Currently logs sell for 4 BP each. (Unless that price was reduced, which I haven't checked in a while but it should still be the same). What I meant was reducing that figure down to 1 BP per log (as you suggested, since cobblestone sells for 1 BP each) would then require prisoners to mine/chop 15,000 blocks of wood to rank up to B, not including voter money/money from other sources. Since trees take logs take longer to break than cobblestone this would not work. Plus, I see the Stone Quarry as necessary as well - the ideal way to rank up out of C, in my opinion, would be to use the mine and gather coal/iron from it so that you can then craft iron axes, which would provide the quickest means possible (available to a C-Prisoner ordinarily) of cutting trees.
And apologies for not quoting, I haven't 100% figured out the forum's posting system since I haven't really used it in a while.
Log prices should not be reduced. That would only serve to further hinder prisoners' rank progression. As it is, ranking up to B from C is time-consuming, even with getting a free 3,000 BP per day by voting. Making logs cost the same as cobblestone would discourage Cs. After all, that would be 15,000 logs that they would have to chop in the Tree Farm (or mine if it becomes its own mine).
I can honestly, without a doubt, say that I never thought this day would come so soon. Noakii, you have been one of the single greatest Wardens Convicted has ever had by far. I am saddened by your departure, but I also know that it's for the best for you because you believe it to be so. There will never truly be another like you, Noakii. But I also know that you would want us to continue on, and to thrive as we have always done. I remember the first day I joined Convicted, and in the C Foyer was a warp to a Hunger Games match that you were hosting. Throughout my days, and before my days as well, you have always been here for us, and you have poured much of your life and your spirit into this place. Noakii, it was you who agreed with froot to promote me to Trainee and thereby help me learn and grow and become the person that I am today, and I can never truly thank you enough for that. Not many remember the person I was when I first joined the server, but as I guarded the server through my days of Trainee, Guard, and AlphaGuard I grew so much as an individual. The day I was promoted to Warden, I was so ecstatic; but I also knew that I had a long ways to go yet in continuing to develop my character and my personality. I want to thank you Noakii, for the opportunities you gave me here, and for the lessons you imparted on us all, not just me. Thank you for your days of service to Convicted Noakii, and I wish nothing but the best for you during your travels throughout life. Farewell, and best wishes!
LOL I ACTUALLY REMEMBER THIS! XD You've got a pretty old screenshot there Lava, that was taken sometime in the interim of August 13th 2012 through November 18th, 2012.
Declined, you asked in game. Also, to improve this, I would suggest putting each question on a separate line. It helps me see if this is a guard application or not, as over the first glance it didn't look like one.
To everyone currently applying: We are looking for the best of the best.
I wanna be the very best, like no one ever was!
P.S. Hai guys, not sure when computer will be fixed but I'll see what I can do about getting on, hopefully I can get on my family's computer. Some good news though - They fixed MineChat for iPhone 6 so I can use that now.
HOLY MOTHER TRUCKER COWW SHEET! UR ALPHA! Gratz hahaha!
Eating of course trying to become a sumo wrestler, and ur warden HOLY F#*&!! NICEE
SD YOOO! you got promoted to alpha finnalyy Gratzz, u should see how many burgers I kill everyday >:)) Quote from Bearnye»
Eh wot u say m8 I'll fuk u up
Mikey how u been :>>>>>>
So many promotions lol
HELLO to vipuuur and that girl noakii also
Thanks dual! While you were gone, dusty435 got Warden, and benjaminsaunders was also Warden for a little while. Aside from SDA and B0mber I'm not sure if you would know any of the other current Alphas. Froot left us in June, and Jaakey retired in January.
Here is also proof of me having no hacks I just recorded to day if that was a question
I was not able to record every time that you parkour glitched; I personally witnessed you do it 6 times, not to mention the times that others also saw you do it. It has nothing to do with your Internet connection as AZ was trying to argue last night - it is an intentional exploit, and from what I understand requires carefully-timed shifting.
Just want to clear up any confusion - on a lot of matters.
Firstly, the whole nicknames thing that was going on earlier was a troll. Therefore, SDA nor hillboy were promoted to Warden, and nor was I demoted to Alpha. We might've pushed it a little too far and actually made people think that this was real, so just making sure. <3
Nextly, for Voter Prizes. I'd like to again apologize for how long they took to get ready, but congratulations to this month's winners! They are:
shamoo14, hamann10, SKP4472, ShartsInPants, SimplyEvil, and divonte. (Divonte was included due to me being a failure once again and remembering to check the website 15 minutes after it already resets <_<).
