Why you wish to join ONA: I would like to join ONA because I feel that I need practical experience in an war situation and ONA can more than offer this.
Where you think you will fit in best: I'm here to learn as much as possible, So for now, somewhere near the bottem. I'm sure in time the clan will find a suitable place for me.
If you were an animal... what animal would you be: I believe I would be a frog.
I, quoaz understand that if I am not actively communicating with the clan [IRC, Forum, TS, etc...] I will be removed due to inactivity.
I've decided with the influx of many new people interested in the clan to open ONA up for a short while to anyone who wishes to apply. This does not, however, guarantee entrance to the clan. Please keep in mind we are still searching for mature and serious players.

Why you wish to join ONA: I wish to join Orsa Novus Ævum to enjoy some well-organized PvP and learn clever things you guys do. I grew bored of SSP, making actual traps against players is a whole new level of this game. Every single server I tried gave me a dissapointing experience in terms of hackers/whiners/unreasonable ops, and I hope that joining ONA will change this.

A few sentences to finish it: I have now been playing Minecraft for two weeks only. I have been absolutely into Minecraft during that time (been on youtube watching Minecraft videos nearly always) and I hope that I can learn many new things by joining ONA. I also hope that my redstone and mechanism knowledge (which comes from real life electronics knowledge (sufficient for Minecraft :-) and passion for mechanisms of every kind) might be of some use to you. I know how to use the sword or the bow, not my best aspect though... I am loyal and have no problem with doing whatever I am obliged to do.
I know that the fact that I am relatively new to Minecraft and never been in a Minecraft clan before might put me in a disadvantage. I have seen though that you are open to applications and decided to give it a go :-)
Age: 13 Please do not say no because of this; hear me out. I do not want to lie as I could have easily said I was 16. I am not immature and prefer thought out solutions to problems to running around with a sword blindly and getting killed.

Where you heard of ONA: The Art of war thread
Previous Clans: None, I have not joined a combat based server yet but I have done many SSP tests.
Why you wish to join ONA: I want to join ONA because I find war a very challenging and thought provoking activity. Getting the best of your enemy through tactics rather than brute force is so much more satisfying. An army of 5 could be wiped out by one TNT. A battle can change in an instant depending on what precautions a party has made, like land-mines for instance. I believe ONA would allow me to help others bring down a common foe.
Where you think you will fit in best: Engineer or spy -- I love using tactics to beat a foe. I use resources to the best potential they have. Red stone allows me to set traps and build great siege engines with TNT. As a spy you can silently penetrate another base to steal resources and/or set a trap. The best way to win is to have the other side not know they are defeated until they find their reserves empty and get blown up on their way out. This is minecraft so you can never fully kill an enemy. They respawn and can start anew. You have to always watch them or they may make a new base and assault again. In a time of defense I am not horrible with a sword or bow.
If you were an animal... what animal would you be: Dragon - They can breathe fire and fly. Fight of Flight? They do both well as not much can catch it when it takes flight and fire is deadly enough to take down large groups.

Previous Clans: None, but, I was an administrator on the "MineCraft Lands" server before it shut down last month *sniff.* I did alot of trap making/castle building in my time there. Also, I learned all the tricks to being an efficient (not pretty) Miner/Farmer.
Why you wish to join ONA: I find that SSP Minecraft is starting to bore me and as such I really want to join a group of active people who I can do interesting things with. I've always been interested in PvP clans, but all the ones I have looked at had every single member worse tempered and crueler than the last. It seems as though your group is the active and hardcore type.
Where you think you will fit in best: Strategic building, espionage, mining (My largest strength, the world I made in SSP last month now has 48 diamond blocks and more iron / coal than is humanly possible.) I spend all my minecraft time underground and have thusly learned alot of tricks about survival underground. Also, I am at least decent at melee combat (6/10) and moderate at ranged. (3/10)
If you were an animal... what animal would you be: A CreeperMole. Because I'm always underground! :happy.gif: Also, the Creeper prefix makes it sound less... Boring. :biggrin.gif:

Oh, I see...
I'll have to dissapoint you...
It means, using your translation for 'orsa' (which is correct) : the new eternity of the beginning
which is cool too... Though a bit strange...
if you would really like it to be 'Dawn of the New Age' I would suggest a name change to:
'Orso Novum Saeculum'
Orso = the beginning
novum = new
saeculum= Age, Era, Generation
or if you want it to be the beginning of a new eternity
you just have to change it to : Orso Novum Ævum
p.s. (am i accepted?)
Novum and saeculum would both have to be Genitive, not accusitive, unless saeculum suddenly turned neuter on me, in which case it would have to be genitive instead of nomitive

I understand that the clan is angry that 'I' attacked some clan members but I do not think I was fairly judged.
First of all, you guys did not even give me a fair trial, you do not even know what happened. It was not me who attacked the clan members. My friend, who I was teaching PvP on minecraft, had came to my house whilst I was gone and had joined in to the server. He told me he did not mean to attack the clan, he said that during the battle he was just swinging where ever. I am terribly sorry for what my friend has done (and that I did not log out of my account). I would like one chance to prove myself as a loyal member to the clan. I would never purposely harm any other clan member.

