Is it possible to edit my application while it's in the review phase?
Basically, I wish to add more information and background to my character backstory, and I'm afraid I'll be denied for lack of specific information before I have the chance to fix it.
Yes I am well aware I should've made sure of that before posting my application, but at the time I didn't think much of it. If it's not really an option, then it's fine and I have no problem staying with the current backstory- for better or worse.

I've unlocked your thread so that you can make the edits before it gets officially reviewed, shoot me a PM when you're done so I can re-lock it.

Is it possible to reapply after a namechange even though I was denied less than 3 weeks ago? Or do I still need to wait the 3 weeks?

You’ll have to wait out the three week cool down regardless of a name change.

(Apologies for my username, I plan on requesting it to be changed before I post an application, though will do so sooner if it's absolutely required)
A friend and I plan on applying for the LSSD together, and we can't figure out whether the current idea we're going with is approvable in the first place. The core of the idea is two (identical) twins who would be serving as deputies together. The research I did never returned a concrete answer for any real life scenarios like this, which is where our concerns lie. We haven't yet fully fleshed out the idea, so we'd like to know if they'd be plausible as characters before we fully dedicate ourselves to the concept. Thank you!

Even though I can't grant you a pass without handling the application: If the character stories seem reasonable, that's not a reason for a disqualification just because of the fact you want to portray twins.

Thank you! That was all we wanted clarification on, so I'm glad to hear it's not off the table.

I have completed and submitted my written test, I’m just wondering how long the results tend to take, as I was hoping to pump a couple hours in this weekend.

Thanks everybody.

It takes as long as it takes. Shouldn‘t be too long.
