  1. I won't accept no as an answer! Happy birthday man. Hope we get to hang out soon!

    The End of the World

    Dangit, I completely managed to erase all Furby related memories from my mind. Now it's all coming back!
  4. I got a Wii at launch way back in 2006. I'm not going to make the same mistake again. There simply won't be any games that interest me. I'm not so sure how much success the console will see, either. I'd rather get a fully functioning tablet instead.
  5. Get to reading, man! They get better and better. I did. I had that title since I first created this blog, so I felt like it was time to change it up a little. It's still music related, but no longer Emery related.
  6. They're very good. Highly recommended.
  7. That's alright. It's not all about winning. I'm mostly just looking to have a good time. I'll make up for any lacking skill. Thanks! I added you.
  8. Does anyone else read these marvelous fantasy epics by George RR Martin? I have been deeply enthralled by everything Game of Thrones for about the past year. I'm currently on book three, "A Storm of Swords." I have always been a fan of fantasy novels, but these stories offer something different. Throughout the books (and HBO show), we have seen and heard whispers and rumors of a deeper magic lying dormant in Westoros. After hundreds, possibly thousands of years, that deep magic is starting to awaken. The twisting political intrigue of the series is highly captivating. As I've been reading these books, I can't help but let my jaw hang wide open as certain characters betray their liege lord's (and the reader's) trust. These thousand page books take a large investment of time. I am definitely a fan, however, and I cannot stop thinking about what's going to happen as I turn each page. A sincere effort must be made to not continue reading well into the morning. Many nights I've stayed up way later than I anticipated because I've been completely absorbed in Arya's unfortunate circumstances or Jon Snow's risky actions. I wish more of my friends read the books. We have to wait another year for the HBO show to release, and I believe even then only half of the season is premiering. "A Storm of Swords" is over 1000 pages, so it only makes sense that it would get two half-seasons. Edit: UNGH I just got to about page 700 and never have I been so full of RAGE and ANGER and HATE. Seriously. What just happened. Who here likes fantasy books? What would be other good series I'd enjoy reading? After I catch up on A Song of Ice and Fire, I'm going to read a sci-fi novel or two. Possibly Ender's Shadow or Restaurant at the End of the Universe.
  9. Excellent. Just send me a friend request on Live soon. Hmmm. Kaleesh, Sonu, and....T-Pain. I'll let you know when we all get on! Certainly! We can start off with squad DLC and move to the specific Anniversary playlists at some point. Bummer you can't play! Maybe some day. Sweet! See you then. It'd be so much easier if they made an Achievement Hunting playlist. Also, we gotta finish Borderlands before 2 comes out!
  10. I'm an achievement hunter. I like earning fake internet points in my video games. I mostly like adding games to my "100% Complete List" on my dashboard. So, this weekend, I'd like to earn a few achievements that have been escaping me for a while now. I'd like to start off with Halo: Reach. Great game, tons of fun, a bunch of people have it. Would you like to join me? You can add my gamertag: mrmobado. I'll be online anytime between this Friday, 8/17 to Sunday, 8/19. All of the achievements I need in this game are DLC specific. If you'd like to play with myself and whoever else joins (Kaleesh, Sonu), please have the Defiant Map Pack specifically. The other packs are fun and you should totally buy them too. If you'd like to play, just comment on this entry and let me know. The more people the better. I'd at least like to have a full team so I can unlock that dern 1-Flag achievement. You can totally earn some achievements too! I won't be a dictator over the party. If you want some achievements, we can help you out too. Oh, and if you have Borderlands, I'd like to play that this weekend to. And kill Crawmerax. So be ready for a bad time. Hey, just fyi, being the first person to comment in your own blog entry counts as a double post.-Nukaya Well, now I know! Anywho, what I commented was this: Please note that this game is M-rated and your parents have to be totally cool with you playing this game.
  11. I wish I was a little bit taller...

    I actually didn't know you lived in Minnesota! What city do you live in? ;) Thanks, it should be pretty fun.
  13. Would you be willing to buy some of the Vahki I have? I'm have all the books you're offering.

  15. If there's one thing you should know about me, it's that I absolutely love traveling to new places. Just this year, I've traveled to Boston, MA, Orlando, FL, Ann Arbor and Grand Rapids, MI. This Labor Day weekend I'm looking to add another city to my list: Minneapolis! Some of you may have paid very close attention and noticed that Nate (Than the Moa) recently moved to Minneapolis. Put two and two together. Yup, I'm going to visit Nate! We're gonna hang out and stuff. Probably hit up some local bars, visit the Mall of America (always wanted to visit), and probably play a little bit of Halo. Just gotta buy my tix.
  16. I can imagine if I were to ever go to BrickFair VA, I'd prefer to be called Watashi Wa/Wawa/etc. since we have a few Johns on the staff, especially by some of the staff that I don't know as well on a personal level. I mostly identify myself on the internet with my Xbox Live gamertag/handle/character mrmobado. Like you said, it's become a part of my identity. I'm also used to being called different among family and friend names because there's like 5 Johns in my family lol.
  17. Happy birthday, Andrew! I wish I were at BrickFair so I could celebrate with you in person. Don't get too crazy.

  20. Please don't post in topics that are inactive for more than 20 days in the B/S/T Forum. You can post your review of the trade in the dedicated review topic pinned at the top of this forum. :)Revival closed.
  21. Thanks man, we appreciate it. We went more for the symbolism of Takua rather than the aesthetic. He's the official Chronicler of all of the histories on Mata-Nui. It's only fitting that he grace the top of all of our own, personal records - or blogs as we like to call them in the 21st century.
