Please explain why you would like to join the Server-
I have had this mod for a while, and I have been using it a lot lately, but I have no one else to play this mod with. So earlier today I have been looking for a server with this mod, and this one looked the best.
.
Please explain how your talents, skills, experience, personality traits, and aspirations can help contribute positively to our server.
I am alright at Redstone, I have had a lot of experience with this mod, I am normally pretty humble about things, but if I get mad enough, I come to a snapping point. But it doesn't happen often. And I absolutely love to make up mini-games and mini-parkour maps!
. Please list five random facts about yourself that can help differentiate you from other players.
• I know a fair amount of German, still learning!
I am a 14 year old girl
When I am bored, I like to go outside and shoot some BB's or play fetch with my two Australian Cattle Dogs
I really don't talk much unless talked to.
I am in Minecraft Club.
I am terrified of the vacuum from Teletubbies.
I love bacon pizza.
My favorite TV show is Family Guy

To ensure you understand your rights and responsibilities on our server, please read theNovice's Creed, and write down one right or responsibility that you enjoy the most.
In short, you are a person of small power, but grand ambition, and immeasurable potential. Yet you
know you are currently a guest in a strange house, unknown by most or all its inhabitants. You are wise to proceed with caution, as your actions will be tracked, your words held against you, your every moment scrutinized. Just as you are unsure of what challenges and dangers lie ahead, so too will we be unsure of exactly what kind of person you are. After all that effort and hospitality, will you be a new good friend for us, and a noble protector to the server that is so dear to us? Or will you be seduced by the dark arts of griefery, and betray our trust in the most callous manner possible? .
And finally, to confirm that you read the Big Sister Server Quick Guide please write down the name of the official server currency.
Cheese!
Hope you are able to add me to the white-list Looking forward to it!

Um... hello.... >.>
Okay, straight off the bat, you're not getting a whitelist right away because your app has quite a few major issues. They are listed thusly...
Formatting. It's absolutely all over the place; and while it looks like you tried to have each question framed uniquely to differentiate them from your answers, it also looks like you failed and gave up half-way. That is very lazy, and this affects the readability and likability of the application -- and if you're not able to keep the formatting under control, then you're better off submitting a plain-text response.
.
.
Rage. You're openly admitting that you can turn into a She-Hulk whenever something makes you mad (like what, this app review?), and that seems a coercive way to make people be nice to you out of fear of invoking your wrath. The last person to try that kind of emotional terrorism, and to me no less, wound up banned and forgotten. So to recap, I don't want to hear "it doesn't happen often", I want to hear "it doesn't happen EVER".
Bear in mind that if you want to join, you're going to be sharing the server with LOTS of other people with different interests, beliefs and conceptions of "fun" with you -- you will get builders, you will get PvPers, you will get trolls, and you will get whiners; you will get pacifists and belligerents, boys and girls, children and adults, people who curse on occasion, or who mutter the occasional size-changing innuendo. What you won't get very often is violence, rage or anything intended to disrupt the peace, so if you're not willing to temper that, this probably may not be the place for you.
.
.
Reason for joining. You allude to saying that out of all the gulliver servers you've seen, we look like the best one. We need to know how, why? If you're only coming on because you're bored or because you have no other choice, you may not stay for more than the time needed to log in, look around, log out and never come back. I don't want whitelist filler, so give me some indication that there is something actually compelling about us that makes you want to join.
.
.
Rights and Responsibilities. You didn't list a single one, rather you took the introductory paragraph and pasted it on here. If the formatting didn't paint you as lazy enough, this just takes the cake... all you had to do is flip to page 2 or 3 of the creed, and pick out a single one-line sentence from all the rights and responsibilities listed. The fact you didn't demonstrates to me you didn't bother to even skim through the document.
.
================
And that's pretty much the worst of it. Now on the upside, you did guess Cheese correctly and you did list some very compelling and interesting facts about you. But even these aren't enough to stem the tide woefully against you, and as much as I would love another player, the application as it stands now is inadequate, and I can't muster any faith that you'll have any interest in fixing it.
Maybe you can prove me wrong, and it'd be great if you could, but you have a lot of work to do if that's the case.
I've only recently gotten back into minecraft, and the Gullivers mod was the very first actual mod I had interact with. I figure this would be a good place to start over.
I was a very active farmer the last time I was on a server,
I am a active reader. I grew up watching animes and cartoons, never knowing the difference
With good behavior, you have the right to onetime introductory bread and cheese
Okay then, I will just politely ask that you please completely disregard my previous app, because I just realized how half assed it is(the miracle of sleep
1. My minecraft name is skirata555
2. My previous experience with the Gulliver mod was the yogscast mod review of it. I mean that this was the very first game changing mod that i had come across. The day i finally installed it was an incredible experience for me. Its also one of the few things I can do without my little brother bothering me.
3. I enjoy doing stuff for people. I'm more of an errand boy than a builder. I just like helping... Yeah, that's all I can think of at the moment. As long as it doesn't involve a lot of redstone, I'll do my best.
4. Random facts... hurray
I love to swim.
I tend to apologize a lot. And I mean a LOT.
Ever since I was a little kid, I have watched toonami religiously. It was more of the idea that cartoons could be so much more than comedy. But then Avatar the Last Airbender. Still my favorite American show.
I am one month away from my Eagle Scout ceremony. Eagle Scout is like the top rank in boy scouts and is a huge thing when it comes to colleges.
My best friend since kindergarten has had purple hair since the day we met, and enjoys sitting on my roof, playing her accordion.
I am an honorary member of the 101st Airborne Division.
5. "And by extension, once you have enough experience, please be willing to assist new Novice players, or younger players, in acquainting them to the server, their rights, and their responsibilities." Like I think I mentioned before, I excel when helping others. 6. CHEESE!
I mean Rupees?

