    Rank(s): Resident, $
    Why do you think you should be chosen as a winner?: Well... I am only a Resident right now, and i am nowhere neat getting mayor. Which is not a priority for me at all at the moment. Even though i have been on the server since about febuary, i have never had over 20k in my balance. I have spent 20+ hours pumpkin farming, and haven't gotten more then 5k after every harvest i always end up giving it away to my friends or some random builder every once in a while. Or used the money on buildings, tools, erepairs, and water and lava placements.I'm not saying this just to get the prize or anything, I wouldn't mind getting the prize money, but i don't necessarily need it.

    It would be great to have the money to invest it in my farm. And it would be the first thing i have won since, well, since ever. But I also think you should at least consider my application because I am not one to beg for money when I need it. I try to earn it, but I end up giving it to someone who needs it less then i do. And that is just because i can't help it.
    What do you plan on using the money/resources for?: I should probably say that i will use the money to save up for mayor, but it will most likely go into building a private farm to continue making money and extending the farm and after i have a large enough farm then i would start saving for mayor. And after that continue making money with that same farm and sell the town i would have with mayor.
    Other: I would just want to add that even if I don't get the money, it is always nice to participate. And I know my applitcation is not the best, there are much better ones like blowtube123's and donkey5k's, but I hope you still take me into consideration. And good luck to everyone else.:)

    Rank(s): Mayor | Moderator | Donator
    Why do you think you should be chosen as a winner?:
    I should be chosen as a winner for several reasons. But lets go one by one. First, I'm busy with my moderating life so I don't have much leisure time to earn ECD. I used to be able to spend countless hours on farming without disturbance. Now I have less time to farm due to me constantly checking the forums/handling ban appeals+contracts and I have the setback of having to moderate while I farm. This lowers my efficiency and greatly reduces my ability to make quick money. Next, I'm a friendly person with a kind heart. I truly seek into looking at everyone not on the outside but who they truly are. My intentions are always for the best and hopefully you can look at me, how I look at others. Finally, I am apart of your lovely, well-designed, unique, authentic, amazing town. I haven't commented on your thread but I guess being apart of it counts right? So some delicious brownie points wouldn't hurt.


    What do you plan on using the money/resources for?:
    1) Fly donation feature: This one is mainly because most staff members have fly and I don't want to be left out :(. This would also allow me to earn more ECD and someday I might be able to give back some of my cash to the community like you have.

    2) President/New Town:I have a large project I plan on completing and I need massive funds for it. These few ECD would allow me to make my dream come to reality. What I plan on making is a secretand so I can't reveal it yet. I know how much you put into your town so I'll be looking to do the same with a future town of myself.

    3) Melon Sword: I'll take the melon sword and put it to good use. This little tool will help me quickly accumulate fast ecodollars and would allow me to fulfill my moderation duties without having to worry about making money, develop my new town and give back some ecodollars to ECC.


    Other:
    Not sure where you got all this money but I'm glad you're contributing back to ECC by handing over some of your hard-earned $$$. You are the representation of ECC, the leader of good will and a generous person in general. Thanks for doing this!

    Rank(s): Resident
    Why do you think you should be chosen as a winner?: Because I've been scammed 325k now. The last one being 200k from a donation scammer :(. (I have proof if you don't believe me)
    What do you plan on using the money/resources for?: To purchase donation feature (this time from a very trusted person/mod). Also, My friend and I just bought a town together but we need some starting money to get it up and running.
    Other: Like i said I've been scammed multiple times for a large sum. I have never and never will scam anybody on the server. Ive been playing on the server for long enough to know what NOT to spend an investment on such as lotto. I will NOT play lotto with this money. Lotto is the easiest way to go broke and get in debt. I will not use this donation to waste. I play on using it to its full use. If i do purchase a donation feature with it I will use that feature to help other players :). Thank you

    Rank(s): Builder :(
    Why do you think you should be chosen as a winner?: I think I should be chosen as a winner because im planning on getting richer and better in this server,e.g I would like to buy myself a new rank,unlike other people who are already rich,my balance now stands on 5k and I really need to get myself a Resident and a Mayor rank,because the Builder rank is too limited.
    What do you plan on using the money/resources for?: Im planning to pay for new ranks + buying myself a decent house.
    Other: Its good to have people doing giveaways without thinking on their own benefits,Well done.

