Escapees of Blockland


WE ARE NOT DEAD!

Introduction

Calling all eventers, builders, and challenge-maker...people: This is a clan named Escapees of Blockland, as if you couldn't tell. This clan is meant for challenges, mainly of the escape-the-room (or house,dungeon, jail, ect.) genre. I am not looking for and incredibly highly talented builders, Just people who know the basics of wrench events and how to build without spamming. Again: This clan is not for DM's, TDM's, CTF's, KotH's, ect. Just escape games and challenges.

Clan History

This is a simple challenge clan I started on February 16, 2010. It was very popular the first few days, and then died down a bit. My fellow clan members and I have been working on fantastic builds and videos behind the scenes, inviting several of our friends to join, and overall improving the clan. We made a HQ building, space station, 'hotel' and high security jail. All of this could not have been possible if it were not for Treynolds416 and Hellriot. Thanks you guys, I couldn't have pulled this off without you! So here we are today, ready to accept new members into the clan. Go EoB!

Clan Tags

              Clan Tags are EscB and then Branch.
              Ex:  EscBTreynolds416Evt.
              Note: The Etiquette of Blockland issue has been cleared up, as Etiquette of Blockland is now dead.


Clan Branches

There are six different branches:

     1. Admissions - [Adm.]
     2. Eventing - [Evt.]
     3. Filming/Acting - [Flm.]
     4. Scripting, Mods, and Modeling - [Mod.]
     5. Building - [Bld.]
     6. Training - [Trn.]

          Each branch has one leader to specifically control that branch, called the head. A branch consists of the head and a certain number of minor players. Either you are a minor or a head, there are no different rankings other than those.

Training Branch

          - We are accepting trainees to mentor and teach how to build and event well, even possibly film or script (depending on if they are interested in either).We will accept no more than five trainees at a time, and this may change later on. They will be in the same office as their mentors until they either A) Quit or get kicked out of the clan, B) Apply to join and fail, or C) Apply and Make it in. If an apprentice applies and is approved, He will have his own office on the floor of the Branch that he applied for, and be treated as a regular member.

Blacklist

          -Blockland 101   ID:19437
               -Reason: Applied multiple times after not being accepted, acted like an idiot, and did not listen to anyone when they told him to stop.
                   -Bottom line: MORON.

          -0Blanzer0    ID: 18715
               -Reason: He came to this server, used one of his event favs instead of working on a real app that showed time and effort, tried to convince Treynolds that rapidfire wasn't a mod, then attempted to cuss him out.
                    -His clan tags read GBLD, Treynolds thinks he's an imposter.

Stealin' the EoB name :c

Wha..?

Edit: Oh ya, Etiquette of Blockland. That clan is dead, so no worries.

It was a bit of a problem at first, but their leader didn't really care as long as we changed the clan tags.

Keep your eye out for the trailer, everyone, because we should be able to start filming in a few days!

I have a reccomend for a builder, who built a fantastic mansion. Well, its not a mansion but its too big to be a house, so...

Name: Julius The 1st on IRC and on Forums, and on BL his name is a symbolitized "Julius Caesar"

Edit: Is pixel art accepted? Because i wanna app (:

It depends on how good the pixel art is... And we need to know that you have a certain amount of skill building 3D objects as well... Show us what you've got.

He was in GBLD for like a day...  He seemed professional the day he showed me the app...  but the next day.....  no.  He was kicked.

In Other news:  I'd like to app.  I have a cave challenge that never really finished cause I couldn't think of more to do...  Is it ok to app with that, and if it is, should I post here or in Gallery?

Sure, that's fine. We won't know if it's the material to get you in until we see it.

Just post it here, it will make things easier for all of us.

lol @ 1 day membership XD

Post in Gallery, put the link in here. Also, one of us will need to physically see the build and go to your server.

Also, use generic app format :

ID:
Reasons you want to join:
Branch being apped for:
Experience:
Etc.:

Edit: Okay, then do it in here XD. Unless it's too many pictures, we don't want topic flooding.

I was just on Conan's server and he says he is still applying. Hope you don't mind me putting up that picture of the space station, Treynolds.

It's cool. Anyways, I've been working on a new clan logo:


"Nothing can hold us captive..."

Tell me whatcha think.

VERY Nice, Treynolds, gold star for you! :D But seriously, that looks great. It just needs a little work around the edges of the shackles and the letters and it will be pretty much perfect. You could also add "Nobody can hold us captive" Under the two red lines in red print. This is looking way better than my original!
We don't want topic flooding.
Like with Blockland101's apps...his MANY, MANY APPS...OH, THE HORROR...

I'll just post in the gallery with a link here.  I'll post pictures tomorrow.

Sounds great.

And thanks for compliments Shard.

There you go, Trey. Saved you the time.
I made the chain look a wee bit crappy.  :panda:




EDIT:
Forget that!
I already ruined it.
I found the shackle Trey used in the picture, and cropped it. It has no bad edges or anything.
Shard, I need you to pick some colors. 2 would suffice. An outline color, and the inside color.
You can pick different colors for all 3 letters.

EDIT2:
If you pick more than 2 colors, I need you to tell me colors for everything.
E, O, B
The 2 lines below EOB
"Nothing can hold us captive..."

Outlines, and the inside. Need those colors.