Hey there. ^^
Wow! I was just about to chide you today, and then I see this night-and-day improvement from your original application. Granted the original would have been passable back in the old days when we were still synced with our parent server, but nowadays would have garnered you a verbal thrashing.
But no more, the new app is so much better, it's delightful just to hover my cursor over it. In any event, let's take a deep dive... ^^
Question #1: Okay, although I originally read the user name as "skirt". :3
Question #2: You do provide an interesting narrative about your history with the Gulliver mod, and yes I do remember the Yogscast video on it (weren't there two in fact?). Granted there is very little to nothing about our server itself -- a common problem affecting 8 out of 10 applications these days.
Question #3: Okay, well we can definitely use a good errand boy or two.
The biggest "simple initiative" I have for people to work on is the extensive network of [gravel] roads connecting (or that will connect) the major towns and cities on the server. If you've checked out our dynmap, you know what I'm talking about....
You can use these for very adventurous errand runs, and even help build those that are incomplete or non-existent given it requires more courage than building prowess.
Question #4: oh lol, an apologizer. How cute. XD
Yes, it's much more fun to read about your childhood memories with Toonami (I do remember that a bit), than it is reading a simple note that "I grew up watching cartoons", so thank you so much for sharing. That in combination with the other fascinating tidbits helps form a much clearer picture of who we're letting into our server.
Oh and we do have at least one military vet on our server, so you two could probably swap stories if he is around while you are.
Question #5: Ah, you're the first person to quote this particular item from the Novice's creed, thank you. It is interesting to note that in your semi-awake state you chose an inherently selfish righ, but when lucid you reverted to your honorary boy scout self. Hope this won't reflect itself in-game a la Dr. Jeckyll and Mr. Hyde.
Question #6: No, most certainly cheese.
Rupees were the server currency on Dravics' old server... which we do host the map files of, btw, and rupees are indeed one of its regional currencies, but they've certainly made way to the wonders of cheese [and Blue Cheese].
===================
Alright, that was a fun wild ride!
You are pretty much whitelist material as it stands, though I still feel compelled to ask why you picked us over other gulliver servers. This is mainly for "quality and training purposes" if you will -- if we're doing something right to attract good quality players, we want to know about it so we could do "more" of it.
Once you get back to me with that information, you'll be good to go. ^^

