    • I enjoy fishing IRL
    • I do a lot of end city raiding
    • I enjoy building (I'm probably not the best builder, but I'm pretty creative and I like designing)
    • I'm not the best at red stone, I just know the basics and if I want to build a machine I just follow a youtube tutorial

    Former Factions: PG (As you know I'm not with them anymore because they got raided and kinda fell apart as you know, lol)

    Why Join NN?

    • I am friends with GrandpaCarl and from what he tells me it seems like a pretty cool faction
    • I like being in a faction and having people to talk to
    • I enjoy raiding, even though I have barely raided anyone (possibly you guys could help with that, haha

    Why Should You Be Accepted?

    • I am quite friendly, kind and I believe it would be pleasant to have me around
    • I'd be keen to help the faction do anything (building, raiding, pvping)
    • I'm easy to please, I don't ask for much
    • I have my own end grinder and supplies, I don't really need to take anything from the faction
    • I'm not demanding - I won't ask to be promoted, I'm pretty patient and I really don't mind if I'm not promoted actually, I'm perfectly happy to wait until you fully trust me for anything

    Other: Thanks for your time :)

    Other:

    No

  4. IGN: Czechmate
    Age/Maturity: um... it's trite but true, I'm 47, going on 2. I'm mature when called upon to be so... that is to say, when I have a duty to be so. The rest of the time I'm talking about banging someone's mom.
    Discord: Czechmate#0224
    Approximate Time on CM: Been playing on the server for a little over two weeks.
    About Me: I started playing MC because I was a new father and I knew that my children were going to be playing it endlessly. As a child of a programer in the 70's I was raised to really hack something apart and understand why programs worked. I am an original nerd. From the day's of "revenge of the nerds" and "porkies".. from the original Dungeon's and Dragon's blue basic book, I've played, or watched, or read anything that I can. I was weened on first run episodes of Star Trek.
    These are of course just generalities. I am a desparately honest individual, which probably makes me a liar, but I honestly only lie where necessary to save feelings or protect the innocent. I love multiplayer games. I love the interaction; meeting new and interesting people and learning from them. I live to teach, and try my best to pass on whatever I have learned to others so that everyone can enjoy these amazing creations that we make. To this end I served as an administrator to Kirupa.com for many years, working on logic solutions and programming fixes. I quite enjoyed the work, but keeping up on Flash was a nightmare and that aspect of a program which I saw as going no where made the exercise tiresome.
    I am a husband to the love of my life... I am a father to the most interesting people I've ever come to know. Z is eight and inquisitive about minecraft but much more into research sciences like palentology. Lex is six and is a master lego builder at this point. It is astounding how OCD he is with regard to finishing a build he's started on. I work for an industrial gasses company, and quite enjoy the job and the people. I've been doing this for 22 years now.
    I'm a yankee, but with much love and sympathy for the south and the good parts of that culture, I also like the indy scene and get along well in Portland, Seatle, or New York. Honestly, I find it hard to go anywhere and not have a good time, if there are interesting people to meet and hopefuly good beer to drink. I get along pretty well with the old and young alike.
    I consider myself a jack of all trades and a master of few. I am at home working with a router and a nice block of aged oak, or putting together a red stone contraption. I cook, I clean, I pay my taxes, (even if I think it's unconstitutional to ask me to)
    Lastly just to list off a few pros and or cons
    I like to read, canoe, camp, hike, drink GOOD beer, bbq or grill, and I try not to miss 420; I am overly empathetic to others, including those who I am not. I know that doesn't make sense, but I assure you it's true.
    Minecraft is complex and there are many things which I enjoy about it. Firstly I suppose would be just exploring topside or in mines. The game generates amazing constructs, and I am endlessly facinated by the scapes I see in game. When I'm bored of that, I work on a red stone contraption to save time, or to trap enemies. To this end I rarely work in creative mode. I prefer to have both the danger of random creeper explosions, and the need to aquire resources. When that bores me, I work on beautifying my house. I would say that this later aspect is my greatest weakness. Gather materials? I'll get you boxes full.. but make a good looking rock wall in MC and it seems to elude me. Could be my work is crap, or it could be that I'm my own worst critic. My favorite work in PVP is building traps for others to stumble upon. I'm hoping to build a rep on Craftymynes for exactly that. I like to sneak.. I like to spy.. I like to build traps.
    Former Factions: No former factions, but I served as an admin for years with Casual Mature Gamers CS:Go, and left in good standing.
    Why Join NN?: There are a number of good reasons but very simply.. you have a policy of raiding without greifing, and that is one of the first time's I've seen that in a faction. I synch very closely with this type of behavior. I want competition to exist to enhance the fun and danger, but I also hate to see people utterly demolished into a pile of smoking ash and fire. Builds are a personal thing, and when someone wrecks something that you have spent blood sweat and tears to build... well I just have a really good feeling about your attitude. In addition to that, I enjoy your kind of layed back attitude about the CraftyMynes server. Some people take this waaaaaaaaaayyyyyy to seriously. I like your touring of other active builds and other old destroyed builds. That is something that enhances everyone's time on the server, and costs you time to do. I can appreciate someone who feels that something like that is important enough to document.
    Why Should I Be Accepted?: because I'll love you long time? The above speaks for itself. I will not betray someone who has put their trust in me. I am stalwart in my affiliations. I think I'd be a good fit with the other members who I've seen in your videos so far. If they are an indication of the types of players you are recruiting, then I should be a good fit. I like to build, I like to redstone, I like to collect resources, and I'm looking for a team that can help me learn the finer arts of PvP and raiding. I'm honestly not very good at killing players yet. I'm fairly good in combat in my own games and I play on hard level.
    Mostly though... it's my name. You should have me just to have a Czechmate on your side. You never know when a czechmate will come in handy. Plus there's more to the name than just the obvious and I really only discuss that with friends.
    Other:
    If you have no open slots at the moment, please feel free to keep my application on file for future use. I will probably be flying solo unless I can find another faction as good a fit as yours.

