HEY THERE! i haven't been at som for very long, but i'll try!
1) i think the pacing is okay! and backtagging is okay too, but i'd be sure to ask around and see what the others prefer, y'know? i don't have a problem with it, but you never know! if you post a thread somewhere it might seem a little slow, but it'll pick up speed pretty quick. majority of the tags i've done around som have some kind of ending to it, y'know? when people roleplay with you, it'll get done!
2) i've only been around for one event, but it was pretty interesting! for december we have a winterfest thing going on, and we had a few other christmas-ey like events too. and last month, we had a big event right here (http://somarium-ooc.dreamwidth.org/225037.html). we even had like a follow-up kind of event, if people didn't get to participate/wanted to do a little more. i didn't participate in the battle itself, but there was an aftermath kind of thing where everyone's worst nightmares came to life in front of them, and i'd have to say i enjoyed that!
3) i'd say all characters would do well! we have characters from avatar and lord of the rings, to dc, doctor who and disney. any should be fine.
as for the test drive meme, i don't think that gets updated on the main part of their comm page? that confused me a bit when i first wanted to join, too. to be honest, i didn't even know they had a test drive meme when i first applied. but anyway, we have a test drive meme running right here! (http://spamarium.dreamwidth.org/6361.html) feel free to drop a post!
i hope i helped. i joined in november and i haven't been around to see all that much, but som's a really interesting game! the people here are very friendly, and willing to offer a hand!
