    Hello all,
    Just registered for the server. And whitelist is pending. I am hoping in can participate in a good server. Hopefully I can demonstrate my skills. I would love to attach photos of my creations on a previous server but I fear that I am on Thanksgiving break with family and I am away from desktop... I will add them later.

    A little about me and my experiences. I have been playing minecraft for a good year and a half now. I played single player for about a year before deciding to switch to multiplayer. I played on a british based server operated by ThethreewiseMeh but decided to leave after a rather rapid expansion of newbish users who were not very friendly.

    As far as skill sets... I consider myself quite adept at redstone, I enjoy creating machines as if it were some kinda puzzle. If you provide the redstone materials, I will build you what you need, from doorbells to reed farms to (once if figure out memory cells) tickers. I have made automated farms for just about everything that can be automated. As architectural styles go, I am experienced in Neoclassical, but since been playing Skyrim I have taken on adding nordic influiences to my buildings. I have also done Edo Period Japanese.

    As far as Player-player interactions go, I am generally easy to get along with, but I hate it when people are being childish, its actually one of the reasons I left my previous server. Also, with towns, I understand the need for there to be a power structure, but do not use this as a means to directly influience me aka power-trippin'. I was a mayor of a town of 35 people and have a good understanding of positive leadership.

    Me (IRL):
    My name is Pat
    I am 21 years of age
    I am enrolled at The University of Iowa (Maj: Integrative Physiology, min: Chemistry)
    If you really want to know more about me, just ask!

    I apologize for a rather lengthy introduction.
    but I figured its best to make a statement fresh out of the gates. :)

    We very much enjoy lengthy introductions, especially those that convey some sort of intelligence and maturity. We have a great community here and I look forward to seeing you on the inside.

    Welcome!

    Long intros = intelligent people, something we seem to be lacking at times.

    Cya on the server!

    Okay, I realize that I'm the fourth person saying this, but you know, whatever. Long introductions simply show that you are a nice, sociable person that is willing to be involved in the community--and that you're not 9.

    So welcome to Shadecrest Odessius! I'm sure you'll love it, and I'm glad that you've chosen us.

    On a seemingly unrelated note, we were recently forced to read "The Odyssey" in honors language arts, it was pure hell. You're name brought back those hellish memories. That is all, I hope you stay with this server for a very long time, it's truly the best out there! ;D

    Welcome! This an awesome server, but we've had some newbies as well, but here if someone annoys you you can just /ch ignore (username) to ignore them :D

    I rather enjoyed the lengthy introduction. The part that caught my eye was your interest in redstone. I myself am bit obsessed. I look forward to seeing your new builds on this server. I hope you enjoy yourself!

    You're right, long introductions by no means are an indication of intelligence. Probably more along the lines of long winded, but o well, not much helping me there.

    So I am guessing I should start looking at the over world map to see which town is more to my liking? I am interested to see the variety in which people came up with.

    Welcome to ShadeCrest!! We're glad to have you!

    I own a very nice peaceful town, Violation Nation (The largest plot-wise on the server currently). We'd love to have you as a new resident!

    violation nation? That sounds rather... Violating lol. I am not going to settle down and pick a town quite just yet. I have much to see and and many yet to meet. But I will certainly consider.

    once I get back on my desktop I would gladly do it. I would normally do it for free but I suppose since I am starting fresh, I won't decline your offer.
