So you want to join the Discordian Society... Is that right?
Well, it's not us you should be asking! It may be right, as in, turning to the right in the middle of a Tau 29 trade lane... It may be right, as in "yes, you are right" (a Discordian should never believe what they read anyways)... It also well be: "Is this the right decision for me?".
What you really should ask yourself is... "Just how weird am I?"
1) Fill the following template and post it in this thread fnord:
Code:
-[b]Do you know what you want to roleplay as a Temporary Autonomous Zoner? [color=#FFFFFF](The type here : trader, templar, etc...)[/color][/b]
-[b]Do you have a character in mind in which you would like to roleplay? If so, tell us the history and general Roleplay. [color=#FFFFFF](Here you explain the character background/history, his mindset, everything related to his story. If you don't have any character in mind, no need to answer anything here)[/color][/b]
-[b]Do you have a recommendation from a TAZ? If so, name them.[/b]
-[b]Will you follow TAZ roleplay guidelines?[/b]
-[b]What is your experience? When did you join Discovery?[/b]
-[b]Have you roleplayed TAZ before?[/b]
-[b]Are you in other factions? If so, name them.[/b]
-[b]What will be your level of involvement in TAZ?[/b]
2) Once you have posted here and you qualify, the TAZ will give you five of these Discordian questions:
8) What is the question that has "mu" as it's answer?
9) Tell us the 3rd rule of the Principle of Discordia.
10) What is the "Sacred Chao?"
11) What does the acronym "POEE" stand for and what does it mean?
12) Who the thud is Greyface?
13) What is the curse of Greyface?
14) What does the Pentagonal form represent in the Sacred Chao?
15) What are the 5 orders of Discordia?
16) What are the 5 basic elements that composed Eris' fruits?
17) What is the Turkey Curse? (No, it isn't the ship flying around with the same name)
Answer them all correctly and you'll be welcome into TAZ! Answer some of them correctly and you will also be welcome into TAZ, but you will have to wear the dumb hat until someone else fails in such fashion or until you prove having aquired the appropiate wisdom.
Also, you will be required to send proof of you eating a hot dog without a bread bun on a Friday.
//Note that you can also join TAZ in RPrly fashion. PM me for details.

Everything seems to be in order pilgrim! We have picked the following fiver for you:
-Do you know what you want to roleplay as a Temporary Autonomous Zoner? Trader or priest
-Do you have a character in mind in which you would like to roleplay? If so, tell us the history and general Roleplay. It's Cinny. A former primary school teacher at Bethlehem Station, Pennsylvania. After a weekend visit to Shasta she wanted to take her students there on a school trip, the principal (and a lot of the parents), objected and preferred she'd do a visit to the Liberty Zoo instead. She complied yet during class taught the kids all she knew about The Sacred Chao, Erisianism and The Law Of Fives. While the kids loved it, the parents disagreed and complained to the school board. This got Cinny expelled as a teacher which made her even more willing to pursue that which she solemnly feels is right.
-Do you have a recommendation from a TAZ? If so, name them. It's been known already
-Will you follow TAZ roleplay guidelines? Yes, I would not apply otherwise
-What is your experience? When did you join Discovery? Joined in 2011. Had others serve me while being in the IND. Then moved on to corporate play, IC, USI and DSE which was soon to be followed with the Zoner way of life. Suffice to say: Trader, cash-hungry-girl, 2IC and 1IC experience and now in search of enlightenment or nowadays any way where Eris wants me to fare.
-Have you roleplayed TAZ before? Nope
-Are you in other factions? If so, name them. OSI (1IC) and MFE (self-appointed 2IC, feel free to ask Doc for references though)
-What will be your level of involvement in TAZ? Minimum at best (when I do more you can only admire me...)
