    Hi ECC, I'd like to announce my third weekly giveaway contest here on the forums! How it works is each week I'll be holding a new giveaway with 3 winners. I increased the prize money to 50k as to make a nice and round number. This week's prizes are now the following;

    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
    1st Place Winner: 27,500$ (Won by cahlawat1)
    2nd Place Winner: 15,000$ (Won by Quieted)
    3rd Place Winner: 7,500$ + 64 diamonds + 128 Iron Ingots (Won by Maco20047)
    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    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
    Previous 2nd Place Winners:
    Mr_Doom_Bringer, sparkleypotato2
    Previous 3rd Place Winners:
    scepter01, voiD_yO
    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    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?: Well, I've been trying to help out the community in small ways such as selling plots, helping builders, etc, and in the time I've been using to help I've noticed I'm not making nearly as much money as I used to. If I want to make money it comes from stuff in my town or selling plots, which happens very rarely both ways. I just want the money to finally be happy again, and to be able to sell more plots to people in need, and to aid more builders and residents in small things such as trade signs, paying someone, etc.

    What do you plan on using the money/resources for?: I plan on using it for saving up for either buying ext+ so the residents of my town can get erepairs, as they have asked for it for a long time, or I will keep it and save it and be able to be happy while aiding people who need it.
    Other: Thanks for aiding people in a way I can't, with a large giveaway to people who deserve it.

    Why do you think you should be chosen as a winner?: I think I should be chosen as the winner for multiple reasons. I am dedicated to the server, try to help improve our community, and overall just try to make everyone's experience better. I have been playing ECC for over 1 1/2 years now. I believe I have shown the support and dedication it takes to be a true ECC member, but a lot of other people have proven themselves as well, not just me. Secondly, I always try to help our community grow together and get along. I always try to avoid situations that could take a turn for the worse ad try to change the subject, by doing this I also help improve other players experience.
    What do you plan on using the money/resources for?: I plan on using the resources for my town project. I plan to offer to cheap pre-builts to new members and try to help them start a life on ECC. I would also use some of the money to buy nether stars, but 90% would go to my town :D
    Other: Thanks for doing such a generous give away. I appreciate it and hopefully you will be a part of an awesome town project :3

    Why do you think you should be chosen as a winner?: I think that I should be chosen as the winner because I am very nice, and love to be helpful. I think I should be chosen because I have been working hard to get my new rank and to help people. I have been on this server for quite some time, and there are a lot of people that are higher rank than me that have just started out. I am not that far from president, and with my new town from president I am thinking of making a town that is based off of Animal Crossing, where you apply for a house, and it costs a certain amount for the house. when the house is payed off, you can ask for an expansion. With this new town that means more builders have a place to live, and get time to pay off their house. Or if your a richer person, you can have a house in my town so that you can see who is the richest in the town
    What do you plan on using the money/resources for?: I plan on using this money/resources for two things. One thing would be to help my Loaning business to keep going. My other reason would be to get president so that I can make my town for others.
    Other: Thank you Falconaire for me winning last time! my loaning business is doing good so far! 70k out in loans so far! and thank you for all that support me, and good luck to you all!

    Why do you think you should be chosen as a winner?: I just LOVE ecc and most everyone who plays it, and I would Really like to give some help to people in need , while at the same time save up some money myself in hopes of getting the teleport donation. I could really use a boost in my balance to help accomplish these things, and I feel that I deserve the prize, but if I do not win I will ok with that. I am a funny person, and I have a fair bit of friends on this server. I think you are a very nice person to be willing to give away money to other users, and I respect you for that. The main thing I will do when I get tp is I will use it to tp players to my town bluesville and give all plot owners in my town free tp's.
    What do you plan on using the money/resources for?: Saving for TP and give some to people in need.
    Other: Thanks for reading!

    Why do you think you should be chosen as a winner?: I run a lot of towns so I keep up with my town members as much as I can. Most times it gets overwhelming and I hardly have time to myself which is less time for me to earn money on my own. I would appreciate a donation every now and then.

    Other: I think you should give me the money... You know... Bird to bird here? (Haha see what I did there? Falcon? Cardinal?....No?.... Okay...:p)

    Why do you think you should be chosen as a winner?: I never really like these questions because, truthfully very very few of us really "Deserve" anything. Oh, I can say I'm good, I help the community, and I give away money, all of which I do, but truthfully, no one really "deserves" the money. But since your mainly looking for helpful people, I can vouch for myself, I post on the suggestions forum day in and day out, helping the community hammer out the good suggestions and avoid the bad ones.
    What do you plan on using the money/resources for?: The money will go toward a few things. One of which being 72volt's empire, my town, and a friend of mine trying to get mayor. If I get the resources, they will go to a secret goal I'm going to work toward starting next week.
    Other: If for some reason i get to the finals, I'd rather take 3rd place then 2nd or 1st. Mainly because I'd rather have the iron bars and diamonds.

    Why do you think you should be chosen as a winner?: I think I should be chosen because I am a dedicated member to the server. I am looking to buy donation features to not only help myself to be greater, but to help others who are not as privileged as I.
    What do you plan on using the money/resources for?: I am looking to buy the Teleport Feature and the MultiHome Feature. If I were to win the 3rd place prize and the gems, I would use them in my personal town.
    Other: I think it's great that a wealthier person such as yourself cares enough about the server to do weekly give-aways with a substantial prize. If I were to be picked. I promise the money will not go waste (Lotto).

    Why do you think you should be chosen as a winner?: I should be chosen as I have been on this server for a very long time. It took me nearly a year to get mayor and I didn't even get a town. I've always dreamed of having my own town and buying another town will bring one step closer to my own. I plan on being a philanthropist by helping builders get started, perhaps starting them with a free apartment or such.
    What do you plan on using the money/resources for?: I would use the money/resources to help me buy a new town. I currently have 10k saved and this would bring me closer.
    Other: It's amazing you are doing this so often. Good luck to the other people in the giveaway. It would be spectacular if you could help me.
