IGN: Falconaire

Rank(s): Moderator, President, [$$$$] Donator, Survivor, and Pilot

What do you do to celebrate the holidays?: The Holidays are always my favorite time of the year; it's a time of family and togetherness. For my family, we fully embrace these principles and spend virtually the whole month of December with friends and relatives. My Grandparents usually come, we hold parties among close friends, etc. Believe it or not, Christmas day is one of the more relaxing days of December compared to others. My family distributes our presents to each other, talk, eat homey food, and so on. Throughout the day we builds our toys, set up video games, all that good stuff, together as a family. It's one of the best things to be a part of, and I love each and every minute of it.

Why do you deserve to win?: I serve the community of ECC as a Moderator, and am constantly doing my best to improve the gaming environment for all players. I actively answer questions and guide new Builders on their way in ECC. I handle Complaints in-game and out, doing my best to solve other peoples' problems.


In chat, I feel I'm a positive influence; I'm friendly and make it my priority to make others feel welcome here on the server. When I joined, I was intimidated, even afraid, of chat and the players that resided here. This accompanied me for literally months into ECC. The idea that I was not the only one who feels that way constantly haunts me; all those players who are afraid to interact and embrace the best parts about this community. It's always been my goal to help other people break out of that bubble and feel as welcomed as they truly are here at ECC.

My town Aquila is a continuous legacy that I've left behind. Even today, 15 players can always be found chatting in the chat channel. This mini community within the server is something I'm proud of to have created. I offer donation features for free to all members of the server, and I'm always there to put in a nice word of encouragement.

While I'm most known for them, I don't view my Giveaways as my most important contribution to the community, not even in the top 3. But regardless, on Christmas day I'll have given away 2.5 million ECD's to the server, and I feel that's a landmark to be proud of.

What will you do with the money?: Well, once I announce my Giveaway winners on Christmas day, I'm going to be down 1 Million ECD's, and that's a major blow to anyone on this server. If I was to win any of your prizes, I'd be able to recover a little easier from this major economic blow.

Besides yourself, who do you think should win a prize and why?: GhostMaster2, Ghost is constantly an amazing friend to all members of the community. Regardless of whether he knows you or not, Ghost is there to make you feel better about yourself, and spread that awesome humor he contains. I think he is one of the great role models of the server, and think he's worthy of a prize.



Other: Thank you Lee1104 for hosting this awesome Giveaway. I think it's amazing that you're stepping up like this and offering your money to other players in need. I hope you continue to help the community in the amazing ways you have been so far. <3

What do you do to celebrate the holidays?: I always have a small little party thing with my friends where we do presents and ugly ornament exchanges… usual holiday stuff.. Then either Christmas day or on Christmas Eve (it varies year to year), I spend time with my family. We eat a lot and then we do presents. Its nice because we don't see each other all the time so its great to be together :D.

Why do you deserve to win?: I don't feel like I deserve anything to be honest but I will tell you why I want to win. I have been on this server for over a year now. I started in very late September 2012 and have been addicted since… this was actually the first server I've ever joined. It took me quite some time to get to President rank and I have contributed to various resident and mayor funds as well. The main reason I am entering this giveaway is because I really want to finish my towns. I haven't even began to build my second town, which will be based on ancient Greece (Athens specifically) with several modern twists, and my first town is still under construction from the summer. I have a third town, a massive town dedicated to farming, that still needs to be finished. 5 more floors must be added until it will be open. At the moment, I am rather stretched financially, mainly because of all of the projects I have undertaken. More detail into what I will specifically do with the money will be given in the next question but that basically sums up why I want to win :) .


What will you do with the money?:i plan to split the money up into four parts to fund my four projects. The first part will be used to buy materials to finish up my first town. The materials are mainly for towers and shops in the city sector but materials will also be needed to build some English landmarks such as Wimbledon and Stonehenge and for prebuilt houses. The second part will be used to fund my very expensive Greek themed town. I will basically use the entire chunk of money to buy quartz blocks at the player market in spawn. This quartz will be used to build a massive Parthenon in the heart of the town. I will also need dirt to finish fixing up the griefed up landscape and making it look as natural as possible. Since I put this town in a snow biome (probably one of the dumbest things I've done since Greece is really warm and is not covered in snow :confused:), if any money is left over I will use it to pay builders to make the snow go away. The third part will simply be used to buy dirt for the farm… I have the seeds I just need like 10k worth of dirt :oops: . The forth and most important thing I will do with the money is put a lot of it aside in savings. I plan to buy portals for all of my towns and a PVP arena for my first town.

Besides yourself, who do you think should win a prize and why?: I personally feel if I had to nominate anyone I would nominate Falconaire. He does weekly giveaways and he usually gives away like 60k a week. He is a wonderful moderator and he is a very nice player.

