Real Name: (First) Q (Yes just like Star Trek. My parents were huge trekkies. I am not.)
IGN: (In Game Name) Pure_Riddle (Riddle is my nickname currently)
Age: 26
How Long have you been on the server: 4 Months
What position you're looking for: Helper
Why do you want to help? (use lots of info, it helps us learn who you are) This server has changed me as a person. I see that every single person on this server matters from the newest to the eldest, and sometimes we can all use assistance. I hope to be able to assist even beyond what I can do as a gym leader. On this server being a gym leader means taking on a role that requires working with everyone, but it doesn't always mean I can help everyone. There are certain capaibilities that I wish to assist with on the server. Particularly I would like to be able to help individuals that have been greifed or who are simply a bit lost in the game in general. When I am able to offer pokemon or explain things to people, I already do that. No role is needed to provide that type of assistance. I simply want to help everyone in every way. Particuarlaly I would like to reduce the lag on the server by getting rid of the apricorn farms. I hate them. They hate me, and I find them all the time. I hope that you can see why I wish to assist.
What makes you stand out?: Well first my name is one letter. Q. Like that in itself is original. Other things that make me stand out is as my actual job I am a Minecraft Instructor. Yep. It's like the greatest job ever. I recently graduated from college and now I teach students about subjects by using minecraft and mods. Specifically I specialize in tech mods like galacticraft. We use the mods to teach kids actual science and physics. I also teach reading and writing with minecraft, but I personally love to misspell things and be lazy when typing. Although I hold my students to a higher standard.
One of the other things to know about me is I can never leave something undone. When I start it I MUST FINISH IT. This is a habit I have had since I was a child, and I can start something on a whim and feel the need to HAVE to finish it. Or die. Yeah that's pretty much my only other option.
What is your time zone?: Eastern
Extra Notes: Alaskan Snoe Dragon
Day 1: I had to add extra notes. xD Because well I feel like it. First I love anime. Almost every single one I have ever started I have watched to its completion. Including the weirdest anime you will ever see called Dog and Scissors. If you are a huge anime fan you have to have Hulu because it has thousands you will have never heard of. Personally I am obsessed with OP and Naruto. And I cannot wait until Dragonball Z super. I watched every episode of DBZ and Dragonball when they first came out and I cannot wait for more. If you ever want to talk about anime give me a shoutout and we can talk. My skin in the game is also Piccolo its pretty awesome. Piccolo in pokemon would have been boss.
Just going to keep adding more stuff about myself, because who doesn't love talking about themselves?
Day 2: My favorite pokemon is Smeargle. He's absolutely rubbish but he looks like he could make you laugh and be sneaky at the same time. Sometimes I feel like that too xD. Guess thats a bit of a personal reflection? I also enjoy cooking and the most recent dish I attempted to make were egg rolls. They weren't the best but we learn from every attempt we make. Just like we do in gym battles. Well isn't that philosophical.
Day 3: Some more cool facts of the day. My favorite ice pokemon is Delibird, although silly he can be awesome. I also love the original pokemon series more than any of the others, and this includes the original movie.
Pokemon was perhaps the first anime I was ever interested in and that introduced me to Dragonball Z. I will always be grateful for Pokemon.
Day 4: I am also an avid reader. I love to read, my favorite book series is Harry Potter. If you are interested in an adult fantasy series that is awesome you should read the Night Angel Series. It is epic. I really do think ice pokemon are like assassins they blend with the snow and strike in your moment of weakness.
Day 5: The first book I ever read was the Foot Book by Dr. Suess. I'll never forget it because it started me down the path of reading. Now I look back and wonder if Dr. Suess was alright when he wrote his books. Cause that stuff is crazy! Especially the colors.
Day 6: My favorite movie is Gone in 60 Seconds I own it on VHS and DVD. xD Love that car!
Day 7: I am a Dr. Who fanatic. I loved the 11th doctor and was sad to see him go. I have watched every episode including classic Who at least once. I am currently watching the most recent season that has been added to Netflix and I am loving every minute of it.
