Before I say anything: What made me write this is the Nocturn's island confusion in the OGD, and I felt it was my obligation as a Greg Team member, because my colleagues that do the Farshtey Feed will be among the ones suffering from the confusion created by people who don't know how to ask Greg a question properly. Don't feel offended by this blog entry, but regard it as a piece of good advice.
Okay, let's get started. These are things to consider when writing to our fellow member and BIONIC
Okay, for those who are interested, two new topics by me:
The Chronicler Issue 13 (read it if you know any German - you won't regret it and you would recognise the efforts we put into it by doing so)
Desert Birdwatching Contest Results (congrats to Hot Pants)

Because of the release of the last comic, I am going through my recollections of the past nine years. That included rummaging through my old BZP topics, and I rediscovered this:
11 Toa and 1.5 Matoran words
Now, back then I jumped through my room for hours, almost crying out of joy. Only a few days later, I noticed what I had done - I started the canon-making avalanche. After I posted this topic, Greg received 15 PMs a day with new suggestions. He even wrote a blog entry about that, which
"It is said that all endings are merely beginnings..." - Mata Nui, The Legend Reborn
This blog entry exists to mourn a unique villain of uncompared evilness, to remember a universe I loved and to welcome the possibilities of the future.
Cheers!
Fact of the day: Too much work can kill you.
Here is a short overview of things I have to do:
1) Prepare for final exam in April, especially for the Maths part.
2) Finally get the new Chronicler (formerly IDBM) issue done.
3) Complete my work on "The Complete Legend"
4) Translate The Crossing Chapter 4, Journey's End Chapter 2 and Sahmad's Tale Chapter 2 for The Chronicler. I'll do ST 2 today.
5) Write a short report about a trip of my school's library staff (of which I am part) for the
I just received my Cambridge CAE marks (Certificate in Advanced English). The overall mark is A, and I got 85% correct. This is how I did in the various parts of the examination:
I was surprised about the listening part, though - I would have thought my writing was worst (not because of my style, no, but because of the contents - I almost missed the subject I was supposed to write about).

I feel forced to write this...
I will do this in A&C style - popular arguments and my counter-arguments.
A) Canon contests ruin mystery.
C) You are right as long as you restrain "mystery" to "character appearance" - but there are more mysteries in BIONICLE than just the looks of some characters. And you may want to check out this BS01 page to see how many characters are still lacking an image - there is no way anyone is ever going to do a contest for all of them. Even if they were wil
Do not bypass or allude to words in the filter. - Kohaku I ordered "The Clone Wars: The Complete First Season" from Amazon.de and along with it I ordered two of those Kanohi/Krana bags you may remember from 2002. Today the shipment arrived, but it included only one pack of Krana, while all documents on my order say I ordered and payed for two! I already wrote to Amazon.de Customer Service and I am eager to hear their reply. -.-
Okay, guess what just happened
One of my best friends has got birthday today and I'm invited to her party tomorrow. Last week I already bought what I thought to be the perfect gift - the book "Coraline" by Neil Gaiman, her favourite author. Now she just told me via Skype that she got the very same book today... honestly, I could kill myself right now >.<
I watched the uncut Caprica pilot yesterday
1) Alessandra Torresani as Zoe Graystone looks really beautiful
2) The religious and cultural issues are very intriguing, especially Joseph Adama's ties to the underworld and the Soldiers of the One
3) The ancestors of William and Lee Adama are quite an interesting bunch.
4) I had to laugh when I first saw 11-year-old William. Bill Adama has always been referenced to as the "Old Man" in Battlestar Galactica, so this innocent little school boy rea
Today I saw this bag full of potato chips in my local store... it read:
"Salt & Vinegar - English Style"
Well, I am not English, and if you ask me why I bought it, I have to stay true to my motto: "Can't answer it."
But: They taste SO GOOD! You may excuse me now, I have to ingest the rest of this delicious meal.
Well, due to recent developments regarding my position here on BZP, I felt it was appropriate to take the most-used Greg reply as blog name.
Do you like the new name? - Can't answer it!
EDIT: Thanks to Sumiki for the idea for my blog subtitle .
