of the game mechanics and how they can be applied in a situation. That you've mentioned his previous attempts at bending didn't work out is also good, as it shows that you're aware that it's a skill that needs to be practiced and worked up to over time. So I'd leave this section as it is... Personally, I'm lovin' it. X3

Overall, I think if you just add a bit more here and there, you'll have a really solid application. And given we're about to have more metaplot dropped on us mid-month, depending on when apps get reviewed, you might get in just in time for that.

Poor Six, though. He'll have the frustration of dealing with a Rex and Holiday who aren't from the same point as he is... XD The last thing Rex went through was getting the anti-toxin for the Chupacabra venom. Fortunately, canon updates are super easy to do in this game, so I can catch Rex up with Six at a later point in time, maybe once new episodes start airing again.

Thank you very much! I'll work on incorporating both your and Lina's suggestions. :D I really appreciate it.

Thank You Numero Dos! sixthdeadliest June 9 2011, 23:56:48 UTC
I expanded the History and Personality section along with fixing the First Person section. I left the Third Person section alone since I trust your judgment on that. :)

Could you please take another look? The History section in particular is something that I'd like you to see. I tried to include mostly the episodes where Six played a major role of some kind. Please let me know if I missed anything important.

Phone's actually going to let me reply here...I think... naniteknight June 10 2011, 02:10:19 UTC
I think you've got it all down! Everything looks solid and ready to go to me. :D Good job on the history expansion and nice addition to the personality section. I'd go ahead and post that all up to the Wake's app area. Just use as many consecutive comments as you need to make it all fit.