Day 8: I love football. Especially love fantasy football. If anyone ever wants to learn how to play I will teach you.
Day 9: I am a huge Minnesota Vikings and Florida State football fan.
Day 10: I am currently building an ice palace in the ice plains. It's going to be epic.
Day 11: My favorite legendary is mewtwo
Day 12: So I've decided I'm terrible at choosing favorites, because today my favorite ice pokemon is Glaceon he's a beast.
Day 13: I used to live in North Dakota, and I remember when it snowed so badly it covered our house to the second floor. Ice for life? Haha
Day 14: My favorite color is purple.
Day 15: I can never order pizza with other people, because I like pizza toppings everyone hates.
Day 16: Let's see... I have always had a love for pokemon. As an adult this stands out even more. One of the things that I think is awesome about pokemon is that its almost like playing chess, but with more pizazz. Think about the idea of having a water pokemon that uses electric moves, how is that possible? Well pokemon like chinchou make that possible. Or ice pokemon that use water moves to beat fire pokemon like Cloyster. Its this simple idea that makes pokemon more awesome than any other idea. Its also cool that a video game created an anime. The idea that pokemon has been a world wide phenomenon and may soon even have a theme park section in the new Nintendo world coming to Orlando florida. Yes its real and it is happening.
Day 17: I might get hit by a hurricane this weekend. xD
Day 18: My Fantasy football draft is today and I am suppppeerrrr excited! We should do a CraftBros league! By the way this is for American Football. Not International, but American football does play in London a few times a year!
Day 19: I have visited England and France and I love them both.
Day 20: I went to New York last year... The city was amazing, loved the subways. I wish every city had one.
Day 21: Per request... I use apple products. I much prefer IOS. Except for computers I cannot stand mac computers. I cant edit data on them so they bother me. As an IT guru I need a PC under my fingers to survive.
Day 22: I hope to beat all of the gym leaders. Regardless of whether or not I get to be gym leader I will continue to battle!
Day 23: Having little to no internet has destroyed my life this weekend. Not being on for 3 days... All Ive thought about is this dang server.
Day 24: On Day 24 I'd like to congratulate Ken for becoming the water gym leader.
Day 25: I've been asked this question many times before but I will answer it here as well, I do have skype. I haven't used it since college, but I can utilize it for staff meetings as it is used on this server. Most of the time I prefer in game chat.
Day 26: I love spicy food. I have won 3 different hot food eating challenges.
Day 27: The first gym badge I received on this server was the Steel Gym Badge.
Day 28: I have stiches on my right wrist. I had to have a cyst removed.
Day 29: I once lived in North Dakota. Yes I am a Unicorn.
Day 30: My family moved from North Dakota after the city we lived in set a world record. The record was for most snowfall in a single evening. The record was broken by Buffalo, New York Last Year. IF this doesn't personify that Ice is Life I don't know what does.
Day 31: I am starting an anime and manga club at my school. We are going to have one day a week devoted to the study and playing of pokemon. I've become so obsessed xD.
Day 32: As of this writing I have 5 gym badges. Mine, Soul, Heat, Boulder and Forest.
Day 33: I would like to put one of my favorite quotes here today. - "It takes courage to grow up and become who you really are." ~E.E. Cummings This is so true in almost every part of life. As an adult to say I like pokemon is crazy, but I do. Don't forget who you are in the process of growing up. Embrace it and good things will follow.
Day 34: As of today I have 6 gym badges. I have added cascade to my collection.
Day 35: I love chinese food.
Day 36: There was a time when I wanted to be an egyptoligist. I love everything that has to do with Egypt from the pyramids to hieroglyphics. I have two tattoos and both of them relate to egypt. I cannot wait until I visit there. And I WILL visit there.
------------------------------------------
From this point forward the days will be new reasons and information for me wishing to be a helper on the server. I have included the old information for those who never got the opportunity to read it.
Day 37: I often see that helpers and teachers are similar. As a teacher I need to manage my classroom in a safe an inviting way. This is the most important aspect of a helper. A helper should be someone people see as inviting and safe to ask questions to.
