MaxJ2001 for mason [CANCELLED]

Post by MaxJ2001 »

So, Someone told me builders could apply for mason. Since I build a lot of things (well according to CrimsonTensai).

I'm sorry but I don't know how to upload pictures from Minecraft. I'm currently working on adding detail to my current buildings.

Since I don't know how to upload pictures, the entrance to my base's coordinates are as follows:
(In world builder_vet_flat)

x -886
y 65
z -861

Tell me what ya think!

Peace!

Hey Max,

Screenshots can be taken with the default client by pressing F2. You can then upload them to any popular image hosting services - for example http://imgur.com/.

Your chances of becoming a mason without a good image portfolio or the willingness to learn how to build one are very slim...

on top, is a bat habitat(although no bats inside)

Here's a few things all in one, including some houses, a gold tower, a drop through water/lava, and some sports courts in the background. You can also see a roller coaster.
Image
The basketball and tennis courts are here. Also you can see a small tower with ice and lava.
Image
The football field:
Image
Here is 2 things. My spleef "arena" and my "twin tower" sort of thing. On the top left is a small PVP-like minigame where the goal is to knock the other person off.
Image
And last but not least, my statue.
Image
Subject to build more.
peace!

If you're applying for mason, why are you discrediting yourself with a signature that, at the time of writing this, says "~Worst builder ever!~"? As for the images, they wont load for me some reason so I can't offer any advice atm.

Oh, I did that a few weeks ago because I thought my builds sucked compared to Xb0x4dm's Titanic...
Oh well, sorry to hear that. Although you could use go on builder_vet_flat the coords in the OP if you want.

I fixed the pictures for you by adding "l" (That is to say, Lower case L) to the end of your URLs to convert them to "Large Thumbnail" type.

Oh, Thanks Ollie. :)
P.S. It's ok if builders can't apply, because I'm a vet now so nothin to worry about :)

I honestly think it's not Mason material. It looks as though you could just type /c, change a few blocks, and call it good. Also most the things in the picture have little or no describtion. I suggest building larger structures and making them less cubed. Good luck on your application, though. :D

Thanks Cole, but you're right. I honestly don't think there's that much of a chance that i'll be promoted...
Also, stay tuned for my newest build - the Lapis Cafe!

Here's what I did from hardest to easiest:

You shouldn't have that attitude. Yes, your builds may be small and cuboid but there is always a chance in the future.

The key is- listen to people's advice! Learn how to build better! Practice! Trust me, many people start at your level but end up being great. Keep at it man, do your best to improve. :D :cow:

You're not getting Mason because you have no confidence.

I haven't seen a single person here say your builds suck. They are just offering criticism. Experiment a little. Don't be afraid to step outside the box. Mix it up a bit and focus on detail.

Also, change your crappy texture pack.

You're right Ark, I agree...
But may I ask, how is my texture pack crappy?

Simple texture packs rock, photorealistic texture packs suck. One thing I cannot hold against this guy! :-P

Seriously... A pyrimad?
That's the kind of thing that will barely get you builder. It's not original or describtive.
Also don't just use the same block for the whole build. Use different colors and textures. Like what Ark said, step outside the box and go beyond your building limits. Er, I mean go beyond your skill level. That's how you get better.
Good luck on your application :sheep:

Hello there MaxJ2001. Firstly, I am glad you are applying for mason which can be a difficult and a long task. My main suggestion is to look at the applications of people who are already mason to get an idea of what we are looking for. Think creatively and try to create some interesting shapes, even without the use of commands. I wish you the best of luck; don't give up!