Where you think you will fit in best: i could do good work in many different sections such as warrior (of all kinds), architect (creating smart sructres, hiding them and making traps) or maybe spy/intelligence gatherer. i also could do several other tasks
Do you play any of these games [Battlfield Bad Company 2, League of Legends, Pokemon]: bfbc2: Yes although my aim sucks. Pokemon: throughout my life.

Where you heard of ONA: Even before I knew about Minecraft, I heard friends talking about. I had heard mentions of "The Art of War" So I assumed they were talking of Sun Tzu's Art of War. They explained so I came and read your Art of War and I'm extremely impressed!
Previous Clans: Leigeon of War, but for the most part, just a small time clan me and a few of my friends got together. Eventually we grew to about 20 or so people so we just split teams and waged war. My side usually was victorious.
Why you wish to join ONA: I wish to join your clan because I hope to prove myself on the field of Minecraftian combat. Wether I be some grunt on the front lines, the back bone of your military, or the miner, who siphons the raw material from the earth to keep this great army going. Perhaps archery would suit me? Maybe even espionage and assassination, but I know that is too much to ask of me so soon. I've gone through my life, imagining battles and strategies, thanks to my grandfather who helped coordinate attacks in WWII against the Japanese. He gave me the drive.
Where do you think you will fit in best: Honestly, I try to be the jack of all trades because its extremely useful for the clan. Prefferably, I'm more of the espionage guy. Sneak into enemy forts, by air, sea, gorund (or under it as some cases tend to unfold) and do what ever needs to be done. And it obviously doesn't stop at forts, as you obviously know.

Where you heard of ONA: Through Etho and on PAOW, then Rawr_Dry telling me he is in ONA. (I envy him)
Previous Clans: None that are of any importance, only clan was ITPU (now disbanded) which was a small tiny PAOW server that is seriously completely gone, and now I'm in a Pixelville-only clan called Chimera. (just like ITPU but a teeny bit bigger XD and doesn't matter)
I promise and promise again (promise not swear as I am atheist) that I will keep Pixelville 100% separate from ONA. REALLY! (And I can't find a reason why it would matter enough to stop me, can you?)
To be honest, I did actually think about lying, but no, I figured that would be stupid and useless, and not to mention the chaos that would be unleashed on me when you find out about it... X( So this is the absolute truth.
If I have to leave Chimera, a Pixelville-only clan that doesn't matter, I would, but I really hope it's ok to stay...
Why you wish to join ONA: When reading your Art of War thread:
Quote from Valerius_Maximus »
Orsa Novus Aevum didn't want me to share ALL of our amazing camo technology, but I couldn't resist just giving you guys a little sample:
-pic snip-
This was designed by our amazing camo scientist, Pestilence [or Malice on these forums] for use by spies in the snow. It's got a very practical pattern on it, and works great! Skins like these greatly decrease your visibility and allow for more effective spying. Equip your spies with camo like this and you'll be sure to come out with an advantage.
(digging that up was a bit hard X.X)
To me, it implies more technology. And I want to know more. Yes I'm hungry for information (and I can make information too, I made a compact 5*6*5 rather optimized full adder. Never seen a design like that anywhere). I might start researching on skins too, but I am sure there has already been a lot of ground covered.
Where you think you will fit in best: As an engineer, building redstone things and cannons, finding ways to sabotage the enemy, etc. I have already started practicing making the traps I inventedmade with no prior knowledge of the original. Where I miss in combat experience I shall mend with a huuuge experience with redstone. I host a server for myself where I practice pretty much everything, but this month or two I've been optimizing and compacting over and over again a small corner filled with redstone stuff.
Do you play any of these games [Battlfield Bad Company 2, League of Legends, Pokemon]: I used to play Pokemon a long time ago, but I don't play any of them. If this is to ask if I have any strategical and tactical experience, all I can say is that I know a lot from reading your thread AND practicing them on PAOW. Pixelville has PVP and I am still practicing, and I find I am good at this.
If you were an animal... what animal would you be: I would be the bear.
I, tomys, do understand that if I am not actively communicating with the clan [IRC, Forum, TS, etc...] I will be removed due to inactivity.
Final Notes:
I timed myself just for fun, but I figured it might help if I tell you how much time I spent on this post: 20 minutes to revise + 40 minutes to update to context + the original 40 minutes I used to make the PM I sent you. (wow I spent 1 hour and 40 minutes writing an application!) :biggrin.gif:
Times I can be online:
After I come back from school on Monday to Friday, and Saturday and sometimes Sunday.
The last time I tried to enter ONA, after I sent you and before you replied, I had been kicked and banned by Etherimp in the IRC. I realize I had been very pushy and >.<, immature, and I just want to use this post to apologize again. I shouldn't have been like that and I'm sorry for annoying Etherimp.
I hope my post was easy to read (and hopefully even enjoyable), stood out of the other applications, and I wish to hear from you soon. Thanks

