    Hi ECC, I'd like to announce my fourth weekly giveaway contest here on the forums! How it works is each week I'll be holding a new giveaway with 3 winners. After a month of successful giveaways, I'd like to celebrate with a huge raise in the prize pool! This week's prizes are now the following;

    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
    1st Place Winner: 55,000$ (Winner Xx5mikexX)
    2nd Place Winner: 30,000$ (Winner anvildash)
    3rd Place Winner: 15,000$ (Winner Vintage_Gamer)
    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Winners are selected and announced on Sunday, so make sure to have your applications in by then! If you want to be entered in the contest simply comment on this thread using the following format! You do NOT need to like this post to be entered. Keep in mind, winners are not chosen randomly, so take your time filling out your application.

    IGN:
    Rank(s):
    Why do you think you should be chosen as a winner?:
    What do you plan on using the money/resources for?:
    Other:

    Attention! Previous Winners are aloud to apply again, but are not able to win the same place prize they've won previously. For example, if you've already won 2nd Place, you are not able to win 2nd Place again, but could win 1st or 3rd. Our previous Winners are listed below.

    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Previous 1st Place Winners:
    oreo1227, avowin, cahlawat1
    Previous 2nd Place Winners:
    Mr_Doom_Bringer, sparkleypotato2, Quieted
    Previous 3rd Place Winners:
    scepter01, voiD_yO, maco20047
    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    For those of you who would like to know how the selection works, let me explain to you! I'll be using a point system to "grade" each and every applicant. There's a maximum score of 30 Points. You'll be able to receive 15 Points for the "Why do you think you should be chosen as a winner?" question, 10 Points for the "What do you plan on using the money/resources for?" question, and 5 Points for the amount of effort put into the application (I generally want to avoid 2 word answers). Now most giveaways I have seen are usually won by staff members. I love the staff team here, and fully appreciate what they do for the server, but I don't want to always be giving prizes to staff, this giveaway is meant for the whole server. Therefore, I'll be giving staff members a bonus of 5 points. This way they receive credit for the contribution to the server without causing too much of an imbalance.


    Feedback is greatly appreciated! Feel free to give it in the "Other" section of your application of a PM! (Extra Points Maybe?) *Bonus Points* Go check out my town thread here, comment what you think of it in the thread, and get some brownie points for taking the time out of your day!

    Why do you think you should be chosen as a winner: I think I should be chosen as a winner becuase I'm very loyal and dedicated to ECC and luckily starting to make some new friends. I'm very active in this server. Well, it's that I'm most active. I work for hours but at least getting some money. I'm a very honest and nice guy and I treat everyone with respect. But for now I have Little money so this would help me a lot. I try to be as nice as posible and try to help even if I don't have donation features.

    What do you plan on using the money/resources for: I will put most of it to saving for Mayor which is my top goal now and that would help because I could help people by giving them a nice place to live. And maybe donate some money to the people in need and helping ECC :) And at he same time trading and buying.

    Other: That's all so thanks for reading and I wish you the best of luck to the others!

    Why do you think you should be chosen as a winner?:
    I think I should be chosen as the winner of this competition because most people that get a lot of money just spend it all in the lottery and they lose their money so fast, I would spend it on something useful like an efficiency 7 pickaxe or a melon sword.
    What do you plan on using the money/resources for?:
    If I win, I would probably spend the money that I got on a Melon sword or an efficiency 7 pickaxe.
    Other:
    If I win this competition than I will be so much closer to my goal.

    Why should I be chosen as a winner?- I am on EcoCityCraft everyday trying to earn money for the mayor rank, I love ECC but Pumpkin farming is what I have to do to get the money, although it is not what I would like to be doing!!

    What do I plan on spending the money/resources for?-Mayor rank, and helping Builders in need of money for food/tools. I would NOT spend any of the money on the lottery or any casinos.

    Other- Thanks for reading the application I hope I have proved I am worthy of this money. :)

    Why do you think you should be chosen as a winner?: I think I deserve to win because I love ECC and everyone on it. I am a kind, witty person, and I could use some money to help save up for Teleport. I am only 20k away. The rest of the money would go towards my friends and other people in need of money. I worked hard on this application and I plan that after I get tp everyone in my town can get free tp's if they need one. You are a very nice person for doing something like this, thank you.
    What do you plan on using the money/recources for?: Giving some money to friends/Saving for TP
    Other: Thanks for making ECC fun by hosting this giveaway! :) Ps: I like the look of your town's town Hall!

    I won the 3rd place prize on last weeks giveaway, so I figured, "hey, why not try my luck again?" I don't feel i deserve the money more than anyone else, bu like I said In my application, iw would really help in my Medieval town Colhen. So far, I have probably spent close to 20k in oak logs alone, and the town is no where near being completed. I hope to have it done in a month or so, but ETA can be changed if need be.

