>>>>> Official Greg Dialogue <<<<<, For answers from your GregF PMs Options

i have a question about this topic. is this supposed to be jsut sharing tidbits we got from greg or disscussing things greg said?

[Dorek]

Both. You share your answers from Greg, and you are allowed to comment on other peoples answers, but when it threatens to turn into a full fledged debate, there are official topics to put it in.

ok. i jsut noticed very few people were disscussing stuff about what people thought of what greg said not talking about wtuff they found out from greg. i don't like it when people go off topic and i try to get them back on topic (hint hint proto drop people! )

1.How did Teridax get to know location of Voya Nui?

1) Teridax knows a lot of things

But older fans could have been from the Slizer Era (like me) and are therefore excited to see jungle again.

yES!!! Very much so! I, for one, am positively thrilled to see that the presence of jungle is returned. I also like the general feel of this upcoming year VERY much like 2001. The battle game sounds neat, too-another aspect of 01 that Bionicle has lacked for a time. Disk launchers were about the last sport-type thing we saw until now...

Actually, let's face the facts:

*Bionicle has been made overly simple; six tribes again, and the small characters are just for an "impulse buy"

*The new game is a shootout game that "encourages social play"

*There will be twice as many "young readers'" books as chapter books

New Bionicle is designed for little children.

Sigh... Attempt to disprove the MU = Mata Nui theory failed... He didn't even really answer my question though...

I'm hoping you should be able to answer this, since I'm sure it has been before, and if it hasn't I might be remembering something similar. If you can't answer it, that's OK.

When was Mata-Nui (Being) created in relation to the Matoran Universe being created? Before, after, or around the same time?

Thanks in advance!

Well, he did not first awaken until after the universe already existed

I asked him again whether or not he could answer it, but he hasn't gotten back to me yet.

Here's something to think about though: If Mata Nui was the MU, don't you find it strange that Metru Nui was constructed in almost exactly the same shape as the island Mata Nui would one day be (given he was standing before, and fell into the Endless Ocean)?

ok, thanx guys! I hope Greg gets it this time!
And did anyone see the new video?

I did, it was shorter then I expected it to be though.

Well, were gonna get a few more.

Yeah it was a little short for a the wait and anticipation! But still cool, plus it was leading up to this and now we know what to expect of the others! I think the next one will be longer!

Alright, I'm not sure if you've gotten this or not, but I sent it yesterday: Can you answer to when Mata Nui was created?

And one more:
Does Mata Nui and Metru Nui having the same shape have any storyline significance?

1) 100,000 years ago
2) Yes

Haha! Unless Greg mistook my question for when he was created for when he woke up, I have disproved the MU = Mata Nui theory. To quote BS01:

100,000+ Years Ago

* The Great Beings begin creation of Matoran universe.

Number 2 is sort of interesting though.

Hi, in light of the recent release of the Watchmen movie trailer at The Dark Knight, I purchased the graphic novel Watchmen. I read it in a very short amount of time because i thought it was really good. If you have read the book, or comics and you liked it i want to ask a few questions relating to the ending. If you haven't read it and you want to i don't want to spoil the ending so i'll put the questions in a spoiler tag.

» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «

1) At the end when the huge creature is teleported to New York City everything in its place in the area it arrives is displaced and everything around it explodes and the creature itself dies. If a Makuta, say Krika becomes intangible and becomes tangible in an opponent would it act the same way?

2) If yes then would Krika or another Makuta die, or because they are made of energy they do not have molecules so they won't die?

3) If Krika or another Makuta doesn't die will their armor desintegrate or be damaged.

(this also applies to someone wearing the mask of Quick Travel, or Botar.)

4) Can you wait for the movie because i can't?

Thanks in advance.

I read the book years ago, hated the ending, so may or may not go see the movie.

1) It would work the same way that the Vision's powers work in the Avengers. If he turns intangible and goes the slightest bit tangible, he disrupts the substance of the other being.
2) They would die, yes

The ending was a big let down, but the book itself was great, not including the ending. That'd be cool if a makuta sacraficed itself in order to do damage to the enemy.

[Darth Gonwa]

The only Makuta that I could see ever doing that is Krika, who seems to have a softer side that other Makuta lack. The Makuta curse doesn't seem to apply as much to him as the others.

[Aqua Iruini]

Some info I just got back from Greg.

I'm sorry to bother you again, especially on the same subject as before, but I didn't think of these questions untill after I had sent the last lot.

1a) Was Jerbraz invisible prior to collecting information for the atlas?
1b) If yes, did Jerbraz collect the information for the atlas before or after hiring Mazeka?
2a) Is Nektann one of Skakdi leaders who told the stories of Irnakk?
2b) I don't know if you've been following the S&T contest, but one of the winners has now been decided. It's called The Devastator. Is the Skakdi warlord who ordered it Nektann, knowing his past involving Xian weapons?
2c) If not, is this warlord one of Skakdi leaders who told stories of Irnakk?

Thanks!

1A) Yes
1b) After -- the Atlas is relatively new and up to date information. Mazeka was hired five years ago.
2a) He might have been, it's a very popular legend on Zakaz
2b) Does it say it was him in the entry? There are a lot of warlords.
2c) See answer to 2a -- a lot of people, warlords and not, tell that story. It's like a campfire ghost tale.

I feel kinda stupid about the Skakdi warlord ones now. ¬_¬

Aqua I

[Takuamaster]

Since when was the contest over?

[coinchaos29]

Just one question,


Does the 2009 universe/area/place exist, as well as where it is right now, in the DM dimension?


I can't answer this



I thought I was getting something there, oh well.

Wouldn't it take a little while to create something as big as Mata Nui? 100,000+ could easily be 100,001, anyways. It could be a nine-month gestation period for all we know.

Hello again Greg.

Just some questions,

1)Can sidorak's species change their body color?

2)What element would you consider Nektann?

3)Is the new CGI movie canon?

4)Do you like answering questions on BZP?

Thanks again for your time answering these questions.

1) No
2) Haven't thought about it
3) All CGI movies on BIONICLE.com are canon
4) If I didn't, would I be here?

Meh, just some stuff.

I'm hoping you should be able to answer this, since I'm sure it has been before, and if it hasn't I might be remembering something similar. If you can't answer it, that's OK.

Note how Greg said when Mata Nui was created, or finished, as opposed to the BS01 entry that same when the great beings begin the creation of Mata Nui. This still fits perfectly well into the MN=MU theory, because the creation of Mata Nui took a long time (up until he was awoken).

[Toa Ejty]

Hi Greg, I just saw the new minimovie in which the Nuva reach the Codrex and insert the keystone into it. This keystone, however, looks a lot different that the comic one, so is it possible for you to say which one is canon?

Comic :



Minimovie



Thanks in advance.

My info was that the keystones would fit into the image of a humanoid on the Codrex, so that is what I went with. In a pinch, give the edge to the web content.

... so you guys are saying that since Greg said that Mata Nui was created 100,000 years ago and the MU was created 100,000+ years ago, that disproves the theory? Do you really think Mata Nui was created EXACTLY 100,000 years ago? I'm pretty sure that in both cases, the real number is ~100,000 (approximately 100k) years ago. In which case it heavily supports the theory, not disproves it. Anti-MN=MU members seem to be grasping for straws

BTW where is the new video?
Edit: Thanks, I found it.

What we don't know is how long it took to create him. For all we know, he could have been brought into being almost instantly. Also, the BS01 entry doesn't say when Mata Nui was finished or started being made, only when he was awakened. I'm still open that MN might = MU, but given the facts, it's not entirely impossible that MN =/= MU.

I'm hoping you should be able to answer this, since I'm sure it has been before, and if it hasn't I might be remembering something similar. If you can't answer it, that's OK.

Well of course the MU and MN were made at nearly the same time... they need each other to live. (Well, Sorta) As we know, Tren Krom took over the MU while MN was being created. Of course this doesn't naturaully disprove the theory Mata Nui is the MU, but it certainly makes it uncertain. MN is not the MU, because a picture of MN will be in the November Brickmaster, but a picture of the MU will only be in the Polish Guidebook. If they're the same, Greg could have easily said that Mata Nui was in the Polish Guidebook, or even that The MU was in the November Brickmaster. For that matter, why even tell us that the Matoran Universe Picture will only be in the Polish Guidebook? Greg doesn't lie very often, and definately not something as big as this. He has answered questions like "Will there be a map of the MU anywhere else besides the Polish Guidebook?" and all of their answers have been no. He didn't even say Can't Answer it, he just said No. Again, Greg wouldn't lie about something this big.

There is a difference between a map of a person's insides, and a picture of a person. Greg didn't say that Mata nui wasn't in the polish guide book (it probably is as well), but he was only telling us about the map of the islands and continents that would be there. The Brickmaster is showing Mata-nui from the outside, so not a map of the MU.

Plus, Greg doesn't usually lie, but he frequently avoids the question.