Thank you for getting back to me so soon. I originally was really interested in the main server run by gunia, but at the time, I had no clue how it worked. Jump ahead a few years to now, I found that the server is no longer up. After read through the posts, I found the a link here. I eventually read through the novice creed and your quick guide. Afterwards I wrote my first app which sucked, went to bed, woke up and wrote the new one. And no, the Jeckyll and Hyde is just that one time

Ah, and thank YOU for the quick turnaround -- we're all about speedy replies here (or at least try to be). ^^
Ah, Gunia's! I do miss our parent server. ^^
It's still active from time to time, but as she seems to be on vacation (or at least out of town), it's been offline for the last couple of weeks. Since Big Sister and Little Brother are hosted on a commercial Minecraft VPN, you don't have to worry about extended downtimes like that. (They do exist due to Minecraft server issues or DDOS attacks on the host, but these are rare and typically don't bring down the server more than a few minutes.)
Big Sister in fact started off as an alternate mirror (or "sister") server to Gunia's, which Cay and I gifted to the staff during one of the long outages. But due to this and that reason, we eventually became a separate, self-governing entity around 3 months later. Although we're not Gunia's (or even Dravics' for that matter), we still uphold some of the time-honored traditions from Gunia's, particularly the focus on survival and self-reliance (a bit watered down by our heavier focus on building and technology, though). ^^;
Anyway, thank you very much for reading through our material, and possibly even watching the official server video on top of that.
And thank you as well for reassuring us about the whole Jeckyll and Hyde thing -- it wasn't asked, but the fact you volunteered the information is noted with extra gusto.
You are definitely one of a kind, so welcome to the server!
1.ING: killerdud9 2. I was on your what i think was your little brother server after the gulliver server I originally played shut down and I did'nt know about the sister server and I would hear about it.

Hello Trickster,
We had quite a few applicants lately, so my staff has circulated through a whole lot of them today. I'll be handling yours tonight.
Anyway, I remember seeing your giant app, although it really wasnt giant so much as cheating and posting all the Rights you saw on the creed. You're only supposed to pick one out of all of them, so I would have chided you about that. I will still chide you anyway since your revision doesn't list a single one anymore, so be prepared for a good chiding. >XD
=============
Question #1: What a name. I may end up calling you Trixie.
Question #2: Well it doesn't have a whole lot about our server, but at least you go into a bit more detail about your interest with the gulliver mod than usual. Being giant in multiplayer is not as bad as in singleplayer, mainly because we already have housing and faciliteis that cater to giant or semi-giant players. It's still a rough life, though
Question #3: Okay, well you sound like more of a social person than a builder. That's good though,... we have lots of people here that eat, sleep and breathe social interaction and not much else, and while not useful as builders, they certainly help attract builders that otherwise wouldnt build in a lonely place.
So that's pretty useful, although bear in mind you don't have to be our personal recruiting station. Don't push anyone here, just enjoy your time on your own for a while, then once you're sure we're a good-enough place, THEN you can tell your friends about us. We want quality over quantity in our player base.
Question #4: Wow, well they're not bullet-pointed, but they are certainly good points of interest. Congratulations for getting this aspect flawless.
[and yay, soccer!] ^^
Question #5: Okay, chiding time!! XD
I know its long, but you do have to read it. It's kind of important, since you want to demonstrate you're so interested in joining our server, you'll read our official guidebook for novice players. You also want to demonstrate you read the instructions carefully, so that means picking ONE rule or responsibility and post it here as your question #5 (and not all of them, which still shows you probably didnt read the creed, or the instructions). So this omission will, unfortunately, cost you. -.-
Question #6: And you got this one, though.
=============
Well there you go. You're application overall is not bad, but you definitely messed up Question #5 royally, which is shocking considering this is one of the easiest questions to answer. Given this ties to the very backbone of our server, we're forced to stop right here and wait till you answer it correctly.
Sorry, please read the instructions for Question #5 AND the Novice's Creed, and try again.
why I want to join
2. I was on one of the gulliver servers I cant remember witch server. well after the gulliver server I originally played shut down I decided to find another gulliver server to enjoy, also the server does seem a little different in a good way compared to most servers, like more stuff to do for Ex more mini games. So I came across this so this is why I want to join your server.