Other: Good luck to all the other applicants. Thank you, Lee, for making this amazing giveaway possible. And lastly, I hope everyone has a lovely holiday season! :D

What do you do to celebrate the holidays?: I play/watch football/basketball. I also love to ski and spend time with family/friends.

Why do you deserve to win?: I think I should win because I believe I have been a positive member to the ECC community. Though I may not have done it as sometimes, I believe I still have. I've also always answered questions from any user who PMs me or do what I can do to answer it to the best of my ability.

What will you do with the money?: Well this giveaway ends in about 3 weeks, so I'm not sure what I will need by then. If I had to guess though, I'd say it would be something from http://www.ecocitycraft.com/forum/threads/jbukss-ecc-goals.60187/

Besides yourself, who do you think should win a prize and why?: I'd say pat2100 deserves a prize. He's always been a huge help to me, and he proved that recently. I was in a situation where I had to finish a farm in a small amount of time and couldn't do it. But then pat stepped in. He helped me finish it and we got it finished in no time. He accepted almost no compensation for helping, and he should really get this prize for this.

Other: Nope, just thanks Lee for giving me the opportunity to enter a giveaway like this!

What do you do to celebrate the holidays?: To celebrate the holidays, I spend a lot more time with my family. Not just my immediate family but also my aunties, uncles, cousins, and even distant relatives. I love doing this because I really get to see my entire family coming together and having a good time even thought this may be the 1 time we see them in a year.
To celebrate the holidays, I often do a lot more around the house (chores and such) to help out my family a little bit more. I feel this is one of the most important gifts I could possibly give to them.
Why do you deserve to win?: I feel I should win because I am frequently helping other players out. I enjoy answering anybody's question and hopefully solving their dilemma. I am also a very active member in the ECC chat and forums.
What will you do with the money?: I would use half of this money to be put directly in to my tycoon/eff 7 pick fund which I would really enjoy having. I would use the other half for giveaways to residents and builders to really help motivate them about ECC.
Besides yourself, who do you think should win a prize and why?: If I could choose anyone else, it would be Original_Jackson. Like I stated in Falconaire's giveaway, "He demonstrates the overall example of how to be an active member in the ECC society. I frequently see him helping newcomers to the server and he serves as a role model to me and also something to strive for."
Other: I really appreciate you for holding this giveaway and giving others a chance for receiving reward for their good deeds.

What do you do to celebrate the holidays?: To celebrate the holidays, I wake up and cook for my family and then get the house ready to open up presents for the lil ones and give out everyones presents and then just watch as they enjoy opening their gifts and smiling like you cant believe. Then I enjoy eating Christmas food which still feels like thansgiving food but you get gifts to go along with it. And then I just use or enjoy every gift I recieved.

Why do you deserve to win?: I feel I don't deserve to win because I am not higher than another but I would like to win to benifit my experience on ecc and my overall playing as being able to buy important things that I need or the chance to rank up and enjoy the experience of playing on this great server even more. That is why I would like to win not just to say I have alot of money but to enjoy everything this server can offer to me that on my own I wouldn't be able to buy.​

What do you do to celebrate the holidays?: I've always loved the holidays. Everyone seems nicer, the Christmas spirit glides throughout the world, affecting everyone and making the world seem like a bit nicer place to live. Even the people of Minecraft are affected, and they tend to be more nicer on the server. To celebrate this festive season I always have a smile on my face, food in my face ( I love food :3), holiday music, and me and my parents always host a Christmas party for the people in our neighborhood so they have somewhere nice and warm to relax and eat.

Why do you deserve to win?: I would say I deserve to win because I appreciate you. Not many people would give away 1k to anyone, much less 115k. I appreciate this in you and thank you for it. It really show's me how generous people can be and makes me happy to think about it.

What will you do with the money?: I will use the money to get a portal for my town. At the moment I have no portal, and the people in my town have no way to get to their house, besides setting their home there. This also means that they cannot set their home anywhere else and I really don't like this inconvenience for them. As you know a portal is 75k and this is very hard to earn all by myself.

Besides yourself, who do you think should win a prize and why?: I think my brother, Ferid_Kamoua, also deserves to win. He also lives with me and helps set up everything for the holiday season. Another person I think deserves to win this contest is Alex_Pena2011. He was my first friend on the server, ever since I was a builder. Even though he was a mayor he still decided to be friends with me, a builder, and I am very grateful for that. At the time I knew no one else except for him and my brother. He even donated to me to help me get resident.

Other: As I have said previously, thank you Lee. This donation will help many people on the server and I sincerely believe that this is very generous. Thanks for reading this, and I hope you all have a wonderful holiday and a happy new year!