Look, it's like a baby- it's alive, but not active, for a short while. Before it's born, it's still alive, no? This is Mata Nui's situation.

So what, besides Mata Nui, none of the other domes stick out. He has said numerous times that the island of Mata Nui is the only object in the endless ocean. So only his face is showing? Mata Nui is not 1,000,000 feet across. If it did show him from above, it would only show that island, and it wouldn't actualy be Mata Nui. Either it wold show the entire MU as Mata Nui, or just the island of Mata Nui. If the former, then my post above dictates, if the latter, it wouldn't only show the island of Mata Nui. If it shows it without the water, revealing the other domes, that could work. Although I very much doubt he is just a blob of protodermis (Which in reality is what all the domes would look like together)

Why do people keep trying to prove or disprove the "Mata-Nui is MU" theory through pm's?
Greg is never going to flat out reject or admit the theory so there's no point in asking.

We're gonna know in November anyway (the picture of Mata Nui and map in the guidebook)

Mirror Lesovikk, We may not know, based on the pic, as it may be MN's Humanoid form, and, the domes could be inside him like organs (that's what the theory says). But, I agree with you, and we will know even sooner than November, as Bionicle Legends #11 comes out in october!!

[Toah Adam]

Breaking away from the Mata Nui=Matoran Universe discussion there, I got a couple of interesting answers from Greg mostly involving light and shadow which may or may not be well known by now; this topic's been notoriously difficult to search for specifics before, so I suppose there's no harm in sharing what I found out.

Q: If six Toa (let's say of Fire, Water, Ice, Air, Stone and Earth) were to create a Toa Seal, would any other six Toa (of Lightning, Sonics, Gravity, Iron, Magnetism and Plant-Life, for example) be able to undo the seal or does it have to be undone by the same six elements that it was created with?
A: Same elements are needed.

Q: If a Toa (for example, a Toa of Fire) were to be partially drained of their light by a Shadow Leech and the psychological barrier that stopped the Toa from recovering his light remained intact, if he continued to use up his own fire energy until there was none of it left, would he then become a Toa of Shadow fully and no longer be a Toa of Fire and Shadow?
A: Good question. Answer's no, he would most likely have access to fire only. Takanuva can control shadow as well because he was already controlling light, and the two are similar (two sides of the same coin). But using up fire is not the same as using the light that is in you, which is what Takanuva taps into.

Q: If any Toa were to be partially drained of their light (as Takanuva was) and the barrier remained intact, if their personality was affected by this drain would that be a side affect of the means in which they gained their shadow element (Shadow Leech, Avsa, etc) rather than the actual element itself as the BS01 wiki states that, originally, shadow had no moral connections and was no more good or evil than any other element?
A: Light is your "good" side if you will -- if you have less of it, you will be less "good".

My thoughts: Ah, so not only is light an element; but it can also be considered to be the positive aspects of any being's...er...being in that respect.

Q: If Mata Nui were to exact vengeance upon the Brotherhood of Makuta upon awakening, as Makuta saw in Karzahni's vision in Into the Darkness, would Miserix be spared as he had opposed Teridax's plan or has Teridak condemned his species as a whole?
A: No. Think about it -- if you have termites in your house, when you call the exterminator, do you worry if maybe one termite had a bad stomach and never ate part of your house? Or do you kill all of them?

My thoughts: While I'm not familiar with termites, the idea of an tiny little Miserix is adorable.

Q: It's said, again on the BS01 wiki, that the Makuta once had a small amount of light within them and that that light was only forced out of them after they made the decision to go against Mata Nui; does this mean that Miserix still has some light left in him?
A: No, all Makuta, for one reason or another, rejected the light that was in them.

Q: Now that the element of shadow is seen as evil because of the Brotherhood's corruption, even if Miserix were to do some heroic deeds during his hunt for Teridax (i.e. save the odd Matoran village), would those he saved only consider his power to be evil and his character a hero or would he still be seen as evil as a whole, regardless, because of his element?
A: Basically, put it this way -- let's say a neo-Nazi came to your town and circumstances led him to save a child from a runaway bus. Would you now consider him a good neo-Nazi -- or still consider him evil because he IS a neo-Nazi?

~Adam

[Takuamaster]

Uh, guys, you probably should start a new topic or just get back to this topic's subject.
Anyways, just a small Vican question.

Hey Greg, just a question about Vican.

On BS01 it says Vican is from a lake in the center of the Southern Continent.
My first question is, was there a lake where Mahri Nui was (Voya Nui Bay) on Voya Nui when it was on the continent?
And if that is true, then is Vican from that lake, or one nearby?

