Why should you win one of the giveaways: I have been saving up for mayor and my business at the same time and if I win that e
will help me and my business even more.
What have you did to positively affect ECC: I have been giving builder loans and helping them get to the resident rank and selling super nice houses to them for a good price or on a payment plan.
What will you do with the money: I will get mayor so I can start making nice prebuilt homes and sell them at my town and some of the money will go to my business too.
Who else should win this beside yourself and why: I think pabloandleroy should win instead of me. Why is because that he really wants to get president so me and him can make so
super nice prebuilts in his town.
Other: I did this whole thing on my iPod

Why should you win the giweaway?:
I do not feel as though I am any more inclined or or qualified to win this giveaway more than anyone else on this amazing server. Everyone deserves a fair and equal chance at winning. I will admit, that I do in fact think (correction: know) there are people out there who deserve this more than myself, but I will give it a shot. If I don't apply, I won't have any chances at winning, so, here I am.

What have you done to positively affect ECC?:
I try my best to be a help in chat on a daily basis. whether it's builders asking for assistance, or higher ranks asking for advice. I have come to realize that over my short time of 8 months on this amazing server that I have acquired more information and knowledge than I sometimes give myself credit. I try my best to help pass this knowledge around the server, to make other people more aware of server tip, tricks, or basic help. I am friendly to new users, because I was a builder once. I know how it feels to be ignored, mocked, and hung out to dry, and I wouldn't want any other member t witness this (however, I know its inevitable, this will happen anyways, though I will try to reduce the number as best I can). I try my best to be a positive role model for younger, less experienced players on the server, for I know in some instances the [President][VIP] beside my name leads people to believe I'vebeen here a while and know what I'm talking about. I use this to my advantage when talking to new users and giving them a hand. We are all a big family here, so why not act like one?

What will you do with the money?
If I win this giveaway, whether first, or last, or in between, all the money will go towards my Easter Chest Hunt, with over $100,000 in prizes. I currently have $50,000 saved up, but I will need lots more to make this an event to remember. My plans are to blow everyone out of the water with this, as it is the first event I will be physically able to follow through with, thanks to the help of some friends. I will be hosting it in my Medieval Nation of Asterion, which I am frantically working on to finish the walls by the event (pain in the arse, might I add). There's nothing I can really say about what I will do with it, other than turn right around and give it back to more members of the community.

Who else should win this besides yourself and why?:
Chundi_Jr. - I met Chundi when building my spawn statue. I noticed I kept getting diamonds, nether stars, and mysterious other items while flying around building, things I wasn't using to build. Well after about 30 minutes, I saw this properly dresses mermaid of a builder hopping around, awaiting the completion of my statue. She stuck around for quite some time over the course of 2 days, constantly checking on the status of my statue. when she asked me to play SG with her, I couldn't help but say yes, after all the time she had committed to watching me build. After talking to her for quite some time and playing SG with her for a while, I offered to pay her the remaining $13,000 she needed to get Resident. When I payed her, I got the same $13,000 back in a matter of seconds...she wouldn't take it. I was both impressed and hurt ("Wow, this is the first builder to ever decline me paying the entirety/majority of Resident" -and- "Wow, I can't believe she won't take my money"). Turns out, she was able to get Resident in a matter of days, all on her own. When she became a Resident, I showed her my town, and again, she stuck around to watch me build. After numerous requests to help me build, and many hours, I decided to give her a free home of her choice in my town (the very first person to own a home in my town before sales are even open). When I logged in today, she told me she had a present for me. Honestly, I didn't think it would be much, but turns out, she bought me a horse. This Resident, with the little money she had, manage to go out and buy ME a horse. I couldn't believe it. I have never met a NEW player this generous and happy to just be around and be a acquaintance to someone. I am glad to say that I just made a new friend, and I do indeed feel that Chundi deserves some prize for her generosity.

 

LOL, it was still pretty epic. Good luck Maco!

