Your favorite thing about redstone: Its fun to play with
A build you have made which demonstrates redstone knowledge (This is your trial build): A 4 bit ALU
Explain what your build does in detail: It can do XOR to OR, invert all inputs, it has flood carry and does additions and subtractions.

Do you agree with the rules?: Yes
Just to clarify, could you list out all the operations it can perform? Generally we expect ALUs for trials to perform addition, subtraction, and the main bitwise operations (OR, NOR, AND, NAND, XOR, XNOR)
It can do XOR, NOR, OR, XNOR, AND and NAND (basically all of the operations you’ve just said)

FAQ
Q: What is my next step?
A: Join the ORE Minecraft server and request a trial with any available trialers (Engineers, Moderators, and Admins).
The server IP is mc.openredstone.org and the current version is 1.21.8 on Java Edition.
Q: Do I need to trial right away?
A: Nope! You are free to request a trial at any time so long as your application is accepted (which yours is).
Ideally you want to avoid taking too long, so we strongly recommend being sure you can pass before requesting a trial.
Q: How long does a trial last?
A: This can vary somewhat across different trialers, but generally somewhere around half an hour or less. It will often take longer if you aren’t as prepared, so we recommend reviewing ahead of time, especially with help from another member.
Q: What do I need to know for the trial?
A: This can also vary somewhat across different trialers, but here are some of the most important topics:
- Binary and Binary Arithmetic (Addition/Subtraction)
- Logic Gates and Bitwise Logic
- Redstone Adders and ALUs
- Two’s Complement (Signed Numbers)
A great way to make sure you know what to expect is to ask the specific trialer what you should learn ahead of time.
Q: How often can I retry after failing?
A: There are 2 limitations:
- Trials can be done 24 hours after a failed one
- Only 2 trials can be done every 7 days
Q: What are the benefits of Builder?
A: There are 3 main benefits:
- Permissions to use Worldedit commands
- A plot on the Build server (4 times as large as School server plots)
- Access to the Survival world
Aside from that, there are also some minor benefits such as:
- Running and voting in Staff elections
- Joining the Seasonal server when it’s up (an occasional “Survival with a twist” type server)
- Option to progress to Engineer (barring additional requirements are met)
- Interact with other Build plots (assuming permission from the plot owner)