Thanks,

No. Remember, some of the land on Voya Nui was added on as a result of lava flowing during the years it was floating on the ocean, so it is not the same shape in 2006 story as it was on the continent.

Hello Mr. Farshtey I have one question:

1. In the story it said that Av-Matoran have a higher rate of becoming Toa than do others. (said in Shadows in the Sky) How is that when only one Toa of Light exists while there have been thousands of others of the other elements? If anything isn't it less likely an Av-Matoran will become a Toa.

Okay, but how do you know that in 1000 years there might not be 100 Toa of Light, and in 5000 years, 500 Toa of Light? More likely to become Toa does not mean "more likely today" -- it means more likely overall, which encompasses the future too.

How do they figure that when the past shows only one? Did they use a Mask of Clairvoyance? But past record shows many others.

Because the Great Beings made them to have a higher possibility of becoming Toa, and since the Makuta have Tren Krom's knowledge of the workings of the universe, they know that.

[Katani the joker]

Hey Greg. I was wondering...

1. Is the source of the "incredible" power of the vehicles such as Jetrax's the same as that of the lightstones?
2. If so, what is it? Is it Mata Nui's life force?
3. If not, does it have anything to do with 2009?
4. If so, what?

Thanks.

~Katani.


1) Yes
2) Can't answer it
3) No

I think this may already be known, but I found it interesting. And the "Can't answer it" is also interesting.

~Katani.

1. Could the Codrex transport anyone in it to another place (maybe another universe?)

2. Could the energy storm help?

3. Could the Codrex tell where Mata Nui is?

4. Can Mata Nui change his size?

5. How large is the Codrex?

Thanks!

1) No
2) No
3) No
4) No
5) Very large

Why so negative?
Ahh, so Mata Nui can't change his size. Hmmm. And could the Codrex hold Mata Nui. Heh heh.

[Darth Gonwa]

Sorry if these questions are bothering you, but I just need clarification on number 1. I should have said: Can you answer to when Mata Nui was created in relation to the MU? On the BS01 Wiki Timeline, it says Great Beings began creating the MU 100,000+ years ago, and Mata Nui was awakened 100,000 years ago. Would this mean Mata Nui was created after the MU?

Means his creation was not finished until after the MU existed.

Follow up to my questions before... Seems to me like Greg is sneaking his way around a direct answer.

[~Takadox~]

Sorry if you already got this, but I wasn't sure if you did. Anyways:

I was wondering, are there any female OoMN members besides Helryx?

Thanks for your time.

The Olmak that Taka dropped into interdemensional space

Nope

Randomly had a thought, this crushed it

I sent these to Greg ages ago, and never posted them here.

Hi, Greg!
I just have one question this time.
Can a Rahkshi be affected by Hordika venom?
Thanks in advance,
-Gravitic Ghost Rider.

A Rahkshi is just a suit of armor, so no. The kraata inside could be affected, though, if it was attacked directly

Sorry to keep bothering you , Greg.
I need one last question answered.
1a. Could you turn a Kraata Hordika into a Rahkshi?
1b. If so, would the rahkshi be different from a normal Rahkshi?
1c. If yes to 1b, in what way(s) would it be different?
Again, sorry to bug you, I just find the concept of Kraata/Rahkshi affected by Hordika venom extremely interesting.
-GGR

No, for the same reason you can't change a Toa Hordika into a Turaga. Once it's infected by venom, it's not the same creature anymore

[Pirakalord693]

Why has everyone dropped the "Mata Nui is in the location Teridax is" theory in place of the "MN/MU" theory? I personally would go with the former; it's legendary, is heavily guarded, and is larger than even Teridax had thought possible.

Hi there Greg. Over on BS01, there's been some debate over the canonization of the Toa Mangai Nihu and Motara. You gave your approval to the Nihu-Motara Energy Siphon Blade in a PM, and it recently won the Art: Handrawn category. In the description, it refered to a Toa Mangai of Water, Nihu, and a Toa Mangai of Stone, Motara. Now that it has won, are they officially canon? I wouldn't ask, but it needs to be in the OGD for everybody to accept it.

Thank you for your time.

No, they're not. I told Electric Turahk when he PM'd me that I can approve the entry, but not the names. I don't want to be constantly reusing 2001 location names, and two, if they named every geographic feature after a Mangai, why is nothing named Lhikan? Makes no sense.

None of the people who PMed him bothered to post it here, so I figured I would. I wonder how many votes he would have gotten if they hadn't been part of the entry...


Drink up, me 'earties, yo ho!