Okay.
Well finally you did list a proper Responsibility, and even threw in a Right for good measure. Granted, your formatting sucks, so although you do get a whitelist, you'll probably get a nice big konk on the noggin for that when I see you.

scrutinized. Just as you are unsure of what challenges and dangers lie ahead, so too will we be unsure of
exactly what kind of person you are. After all that effort and hospitality, will you be a new good friend for

2. My previous experience with the Gulliver mod was the yogscast mod review of it. I mean that this was the very first game changing mod that i had come across. The day i finally installed it was an incredible experience for me. Its also one of the few things I can do without my little brother bothering me.
3. I enjoy doing stuff for people. I'm more of an errand boy than a builder. I just like helping... Yeah, that's all I can think of at the moment. As long as it doesn't involve a lot of redstone, I'll do my best.
4. Random facts... hurray
I love to swim.
I tend to apologize a lot. And I mean a LOT.
Ever since I was a little kid, I have watched toonami religiously. It was more of the idea that cartoons could be so much more than comedy. But then Avatar the Last Airbender. Still my favorite American show.
I am one month away from my Eagle Scout ceremony. Eagle Scout is like the top rank in boy scouts and is a huge thing when it comes to colleges.
My best friend since kindergarten has had purple hair since the day we met, and enjoys sitting on my roof, playing her accordion.
I am an honorary member of the 101st Airborne Division.
5. "And by extension, once you have enough experience, please be willing to assist new Novice players,
or younger players, in acquainting them to the server, their rights, and their responsibilities."
Like I think I mentioned before, I excel when helping others.
6. CHEESE!
I mean Rupees?
Hey there. ^^
Wow! I was just about to chide you today, and then I see this night-and-day improvement from your original application. Granted the original would have been passable back in the old days when we were still synced with our parent server, but nowadays would have garnered you a verbal thrashing.
But no more, the new app is so much better, it's delightful just to hover my cursor over it. In any event, let's take a deep dive... ^^
Question #1: Okay, although I originally read the user name as "skirt". :3
Question #2: You do provide an interesting narrative about your history with the Gulliver mod, and yes I do remember the Yogscast video on it (weren't there two in fact?). Granted there is very little to nothing about our server itself -- a common problem affecting 8 out of 10 applications these days.
Question #3: Okay, well we can definitely use a good errand boy or two.
The biggest "simple initiative" I have for people to work on is the extensive network of [gravel] roads connecting (or that will connect) the major towns and cities on the server. If you've checked out our dynmap, you know what I'm talking about....
http://bigsister.mcserver.ws:8123/
You can use these for very adventurous errand runs, and even help build those that are incomplete or non-existent given it requires more courage than building prowess.
Question #4: oh lol, an apologizer. How cute. XD
Yes, it's much more fun to read about your childhood memories with Toonami (I do remember that a bit), than it is reading a simple note that "I grew up watching cartoons", so thank you so much for sharing. That in combination with the other fascinating tidbits helps form a much clearer picture of who we're letting into our server.
Oh and we do have at least one military vet on our server, so you two could probably swap stories if he is around while you are.
Question #5: Ah, you're the first person to quote this particular item from the Novice's creed, thank you. It is interesting to note that in your semi-awake state you chose an inherently selfish righ, but when lucid you reverted to your honorary boy scout self. Hope this won't reflect itself in-game a la Dr. Jeckyll and Mr. Hyde.
Question #6: No, most certainly cheese.
Rupees were the server currency on Dravics' old server... which we do host the map files of, btw, and rupees are indeed one of its regional currencies, but they've certainly made way to the wonders of cheese [and Blue Cheese].
===================
Alright, that was a fun wild ride!
You are pretty much whitelist material as it stands, though I still feel compelled to ask why you picked us over other gulliver servers. This is mainly for "quality and training purposes" if you will -- if we're doing something right to attract good quality players, we want to know about it so we could do "more" of it.
Once you get back to me with that information, you'll be good to go. ^^

