th3thrilld3m0n's Apprentice Application

Thu Feb 23, 2012 10:40 pm

I'm applying for: Apprentice

Project Name: Minecart Station and Paternoster

How do we get there?: /warp cartstation

Brief Description: a minecart station with a working elevator

Screenshots: (Optional, don't over-do it, no editing.)

Anything we might miss when we see it in game?: If the elevator is off (not moving), go into the employees only room and flick the switch. If there are no carts in the cart stack to the left of the boarding platform (the iron door surrounded by iron), go to the arrivals and add in some carts. I have not fully created the station's shell yet (this is because it was originally made for an engineering application and I do not believe in creating an architecture for engineering).

Uniqueness on our server: Does it look like something already built?
1 = Not unique, 10 = Very very unique
2


Beauty: Does it look nice to look at?
1 = Ugly, 10 = Really really beautiful
1


Execution: Is it well made, are corridors and rooms built to the correct sizing?
1 = Built by Refugees, 10 = Built by Master Craftsmen
3


Scale: The larger and more grand the build is the higher it scores.
1 = Golf-Ball Size Settlement, 10 = Entire City
2


I'm sorry but there is really nothing to mark. It's just some lazuli with minecarts and a lift.
If it was made into a properly finished building with more varying materials and the tracks did more than just leave the station and end you could get extra marks.
Yes the elevator does work well but its just a plain old elevator designed by someone else.

My note: While I can see you definitely have ability with redstone, you need to experiment and try to invent something I have never seen before and if you are making a "station" in an artistic way then try to make it look nicer.
If you are trying to develop a clever minecart system and you create something very impressive the appearance doesn't really matter so much.

Uniqueness on our server: Does it look like something already built?
1 = Not unique, 10 = Very very unique
3, it is unique but at the same time isn't. For instance, the elevator was not your idea.

Beauty: Does it look nice to look at?
1 = Ugly, 10 = Really really beautiful
4, Since the last time i saw it, you shaped up on the looks and even added some things.


Execution: Is it well made, are corridors and rooms built to the correct sizing?
1 = Built by Refugees, 10 = Built by Master Craftsmen
5, There is a working elevator mechanism, and it looks pretty good for a cart station. The garden even added a good bit of looks to it.


Scale: The larger and more grand the build is the higher it scores.
1 = Golf-Ball Size Settlement, 10 = Entire City
3

Congratulations, you earned Apprentice!

Excuse me, what was that skoch?

I dunno, maybe he updated it and asked for it to be re-reviewed?
I think we need to stop this habit of remarking work when nothing has been changed.