    Rank(s):

    ~President, Pilot

    Why do you think you should be chosen as a winner?:

    I think I could be chosen as a winner because I'm always helping out the community with very small deeds. I sell plots, give advice, help others, but yet I do not want the responsibilities of moderator so here I am just a regular player trying to help. Well the thing with trying to help is that I'm not able to make much money because I'm always either helping or building stuff for my stuff such as public farms or just placing water for them. I sadly do not have many residents, so I treat them like gold. Even though they are treated like gold doesn't mean they are actually gold though. So I do what I can in my town such as my very small town shop or just giving my residents items such as cobble or wood.

    Helping out on ecc isn't an easy thing to do, but it's something that everyone can do. I try because I can, and if I can, I will. If you don't try you will never succeed, and that is why I am hoping this will be my success. I was also scammed 180,000 a while back but as of now that is just a blur in the past because many of my old friends helped me get back on my feet, but even though I'm on my feet doesn't mean that I'm standing up. I'm crouching now, just helping those who ask.

    (P.S. If anyone who reads this needs help just pm me in-game :happy:

    What do you plan on using the money/resources for?:
    #1: Tycoon
    Even though this is one of the less likely things that would happen, it might. This rank would increase my publicity and therefore allow more people to seek me out and join my town or ask for help. It is one of the less likely things, but it could happen. This would also help me in the long run with people giving me offers for trades and such, and more people would know my name.

    #2: Donation Features

    This is the most likely one to happen, as it would help me gain even more money by getting the right donation features, or it will help me with my town as I will be able to do things for my residents such as place lava or repair tools. The features I plan on getting are: Pyro, Pyro+, Extcommands+. Though that might not be the final choice, it most likely is.

    #3: Saving it up
    This is also a likely choice as if I save this I can be ready for anything that happens in my town such as a farm griefing so I can get everything replanted quickly, or just if one of my residents gets major griefed but just not enough for a rollback. As well this could be preparing for anything such as prices changing or someone having a bunch of highly sought after items such as nstars going on sale (though I probably wouldn't buy, as I never really cared for nstars but eff7 tools would help me alot in the progression of my town).

    Other:
    Thanks for making this giveaway, and I wish good luck to my other competitors. Also, if anyone ever needs help in-game just find me and ask away. See you there! As well good luck to blowtube123, who had an outstanding application and I wish him and many other great applications simply, Good Luck. ~12345shane

    Why do you think you should be chosen as a winner?: A group of friends and I have a town named HeavenFalls, this town is a 100% non profit town so we make no money from it, so it would be nice to be able to narrow down the money that we lose.
    What do you plan on using the money/resources for?: I will use this money to fund Project HeavenFalls, a group of friends and I work very hard on this and we greatly appreciate donations of any kind.
    Other: Thank you for giving users this opportunity.

    Why do you think you should be chosen as a winner?: The reason that I think I should be chosen is that I love ECC and I dedicate me time into it. I really like to play and I am coming near the end of my ECC career. It is really fun to play and I think its really cool that falconaire is able to do this and let people on ECC get a chance to get some cool stuff.
    What do you plan on using the money/resources for?: Well the main thing that I would do if I earned/got this money, I would probably play lotto and have some fun, another thing that I might do is buy some donations or buy things that I really like. I might put it towards "Project HeavenFalls" with my friends and my brother. Plus if this is a "donation" towards HeavenFalls, then we sometimes build a nice home for the player who donated. I think that it would be really cool to get some money and do what I want with it. I would like to say good luck to all!

    Winners have been announced!

    1st Place: blowtube123 Congratz :)
    Your application was absolutely amazing, and what topped it off is how awesome of a player you are in-game. I've watched you help multiple players, and it is really something that I love to watch. In addition, one thing that most others don't do was that Blowtube contacted me in-game and talked to me. You're simply an awesome guy, and I happily present you with 1st Place.

    2nd Place: scottmichaelj Congratz :)
    Your application was one of the best I've ever seen (possibly the best tbh), and I want to reward you for all the time you put into it. A person who shows so much dedication in something is someone I would like to support. Therefore, I present you with 2nd Place.

    3rd Place: AlphaTimer Congratz :)
    3rd Place is always my hardest pick, this week especially by far the most so. So many of these applicants really did deserve to win, but I decided that AlphaTimer should win. The effort put into your application was admirable, and I've seen/heard plenty of you in-game. Someone who dedicates so much of the their time to the server through staff always holds high respect with me. Therefore, I'd like to present you with 3rd Place.

    Congratulations to the winners once again! Please contact me in-game to receive your prizes. Next week's giveaway will be announced today! So if you weren't selected this time, be sure to apply there!
