I am looking for someone to host the clan server. If you are able to host a 24/7 dedicated server, please comment below.
The Institute of Building and DesignIf you want more information about the clan than what is listed below, please PM me (TheRealMint).
IBD was inspired by the AoB Clan and its amazing builders. We hope that we will eventually become allies instead of enemies of AoB. We are centered around sharing building techniques in the
Research Forums and hosting Building Week, as explained below. By becoming a member, you can get lots of tips from other members, an office in the headquarters (still under construction), and your very own
@ibdclan.co.cc e-mail address.
Building Week is an event hosted every year by IBD that was inspired by iEvent's
BlockoWorld, which was amazing when I attended it last year. It targets three types of players:
- Clans - Building Week is a place where clans can find new members. Clans can reserve area to build a booth that potential applicants can visit. They can also wander around, look for really good builds, and try to recruit the builders.
- Clan Applicants - If you are looking to join a clan, you can look around at the clan booths for an interesting clan. You may also make a building outside, and if it's really good, a clan might recruit you.
- Builders - Looking to become a better builder? At Building Week, you can make a building outside, and IBD members can give you tips on how to be better. There will also be displays of different building styles, both by IBD members and guest builders.
At the very end of building week, IBD members will vote on their favorite builds. At the end, the top 2-6 builds will be shown off in a tour.
We hope that many people will come to Building Week. The dates of Building Week 2011 are still to be decided.
The
Research Forums are a place where IBD members can post about their building, eventing, and scripting techniques to help other Blockland players improve their building strategies.
IBD is split up into three departments:
- Building - Members in the Building department are expected to build a lot and encouraged to post about their techniques in the Research Forums.
- Eventing - Members in the Eventing department are expected to event a lot and also encouraged to post eventing strategies/techniques in the Research Forums..
- Administration - The Administration department is a secondary department. Members who have shown exceptional ability may be able to take part in administration. One cannot apply to Administration.
Thinking about applying to IBD? If so, this is all the information you need. If you have any questions, please e-mail
admissions@ibdclan.co.cc.
For whom is IBD?IBD is for Blockland players who are exceptional builders or eventers and are willing to share their knowledge with others. You are allowed to be in both IBD and another clan. We just request that you use the IBD clan tag either before or after your name.
What are my responsibilities as a clan member?All IBD clan members are encouraged to write about their building, eventing, or scripting techniques in the
IBD Research Forums. An IBD clan member is also expected to come to all clan meetings. A PM will be sent out to all members and a topic will be posted at least a week in advance. If a member has two unexcused absences in a row, he or she will be contacted as to whether or not he or she still wants to be a part of the clan.
How do I apply?To become a student:
PM
Klutz to tell me that you would like to become a student.
To join the building or eventing department as an expert:
1. Make an application build (focusing on either building or events) to show off your ability.
2. Upload some pictures of your build in the Gallery. It would be nice but is not necessary to upload the save. After making the Gallery post, please either PM
Klutz or comment below to say that you're ready for us to look at your application.
We currently have 2 student, 1 building department, and 4 eventing department spots open.
