Why are you interested in joining this server?:
I want to join this server for a couple of reasons.
First off, I love Redstone. Redstone is really fun.
It would also be a really good learning experience for me; I don't exactly know everything there is to know about Redstone, though I do get the basics and most of everything else. This would really help me learn basic Binary/Boolean skills as well.
It also gives me a good community to show my work to. All my other friends just don't like Redstone, and will have nothing to do with it if I try to show them my newest creation.
Past Redstone Experience:
I've always considered myself pretty good at Redstone, but now that I see some of the things on the server I'm just kind of flabbergasted. I hope to learn more here. My "best" Redstone creation is probably a game I made0 I called it something like "Platinum Box". Probably only took me 2-3 hours at most, but it took a lot of thinking and was a big earning experience for me, Redstone-wise. It basically was a 3x3 Lamp screen, and wherever you stepped it showed on the screen. Then Player-2 could roughly track your movements, and try to fire arrows at you with a push of the button, though they have to jump back and forth between blocks to get to the buttons. If they fall, you win. If you die, they win. The creation I'm most proud of, though, is a "Player Detector". It's what really got me into Redstone. Basically, A Pressure Plate would trigger a dispenser, which would shoot a block and hit a pane of glass, and fall onto the pressure plate again. If the block disappeared, it would send a pulse to the dispenser again and shoot another block. I could hide this behind a Painting, (I know, so original) and whenever a person walked by the painting, they would pick up the block, triggering the dispenser. Then you could hook up whatever to the pulse, so that if triggered it would shoot them or something. It wasn't much,but it took around an hour and a half of trial & error.
