    Brawl Creative Ranks Application:

    What is your in-game name? - Pegleg98 - I have also never changed my in-game name and I currently don't plan to.

    What is your current rank? - I presently hold the rank of WE2.
    What rank are you applying for? - I am applying for WEPro (You'd think the title says it all)
    Do you understand what this rank provides? - Yes, I am aware that in addition to the commands and features that come with previous ranks, WEPro allows the following: WorldEdit in any location (within my permissions), and more plot claims.
    Are you part of any Building Teams in our community? - No, however I have helped out other building teams in the past, and helped out players with independent projects. I do not intend to join any building teams, but I will always be happy to lend a hand in any community projects or personal builds.

    What is your experience with building in Minecraft? - I have been playing Minecraft for almost 4 years, since July 2011 (BETA 1.7.3). I have known about WorldEdit for nearly as long. When I first started I played a lot on the McPublic Creative server. Eventually I got tired of building on their servers, I was never a fan of their policies and "traditional" ways. I usually skipped around servers after that, never really staying on a server long enough to complete a large-medium sized build. Meanwhile, I did a lot of experimenting with WorldEdit in single player, and I learned a hard lesson when I obliterated my first survival world and corrupted the save (Too much TNT). Since then, however, I have become very proficient at using worldedit commands. My experience in mathematics has helped a lot with that, especially with //gen, which is a pretty hard command to use. If you have a WorldEdit rank, select a cubic area and type:
    Code:
    //gen -h 95:2 sqrt((x^2)+(z^2))>=y^2+0.25
    Some of the more advanced WorldEdit users might already know what this does. Basically it generates a "wormhole" shaped object (It's really just two radial square root functions put together). I learned how to make complex forms like this through many hours of experimentation, and I can do more.
    I have been with Brawl for a little over two years now, and I have been building on the creative server for more than half of it (although not every day of it). In that time, I have built skyscrapers, maps, and more. My knowledge of WorldEdit and building has expanded during my time here as well. I have slowly risen up the ranks to WE2, applications here, here, and here. I now hope to make it to WEPro, to begin the next chapter in my building career.
    Why do you need the rank? - Since school is becoming less of a pain for me, I am finding myself with more free time. I have chosen to spend this time building. Really my answer to this question can be summarized in two words: More space. WEPro provides more space for me to build, and as long as 1.8 blocks aren't properly out on creative yet, my current build is on hold. I have a lot of ideas floating around in my head, and I still plan to build a spaceport of sorts at some point. I've been also considering getting into map building, which requires A LOT of space, which I am beginning to run short of. And of course I will need worldedit in that new space if I'm going to make use of it. So I do have a legitimate reason for this rank other than prestige.
    How active are you on creative? I know what you're thinking,"Wait a minute, that's not a question on the standard application!" I added this question for myself to answer because I have a long explanation for this and it doesn't fit smoothly under any other question. I haven't had much time for Brawl recently due to school, work, and my life in general. My general lack of activity these past months might make this attempt at WEPro a bit rough for me, but as school is starting to wind down I've been finding time to come on and build. I have made a lot of progress on my current project in the past week alone, and I plan to continue into the summer. You will be seeing a lot more of me on the creative server in the future, whether I get accepted now, later, or not at all.

    Show us a picture of your current build - My current project is a new KitBrawl arena. I know this just says to show a picture of my current build, but I'm going to go the extra mile and give some details. I've been waiting for 1.8 blocks to finish it, but thanks to worldedit I can use the new stone blocks. The designs in the sand were all done by hand, and so were the billboards and pixelart (obviously). My skills in worldedit came in handy with the varying heights and widths of the ellipses used to construct the sides of the arena (LOTS of ellipses). Anyway, here are screenshots of the arena:

    Keep in mind that this isn't done yet, that's why it's my "current build". I plan to add more detail in the stands and such (and in various other places). Also, just so you're all aware, the statues (the lions and knights) were built by another member of the community. I did have a few people help me with some of the time consuming things that WE can't do (like the stairs in the stands), and someone built some cool statues for me, so I included them.
    The plot ID is -3;4 in world3.

    Show us pictures of your previous builds - Some of these are builds I've used on previous applications, but they're the best ones I have to show you, and I would only show you the best. C:
    NOTE: I cannot provide proof for all of these, as some of them were done in singleplayer worlds. You're probably just going to have to take my word for it on those. Considering I've been a part of this community for so long, I hope that it means something.

    • A bridge I made in a world made with Worldpainter, most of what you see was made in about 30 minutes with WorldEdit. This was going to be part of an McWar map but I scrapped the project. It's a good example of what I can do in a short amount of time.

    • This is a WarZ build submission of mine. It's pretty much an overgrown military base in a forest. If you want to see the entire thing I recommend downloading the map as most of the screenshots are outdated. Thread: https://www.brawl.com/threads/8166/ Screenshots: http://imgur.com/a/vnDG6#0 Edit: Apparently I can't have more than 5 albums in my post so you're just going to have to deal with the links :V
    • An old project that was meant to be a base in a volcanic landscape made with worldpainter, I lost interest in this one so I stopped working on it, this is the only screenshot I can find: [​IMG]
    • This one is old. Nearly 3 years ago old. It's a hotel I made on the McPublic Creative server. I finally managed to find the map and restore the building (Updates kinda messed with the block ids). I never managed to finish it because the server did a map reset before I could. This build shows the level of my hand-building skills at the time.

    • My latest completed build, the New World Tower: I copy/pasted it from my small plot to a large plot and expanded it. It now includes a parking building and a larger parking lot, as well as some other modifications. The plot ID is -3;0 in world3. Screenshots:
      Click to view imgur album!
    • This was a WW1 themed sumbission I made for McWar, it was not accepted as many aren't, but it is a good example of how I can work with land. Plot ID is -4;4 in world2. This is the thread, and here are some updated screenshots:
      Click to view imgur album!
    Do you realize if you abuse any commands or privileges rank will be taken away? - Yes, I am fully aware that abuse of my privileges, commands, or breaking any rules will lead to punishment and I take full responsibility for my actions.

    Please insert a Yes / No poll below.

    Edit: Oh my! I had no clue imgur does that now. That's sweeeeeet! I'm going to have to reformat my application now dangit! >:V

    You are definitely worthy of WEPro that's for sure. Very great builds and nice knowledge on mathematics and WE :3

    Sorry. I do not believe you are fully prepared for the rank. The problem I have with the builds you have presented is that they are relatively simplistic—the detail is quite limited and the texturing either isn't appropriate or isn't present. If you improve on these two things and quickly submit a build that has substantial amounts of these two qualities, I think you will have a good chance at qualifying for this rank.

    I don't build arenas, and I don't want to further push this. I'm not looking to flame war.
    Let me describe my decision.
    While that colosseum is pretty well done, it is largely world-exited, and despite the two statues, nothing truly stands out to me. There is not a lot of detail outside of the playing area, as the same patterns are retained, same figures are used, etc. While the playing area involves a structure itself, I do not find it very well detailed or large enough, and the lack of an equal scale puts me off. Besides that, the other builds provided do lack some degree of the detail and structuring expected for such a prestige rank. However, I will remain undecided, as one of your builds, the New World Tower, is pretty amazing. If you can squeeze in another product like that, you'll have my positive vote.

    Thanks, I appreciate the constructive criticism, although do keep in mind the arena is my current build. I will definitely take your feedback into consideration as I continue to work on it.
