Hey mate, not sure if you got around to making your app yet, but if you have not, applications are now open so go ahead and do so! Cheers!
This was my second application which I spent a little more time on. if you'd like me to re app I wouldnt mind at all.
Horde or Alliance?
Horde
What class and spec would you like to receive funding on and why?
I'd like to receive funding for a resto shaman. When speaking to my GM(Drugs) about what classes were needed he mentioned resto shaman. Because I've never played the healer role much, I feel like resto shaman would not only benefit my guild but my curious attitude. I feel like this game has recently lacked a lot to do. Playing a resto shaman would open an entirely new world to me and give me something to figure out. As I mentioned before, I never played that many healers especially in a PvP environment. Resto shaman would give me the opportunity to help out my guild, friends, teammates, and would also help me learn a new skill.
What do you need? (Gold / Gear / Guild)
I’m in need of gear. Having spent most of my gold on my other twinks, I lack the necessary funds to pay for any of the boe items that are required to become bis. I still have enough gold to pay for enchants and boas but after that I’m pretty much broke. This means I’m only in need of 1 or 2 items. Though it might not seem like a huge fund, it will help a ton due to my current situation of not being able to get my hands on these boes.
Have you played in a twink bracket before?
I played a tiny bit of the 39 twink bracket as a hunter back in WOTLK. However I didn’t know nearly as much about twinking as I do today(this doesn’t mean I still have a lot to learn.) I quit the game at the end of WOTLK and I rejoined late cata(when MoP was announced) and played in the F2P bracket on and off up until WoD. At this point I felt like I needed a change so I decided to buy and account and move up to 29. I’ve played 29s up until now and only recently have I started to explore the 19 bracket and I am absolutely loving it!
Why do you need funding?
I need funding due to the fact that I've spent a lot of the gold needed to gear this twink on other twinks I have. Twinks are not cheap. So making a twink with the limited amount of gold I had to start with was hard enough. At this point I only have enough to buy some boas and enchants and even at that point I’m barely able to afford them. This funding would help me get the necessary items needed to make a bis resto shaman. This translates to the required boe item(s) and some enchants.
How can our funding help your twinking experience?
This funding would help foster my interest in learning more about playing a level 19 twink. Not only would I be able to learn about the healer role in 19 twinking but to also learn about the community and people in this community as a whole. Overall I’d become a much better player from this funding and it would help me become more involved with the 19 twink bracket.
How do you play your class?
I like to play my class with patience and intelligence. This means I won’t just run into battle mashing my keyboard not knowing what I’m doing. In summary it means I play my class how it’s supposed to be played, however this doesn’t mean I’m not open to new styles and techniques. I always want to learn new things about how to play this game and this twink will strengthen my ability at not only a healing role but will also give me a better understanding of playing a twink in general.
How do you contribute to your team?
I think I can contribute to my team because I'm a very determined player. No matter what I won't just give up on my teammates. I’m always looking to better myself in any way possible and I am always open to constructive criticism. This helps my team in a few ways. Firstly, if I can never take criticism i will never become a better player. This means I will always stay at one skill level and this will put my team at a disadvantage because we will then be facing teams who are constantly getting better and surpassing our skill. Secondly, it eliminates opportunity to fight or be angry with my teammates. If I have a predetermined understanding that my team only wants to help me, the chances of disagreement will decrease which will help my team become closer. And thirdly, i believe that my determination can not only help myself become a better play but also encourage my teammates to better themselves also.
Are you interested in competitive PvP? If so, what qualifies you?
I am! Way back in the day I played on a competitive Call of Duty team. Though Call of Duty is nothing like WoW, the competitive nature and team based environment carries over to any competitive activity. I also feel my determination plays a big part in my qualification for competitive PvP. This means that I’m always looking to better myself and I’ll never settle for less. Another feature that qualifies me is my cool attitude. When I lose, I don’t rage and give up I see that as a learning opportunity. If a teammate screws up I won’t rage at them either. I think the only way to get better at anything is making mistakes and learning from them. It upsets me when I see players get mad at other players in bgs or arenas for making mistakes. We all have to remember that we once made mistakes like that. I feel that these features qualify me for competitive PvP because I’m a team player, I always want to learn something new and I am a cool, calm and composed player.
What sparked your interest in becoming a member of the 19 twink community?
Before the 19 community I played the 20-29 bracket. With extremely long que times and not much of a competitive environment I looked around at other brackets with more of this feature. This is when the 19 community caught my eye. With the Twink Cup and just a more competitive quality to it i was instantly drawn to this bracket. I’m also a huge fan of early game. I love the simplicity and barriers that twinking(especially at low levels like 19 and 29) puts on me. The more barriers the better because that’s when people can be most creative.
How did you find out about / Who referred you to this thread?
I went onto twinkinfo and saw the giant teal text on the top of the page so i decided to check it out.
Have you added your battletag and armory links to the twink network thread?
Yup
Can you provide us with a screenshot of your UI?
This UI might not work for other people but it works perfectly for me. With the size of my monitor I'm able to see everything perfectly. Imgur
What do you have to offer to the 19s twink community?
Something I feel I can offer to this community and especially my team(if I end up joining one) is determination. When a problem arises I won't just give and say, "Oh well." I like to take those problems and 1 shot swofty macro them. I'm always ready to address and solve a problem when it gets in my way. I believe this helps the twink community because I believe my determination can can spark determination in other people around me not only in the twink community but in the game in general. Though i might not be the best player or have the most gold or best gear, I feel I can create a fun environment around me.
Do you have any friends or guildmates in the 19s community we should know about?
I'm friends with Paul who i believe plays on alliance Bleeding hollow but that's about all. I'd love to make some new friends and embed myself in this community though.
Is there anything else we should know about you?
I'm always ready to learn something new and explore. In this case to play a healer better and to also explore the 19 twinking community more. This community is really friendly and I'd love to be apart of it!
