Building ships was 90% me. The house looked like they did because we had no world edit. Imagine trying to build a map by hand. It's extremely tedious. The only house I really built was the farm house.
I can take credit for the houses, but it is so much easier to build big things

Sorry to change the goal posts, but you highlighted a major flaw in my application, how do I test map structures? And the fact that not everyone is applying to be a builder, so asking your best attributes as one is a bit ridiculous. Anyway, now that evidence is required for your role, evidence of work is something that shows me why you are the perfect candidate for the role you are applying for, for example, if you are applying for map structurer, good evidence would be previous builds that you feel are extremely well structured, or, as in UnchainedArtist's case, design work that can feesably be transferred to map designs and concepts. It's a tasking role, it's not just a case of "I want that there", you have to be able to balance the map as well as stay true to the source material in this case, so I really need to make sure I get the BEST of the BEST in this role, so without any evidence of your work, I can't really accept you for such an important role. Get some evidence and I'll reconsider, but for now.

DENIED

Not really, as much as I'd like to get as many people on board as possible, we can't really have people doing niggly little bits like that, it would just slow down the process.

Also, the server is now going to be whitelisted, so you can no longer just go on and build your applications, you'll have to contact one of the team, who'll then let everyone know you're coming on to try out. Then we'll all decide whether you're accepted. DEMOCRACY FTW :)

Here are a couple of concepts that Unchained Artist made:



Just gives an idea of what the map should hopefully look like :)

IGN: htimsaoniak (kainoasmith forwards)
Role: Any role would fit me.
Evidence of work (optional): None :( if you like I can send a few maps to you if you require some.
Three best attributes as a builder:
- Redstone genius, I can build digital clocks or timers for releasing the players and showing how much time is left until the game starts
- I am "obsesed" with all of The lord of the ring books and/or movies so I know what to make and what it should look like
- I am a fan of many different hunger games maps so I know how each weapon is balanced such as how hard it should be to get different levels of weapons and armor.

unfortunately I can only work on the map after I get home from school each day and on weekends, this wont be so much of a drawback because I can get in maybe 4-6 hours a week if I have time for it.

Well I'm keen to lend a hand as there are no LOTR maps yet so why not!
IGN: Krackan
Role: terraformer
Evidence of work (optional, but required for map structurer): well I can't really provide evidence for that as it just looks like a regular minecraft landscape but if you need an example of my work just let me know!
Your three best attributes in your chosen area:
- Extensive experience with voxel + world edit
- Worked on multiple maps that looked amazeballs (haven't submitted yet)
- I'm a baws

IGN: maukamauka
Roles: I would like to do either map structurer, or interior designer
Evidence of Work: I don't have any

Three Best attributes as a builder:
-I am good with ideas
-I work evenly and symmetrically
-when I'm enthusiastic about a project (like this) I work hard!

It would mean a lot to me if you accepted me. This idea is actually really really good!

You can be an interior decorator like me, we're going to needs more people in that role :)

ACCEPTED
Since you're a mod I'm assuming you're mature enough to only apply for a role you're good at :)

Well, you can't be a map structurer as you've got no evidence, but we can have you as an interior decorator :)

Thanks Mr Dice for letting me in. I am good friends with maukamauka and we may be able to work togeher over skype to do better interior decorating. I am not a terra former or map builder but I have a few suggestions that I may be able to share with you to make the map better such as the spider cave and bulding orc camps.

one other point, if we need more of one role or another I would be happy to help build the big map. I've been very experienced in World edit and it would be awesome to help out. I'll upload a map proving my abilities if the spot opens up. :)
