Well guys, the last round seemed... um... rather unanimous in who the winner was, so I decided to move on to round two before the deadline (which was Monday). But before I do so, please join me in a round of applause for the winner of round one!
Roa McToa!!!
*Round of applause*
Congrats Roa!
If any of you (especially our duelists) would rather us finish the voting, then please say so. I also think that it would be good to start the round just before the weekend, so that you guys can hav

The member selection poll for the MoCist Duels contest is now up! Our contestants are:
Arpy
Dr. Keerahk
Darth Vader
Bundalings the Bunny
Roa McToa
ToM Dracone
What?
I decided to go ahead and post the poll, even though the deadline is not until tonight, due to the fact that I believe that everyone has entered that wanted to, and so... yeah, I posted up the poll. If someone wants to enter last minute, then that's fine.
I further descided to place What? on the list even though he did
Well guys, I have been having problems with majhost.com lately. The pictures would not show up in the forums and/or blogs. The funny thing about it though, is that there were a few that would. I myself have a Mac laptop. I tried it downstairs on our family Mac, and it still didn't work there. Then I tried it on the older family PC, and for somereason, it worked perfectly fine. Thus, I can safely conclude that it has something to do with Macs, or rather Maj's incompatability with them. Just thoug
Rocks!
Seriously. Don't believe me? Head over to Apple's website and check it out. The new iPhone G3 is twice as fast as its predecessor, is thinner, and on top of that, the price has been cut in half. This new edition is starting at 8 Gigabytes for $200 bucks. Wowee. Don't forget that the iPhone is a full iPod (music and movie playing gadget), a web browser (it can do e-mail too, and has full wireless technology), and (of course) it's a phone. Sweetness. I would really like to get one eventu
... according to MoCing level, what would you say if I asked you to rate me from 1 - 5? I would have to say... 3.5.
BTW, I believe that I have decided upon the rules for the blog contest, and the starter blog entry should be up earlier on in the week!
~GBG~
Ok guys, I have gotten alot of good feedback on this contest proposal (see blog entry before this one), and thus I believe that I shall go through with it. However, there are still a few things that need to be smoothed over/decided upon:
~ The MoCing period. The options:
a - 24 hrs
b - 48 hrs
c. - 72 hrs
~ Who can enter. The options:
a - Only members that have come in 1st, 2nd, or 3rd place in a BBCC; or members that have won a LEGO Mag Challeng
Hey everyone! I have a hankering to start up a blog contest. I have actually had the idea for this type of contest for a while now, but I didn't have a blog to place it in at that time. But know, I do! So, what is this idea that I've got? Here we go:
BZPower MoCist Duels!!!
So, what exactly would these be? Simply put, they would be a one on one building duel between two of the better MoCists here on BZPower. The contest would work alot like the BBC contests, except that they would be betwe
What's up with Majhost.com? I can't get on it, and none of the pics from the site are loading here on BZPower. I would like to upload my navigator images, but I can't at the moment. Does anyone know? I hope that they come up soon, seeing as my blog contest will start next week (if maj still isn't working, I probably won't start it then). Are there any other image uploading websites out there?

I have noticed that quite a few of the forum leaders/assistants have changed their names. As such, I am getting a wee bit confused. Could someone clear me up a bit?

Hey guys! I just thought that I would run down a list of current events and/or things to do around here:
- Enter Bone's Blog contest (I have begun on the entry, and yessss..... I am liking the idea very much)
- Enter S&T contest #4 (I have a few ideas bouncing around)
- Make a navigator block for my blog (any suggestions?)
- Finish and post my Indiana Jones film review in my blog (I went to see it, and I will tell you right now, it was alot better than I was expecting, and I would high
Greetings BZPower members! I am happy to present to you my first real blog entry. I am going to use this entry to introduce myself.
Well, to start off, my name is Joshua. I would give you my last name, but I have been advised not to do so. I am sure that you could figure it out if you really wanted to though. Anyway, I am 15 years old, and I shall be 16 in August (driving! yippes!). I am a rather tall (six feet and just under 3 inches) skinny boy that has a thick carpet of (short) brown hair
Made you look!
jk. But on a serious note, I have some thoughts on the recent happenings around here.
I hope to write up a good blog entry here sometime in the near future...
Strike that. First of all, it sounds noobish.
Secondly, I don't have the time to write a big blog entry nor to I want to get mixed up in this business.

Anyway, it's looking as if DV and Roa and going to have a match coming up! We shall see... In the mean time, I would like to thank all of you who have participated in this blog contest so
Ok, I'm about fed up with MoCing at the moment. I've used most of my good pieces and I'm running short on small technic connector pieces (specifically the (+O+) ones). Gah, I'm hitting a serious block for the arms. I think I may have something going, but we'll see. I love the rest of the MoC, but the tough part will be fitting in the arm's style with the rest of it...
For those of you who do, prayers for inspiration would be wonderful.
~GBG~
... for the second half of the semis and all of the finals, which will make it all the more interesting when I get back to see the results!
Where will I be? Well, I'm leaving on a mission trip tomorrow morning with my youth group, and I won't be back until Friday afternoon. It's actually just to the downtown area of my city, but it's gonna be great none-the-less. We will mostly be doing manual labor stuff along the lines of repairing houses (a house actually, I think), among other things.
I just wanted to remind you guys to vote in the final round of the MoCist Duels Contest. Roa and DV are tied, and we still need someone to break that tie! The voting shall continue throughout the rest of the day as well as all of tomorrow. The final Duel results shall hopefully be posted up Saturday morning.

*Warning: possible minor spoilers*
Yeah, I know that "normal" isn't all that impressive, but I still beat it. I'll probably go back next summer and try it on Hypermode difficulty (which I hear is ridiculously hard). The final boss battles were ok; I liked the dark Samus fight much better than the Aurora Unit 313 battle. The AU just seemed to simple in concept (it stayed in once spot while it spit Dark Echo Samus' at
