builder applying for apprentice

[boom777777]

I have created a pixel art where a katana is slashing through a creepers head. Pretty sweet. Its on the creative server and the coordinates are x: -9055 z:-1941 also has an explosion below it. I would appreciate the apprentice rank. Thank you. username: boom777777, applying for apprentice

Isn't he joking about this... I mean, it doesn't look as great as previous Artist applications approved.

Guys I think you are missing the point. When you build, you should build to show your skills at a certain degree. I have seen this in game and honestly it doesn't even tickle me. Even more so when I read the convo on "how easy it is to get a blah blah rank". There have been players what when built for apprentice got Architect or Engineer on their first try.

I'm not trying to bring anyone down in this, let it be known. I am just urging the applicants to try harder. There are guidelines for application too. Please be sure to read this. Earning a rank by application is one of the hardest things to do so be sure to excel at it.

And just to be fair:

Scale: 3 - It is not that big, even when you take into account its components linearly
Uniqueness: 4 - it is just a "boom" text and a creeper head. Creepers have been seen over and over again and simple text is just simple.
Execution: 2 - as stated before it is quite simple in structure and shape. The size is also not so great which means it's quite simple to recreate.
Beauty: 1 - It lacks beauty and creativity. I know you guys can give a lot more than just a text and a creeper head. Show other players what great builds you can make.

Total Score: 10/40

Also note Rambo this is not your application. So please let the admins rank and do our jobs.

Sure thing rav, I was just trying to help out boom since I'm his cousin's friend but I see what you mean. I will do so in the future.
