Inter-Fraternity Council Tomato Fight Against Hunger was awesome. Not much beats throwing rotten tomatoes at people on a Saturday morning.
Also, I got a 5.1 Surround Sound Speaker set for my computer here. I am so happy
I'm going to start building more with system and less with bionicle. For now at least. I'm having quite a bit of fun building my Vic Viper-esque ship.
I think I'll actually buy some new system pieces (most of mine are at least 4-5 years old [some are 10, some are even older]).
I've got to go work on the tailfin and wings.

Recolors of some Rayg kit sprites. Recoloring is a pain. I don't want to even think about how painfull it is to actually sprite the things.
Also, does anyone know how I can zoom in on them and have them keep their quality (in Paint.NET)? Or should I just just use MS Paint for that?

Wow. I just noticed that not only are the forums are back, but also that it's perks week. So, expect to see my blog return. A little. I've got Football/Eagle Project/Summer Homework/Friends/etc so I doubt that I'm going to be horribly active, and if I am, it'll only be at night.
So, just a little update on me, I've been rather busy over this summer, what with my project, football/weightlifting, college visits (Kettering ftw!), hanging out with people, and of course, building. I'll get a link
Working on my setup so I can take better quality pics.
As it's still together, you can probably expect some better pics of it after my setup is better (I'm thinking of making a lightbox).

So, anyone built anything cool for it yet? I'm going to be lazy and hope that somebody feels like showing me their MOC or something instead of going and looking for one myself.
But yeah, if you think your entry's pretty spiffy, link me to it and such. I'll prolly comment if it's really cool. I'll prolly comment if it's not cool, too.

Well, I went job hunting today after dinner, and my last stop was a K-Mart. After I got my application, I decided to go buy a set. I would've bought one of the Phantoka, but I only had 7 bucks on me. Anyways, long story short, I bought Solek, built him (sans instructions (who needs those?)), took him apart, and revamped him. I'll probably take pics of him later, but I like how he looks. And I realized how much I love Mahri tubes.

For Your Right To Party! (Beastie Boys)
The Clio Ampetheater Reopedned! And what's even sweeter is that the whole venue is free for the summer! Granted, there aren't any bands that I know playing there, but that's okay, it's free entertainment.

So, I'm going to give a little mini-review of each MOC entered into my contest, talk about what I liked and did not like about them, and then talk about how I awarded them Bonus Points. Might as well start with first place after all (this is most likely going to be a tl;dr type entry, so if you want to skip to where I review your entry, feel free to do so):
Alchemyst's Robocop A-14
So, first things first, I do not like the lower legs at all. Usually I'm fond of this kind of leg, but there'
Just got a Co-op Job with Magna Seating. Going to start working on July 12th!
(though, this and Brickfair could be conflicts of interest. That is more than slightly disappointing. I'm pretty sure I'll be able to work around it)
First things first, thank you Black Six for the sweet mask and the Hydraxon set!
Second things second, it was totally awesome meeting everyone there! Hopefully I'll see y'all next year.
Third things third, I still have to weed through about 600 photos before I can upload them in good conscience to Brickshelf.
Fourth things fourth, Michigan needs to get some Chick-Fil-A's. Seriously.
Final things final, curse you for beating me by 6 votes, DV! (loljk)
I'm tired of it. Very, very tired. The link to the BBC Forum Guidelines. To all the Spammers, I suggest you read it, because I report what I think is spam. Speaking of which, how I classify Spam:
Off Topic Spam: Spam that is, you guessed it, off topic, irrelivant, and completely unneccessarry. It can comandeer a topic and drive it to the point of sheer mindless babel.
Generic Spam: Spam that can be applied to anything in general. Spam that someone can use by just popping into a topic, read
Well, thank you all for the reviews you all sent in, this was not an easy decision. But, a decision has been made. The new MOC Club Sub-Leader is:
~Ballom~.
So let us all congradulate Ballom on his promotion in the heirarchy.
So, congrats Ballom. I'll PM you later w/ all the info you'll need for your disscussion entry.
Also, I'll post the second challenge tomorrow.

Well, I know what I'll be doing over the summer. I need to get 9 MBs before I can get my Eagle rank. And two of them take like 3 months. I gotta get workin'

I'm thinking I should make some new blog graphics for my blog.
As I no longer use red, and they've gotten pretty boring (well, most of 'em).
So, I'm gonna be making some new graphics, maybe some new content blocks. If you have any suggestions for a content block, feel free to suggest it.
ALSO, please nominate someone for the Second Challenge.
