Hello! I have just made a prison server with an awesome guy named Tauryuu, and we are opening it for soft launch! This is not like your normal iConomy, mine for freedom, god-complex guard server. What I did was take things that I did not like from regular prison servers, changed them, and added a bit of my own ideas. Please note that this is just one of many survival worlds on the server.
I am currently not going to back this project any more as it has strayed a bit too far from my original premise. There are several issues I have with the prison, and I would rather personally pull out than force others to change their ideal prison server. The server can stay up as long as Tauryuu wants it to; it has always been his and I am fine with that. As I've always said, anyone is free to use this or any other of my ideas for servers. I am, and will always remain, open to experiencing Minecraft in new and creative ways.
I am now switching focus to another favorite idea of mine: Vietnam.
I am looking for a server host so if you are available, or know someone who is available please help me start this!
Features
-Many roomy prisoner cells each containing the basics.
-Animals abound. How you and your fellow prisoners use them is up to you.
-Tree grove.
-Large, realistic mine. You're able to find all ores.
-"Cafeteria" where you can get a food item or two per day.
-Prison dump where you can donate or find useful items. It will be updated by admins as seen fit so check back regularly.
-Soccer field (non-usable, sorry :biggrin.gif:)
-Some hidden easter eggs
-For the guards: guard towers, armory, and tunnels connecting them.
On the less physical side:
-Multiple ways to escape. These either require intuition, effort, or a combination of the two. This is the main goal of this server. There are currently three ways, and I will be adding more as I think of them.
-As much realism as possible.
-Fair guards. I will try my very best to pick and train guards that will be fair, non-sadistic, and do their job well.
-Very few plugins that you usually find in prison servers. No iConomy, Lockette, etc.
-You own your own cell.
Rules:
-Common sense.
-If you can't do something in a normal prison, you can't do it in here. That means: no 1 x 1 towers to escape (that takes no effort), no killing your fellow prisoners without consequence.
-No destruction/griefing of the environment. Don't be a weirdo and go around collecting every single torch just because you can.
-If you find a non-obvious way of escape, DO NOT tell the other prisoners.
-Do not spam chat, or be a troll, or be weird.
-Go to your cell at night time. This is for realism purposes. You can use this time to craft or get to know your prisoners better. Any prisoner caught out after night will be killed by the guards.
-If you kill a guard, you will lose every item in your chest and will be watched closely.
-DO NOT enter into a guard area. This rule is worthy of a ban on spot if you are found in a guard area.
-Bans may be in order for people who continually disregard rules.
-Follow rules in-game too. Listen to the admins and go with the flow.
Other Important Items:
-We're looking for mature, ambitious, active players. If you're going to log in for only 30 minutes a day, then you will lose your cell to a more active player.
-Good, well-behaved prisoners may receive rewards from the guards. Some of these rewards may help you escape. Good behavior can pay off in the long run.
-Guards can only kill prisoners if: 1. They are in an unauthorized area. 2. They are attempting to escape. 3. They have killed a prisoner or guard. 4. They are threatening the guard with a visible item.
-Prisoners can attempt to steal from other prisoners, but if caught, you will lose everything.
-Think of this as an experiment. We want to see how well the prisoners and guards will do in a prison environment. Will you share? Will you work together to escape? Will you squeal on your other prisoner for rewards? Will you mis-manage the farms?
Interested?
Great! Fill out this quick interview app and we will get back to you. Professional, well-wrtiten apps have a good chance of becoming guard. Badly written apps may not be accepted. A badly written app doesn't answer questions, has very short responses, is confusing, and does not give off a good impression of you.

I would like to come on and test things as a prisoner.
IGN: Crono30067
Tell me about yourself: Hi there. In the past I have managed both a freebuild and survival server. The survival server is currently on hiatus as we change things, and I'm looking for a few things to do and get ideas from. I'd like to come on and help with whatever I can, whether it be testing or anything of the like. I am not applying for guard or any other position, I'd just like to be a prisoner if that is alright. I'm a very rational person and I won't freak out at anyone. I try and solve problems with as much thinking as possible. Unlike most of the minecraft community, I use correct grammar and punctuation when chatting, constantly.
Age: 15
What are you looking forward to doing in this server: Hopefully I can play around and make some friends. I like the customizable cell aspect, many other servers do not have that. I'd also like very much to have a prison server without as many crazy people as the typical one has. From your description it seems like this would be the place.
What can you do at night time: We are supposed to go to our cells and get to know our fellow prisoners better or craft things.
Can you kill a guard:Yes, however if you do you lose all the items in your chest and are punished. And if we continuously do it, we will be banned.
Where would be a good place to get random items: The prison junkyard.
Are you more into solo or group work: I'd rather work with a group, so long as that group is reasonable.
Do you think you can escape: Probably, but I'm not going to try because I want to stay in the prison.
Is it okay to destroy random blocks to escape: No. We're supposed to find more creative ways to escape.
What are the five best qualities for a guard: Someone who is non-sadistic, mature, intelligent, rational, and good at PvP.
How often will you play on this server: I will definitely play at least two hours on average per day.
Last but not least, here are some pictures of my recent builds:
IGN: alkaro Tell me about yourself: Well, I'm 15 years old and I live in Canada, I'm currently learning abit about coding and stuff. :tongue.gif:
What are you looking forward to doing in this server: I'm looking forward to meeting some new people and going on a vanilla prison server...and escaping.
What can you do at night time: Conspire with other prisoners and you know. Craft, Sleep, other minecraft stuff.
Can you kill a guard: I could...But I choose not to.
Where would be a good place to get random items: The prison dump.
Are you more into solo or group work: A bit of both. But most of the time I enjoy working with others.
Do you think you can escape: What do you mean can? I will escape. :ohmy.gif:
Is it okay to destroy random blocks to escape: No. (This is included in the no griefing of the environment right?)
What are the five best qualities for a guard: Hard worker, dedicated, mature - no OMGIMOAR1337DENU, Fair, nice.
How often will you play on this server: I'll be on everyday. :biggrin.gif:
Sorry about the confusion. Tauryuu is doing the whitelist additions since it is his server. We are very close to opening it up (within a few minutes) so I'll post the IP and you can try to join if he decided to add you.
Tell me about yourself: My name is Austin. I live in the Untied States. I love to play Minecraft.
Age: 15
What are you looking forward to doing in this server: I am looking foward to being a nice player who is smart, whitty to avoid the guards, and a useful asset to other players in aiding there escape.

Can you kill a guard: Yes i can kill a guard, get the items they drop, and use them to defend myself if anyone else has seen me escape.
Where would be a good place to get random items: In hidden chests in the mines, or others giving me items for escape.
Are you more into solo or group work: I am a solo guy but I will do group work to help others.
Do you think you can escape: Yes of course I think I can escape from a few guards.
Is it okay to destroy random blocks to escape: No, because then players would just mine through the walls and get out very easliy without any thought involved.
What are the five best qualities for a guard: Watchful eyes, readieness, bravery, willing, and cunning.
How often will you play on this server: I will play on this server everyday for as long as I can.

Age:14 What are you looking forward to doing in this server: Being in a prison. I have never played in a prison server before, it sounds really fun.