    Rank(s): Mayor[$], Survivor

    Why do you think you should be chosen as a winner?: I am building an AWESOME medieval town named Colhen, and the materials, mainly wood (b/c there is so much needed) and wool (also b/c there is so much needed), can get really expensive when buying massive amounts! I think I'm a pretty cool dude, and I have an ECC Trade Sign Tutorial posted on the "Basic Tutorials" section of the forums. :D

    What do you plan on using the money/resources for?: I will use the money on my town, and that is it. I would like a portal and a town warp, which would allow me to sell my Medieval Pre-builts easier to sell as builders will be able to go back and forth to spawn freely and easily without having to set a home or get a TP.

    Other: I found a spawner and made a trap of it (quad cave-spider spawner). Well, I trusted the wrong person, of whom I will not name, but many know, and showed him the spawner. He used it without an issue for about a week, and one day I got extremely too comfortable and went AFK at the spawner. Well, this President(VIP) of whom I shouldn't have trusted, decided to put water above my head in a corner to trap and drown me. Well, after talking to some mods, super mods, game admins, etc, we figured some stuff out. Well, 2 AWESOME staff refunded all of my materials (2 max picks-silk and fortune-, 1 max showvel, 1 pump axe -which I use on wood and other things due to the EFF5 quality-, my armor, and my PvP sword and Spider Sword-BoA5, Knock2, Fire Aspect2, Looting3) out of their own PERSONAL storages. :) I greatly apreciate those 2, and it reminds me hat the ECC staff is always willing to help.

    Why do you think you should be chosen as a winner?:
    I won't put the money in lotto for one thing, and recently I've been trying to help people, acting as a... pillow to lay your head on, and it's always been my dream to have 500k, but not to spend it, unless it was on something for the good of my residents, and the server.
    What do you plan on using the money/resources for?:
    I will use the money to help my town in many ways, such as a farm, another town, or just so I can lower plot prices for the people in need.
    Other:
    One day I was scammed 180,000 by a President $$$$ I will not name, and I had lost my dignity and will to play on ecocitycraft due to it. I wanted to quit. It took me 2 months to get the money back, but in that time I learned about the generousity of strangers, such as eekelmo, tkick, srv12345, and other people. These people helped me get back on my feet. While I have back the 180k but not from the person, I still cannot do many things. Such as right now I'm trying to help my people in my town by making the plots cheaper, building farms and arenas, I don't have the time to make money or farm. The mods also handled it well, with them banning the user straight away, and all these people gave me money out of pure generousity, and I want to thank them for that.

    Why do you think you should be chosen as a winner?: I think that i should be chosen as the winner because I am just coming back to ecc. I really plan to stick around for another long while, and this would be an amazing kickstarter. I am very nice, and I like to help others with projects that they have, which sometimes limits my time to be farming or mining. Whether its doing ereps or tps or water placements, I try to help in every way I can. I am very active in the community in the past, and I can only imagine how active i'll be again, once i start making money. My situation now is rough, but when I get bac in game, i assure you I will be one of the most friendly, helpful players on the server. I really hope you consider how much this would mean to me. I have nothing right now, as i have been away for over 30 days. This would help me very much, and I would be super greatful for any place, if all that you can give me.
    What do you plan on using the money/resources for?: The money/resources will be used accordingly:
    -Tools for mining/farming
    -A plot in a well established town
    -Farm access so that i can make money.
    -A few ECD's for building materials, for a house.
    -The rest will be saved for future projects.
    Other:
    I am pleased to see that you read through all of this, and all that I can ask of you is that you give me a chance to win one of the prizes. Maybe i'll be seeing you in game :)

    Why do you think you should be chosen as a winner?: I think I should be chosen because I know that I will be on EcoCityCraft months from now, even years. Whenever I am on minecraft, I'm usually on ECC. Not only that, but I have also been scammed 30k, 85k, and 50k, from people who seemed trusted, considering all of them had no complaints, and one of them was a VIP donator. I have been on ECC for almost a year, and tomorrow is the day I would have had my MineCraft account for a year!

    What do you plan on using the money/resources for?: With this money, I plan on using it to buy more ECC giftcards. There is one feature that I still want that I do not have yet. I really want to be able to vanish and logblock stuff with investigator. I was recently scammed 50k for a $10 giftcard and I hope this will make up for it.

    Other: Thanks for hosting these weekly competitions. I have never seen someone give away over 100k to someone they may not even know, but because of this, thank you.

    What do you plan on using the money/resources for?: I plan to use the money to improve my town and hopefully get a town portal. And if i have a bit of money left over give it to new builders
