    Would you consider yourself experienced with WorldEdit? Why? - I'd say I'm okay with WE. I know all the basic commands such as: //set, //replace, //flip, //rotate, //move, //stack, //br etc. However I do not know any very complicated/advanced commands, like calculations and whatnot. I feel like my current knowledge of WE is good enough to build anything needed though.

    Would you consider yourself experienced with VoxelSniper? Why? - I'm not at all experienced with VoxelSniper. I've watched a video about its basics, but other than that I'm clueless. I'm fast to learn though!

    How active would you be on Brawl's Build Team? (A couple hours per week, one hour per day, etc.) - My play time on school days is 4 hours and 9 hours on Saturday and Sunday. I'm willing to use all of my playtime to do Build Team related errands if needed.

    Why do you want to join Brawl's Build Team? - I'm very passionate about Brawl and I wish to help it in every way possible. Being a Builder would fullfill this desire and I'd have a chance to build in a team with other skilled builders. That's all.

    What would you consider your greatest strength with building? (Detailing, Terraforming, Houses, Trees, Statues, etc.) - Detailing, organics (excluding statues) and unusual structures (such as easter eggs, shoes, guns, whatever). Those listed are my excelences, but I'm "just" good at standard stuff like houses, vehicles, terraforming etc.

    What would you consider your greatest weakness with building? (Detailing, Terraforming, Houses, Trees, Statues, etc.) - Statues and medieval houses. I'm also bad at starting to build projects by myself; I'm more of a guy who improves others' builds and does what is told to. I might also get stuck on detailing and that could get frustrating when working on a bigger project. Though I do understand that Brawl's builds do not have the same standards as a personal build that can be worked on as long as one wants to.

    List any previous experience you have with building -
    I started to build late 2016 on MCBuild. Since then I've worked on my skill and aided and joined some official projects. Here's some of them:
    * GoToBed's build competition (1st place) [Unofficial] [Solo]
    * Needed Builds thread [Official] [Solo] https://www.brawl.com/threads/60553/ (page 2 and 3)
    * Build Competition "Winter is Coming" (2nd place)[Official] [Solo] https://www.brawl.com/threads/63805/
    * WarZ Militia Camp [Official] [Team] https://www.brawl.com/threads/64948/ (ID for staff)
    * KitPvP map [Official] [Team] https://www.brawl.com/threads/64347/ (ID for staff)
    * KitPvP FFA Arena https://www.brawl.com/threads/66341/ [Official] [Team] (ID for staff)
    * Build Competition III "Spring" (Working progress) [Official] [Duo] https://www.brawl.com/threads/66304/

    Pictures: (Include as many pictures of your builds as you can. If you do not include pictures, your application will be automatically denied. When possible, include proof that the builds are your own.)

    Note: I had some serious issues with my parents and my laptop and the story is too long to tell, so the pictures are in a weird order (might be some missing too). I really suggest you go check the maps yourself (IDs will be posted later). Also the Militia Camp pictures are showing the terrain mostly, even though I worked the most on the camp itself too.

    Thanks guys. I have a few other "big" builds to show I really can be dedicated to one big project (one of Rhoske's reasonings for big builds), but the build itself doesn't look too pretty.
    Thanks Trogs! I hope some other staff members can shed a little light too on how much I've actually worked on stuff already. Better to hear it from staff than randy Lekosa1. @DeCasperr @Sn4x5

    Personally I don't think you're ready, but here is the catch pal. I don't think you're ready till you show 'the big guns' what I mean by that a project you've worked months on hand for. That is what sells true skill in my opinion. Your map should take up the whole map, and if you have side details like those you've shown I don't think you're entirely ready friend. -1 from me, if you show me these great magnificent builds I might change it to +1. Just please try it, building is a art make mistakes go and reach for the stars com padre!

    Definitely +1 although builder tag will look ugly on you.

    Hey leko, I’m afraid it’s bad news :frowning: You’re super active, helpful and mature but we think that your builds fall just short of Build Team standards. I mentioned in a message to you a short while ago that you should work on making something more original, and something big, and we don’t think you’ve done that. There’s lots of nice small builds here, but nothing that makes us say “wow, this is amazing”.

    This is a fairly nebulous concept so let me give you some advice on what you can do to make absolutely certain your next application is accepted (1 month from now at the earliest): first, spend your time making one big project, to prove that you can persevere with one theme rather than flitting from one to the next. And second, choose an adventurous theme – don’t just use the classic grass/wood/stone block palette, or similar building clichés. One thing I like to recommend to people is to make a CTF map – they’re big, they can be literally any theme and they teach you to build with restrictions.

    Thanks for applying, we’d love to see you try again next month. Feel free to shoot me or the other Builders a message if you’ve got any issue. :smile:
