A lot has changed after 10 years!

Xbox Suggestions?

So I've been thinking about buying an Xbox sometime in the next year, mainly so that I'll be able to play Halo 3 with a few of my classmates while we're all in different colleges. However, I think it would almost be a waste to just get an Xbox for only one game, but I've never really checked out all the games for Xbox. Does anyone know any good games that they may recommend once I do get one?   Argetlam

What? An Moc Contest? Really?

Yes, due to the request of several people, I will be holding an MOC contest (BBC style) in my blog. I'm also wanting to do this because there is no BBC Contest this month. I will also be entering this contest, but I haven't gotten a head start on my MOC or anything like that (I'm still not sure what to do), so it's not like I'm cheating.   Theme   I'm sure it's been done before, but I like the idea; so the theme of this contest is: Self MOCs! That's right, you need to make a self MOC to en

My First Lego Set Ever.

And I'm not even sure what it was called. I've had it since I was, oh, probably 2 or 3.     It stored Lego pieces of all sorts inside of it, and when you were done playing, you'd run the device pictured along the ground and it would scoop up the pieces. The mechanism that did so is in picture number three.   Without "lid". "Vacuum" part.   Can anyone tell me what this is and maybe how much the whole thing is worth?   The Argetlam

Elections Of '08

Bumping since it's Tuesday the 4th.   With the elections coming up really soon, I find myself curious about which candidate people people are supporting. I've seen a few entries already of people stating who their supporting, and I'd like to do the same.   I would like to make known, however, that I'm not locking this entry right away. I ask that you post here saying which candidate you support, but THAT IS ALL. There can be nothing else in your comment. I don't want to break BZP rules her

Final Polls

Here it is... the moment everyone has been waiting for... the Final Polls. There was a tie in one of the Semi-final Polls, so both of the entries advanced to this round. Because of this, there are 4 entries to vote for, but you can only vote for one...   Final Poll   Toa_Ausar 36   Shadow Rahkshi 11   CzaR 2   Chrome (Kharu V2) 3     Voting in this poll begins now, and ends on Monday, January 7, 2008 at 11:59:59 PM. Prizes for winners are as follows:   1st - Banner stating that you

Preliminary Polls

Alrighty, here's the Preliminary Poll to my Self MOC contest. The 15 entries have been divided up into three groups of 5 randomly. I put all your names in a hat and had my dad choose 5 of them (which was one group), 5 more (the second group), and then the 5 remaining (the last group). Here are the entries, click for full picture:   Preliminary Poll 1   kyuubi 5   Aklan 2   (The) Argetlam 25   pulsar444 (Vrillai) 6   (The) Juggernaut 11   Preliminary Poll 2   Anathame 5   Inika

The Observatory Contest 2

Your mission in this blog-based contest is to build an MOC of absolutely anything! The catch is that the MOC has to include two or more launchers (Cordak, Midak, Kanoka, Rhotuka, etc.). They can be two or more of the same launcher, or a combination of different launchers. Be as creative in their placement and use as possible (whether or not they function is up to you, but still, try to be creative).   Creations can have up to 50% system parts.   Entries will be accepted starting now, and to

Senior Lounge

Sooooo, our class is officially pathetic now. We spend a lot of time in our Principal's Office, mostly messing around and drinking his coffee, etc., and someone had made the comment that his office had become something like the Teacher's Lounge, except for Seniors. So, I made a nice looking sign that says "Senior Lounge" and hung it on his office door. It's still there, and he has actually said that he's fine with it being there.     Argetlam

Camp...

So, Sr. High Camp in Devils Lake, ND begins tomorrow, and I'll be embarking at about 8 AM. The camp lasts until Friday, when I'll get home at about 5:30-6:00 PM. During that time, I will have no access to any computers, but hopefully I'll be able to log onto BZP at least once or twice on my iPod. If not, well, I'll be back on Friday.   Also, prizes for the Pimp My Blog contest = epic win.   Argetlam

Semi-final Polls

Ok, as can be seen in the Preliminary Polls, the final tallies have been marked, and the winners of each round are shown. The top three (I know I said two before, but two wouldn't work out the way I wanted it to) spots in each Poll have advanced to the Semi-final Poll, but only the winner of each Semi-final Poll will advance to the Final Poll. As was done in the Preliminaries, the spots for each MOC was random.   Semi-final Poll 1   Synthesis (Mikerahk) 10   Toa_Ausar 22   pulsar444 (Vr

Bzp, Minneapolis, And Brickfair!

It's great to see that BZP is back up again. In its down time, I actually found myself so bored that I wondered what I did in my free time before I joined the site. A few weeks ago, myself and BZP member Alku went to Minneapolis on a youth trip to ValleyFair (a large amusement park). We spent plenty of time at the Mall of America (mostly the LEGO Imagination Center) as well, got ourselves the titan Mata Nui set, and took a picture with the both of us standing near Tahu. I haven't uploaded an

And You Thought It Was Mediocre...

Out of curiosity, what instruments do you play? I've been known to play some piano, guitar, a bit of trumpet, and some clarinet, but my forte is definitely with a drum set. Drumming is my musical passion.

Lol Human Brain.

Why is it that I can remember a Christmas from 12 years ago in perfect detail, but I can't remember for what reason I just went into the kitchen?   O.o   Argetlam

Been Mocing

I haven't in quite a while, but I'm back on the MOCing line trying out various projects for things that I might bring to BrickFair. If anyone has any ideas for possible projects, by all means, put them here, I'd be very interested in trying them out.   Also, saw Jupiter for the first time this year last night.   Argetlam

Control

Control Take control of the atmosphere, Take me far away from here. There is no better loss than to lose myself in you. In a parachute to glide, I am captive in your sky. Surrender somehow becomes so beautiful. Take control of the atmosphere, Take control of the atmosphere. You can take my world, you can fill the air. Take control, take control. Such a beautiful surrender, Such a beautiful surrender, Such a beautiful surrender, Such a beautiful surrender. Move me up through

Updated Astronomy Awards. Six More!

That's right, so many other people have made their own awards, I finally decided to do so myself. If you deserve any of them, comment here to say which you are taking, and feel free to take them, but if you don't deserve them, don't take them; it's as simple as that. These awards are fashioned after the comm badges on Star Trek Voyager. I call them Astronomy Awards, and they are full of win.   - Red - For having a blog. - Green - For having over 500 comments in your blog. - Blue - For h

10 years is a long time.

I have been receiving emails of late indicating new blog entries from a number of old friends here on BZP.  Apparently the blogging system just returned after a lengthy hiatus?  It has been years since I've visited the forums, but I've never forgotten all the fun I had as a part of this community.  I am still alive, and I would enjoy reconnecting with anyone who remembers me from quite literally a decade ago!  My absence over the last 10 years can largely be explained by school.  I began my fres