Where you heard of ONA: Even before I knew about Minecraft, I heard friends talking about. I had heard mentions of "The Art of War" So I assumed they were talking of Sun Tzu's Art of War. They explained so I came and read your Art of War and I'm extremely impressed!
Previous Clans: Leigeon of War, but for the most part, just a small time clan me and a few of my friends got together. Eventually we grew to about 20 or so people so we just split teams and waged war. My side usually was victorious.
Why you wish to join ONA: I wish to join your clan because I hope to prove myself on the field of Minecraftian combat. Wether I be some grunt on the front lines, the back bone of your military, or the miner, who siphons the raw material from the earth to keep this great army going. Perhaps archery would suit me? Maybe even espionage and assassination, but I know that is too much to ask of me so soon. I've gone through my life, imagining battles and strategies, thanks to my grandfather who helped coordinate attacks in WWII against the Japanese. He gave me the drive.
Where do you think you will fit in best: Honestly, I try to be the jack of all trades because its extremely useful for the clan. Prefferably, I'm more of the espionage guy. Sneak into enemy forts, by air, sea, gorund (or under it as some cases tend to unfold) and do what ever needs to be done. And it obviously doesn't stop at forts, as you obviously know.
Do you play any of these games [Battlfield Bad Company 2, League of Legends, Pokemon]: I occasionaly hop on a DSi and play the good ol' Diamon version of Pokemon :biggrin.gif:
If you were an animal... what animal would you be: "Bear"

If the application is closed, which I believe it is, sorry for wasting your time.

Do not discriminate me, I can control myself, so you don't have to worry about my behavior. IF I am getting out of hand when I'm in ONA, please please please tell me, every note makes me a better person, a positive feedback loop.
In Game Name: tomys (I chose this because it is the lojban equivalent to my name: "Thomas")
Where you heard of ONA: Through Etho and on PAOW, then Rawr_Dry telling me he is in ONA. (I envy him)
Previous Clans: None that are of any importance, only clan was ITPU (now disbanded) which was a small tiny PAOW server that is seriously completely gone, and now I'm in a Pixelville-only clan called Chimera. (just like ITPU but a teeny bit bigger XD and doesn't matter)
I promise and promise again (promise not swear as I am atheist) that I will keep Pixelville 100% separate from ONA. REALLY! (And I can't find a reason why it would matter enough to stop me, can you?)
To be honest, I did actually think about lying, but no, I figured that would be stupid and useless, and not to mention the chaos that would be unleashed on me when you find out about it... X( So this is the absolute truth.
If I have to leave Chimera, a Pixelville-only clan that doesn't matter, I would, but I really hope it's ok to stay...
Why you wish to join ONA: When reading your Art of War thread:
(digging that up was a bit hard X.X)
To me, it implies more technology. And I want to know more. Yes I'm hungry for information (and I can make information too, I made a compact 5*6*5 rather optimized full adder. Never seen a design like that anywhere). I might start researching on skins too, but I am sure there has already been a lot of ground covered.
Where you think you will fit in best: As an engineer, building redstone things and cannons, finding ways to sabotage the enemy, etc. I have already started practicing making the traps I
inventedmade with no prior knowledge of the original. Where I miss in combat experience I shall mend with a huuuge experience with redstone. I host a server for myself where I practice pretty much everything, but this month or two I've been optimizing and compacting over and over again a small corner filled with redstone stuff.Do you play any of these games [Battlfield Bad Company 2, League of Legends, Pokemon]: I used to play Pokemon a long time ago, but I don't play any of them. If this is to ask if I have any strategical and tactical experience, all I can say is that I know a lot from reading your thread AND practicing them on PAOW. Pixelville has PVP and I am still practicing, and I find I am good at this.
If you were an animal... what animal would you be: I would be the bear.
I, tomys, do understand that if I am not actively communicating with the clan [IRC, Forum, TS, etc...] I will be removed due to inactivity.
Final Notes:
I timed myself just for fun, but I figured it might help if I tell you how much time I spent on this post: 20 minutes to revise + 40 minutes to update to context + the original 40 minutes I used to make the PM I sent you. (wow I spent 1 hour and 40 minutes writing an application!) :biggrin.gif:
Times I can be online:
After I come back from school on Monday to Friday, and Saturday and sometimes Sunday.
The last time I tried to enter ONA, after I sent you and before you replied, I had been kicked and banned by Etherimp in the IRC. I realize I had been very pushy and >.<, immature, and I just want to use this post to apologize again. I shouldn't have been like that and I'm sorry for annoying Etherimp.
I hope my post was easy to read (and hopefully even enjoyable), stood out of the other applications, and I wish to hear from you soon. Thanks