    There once was a man from Vanderloop,
    who for many months could not poop,
    I tell you no lie
    when I say he did die

    @NerdieBirdieYT Figured I'd inform you that he was the one that betrayed pizza guild and he betrayed julipukki earlier

  6. Also, the only other member that was interested in the base was 0ptimore, and in your video he tries to kill you and your teammates, also, HustL was only in our bases to see them, then he was inactive, while 0ptimore was active and adding to the bases.

  7. IGN:
    AtaraxianArchon

    Age/Maturity:
    I'm 22. Though, all my life, I have been told I'm an old soul. My immaturity extends to foul language, and not much else. My maturity extends to distances which are immeasurable, due to relative perspectives. Picture Morgan Freeman, and Johnny Depp, as one individual, if you can.

    Discord:
    Ataraxian Archon
    AtaraxianArchon#9541

    Approximate Time on CM:
    I believe I've been playing, on CraftyMynes, for about three or four months... It's difficult to say, really.

    About Me:
    I enjoy Minecraft, because it's a simplistic slow-down setting for my senses. Reality can be incredibly complex and draining, while Minecraft is more of a way to relax and think about more realistic goals and simpler interactions. But when I'm not here, I prefer to make art, or to go hiking, kayaking, cliff climbing, studying biology, philosophy, and physics, etc. I guess I'm mostly interested in adventure and discovery, in real life. Mostly, I love to ponder the deeper questions about reality and consciousness.
    In game, my interests are mainly based around building and designing things, and renovating builds, for cosmetic and functional purposes. That's also my professional job, in real life, by the way, so I guess that's a big thing for me. I love to create and generate a beneficial environment for those around me. So those are my pros... My cons, are mainly foul language, and inability to stick to one subject at a time, and other distraction associated issues.

    Former Factions:
    I was part of companionship, on CraftyMynes... But I guess we disbanded, due to lack of interest, from everyone else, after we hit 5-8ish members...
    On a server, I used to run with three lifelong friends, I was a member of The Four Horsemen.
    Their identities, if you wanna check our backgrounds:
    KizeKaze: War
    Capt_Ducky: Plague
    AtaraxianArchon (Me - Formerly ArchonOfTorment): Death
    Capt_Cool (This account was sold to a new person): Pestilence

    Why Join NN?
    I want to join NN, because the faction strength seems decent, and the people all seem chill, from what review I could accomplish, on the forums. I guess I like the idea of community, because I always play solo, now that I'm not running a server. There's no real reason to play multiplayer, if I don't interact with anyone.