 

Hey Falconaire should i make an application? :3

Why should you win the giweaway?: I don't believe that I deserve to win this giveaway any more than the other users that have applied. I can easily say that I have done some good things on this server, but I do not rise above what some others have done on the server.
What have you done to positively affect ecc?: I have given builders a head start with their lives on ECC by giving them homes. I have also given them access to farms and mines, as well as help them earn money. I have educated many users on how to do specific things. I recall donating quite a bit of my money to certain fundraisers on the server in the past.
What will you do with the money? If I win the money from the giveaway, I plan to use it to rebuild my town, CoalCity. I would like to rebuild it and make it look amazing. The town will be open to all members of the server. The goal of CoalCity will be to get new players a head start on the server, give them a way to earn more money, to have players become better friends, host special events which will give out prizes (an example is the spleef arena we have), make some awesome builds, and to have fun.
Who else should win this besides yourself and why?: I believe Maco20047 should win the giveaway. It seems that he has done many positive things for the server, as well as the fact that he is trying to get the money for what seems to be a good cause :). It seems that, like me, he would help the community with his winnings, which is why I believe he should win the giveaway.

Why should you win the giweaway?: I know I'm not entitled to the prize money, but I do feel I need it. I'd like to get back on my feet, and this money would definitely help me do so.
What have you done to positively affect ecc?: Now that I'm back on ECC, I'm surrounded by better friends. It's been hard for me to do much, since I don't have any money, but I do give Builders a fair chance by giving those who try hard free plots in my town. With more money, I intend to donate to dedicated Builders, start a bigger and better town for those in need, and be a better friend. :)
What will you do with the money?: I intend to buy a town and start a bigger town meant for Builders and Residents, but all in need will be welcome.
Who else should win this besides yourself and why?: rainbowmaster12 and Androo84 , both of whom have been nothing but kind to not only me, but everyone.

Why should you win the giweaway?: Because I would use this money towards another Star Tool, so it could be used to rent out towards other users who are less unfortunate to not afford one.
What have you done to positively affect ecc?: I have been nice person & helped many people since joining back.
What will you do with the money? Save this money to buy a Star Tool.
Who else should win this besides yourself and why?: amzy29 should win this. Not because he's my friend, but he's a nice player that's willing to help many others through his journey of ECC.

 

What Apple said :p

 

In Game Name: Revanrose6
Why should you win the giveaway?: Well, I feel that will be answered in the next question, so, N/A.
What have you done to positively affect ecc?: Well, I feel that would be a long list. I've been staff for a year. I've seen, aided, and even caused many changes on ECC. I have made sure to be here for every player I can. My goal on ECC, beyond my personal goals, is always to make sure the server runs smoothly. This server is like a family. Although the family may fight, dispute, etc, I always want to be able to be here to help pick up the pieces.
What will you do with the money?: I would like to win due to my continual need of money for projects/goals/etc. I'm currently planning to work on a very large project that will require quite a bit of money.
Who else should win this besides yourself and why?: Core_Diver. He is, without a doubt, the best friend I have ever had. He is here for me and the players/staff. He is overall a great guy and if anyone deserves it, it is him.

 

In Game Name: Thecreator767

Why should you win the giveaway?: I have positively impacted ECC for the two years that I have been on the game. If anybody has any questions they need answered, I can usually answer them via global chat and I try to help out builders who PM me by referring them to the awesome 5k bonus page and giving them some tips to succeed on the game.

What have you done to positively affect ecc?: I have helped out everybody from builders to mayors with my past experiences in certain markets.

What will you do with the money? Honestly, I don't know. Money is versatile so I can use it on pretty much anything. I hope to get a Melon Sword to make the most out of summer on ECC :) Also, I plan on leaving a positive legacy on the game.

Who else should win this besides yourself and why?: KMaxwell She is a former moderator and has put a lot into ECC. Her programs have helped many people in-game and her efforts have made the server a better place :)

Why should you win the giweaway?: So that I can continue to expand on what good or services I can offer ECC as a whole. My E-Repair services, or in finding and hiring new Minions that my shop will remained stocked and ensure those starting out have work to do and earn decent money for it. I want to revamp my town of Thessalon so that I can offer plots to Builders and Residents, as it will allow the farm access and a large enough plot to get started.