Your Voter Prizes will be in one of your Virtual Chests. I chose which chest going in order from 1-6 (or alphabetical order if your chests were renamed without numbers), depending on where you had room. It will be in the bottom right-hand corner of your Virtual Chest. Please note that although this particular VOTM prize is not necessarily a contraband item, due to the fact that it is enchanted with Fire Aspect, Guards have the permission to call for it as a contraband item if they see that it is used during combat.
Lastly, I will be gone on vacation from the 9th-16th, so I will only be able to be on MineChat during that time. Thanks guys!
Why you deserve to be unbanned: I was not using X-ray, I was only using an X-ray texture pack so I could see places that have already been searched by other players. (They would show up as caves) When I found diamonds in two different locations near the ladders Yoda must have assumed that I was cheating.
You may not know this, but the x-ray texture pack is illegal along with the mod. So essentially yes, you were using x-ray.
Not entirely, as the server rules state that no hacked clients, it is a legit texture pack, so it could be debatable. It technically is not a hacked client, therefore not against the rules.
X-ray texture packs are against the Server Rules. The rule on mods also applies to texture packs as well in that if it gives you an unfair advantage then it is not allowed.
My opinion on this is: Nobody PVPs, so why does the amount of guards matter? If you want to guard an empty prison, who should be there to stop you? That being said, I think there should be an incentive to PVP on the server that is just slightly designed for PVP. What I propose is a system where killing a person captures 2-5% of their income, and gives it to you. I think that doing this will fix not only a broken economy, but get the prison riots looking like the old days.
That system seems very punishing to prisoners... It's already bad enough to Cs who have to be repeatedly killed by Frees whenever these "riots" occur, but to also have their BP taken from them just for being killed by an overpowered Free is just cruel and unusual, and would certainly cause many, many prisoners to quit.
In Game Name: Age: How Long Have You Been Cutting Trees?: What Experience Do You Have With Cutting Trees?: Why Are You Good For The Treenie Role?(A lot Here): Do You Understand That Asking Divonte To Be Promoted Is Not Allowed And Your Application Will Be Denied?: What Rank Are You: Do You Understand That You Will Have To Join The TreeGuards Faction?: Any Extra Information
Remember to put DIVONTE in your app or you are auto denied
In Game Name: builder1028 Age: 1000 years old How Long Have You Been Cutting Trees?: Since the May of 2012, when I was 998 years old. What Experience Do You Have With Cutting Trees?: Well, I cut oak trees and birch trees and acacia trees and jungle trees, so I'd say I have lots of experience with cutting trees. Why Are You Good For The Treenie Role?(A lot Here): Well, not to brag but I consider myself to be a master Tree-Cutter if I do say so myself. Many trees have stood in my way over the years; each of them were cut down as quickly as a hot knife slicing through butter. Additionally, one time I saw someone plant a sapling. Annoyed, they were smitten to death due to the fact that I would then be required to cut even MORE trees, on top of the trees I had yet to cut.
Also, I believe that I have a level head. Therefore, I believe that I would be a positive influence to the TreeForce. I will always treat my fellow Treenies with the utmost respect, and I, with every fiber of my being, shall try not to ever accidentally offend anyone, whether they are a fellow Treenie, higher-ranking TreeForce member, or prisoner/Free. Thank you for reviewing my Treenie application, and I hope that you enjoyed reading it! Do You Understand That Asking Divonte To Be Promoted Is Not Allowed And Your Application Will Be Denied?: Of course, master divonte, I would never ask you to promote me. What Rank Are You: I am currently a vigilante TreeCutter, but I hope to soon be a Treenie. Do You Understand That You Will Have To Join The TreeGuards Faction?: I understand completely. This way, my fellow Treenies and I shall be able to effectively communicate to each other precisely which trees must be sliced down, like a 7-year old boy with a submachine gun mowing down his opponents in Call of Duty. Any Extra Information: My role model is George Washington. He was very brave to be able to overcome the difficult challenge of chopping down a legendary cherry tree. Thank you again for reviewing my Treenie application. I hope to be joining the ranks of the TreeForce soon! :3

Heya Penguii I don't think I ever officially congratulated you, did I? It's extremely late and I apologize, but congrats!
Wait, this isn't the Krusty Krab? Oh, I must've taken a wrong turn at Albuquerque again. My mistake, shamoo.
