This is a novel idea. I like it much better than the 404 challenge or something similar. I'd really like to make the tree... a tree. I've seen pics of people just building large wood houses. Off to the seed generator.
Any Minecraft players play League of legends? Personally, I play LeBlanc and Xin Zhou.
If you don't Know: It's a free RTS game which prioritizes teamwork. 5v5 or 3v3 for most matches. What I like is that it doesn't give any power advantage for people who pay. Sign up is free if you'd like to give it a try.
Went to the Sky Lagoon looking to build something. After I passed all that snow to find this incredible landscape I thought. I'm going to build a temple to a greek god. So I started, but I didn't know which god I'd dedicate it to. Then a lightning bolt hit me:
Zeus
I'm going to travel around building more in cool places.

Gender (Male/Female): Male
Country of Residence: USA
Your Character's Background (Roleplaying)(5 Sent. Min.): After hearing after the outbreak, Master Lauesa (Law-E-sa) came down from the highlands, wielding his sword to deal with the menace. Rob Roy, his friend and master, had fallen as the menace spread to the Northern reaches of England. As the highlanders fell to the hoard they rose. Seeking a calmer place, Lauesa moved south to the heart of England, hoping they had found an answer to the menace. His sword and bow were strapped to his back, and on the horizon stands the castles of his long remembered foe. Now friend?
An Image of your Character (as you imagine them): A tall, muscular man. His head and mouth are covered with a black rag to prevent the smell of death. He is a quiet man with little to say with anyone, but those he trusts.
Why do you want to join OUR server? (3 Sent. Min.): I love zombie movies and games. I've played several survival servers and this one has an interesting premise. Minecraft with a hardcore idea like this seems to be truly great.

Perhaps you could denote a patrol path like the delivery man of Minecolony does. If I build a gatehouse and want the gate patrolled at night I could put a 1 on one side and a 2 on the other. He would then walk back and forth till he is challenged.

lauesa Skype?:
lauesa Tell us a little about yourself:
Working on two bachelors degrees, English and History. I'm interested in tactics, traps, warfare of the ancient world. Which basically translates to Minecraft. I'm not a grammar nazi, standardized spelling was a relatively recent invention. I want to hang out and play with friends on a game I really enjoy. Have you joined Project Art of War? If so, how long have you been a member?:
Just applied, I hope to be accepted soon. Have you been banned before?:
No Why you want to join the clan:
I like the concept of intermittent outposts aside from a main fortress that can be used to expand influence over a region. Will you establish an outpost?:
Yes, or if no more are needed I'll help maintain an outpost with someone else. If you didn't answer the above question, what can you contribute to the clan?:
What role are you planning to take on?:
Scout/Scientist
MC Handle: lauesa
Age: 21
How long have you played MC?: About a Year
What do you think of the server idea?: I like it quite a bit. I've been looking for a server with admins that don't spawn items for friends, or for themselves. (Fort Zero is for everyone and understandable.) I'd like to start on an even playing field and build up knowing someone hasn't hacked in 700 diamonds. I look forward to building and exploring with everyone.
How much time do you think you'll spend on this server?: Depends on how long it is up and the time.
Are you considering applying for the OP job?: I've not decided. If I really enjoy the server then maybe.
When you earn enough Prestige, do you pledge to not abuse your power?: Still fuzzy about the prestige aspect, but I won't abuse it.
If accepted to the server, do you pledge to not grief, steal, or commit any malice?: I'm assuming theft is permitted during war because, well, it's war. Otherwise, I have no intention of engaging in these activities at any other time.
Will you, above all else, start a faction on the server?: Yeah, I suppose I can.
With the new update, many blocks are beginning to see some use, or are having uses added. However, Gravel is really only good for flint. With the Halloween update we got slowsand (or whatever you want to call it.) which slows a person down by 30% or so. My suggestion is that the smelting of gravel creates a material that boosts speed by 30%.
+ = [Unnamed Material]
Roads made of this material would have the original intention of roads: to speed travel time. SMP towns would be able to quickly come to the aid of their neighbors, or use them for tactical advantages. This makes sense that a road would provide a faster method of transportation than simply walking across the grass.
Some will argue that mine carts provided this rapid transit, which is true; however, roads do not have the financial limitations that mine carts have, nor the complexity.

Perhaps it is a bit overpowered. I'd like to keep it the balance between the cost/speed of minecarts versus a lower cost/lower speed alternative.
Unrealistic? I've seen plenty of gravel roads. It is still faster than grass.
