What time of the day would you be most available to run events? (Please specify a time zone):I live in the EST(EDT). I like to run events from 4:00 P.M-10:00 P.M on most Weekdays And from 8:00 A.M-12:00 A.M on most weekends. This varies greatly. This is merely a rough estimate of the times I can be on and running, building, or creating events.
Hours per week you play(average) AND how long have you been in Minetown: I have been on Minetown for over a year. One year and 28 days to be exact. For all the math whizzes out there that is 56 weeks, 393 days, 9432 hours. And 565,920 minutes, 33,955,200... seconds ;P
What kind of events would you specialize in?I like all types of events. From quick build events to long team puzzle events.
What are your ideas for future events?I have pleanty of ideas for events! (Some of these may be repeated from my old application) I hate making names, im getting there <object class="emojione" data="

A scavenger hunt/race/obstacle course/fishing/boat racing/marathon
-This is what I have been working on for the past few weeks, out in the middle of nowhere, underground, building platforms, mazes, everything!
Eggs - Players start with 10 chickens, and collect as many eggs as possible in a short amount of time(15-20 minutes). They also have seeds, and a deposite chest. The person with the most eggs at the end wins.
Movie Night - A movie is chosen. Players then have a set amount (2-5 hours. This could also be run as a multi-day event) of time to build a character/scene from the movie. The buildings are then judged and a winner is chosen.
Wolf Tamer - Players have unlimited bones, an Infinity bow, and unlimited golden swords. They must kill as many wolfs as possible while protecting their own dogs.
Underwater Mining - Players must mine as many ores as possible in a set time (20-30 minutes). Different types of ores are found through out the underwater abyss. There are chests with faster picks, enchanted helmets, and more through out the abyss aswell.
Parkour PvP - It seems as if it is just a normal PvP match. As players see the arena for the first time, they realize it is more than just an arena. It is a parkour map, surrounded with lava. There are many ways out. but only one can get there.
Shoot - This is my archery range. I have held many events here. Shooting at a target, moving target, and much more. I have many big plans for it's future. I hope to use some of the new redstone implemented features for it.
Auto-Event - Players must make an automatic farm using redstone for the selected crop/item. The contraptions will be judged on compactness, ease of usage, functionality, looks, and creativity.
These are just some of my ideas, I am always thinking of more amazing ideas. Infact, some of these I have thought of while writing them. <object class="emojione" data="

Have you ever participated or ran any unofficial events? Please tell us about what you did and how it went: I have participated in many unofficial events, and I have run a few myself. I have participated in almost everything, Parkour, some building, mazes. I all thought them to be well thought out, very clean and polished, fun, and overall good events. I will say my favorite unofficial event ever was Alex_Wan's maze. I came in 2nd place, I had alot of fun in it. Now for my events... (Dun laugh plz <object class="emojione" data="
https://resources.enjin.com/1489581540/themes/core/images/emojione/svg/1f61b.svg" type="image/svg+xml" standby=":p">:p</object>) As I said, I have run some quick archery events at "Shoot". I gave out some prizes, and from the feedback I got everyone had a good time. I have also done some chat trivia in the past, the first correct answer wins a diamond. It is a time passer, but everyone has fun!
Tell us about your experence with some of the mechinisms we use (WorldEdit, WorldGuard Regions, CraftBook, etc.):
WorldEdit: I know it, I've used it in some buildings in Single Player and other servers. I really enjoy it, it makes things easier, and it allows the user to have more control. Im not sure what else to say here.
WorldGuard: I really enjoy this plugin. I have used region flags, and controlling building rights with command blocks.
CraftBook: This is the one I am least experienced in. I know the basics such as auto-collecting chests (and the flags to go with it), Bridges, gates and other similar mechanisms. I am I fast learner so I hope that isn't a problem.
Why do you consider Event staff over Normal staffing?I would prefer Event staffing for many reasons. One of them is the age requirements. I am far to underage to be a normal staff member here. I am not one to argue, but if the Staff Management team wishes to judge maturity on age, that is fine with me. The second reason is that I prefer entertaining the community, rather than moderating it. I have been in the community for over a year now, and I feel me being the average player is the right place for me. I have been in the regular community for a long time, and I leef that is too long just to walk away from it. By applying for Event Staff, I am applying for a position where I work with the community more than regular staffing. Now Im going to through this in a completely different direction. Like I said before, I have been in the community for over a year. I know what the average player likes to do on a daily basis, I know the general ideas of what official events want to be added, and I feel I have that different perspective than others will.
Quick! Think outside the box! Now what? I love this question, and hate it at the same time. Most dont know what it is asking specifically, I am included in that group. But that is also the point of it. Thinking outside the box, its like going to new limits you have never been before. It is not doing what you are prepared for, and that's what happenens in life. Things dont go as planned, stuff doesnt happen, and much more! So what I am trying to get to is that you always need to be prepared, for the best or the worst, and always have a backup plan, even if it as stupid as some chat trivia.
Tell us about yourself:ME. Me, myself, and I. I think most of you know me pretty well, or atleast I hope you do. I go to our town's public school. I play in the band and in the towns soccer team. I am "building" my own computer, I have been looking at different parts for it for mny months now. I dont think I know what I'm doing at this point <object class="emojione" data="
https://resources.enjin.com/1489581540/themes/core/images/emojione/svg/1f61b.svg" type="image/svg+xml" standby=":p">:p</object>. I have been on Minetown for over a year. I have left, or alteast almost have left a few times, but you guys are my second family. I could never leave you. I have almost left for many reasons. If you want to know more about that, feel free to message me, I'd be happy to explain it to you. But enough of me ranting. I speak my mind if you havent already noticed. I dont do it often, and I try to do it in the most civilized way possible. If I dont agree with something, dont be surprised if you dont hear me say something. Umm, my sister owns a guinea pig, and I think I'm allergic to it. I have a fish, I got it as I am writing this. I've had a tough life. I've been through some experiences that I dont think many of those reading it have been through. Again, message me... I know plenty of the Vets of MT very well. I try to get in mumble as much as I can. I am trying to sound professional, but fun at the same time... And I hate applications <object class="emojione" data="

If I've missed anything, anyone who is reading this has some questions, feel free to add me on Skype: Insert0Name0Here, or Message me here on the forums. Thanks again, and best of luck to the others applying.
