[450k Giveaway] I'm Leaving

  1. It's all resolved now, seeya around everyone!


    Skip to the line below if you only care about the money.

    Letting everyone access my residence at 9pm GMT, October 9th (3515 SMP2)

    So as you could guess by the title, I'm leaving.

    To be blunt, most of you probably don't care and just want 450k, but I figured I'd make a vaguely sentimental post here, if you'll forgive my cynicism. I'll start off by saying that I'm not leaving for any community influence reason, or for negativity caused by the server, it has just lost that sparkle of appeal it once held when I first joined over 1000 days ago.

    I've really enjoyed my time on EMC, and this server has been with me from the very start of my interest in Minecraft. Never have I found another server with such a compassionate community and helpful staff, and I severely doubt that I ever will. Sadly, through a combination of the loss of residences on a large project and the general stagnation of Minecraft, I drifted away, and I've decided to pack my bags for good.

    To my dismay, as much as I tried to give to the community, I fell through, and ended up biding most of my time silently building and amassing a decent sum of rupees for myself. I don't try to convince myself that giving everything away is a huge contribution to EMC, but it's the best I can do for you all.

    To those few people who've given me the honor of their friendship, I'd like to give a big thank you, whether you've been with me the whole way or just nipped in to help on some of my attempted projects. Chances are that I'll never play Minecraft again, so I'll see you all at my res for the last time in a few days.

    Note - Sorry if this makes no sense at all, it's 4:30AM

    "C'mon sideshow, you've had your rant, how do I get teh monies?!?!1/1!"

    Simple, I'm not gonna get you to ask anything, answer anything, compliment me or anything silly like that! Just comment a number between 1-100 and I'll list your name in the spoiler below. On October the 9th, at 9PM GMT I will use an online random number generator to choose the winners, who I will group message and send the money to.

    Yes, I said winners. The prizes are as follows:

    1st number picked - 250k
    2nd number picked - 125k
    3rd number picked - 75k

    Please check the spoiler before commenting a number, chances are if you comment a taken number I won't tell you that you have, unless it is my fault in some way.

    Assuming you've read this far, I'm also going to be giving full perms to everyone (at the same time as I do the giveaway draw) on my remaining residences (3515), where you can get assorted items including but not limited to;

    - An entire DC of Iron Blocks
    - Copious amounts of stone
    - Copious amounts of enchanted bows
    - Some random diamond items
    - 2 DCs of wool in random colours
    - And more!1!!1111!

    Edit = Anyone who turns up on the 9th will get a free sideshowallie head!

  2. Wish you luck in the future and sad to see you go :( 55 please
  3. 28 please. I hope you enjoy life and I also hope you can come back and visit sometime. :)
  4. 8 is the number i choose, wow you've been a member of emc for 1000 days, i have been for about 800-900 days some time through there and I'm the most unknown I'd bet... Still how did you loose your residences?
  5. 17 please. Its always sad to see members leave. :(
  6. 89 please, sad to see you go :(
  7. Thanks guys.

    Well my non-supporter friend went inactive for a while, and whether through other players paying the fee to clear residences or some sort of automatic clear, a discouragingly large amount of work was lost.
  8. Sad to see you go :(
    But it's good to see you enjoyed your stay ( beside you can NEVER really leave EMC ;) ).
    Hope you come back someday and have fun again by playing minecraft.
    I myself have also lost a lot of interest in MC generally, but I try to stay on the forums and vote, but school and stuff is stealing my time :)
    Number 26 please :D
  9. 48 Please. Did you know i'm also doing my prize draw on the 10th? Hope you have good luck in the future, the community will always be here if you ever come back :)
  10. Another one? Farewell, wise one...geez I only have 200 days .-.
    WHY DO YOU ALWAYS STEAL MY NUMBER ULTIMAXX
    29

  12. 13 please. And to fix the spoiler, click "edit" and select/highlight the spoiler. In the top left of the text edit menu bar thing, there's an eraser. Click it. It should be fixed.

    I'm not 100% sure though.
