I'm broken. Let's try this.
I am an adult. This is going to be the blog of an adult. Fair warning. I can, and I will talk about staying up all night at friend's apartments just to talk about life and politics and religion and saving our cash one dollar at a time to make a career for ourselves. It happens. You'll all get there sometime, and the adventure is going to be incredibly unique and mind-numbingly dull at the same time. Just do me a favor, and try to figure things out for yourselves
Man, apparantly people despise/hate the staff but I don't think I ever even get an honorable mention when it comes to enforcing my will without any regard for the rules, obtusely breaking them even as I enforce them upon others. Maybe I can fix this soon. Would you guys promise to be afraid then?
Now that we've started up BZPStuck, I'm working pretty excitedly on making some cool content for you guys, but I wonder, what do you guys really think so far? Like, what do you want or hope will happen with this and what do you want to see? Also, what is it you would really hate seeing? Let me know.
Wow, Smeag sure has made a splash on the scene with his entry into BZPStuck! As the first of many characters to come let's welcome him and secretly hope he stops making so many jokes about musicians I don't know so I don't feel so left out! Just kidding, the more obscure the better. He wouldn't have it any other way. We'll probably be seeing one or two more new characters before we get back to Ray in any serious fashion, but once we do you better believe stuff is going to be kicked into high g
Alright, so I'll just give this a good old ramble:
Brickfair started with Pat coming over to my house, because we had elected to take the bus together this year. Pat, for those not in the know, is our own Darth Vader, and is incredibly awesome in real life. I know you guys like hating on him for his reviews, but hey, somebody has to tell the truth. So anyway we hung out and went to see Inception because he had not yet seen it.
Okay quick Inception break: This movie is just one great film.
So I'm supposed to be designing a t-shirt right now but you better believe I'm chatting it up with some girl who gave me her number today instead.
Rayg be pimpin all around this here blog yo!
So there we go, our first week was a rousing success I would like to think. Either the critics are being silent or everyone is enjoying it, which is a good thing. Hopefully as this continues more of BZP will be getting involved and we can bring some life back to GD and the forums in general. Anyway, although it's not the most technically impressive thing our first real flash also got posted, with some major props to Ryan Bratton, a non-BZP friend of a friend who provided the customized sweet t
Hey, so you know that thing on the internet where cartoon characters answer questions sometimes and everyone has a lot of fun? What if I did something like that with the cast of BZPStuck (and I mean the full cast, not just who has been introduced so far.) I guess what I'm asking is, how much fun on a scale of 1-10 would this be for you guys. And I mean like, you guys the real members not just the people helping me out, much as I love you guys. Also I mean questions about BZP and how stupid t
Background: I'm a Design Student at the University of Central Oklahoma. A good one. There can't be modesty in that kind of industry; selling yourself is half the battle.
That's what I'd like to talk about. I've got a future post detailing exactly how you can take good design and turn it into great design. It's about knowing why you do what you do, and being able to explain it coherently. Selling yourself.
The Industry of Design is different from art; it's not about expressing yourself, it
Holy cow, almost a month without an update? That can't be right. It is right. What the heck were we even doing?? Well, sadly there was some unfortunate occurrences (and some fortunate ones. I scored an internship with a local design firm!) that involved the sort of sad things that happen to friends sometimes. As a general reminder, always remember that you are loved. Yes, you. Everyone has friends and family, someone who cares about them and it may not even be the ones you suspect - sometime
^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 expect
Seriously though come Monday I'm going to be bending rules to my whim like CERAZY I'm telling you guys. Bunker down NOW it's gonna be a storm and nobody will be left standing.
I really love the Galaxy Squad sets. I just have a little one but if past behavior is any indication I may be getting all of the darn things by the end of this. Incidentally anyone want to trade some Bionicle for theirs? Haha.
Seriously I did NOT think people would care this much about it! Sorry about the black pixel! I'd fix it but bossman six is the only one with the ability to reupload the forum skin images.
If you haven't seen the announcement I've always had a love/hate relationship with april fools. The entire point is to make people truly believe something has taken place, which I find incredibly fun - yet it's become such a commonly attempted thing that very few people do it right. They just take a sledgehammer to an operation that requires the subtle cut of a surgical blade. For example, everyone has grown wary to the ordinary "big announcement" coming out on april 1st. Oh look! Google has s
So I don't know if anyone actually wants to do this, but never let it be said that I require the approval of others to make my ideas reality. So ask any of these nerds things. Pretty much everyone's gonna know who everyone is at this point For reference, the list: IrritableRevenant: Ray: Me (??)

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.
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!
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 "tomor
Holy cow, it's finally done. That definitely went like three days over what I planned for it, but man it feels good to be able to see the finished product. If you guys haven't seen it, please go check out the comic thread to see the capstone for my beginning arc. Now we get to the fun part, where our next character makes an appearance and we start really exploring the dynamics between characters. Stay tuned folks - we're just getting started.
