7. Please introduce yourself to the community; explaining who you are, your interests / hobbies and why you are here in 8 sentences or more.
My in-game name is Choppie. I have been a PC Gamer since about the age of 6, but had my first computer when I was 4 (who remembers Windows 3.1?). I take a fascination in computer programming, and later this year am taking my first computing course for an A-Level. I learned types of code (most notably Java and Lua) through making mods for games, although I have never made one public.
Currently, I am about to start the last 5-weeks of school. I am in my last year of GCSEs, and am expected mostly mediocre grades of mostly Bs, but have a few A-A*s and Cs. As a future career, I would like to work for a computer-giant, such as IBM, or if I go down the physics career line (to which I have taken an interest in space and time), I would like to be an astro-physicist. My plans for university and quite vague at the moment. As much as I would like to do computing at Oxford, I doubt I'd be able to with a GCSE background such as mine. I have found that it is probably more likely to get into Southampton University, or something of that caliber.
My secondary hobby is cycle-racing. I started in 2009, when I was 13, going on 14. I have since raced in national racing, becoming 5th in national championships, and 3rd in regional (south England) championships. I regularly race at a velodrome, but since moving to a higher age group, I have started to struggle.

9. Is there anything else you wish to share with us?
I have been following Minecraft since late 2009, and finally bought an account just before Alpha in 2010. Since then I have played many hours of single and multiplayer, as well as run numerous servers. Unfortunately, due to my financial situation (still being in full-time education) the funding is by the generosity of the parents. As such, most have had to shut down after a month or two.
10. Are you aware that the use of black magic (xray,xray texture packs and ore locator mods) is not allowed on our server, and a banishable offense?
Yes, and I quite agree!
11. How did you find out about our server?
My friend (I can give their in-game name if you'd like).
12. Have you voted for us?
Indeed.