What have you done to positively affect ecc?: My old Freecycle (www.tinyurl.com/ECCFreecycle) program ran for ages, until the enchanting changes, and I did try a job service for a while, where those looking for work could register with me, and those seeking workers could come to me for a match. It was hard to maintain, given time zones and whatever, but it was worthwhile, and might be worth a try.

I have also tracked my shop profits, maintained a market report for prices (that is getting a revamp now that the market has changed) along with a return of my own shop reporting as part of that. Being able to see what a shop can make in a day, week or month can help others be inspired to do the same for themselves, and the economy is a big part of what ECC is about... commerce and community. I also have a hobby in designing marketplace shops, and there are several already built in the new marketplace that I created, or helped create. It's increased my confidence as a builder, and to try and make something both beautiful and functional, unique to the shop owner.

I was a member of staff for well over a year (and promoted to SuperMod after the first month) where I gave the bulk of my time to the community no matter what else I was doing, and I tried to make sure I was kind and helpful to all to the best of my abilities.

What will you do with the money?: I will resume buying materials from the Minions I have hired, and also continue on my path to the rank of EcoMaster. I hope to set an example of what you can earn when you put your mind to it, no matter how long it takes.

Who else should win this besides yourself and why?: o_Hades_o for his efforts in combining and then selling my stash of enchanted tools. clou44 for her cheerfulness and creativity, and I have very much enjoyed her friendship since our first encounters in Awesometopia.

Why should you win the giveaway?: I have lost tens of thousands of dollars of equipment and can recover because I am not able to upload screenshot proof due to security programs I have. I am developing my first town with my friend in this town I have given many builders jobs and will eventually give them homes and a positive influence as well to benefit and build on the economy. I regularly help people with questions they have and I have always paid back what was accidentally paid me (thousands). I am a great positive influence and with money I can help even more people.

Submissions were closed a few days ago. :p At least I think they did? o.o

 

No, Apple has been continuously extending the deadline. Actual deadline is the day after tomorrow, original deadline was 4/1/14.

Why should you win the giveaway?: My goal on ECC is to create a huge farm nation and use the profits from said farm to help players, builders, residents, tycoons, whatever they be, with their own goals on ECC. I would use the from the giveaway to help fund my town farm and to buy resident for two builders in my town.
What have you done to positively affect ecc?: I offer advice to builders when they ask in global, and do free tp's if somebody asks "where is the portal to 'townname' and I know where the town is". I offer free apartments to builders with farm perms. When I offer ingame help to anyone, I usually pm them to make the advice more personal, and if I can't answer their question I either pm them the link to the ecc wiki or the minecraft wiki, whichever is more applicable.
What will you do with the money?: If I won the money, I would use it to buy two builders resident and to fund construction of my original farming town. I probably would hire needy, in this context I mean needy financially not high-maintenance, workers to construct my farm. The remainder of the money would go to building a larger housing unit for builders.
Who else should win this besides yourself and why?: There are a couple people who I would also nominate for this giveaway
@icestyle He was an immense help to me as a builder and is one of the reasons I stayed permanently on this server. He introduced the idea of trust amongst other players on the server, as I had yet to play Minecraft online and had only bought the PC version a few days earlier.
@blackbelt4eva I believe he should also get the money. I believe he is worthy of the honor because he consistently loans me his melon sword and trusts me completely with it.

 

In Game Name: EnderArcher6400
Why should you win the giveaway?: I have always helped builders, residents, and even above with help about anything they needed.
What have you done to positively affect ecc?: I have helped many builders and residents by explaining rules and/or how to get ranks. Also, I always try to give builders in need a boost with money if they ask.
What will you do with the money? I will be building a pumpkin farm that will help builders get their resident rank and residents get mayor etc.
Who else should win this besides yourself and why?: Kalvb123 definitely deserves a prize because he has always been the person I look up to and he helped me out when I was a builder. Fallenstar222 deserves a prize because she introduced me to ECC and actually gave me one of her houses when I joined. I can't think of the full name, but DBme... also deserves a prize for being a great friend and buddy in SG.
