Oh, and tell me how the application requirements said 50+ posts, and Lord_Saurian only has 13, but he made it. Enforcing requirements, I see.

I'm curious as well. Obviously it was a biased choice. But oh well


Yeah. I had one of the strongest applications, as compared to the applicants who made it:
Synthic: I can help with ideas for events and contests.
Corvus: I come up with some pretty insane ideas, and at least 87% are good.
Lord_Saurian: I'm a creative, well-balanced, calm person that has helped many people with many servers during my time here in EgN

Me: I used to play on a MC server as head admin, and I would run an event every week that used no plugin whatsoever - I would build an intricate arena, set up redstone so I could see who wins, and they were almost always successful. + I come up with a lot of creative ideas for events that aren't just the usual team deathmatch contest.

Clearly there was some other factor that was personal that prevented me from becoming a member of the team.


We don't have a minecraft server anymore? So yours is kinda redundant.


That doesn't mean I can't organize events for other games, my point is that I'm good at creating events in general.

Yes it was biased, due the fact that Wartheft knows Lord_Saurian in real life and knows how creative he can be. If you have a problem instead of posting in the thread talk to either Wartheft or me. Thanks.

Well these things usually fall in favour of friends, even though we're clearly as qualified if not more than some who got in.

Even though I didn't make it, I feel No Pain due to the fact that Bias's were made, I feel a bias is something you are going to see through out life and it doesn't matter if you feel you had the better Application, Think of a Job interview, The employer is going to choose you if you are liked and get along with employee's and do decent work, but if you don't like your boss and your a super hard worker but don't get along with anyone isn't going to get hired because he doesn't get along with anyone.

I Don't care I didn't make it because i still have awesome friend's in EgN and I feel that is the most important thing.

If you're so qualified how come you left?

If this has anything to do with the previous events team, well it's because I wasn't nearly as active on the past servers as I used to. I did my part helping organize lots of events. Time had come for me to go. If you're talking about me leaving the clan, that's rather irrelevant at this point

Have you heard of nepotism?
Just because he's his friend doesn't mean he can skip the requirements and put into the events team. That's bullshit.

1) It's my choice who gets on the Events Team
2) I'm only friends with 2 out of the 6 who are on the team. Thank you very much.
3) There are always exception
4) Stop bitching, what's done is done.

There will always be another chance. I don't see the need in getting so worked up over this. Good analogy by the way.

To those wondering about the selections:

We chose people based on their ability to be creative, work as a team, and whether or not we can personally get along with them or not. If you want to be completely technical, not everything on the application mattered. As with most applications for anything, the application may be used as a basis for certain things, but for the most part it was to see who was serious about wanting to join the events team. April and I looked at each of the applicants personally rather than what they typed out on the application.

Also, regarding to Saurian, yes, I know him personally. And yes, it may have been biased that he was put on the events team. But at the same time, back when Gambino was running the events team and we put applications up for that, Xanatos and I were two of the selected. Now, is it not biased that Xanatos and I were friends with Gambino, so by the natural way things works, Xanatos and I had a much better chance of joining? So if you think that's unfair bias, you should go ahead and leave the clan. Because how do we accept recruits? Bias. We vote on them with our bias views. Which is the entire point of voting. To see who we like and dislike, and that in itself is a biased view.

By the way, it was April and my choice, primary April's. April is not friends with most of the people that joined. If you have a problem with her choices, that's cool. Have a problem with it. But remember, you're not the advisor, and you're not the leader of the event's team.
