Hey.
Bit of a longshot, but here goes.
About Me
I'm monkeyapex, also known as Ben. I am 16 years of age and hail from the United Kingdom (GMT: +0). I have been playing Toribash for just over 2 years now and enjoyed every minute of it. I feel I have progressed through the ranks to see myself play with some pretty big names and through this I feel I have also learnt lots about the game and it's community. I started Multiplayer as soon as I got the game and started making singleplayer replays seriously about 8+ months ago. Since then I feel I have learnt a lot and consider myself an "average" replay maker, nothing special. I am kind, honest, always happy and willing to listen to people as well as speak my mind when I deem necessary, and a great team player. I am of Global Rank 280 something. I have been featured in many videos (

Activity
On the forums I am very active. Post count is 1000+ and I am always ingame, whether it be Single or Multiplayer. I can help in wars and events (I have Photoshop, but I am sure you're all better than me at it). I have got my exams coming up in May, however, so I may be on and off then as I haven't even started revising yet...
Previous Clans
I have been in only one clan in my entire career and that was with (Flip) or "BackFlip". I was a member and recruited at around Brown Belt and managed to make my way to the leader of that clan as the former leader was inactive. I was nominated and became Flip's leader for around.... Phew.... 5 Months? Maybe...? I don't know, but I learnt a lot as a leader about responsibility. The reason I left was because the activity was starting to deteriorate, members were leaving, and it all went a bit pear-shaped. I handed my leadership over to DarkerHarder to try and revive today. In no way do I consider this act as me trying to run away from responsibility, I just saw that things weren't going well and I am tired of trying to make it work. I had to revive the clan once, I can't do it again.
Outside of Toribash
I am a photographer in my spare time (

Why eVo?
eVo is an incredible clan. I have heard so much about you guys and you have some incredibly talented players in here. I feel that it would be great to learn some things from you guys as you all have unique styles.
Replays
As you have seen most of my Multiplayer replays, I will show you some of my Singleplayer ones. Now please bare with me, I am still learning and will continue to learn for as long as I play this game. I have only been making replays for just over half a year now and I still don't consider myself to have found "my style".
WARNING, I AM A SKEET LOVER. I FREAKING LOVE SKEETING. SO MUCH FUN. I also have a thing for naming my replay's weird stuff...
"Knock at the Door"
This replay was made very recently. I am still learning to play in -3.92 gravity. I am all about -30 as I think it suits my playstyle most. This isn't the cleanest, smoothest replay either. But I thought I should let you know about my "weaker" side to replay making.
"Please Enter Your Password"
This replay is one of my favourites. Now, I know it's in low-grav, but I love it so much. Now I will admit... I got Skywhale to do the skeet, but that was only because I left the replay with him after the kick and I loved what he did with it so much.
"The Gods are Pleased"
This replay was pretty cool for me. I feel that it shows how creative I can be. I couldn't get the punch without breaking my hand off, so I made the most of it, carried on and tried to see what I could do with it. And to everyone's surprise, I made a skeet out of it. Hehe. :P
"Good Heavens"
So... I like to trick. I think it's so cool. I love corks and backflips and everything, but in my opinion... It's too mainstream. It gets boring after a while and I think if you can make stuff up on the go then that way, for me, it's more enjoyable. This replay isn't my best tricking replay, I just feel that the butterfly at the end was great. It's a risky entry, hopefully it pays off.
"Death Has a Grip"
This is a short replay, I hope it isn't too short. Just trying to show off my agility. If that's a thing...
Anyway, this has been my application for eVo. If you guys have anymore questions, feel free to PM me or tell me on here. I hope I haven't wasted your time and I hope to hear from you soon!
~Thanks.
