In-game Name: jon24jon (I think, it has been a while since I've played on a server)
Age: 20 years old
Previous Minecraft Experience: I don't typically play on sevrers, because usually they are populated with very immature players, griefers, and admins. I really would like to play the game online, but I've yet to find a server that isn't in complete chaos (and has no mods).
I have played single-player a lot. I have built a lot of things: from castles, to tree-houses, to infinite cobble-stone generators (love em!!), and 4-story houses. I just want to have some fun. I don't like to cheat: it makes things too easy. I like to play the hard way: hiding in a 2x1 dirt hole until I can get a bed, LOL. It makes having that finished build much more sweet! :) It's also fun to brag: "I went from a dirt hole, almost died from starvation, to this magnificent thing!"
Background: I'm a student of computer science. I have been practicing C++ for just over 2 years now, and hope to work as a programmer for the rest of my life. I LOVE to program. There is nothing like it when you have a finished algorithm that works perfectly with and elegant design. Since I'm in school, I don't have much time for anything, but I usually have the weekends and I play minecraft because it doesn't require much thought to play. When I'm not programming, I'm usually just playing a game.