    Why Should You Be Accepted?
    I've run a server, before. I've got experience in spotting people who plan on deceiving others. I like to build, and help build. I guess there's no real reason to accept my application, because you don't know me. However, you can ask around, to see if I'm trustworthy, or not.

    Other:
    Does it still count, if I add a sentence or two, with boopadoopdoop in it? Or, does it need to remain a stand-alone word?

  8. @Jimichu Thanks for applying! Do you have a screenshot from at least 1.5 months ago or can a staff member verify you have been on that long?

  9. 7 years ago

    IGN: TheSpiderman2013

    Gender: m

    Discord: scentedwaffles (#6298)

    Time on CM (ticks): +- 20 million (old server/s, so no screenshots.) grand total of 0 ticks on 1.12 or whatever update.

    About Me: Hi. I enjoy minecraft pvp and building. As mentioned in the description, I suck at redstone and building, but enjoy the latter. I am not shy, and have been described by my fellow man as "interesting". I am fairly adept at pvp, and like pizza. I am also sometimes very sarcastic, so hopefully you can get past that. I also tend to read news articles while brewing potions etc. so may be zoning out from time to ttime.

    Former Factions: bladerunners, and some sort of sheep clan cant remember. they were both building and teamwork factions, that liked making and mining stuff. I've mostly been a lone player for the most part, though I had friends at my base from time to time.

    Why Join NN?
    I'm bored, and would like to be accepted back. I've taken a break from cm for a while, and want to join back.

    Why do you want to join NN? What do you hope to achieve? There are many factions out there. Why did you choose us?

    I want to join NN because you guyhs seem like a friendly group. I've watched you personally, and it seems as though you have the best interest in mind for each of the members. I hope to be a trusted member eventually, and have fun in the process. NN seems to be full of lighthearted, easygoing people, and I wish to be a part of that.

    Why Should You Be Accepted?

    All things being equal, I really shouldn't. I tend to be looked at as a 'raider' or 'griefer' type person. I indeed have raided quite a few bases in my time, and wish to be part of a group now. I would completely understand if you reject me, as I have had a somewhat questionable past.

    Beside that, I should be accepted because I usually have a friendly demeanor, and am good with working with a team. I am generally free for at least a half hour per day, and play quite often.

    What makes you stand out from other applicants? Any particular set of skills or a certain personality? Perhaps experience? Let us know.
    I am 'famous' for being able to eat 1 kg of spaghetti in under 7 minutes.

    Tfw when you explain something over and over and people still wonder about it...

    I don't like grinding for god sets. It bores me. Yes, I have a couple pairs I could wear if I wanted. But why risk losing them to a bad fall or an elytra glitch or a random zombie swarm? I wear iron because that's easily replaceable and still keeps me alive for what I use armor for.

    I also have a ton of elytra, as I enjoy end city raiding, but you don't see me wearing those often either. Do I have enough that I could risk wearing them all the time and lose one pair? Yeah, but why would I? My iron suits me fine. If I need to fly, I'll grab an elytra, but I don't wear it everywhere.

    There are plenty of people who prefer to wear NO armor most of the time, but you don't see them being mocked. Just because I lead a faction doesn't mean I have to go about things like most people do, nor does it mean I have to do specific things to show my wealth (which I'm not interested in, anyway). NN has never been based around power or glory, it's always been about having fun and meeting new people and hopefully making the server a more enjoyable place.

    To wrap it up, you're not the first who's mocked me about it, and you won't be the last. I could care less whether you think I'm rich or not, regardless of the fact that I do own multiple god sets. Mind your own business. :P

    ... I am taking it a little bit out of context, but really? And if you have god gear, you can fall 100 blocks without dying. I have never found my elytra fail me, but just for the worst case scenario I keep my gear in my echest until I reach an end city or a raid.

  12. Given that you no longer accept applications and this is devolving to pointless bickering, I have locked the thread.
