Rayg's contents, under pressure.

We're trying a new thing in BZPStuck: Voting! While commands are still a great way to drive the story forward, now you have a more direct method to tell us what to do. Our first poll is a relatively simple plot point - what sort of weapon Hannah will be wielding, but as we go on you're going to see more and more interesting choices (What should brian do, burn down his house or eat all his vegetables??). Of course, those will only happen if I see this getting a good turnout, so do yourself a favor and let your voice be heard!
 
Vote Here! (and scroll down for a visual image of the choices)

Okay, I swear to you we will have that update up before the world ends. In the meantime, I did some more drawing.
 

 
See, Mr. Monocles over there really doesn't take kindly to people who insinuate he is anything but loyal. Don't worry, I'm sure they'll make up and be best friends soon after.
 
Of course I also really liked how the original black and white looked. Maybe I'll make a print-your-own coloring book for the comic once we've made it a little further down the road. Why? BECAUSE.
 

 
 

Uh, NO!

Duh, what a stupid question.

In fact, there at least a month's worth of updates drawn and just rarin to go, all that's needed is a little spit shine and polish from our current active player Lehvaklah. In addition, the VERY NEXT UPDATE, which will be coming out "soon", will feature some cool new interactivity that I hope will become a more permanent thing and allow us to give you some more direct control. I'm shooting for tomorrow with it, but then again I've been shooting for "tomorrow" for the last week, so who knows! Here have some pictures of something cool in the meantime.

Hannah and her dog Pommes Frites have always been the best of friends - it's not often you find someone who so openly shares your passion for the potato!

BZPSTUCK WISHES YOU A SAFE AND HAPPY HOLIDAY ONE HOUR IN THE PAST.

Just so you know I'm incredibly proud of my work on that Inception paragraph in the latest update - it's every bit as pompous, angsty, and overbearing as I could make it. Had to channel my inner sixteen year old, but the results are undeniable. One parts ridiculous pop culture references, one part pointless pining for love, and a dozen drops of meaningless philosophical refuse make the perfect concoction.

Hey there beautiful, what brings you to my little corner of the internet world?

Oh, you say you're itchin to do some code huh?

Well you're in luck. I've got my eye on some saucy wench who could mix me up a dumbed down version of MNOG. Are you suave enough to handle it??

I'll just bet you are.

Seriously though, if you've got an interest in helping me with a neat project and the abilities to do so, please shoot me a message.

^My face when I realized how many months I've been doing this^

So today marks a very significant landmark for me and the silly little webcomic I've been creating for you guys the past...oh...seven months now? (OH GOD seven MONTHS??). The first set of Server/Client pairs is just about to go full steam ahead with this game, and I can tell you guys I'm very excited. We really are moving forward, this is further than I ever dreamed we would get, and now is where it's time to drop all your expectations because things are going to change significantly.

Admittedly, I showed a few of my cards already with the reveal of Stardex. I was a little hesitant to actually do it when we did - originally it was more of an End of Act kind of reveal. However, I think now it actually helps by showing exactly how this comic compares and differs with Homestuck - you expected dreamselves and a golden city, but as you'll come to see even these things are very different than what you thought they were going to be. Likewise with this game. I'm excited for you to see it friends, and I hope you enjoy reading it as much as I have making it.

Boom. That's right, sweet new art contest. Enter now guys, this one's only gonna last like two weeks and that's IT.

This is intended as a design challenge for our members - the plan originated when it was decided we would have a sweet matte painting done as a backdrop for some of our MOCs this year at Brickfair - we wanted Ta-Koro, but the question became what about the most popular members of this little village? What of poor Tahu, noble Vakama, and sad little Jaller? Do they not get to be featured? We couldn't very well just put the sets on display, and me drawing them on the scene seemed a little boring. Plus, I wanted a way for Bionicle artists to get some play at Brickfair this year - we often have members send in posters they have done, but I wanted something more visceral and interactive. That's how I hit upon the idea of asking our members to design the characters themselves so that I could print them out and basically create free standing pieces of artwork that could intermingle with the various MOCS on display. Thus, the contest was born. Unfortunately the entry period got a bit truncated by the Battlescapes contest which uh...overran it's runtime by a bit. So sorry about that! On the bright side, sweet stickers are the prize. And also maybe some other stuff. Possibly.

Oh yeah, and that comic? we're working on it. update maybe tomorrow. With brickfair getting closer and closer I've had to catch up on some other tasks to get ready for it.
