Why are you interested in joining this server?: 
Just want to find a reasonable redstone creative server! All other ones Ive checked out have very limited possibilities and older Minecraft versions (I have seen 1.2 servers!). This server provides a large area for me to experiment in and a very friendly staff welcome; assistance at any point in time. I can offer just a good company to someone and help, of course, if they need any.
Current Redstone knowledge: 
I would consider myself and advanced user. I know how to build and operate logic gates, as well as use them to my advantage in redstone. My redstone contraptions are usually kept at a compact size. I can create piston doors, security systems (involving a 9-digit keypad) and more! Redstone clocks in my builds usually involve hopper clocks. I am familiar with the "redstone tick" concept and that different pulse lenghts matter, when it comes to modules such as the T-Flip-Flop and other timing-based circuits.
Past Redstone Experience: 
My first redstone contraption i built was a 2-by-2 sliding door, now that was really not compact and involved many non-efficient redstone. It worked using redstone torches, pressure plates, an OR gate and really no form of timing at all. I decided to move on to something more complicated (just about when slime blocks came back) and created a flying machine using pistons and redstone blocks, by then I had learned how to use delays and wider varieties of redstone components. The flying machines worked simply, creating a piston pushing the structure forward, retracting that piston, retracting the retractor piston as the next cycle starts. After my short time of experimenting I was able to learn piston rolling tapes which worked by using piston timing and pulse lengths. Then I built my first 3-by-3 piston door! It worked using a double piston extender, but with a twist, it had to hold an extra block to be put in the door. That was challenging for me because I did not know much about timing, but it ended up alright in the end.
About how often do you play Minecraft?: 
1-5 hours per day
Application status: 
Approved
What kind of creations would you like to build on this server?: 
Anything, really. I am firstly going to build a shelter for myself, I guess an underground base involving piston doors and security combination locks. I might also look into building and experimenting in this server, learning here and there sometimes.
