I'd like to enter, and meet the requirements of not having, and really wanting, a copy of Minecraft, but feel I should work for my entry. So have this heartwarming, and entirely fictional, account/sob-story as to why I want Minecraft.

Also, it's really easy to type minecraft as minceraft - I would also like a minceraft if anyone has one available. I could fashion it into a gondola and float it on a canal of pasta sauce and move it with a punt made of a giant piece of spaghetti and have the most ludicrous Italian experience.

Why I want Minecraft

It was the last of my parent's worries, as they left me there playing with Lego. They didn't know then what they, and I, know now only too well. Brick after brick I would build monuments to my own greatness, only to smash them down again, allegorical of the impermanent nature of our own existences. I was the destroyer and creator, Shiva of my own universe of little, inappropriate for children under 18 months due to small parts, plastic bricks. I was born to build, and was all set to go on to be a great engineer, a visionary, not just some twat who slaps together plate glass monstrosities in weird shapes because they think it looks cool - but someone who could truly marry beauty and practicality in a way not seen since the days of Brunel.

Then it all changed. Then the accident happened and I was no longer going to be that great engineer. That and I was a bit shit at maths, but it was mainly the accident, I could have got by on the maths, that's what calculators are for, isn't it?

One trip, one slip, one stupid, poorly-made-in-China, slippery, cheap sole of a kids shoe that has that bit in the heel that lights up that made me feel well cool when I was younger - I fell, and two Lego bricks found their way into my eyes. One in each. I often sit and wish, if only they'd been longer, and sharper, and not made of cheap, brittle plastic, then I'd be dead and not living this nightmare that never ends.

Now, my vision as I knew it is gone. The doctors did the best they could but, returning me to my former glory was never going to happen. Now, I merely see the world as a collection of low-resolution, pixelated cubes of material! I tried building with Lego but couldn't understand the dimensions. They looked like cubes but they weren't cubes! It was so confusing. I tried to build a house and it came out looking like Shrek's bollocks! I just didn't have it anymore.

I lived with this for years. Years of anguish, years of pain, years of tears, Tears for Fears, Mad World "I find it kind of funny, I find it kind of sad, that the dreams in which I'm dying are the best I've ever had..." - It was a troubled time for me. I turned to alcohol for a while, but lost heart in that when I found the empty bottles and cans didn't stack as neatly as my perceptions told me. Kept waking people up with the crashing, clinking, smashing and rattling. Sex? That's a laugh, you ever tried fitting a square peg in what everyone tells me is a round hole!? It's too scary. Slipping as a child, and falling on two really quite coincidentally placed Lego bricks that caused an obviously fabricated condition was the worst thing that ever happened to me.

Then, I heard about this new virtual world for people like me. It's called Minecraft and apparently it's all made of cubes like what I see, so I would fit in there. Things would make sense for me there. I hear there are dangers. Explodey things, skellingtons and spiders and such, but I don't mind. I just need to be where things make sense. I need to be where I can be the engineer of my dreams and make awesome stuff like giant pigs hovering in the air, and castles made of gold and a giant wooden horse for when Trojans and Greeks pop in to my servers and we have a ruddy good time. Effigies of our least favourite people made of wool so we can burn them and celebrate and shout "BURN THE SOD, GO ON!" I can be the engineer of my dreams. I need to be where I fit in, where I am comfortable. I need to be where I belong, and that place is Minecraft.

I'm interested in the game

Hey, I hope your computer troubles are behind you. I'd love a shot at getting Minecraft. I've spent too much time playing Terraria, going 3D seems like the logical choice! :)

Count me it.
