My MCSG Story

Hey guys this is InsanePickaxe and I've noticed lots of people doing their MCSG stories and I have been putting off doing my own for a while now, but I have finally decided I would do my own so lets get started.

So basically I started of as your casual PS3 gamer playing first person shooters, Fifa, need for speed and all those other games. I would play all these games with my friends but then after a while I gradually realised I was mostly playing by my self (Forever alone). On the walks to school every day I head my friends talking about this game called Minecraft and this was all new to me. I never expected to playing a game which consisted of pixel blocks. Hearing of the game as it became more and more popular and my friends talking about them all playing on their own server was making me very jealous so one day I went along and bought the game for my self. After getting the game I was surprised to find it amusing wondering around my friends server building things but even though I was a decent builder I found it to not be much of my thing. So I went of in search of a new experience in servers, after a while of going through many "Average" servers I came across a load of hunger games servers which I thought would be good because I liked the book and film. I found these to be very amusing so I introduced my friends to it and we would run as far away as possible at the start dig a little base then make some equipment to help us hopefully win. These servers had 120 players and me and my friend found our selves in the winning position only once after a month of playing which was not satisfying enough. Then these servers started turning bad they would lag, there was hackers and we just wanted a better experience. So me and my friends carried on playing on our own server for quite a while until eventually there it was my friend had found MCSG. My friends names were MarshMan and Pressure_Wave.

July/August: So finally we had found these servers and we were all very fond of them and really enjoying ourselves. I remember my first game on the survival games as we all started off on our pedestals on Over Grown Arena it was tense I could feel my palms slightly starting to sweat. We rushed to the middle and all escaped with a few decent things. We followed Marsh for the whole game seeing as he had played the game longer than us and was the lesser of us noobs. Eventually we all died before Death match with me falling into a trap and the others getting ambushed by a guy with good stuff. Even though we lost we had a lot of fun and carried on playing for a long time. Eventually one day some weeks after it was just me and Marsh playing on SG2 and we had eventually developed a route and tactics on this beautiful map that staggered me every time I played on it. We would collect a route of about 20 chests then we rushed to refill which to our surprise was not taken. Eventually it got to Death Match and it was a forced Death Match due to running out of time and it was me and Marsh against another fully decked team. Having discussed what we would do we rushed straight up the vines and camped on top. My heart was beating at this point but we did it we had managed to take out the other team and win the Survival games. So I let Marsh kill me and he got his very first win! Then next game the very same thing happened and we had both gotten our first wins! At this point we were loving Survival Games and would go on as soon as we got home from school until we had to go late at night.

September/October: At this point I had managed to rack up 8 wins and was really enjoying playing. Then I met two players in game on the new lobby Minecraft_man and MightyMitch666 I managed to persuade them to let me team with them pretending I was in their clan #Critical ^^ we played a lot of games together and got a lot of wins together those guys were awesome =P Then just as the new maps like SG4 and Breeze Island came out I met a new player called Bluemoonp (He has left now) who was by far the most awesome guy I met and he started to team with me and MarshMan. Generally playing with him was very fun and he would normally let me or MarshMan win. At this point found my self to be getting a bit better at Pvp thanks to playing with other good players.

November/December: At this point my wins were really piling up I had managed to reach a respectable 80 wins whilst my friends trailed behind on around 20 wins ^^ I really was becoming good at pvp, I met even more cool players, then I applied for my first proper clan called #Void Squad and I got in! I had a lot of fun in this clan and stayed in it for a long while and remember some eventful times. For instance we had a member who we found out was a hacker and told them to get out of our clan and then they said they were calling the police about us "bullying" her for telling her to simply leave the clan. Yes fun times. Then the day after I was speaking to the owner and realised I had been promoted to trusted in the clan and was very happy :D After I while I left this clan seeing as I found it had became very in-active.

January/February: At this point I really started taking Survival games seriously and was going for the wins. I watched videos and spoke to good players on how they win their games and how they're good at pvp. Eventually I had came up with a good strategy for every map and was developing at pvp. In normal pvp I would strafe around the player getting as many critical hits as I could that being my my normal tactic. Sometimes if I had less chance I would lead them to a narrow spot set them on fire then snipe from further away to finish the job. In water I would simply get underneath the player and juggle him above me. After developing good tactics in pvp and finding good chest routes I started winning a lot more and found my self at an astonishing 100 wins! :O

March/April: This has definitely got to be my most active and best couple of months of MCSG, I managed to get up to 170 wins and had a whole load of new experiences. At this point I had been in too many clans to count. But I had met a lot of new nice people Eg: mmohan, bluemoonp, mrmad2000, g8mes4u, aag2000, mylilfony, epicepicepic1, edtheg, copa, skeletonboss, walt55, bryneman, youbetterrun, swanhd, skipper, saucycmeister, pigofdestiny, MegaDani900, Zniz97, Thingy, D4rk_Sorcerer (some of these I had known longer) and more! Me and SaucyCMeister made a feeble attempt to start a clan #TheImperials where I quit after a day I would generally have a lot of fun Skype calling with all of those people above and we would often win! As well as all this I found another server "pvp.mcswish.ch" where I found a lot of people from MCSG where they would practice pvp for the Survival games (Try it out if you want to practice Pvp with some of MCSG's best players) I learnt a lot about pvp and I would say I was becoming a little better than good at pvp and would win a lot of fights against good people, still cold never beat people like zeX_99, gcb or Elgoldo though. During early March I downloaded Team Speak and started to report players who I found were hacking and during my time doing this I decided I would really like to become a mod to help these amazing servers out, so I went and applied and my mod app is still under review now! One of the last good things about these past months was that I found out about these forums and I now really love posting on these forums thanks to a really nice and active community I also love helping people out :D

Well there it is I, may edit some stuff in or out, I appreciate all of you guys who took the time to read my whole story and I hope you enjoyed it! I have made a lot of friends along the line and not to mention some enemies, but I will always enjoy MCSG and I thank everybody who is involved in making MCSG what it is today including all the staff, the community it self and of course Mr ChadTheDJ him self for making such amazing servers allowing for me to have so much fun on! Like I said thanks for listening to my story see you all around.