Thank you for getting back to me so soon. I originally was really interested in the main server run by gunia, but at the time, I had no clue how it worked. Jump ahead a few years to now, I found that the server is no longer up. After read through the posts, I found the a link here. I eventually read through the novice creed and your quick guide. Afterwards I wrote my first app which sucked, went to bed, woke up and wrote the new one. And no, the Jeckyll and Hyde is just that one time
Ah, and thank YOU for the quick turnaround -- we're all about speedy replies here (or at least try to be). ^^
Ah, Gunia's! I do miss our parent server. ^^
It's still active from time to time, but as she seems to be on vacation (or at least out of town), it's been offline for the last couple of weeks. Since Big Sister and Little Brother are hosted on a commercial Minecraft VPN, you don't have to worry about extended downtimes like that. (They do exist due to Minecraft server issues or DDOS attacks on the host, but these are rare and typically don't bring down the server more than a few minutes.)
Big Sister in fact started off as an alternate mirror (or "sister") server to Gunia's, which Cay and I gifted to the staff during one of the long outages. But due to this and that reason, we eventually became a separate, self-governing entity around 3 months later. Although we're not Gunia's (or even Dravics' for that matter), we still uphold some of the time-honored traditions from Gunia's, particularly the focus on survival and self-reliance (a bit watered down by our heavier focus on building and technology, though). ^^;
Anyway, thank you very much for reading through our material, and possibly even watching the official server video on top of that.
And thank you as well for reassuring us about the whole Jeckyll and Hyde thing -- it wasn't asked, but the fact you volunteered the information is noted with extra gusto.
You are definitely one of a kind, so welcome to the server!

Hello Trickster,
We had quite a few applicants lately, so my staff has circulated through a whole lot of them today. I'll be handling yours tonight.
Anyway, I remember seeing your giant app, although it really wasnt giant so much as cheating and posting all the Rights you saw on the creed. You're only supposed to pick one out of all of them, so I would have chided you about that. I will still chide you anyway since your revision doesn't list a single one anymore, so be prepared for a good chiding. >XD
=============
Question #1: What a name. I may end up calling you Trixie.
Question #2: Well it doesn't have a whole lot about our server, but at least you go into a bit more detail about your interest with the gulliver mod than usual. Being giant in multiplayer is not as bad as in singleplayer, mainly because we already have housing and faciliteis that cater to giant or semi-giant players. It's still a rough life, though
Question #3: Okay, well you sound like more of a social person than a builder. That's good though,... we have lots of people here that eat, sleep and breathe social interaction and not much else, and while not useful as builders, they certainly help attract builders that otherwise wouldnt build in a lonely place.
So that's pretty useful, although bear in mind you don't have to be our personal recruiting station. Don't push anyone here, just enjoy your time on your own for a while, then once you're sure we're a good-enough place, THEN you can tell your friends about us. We want quality over quantity in our player base.
Question #4: Wow, well they're not bullet-pointed, but they are certainly good points of interest. Congratulations for getting this aspect flawless.
[and yay, soccer!] ^^
Question #5: Okay, chiding time!! XD
I know its long, but you do have to read it. It's kind of important, since you want to demonstrate you're so interested in joining our server, you'll read our official guidebook for novice players. You also want to demonstrate you read the instructions carefully, so that means picking ONE rule or responsibility and post it here as your question #5 (and not all of them, which still shows you probably didnt read the creed, or the instructions). So this omission will, unfortunately, cost you. -.-
Question #6: And you got this one, though.
=============
Well there you go. You're application overall is not bad, but you definitely messed up Question #5 royally, which is shocking considering this is one of the easiest questions to answer. Given this ties to the very backbone of our server, we're forced to stop right here and wait till you answer it correctly.
Sorry, please read the instructions for Question #5 AND the Novice's Creed, and try again.

Okay.
Well finally you did list a proper Responsibility, and even threw in a Right for good measure. Granted, your formatting sucks, so although you do get a whitelist, you'll probably get a nice big konk on the noggin for that when I see you.
Alrighty, welcome aboard.
