Six years prior, early on a Sunday morning, the young boy that would soon be known as SPIRIT logged onto his computer. He had visited the BIONICLE fansite known as BZPower a few times to look for BIONICLE-related news and he decided that it was high time that he joined himself. With that, he clicked the button marked "Become a Member" and tried registering for an account name that he thought he would like to have: SPIRIT. Having not seen any other SPIRITs on the forums, it came as little surp
"Helloooooooo! Hola, velcomen, bienvenue, konichiwa, aloha, how you doin'?, yo, and in any language, welcome to LEGO Island!"
*nostalgic sniffle*
Ah, the good old days...
So I just figured out how to get the game working on my computer and oh the memories. It's actually a little startling how far graphics have come along since the 90s and laughable at how cutting edge this game once was. All the same, it's still loads of fun. Granted, I've lost some of my manoeuvring talent over th
So, I had been under the impression that LEGO cancelled my Club Magazine subscription as I haven't gotten a magazine in over a year. Turns out my dad has been throwing them away because he mixed up the Club Magazine with the LEGO Catalogue. :annoyed2:
I have done it. 100 000 years of events cobbled together into a coherent series of events. The BIONICLE Reference Centre's timeline is fully up to date! Have a look, let me know what you think, and please let me know if there are any mistakes.
And now, I embark on a new, top secret project for the Reference Team. All very hush-hush for now, but I'm pretty sure you'll like the end product. To my knowledge, nothing of this sort has been done before and I think it's about high time it has b
A PS3.
I also got LEGO Star Wars: The Complete Saga and Prince Caspian for it, but I'm hoping to get more games in the coming weeks, preferably ones that actually have Trophies enabled so that I can feel as though I've accomplished something while not actually having done anything at all. Any suggestions?
Some of you may have seen my BIONICLE: The Legend Reborn countdown and others might remember the one I made in anticipation of the release of Deathly Hallows. Well, now that I've got a template in place, I decided to make some for the new Harry Potter movie coming out July 17.

So Sisen and I thought we'd make our own versions of Katy Perry's I Kissed A Girl, only a Harry Potter version. Let us know which one you like best.
(Sisen's version).
My version is sung by a Dementor right after he's kissed Barty Crouch junior at the end of the fourth book, sucking out his soul.
----------------------------------
This was always the way Fudge planned
It's his intention
Crouch was so pale and not tanned
Lost his discretion
It is what, I'm used to
Just wanna tas
So we lost just about six months there. Six months, though... sound familiar? That's right, the Time Slip. So look carefully, guys. There could be Av-Matoran in your midst!
Anyway, I didn't lose too much. Sure, the BIONICLE In Under 1:30 topic filled with people telling me how awesome I am was deleted, but there's a new version now. Also, praise the Great Spirit Makuta that I finished Wildfire on September 20th so that I didn't lose anything (all the same, I'm saving all my fanfics now)
Alas, another year has gone by and we have more or less survived our hazardous journey.
"A journey to where?" you ask.
"Not where," I chide you. "When."
"What madness is this?" you cry.
"MADNESS?!" I reply. "THIS IS DAYLIGHT SAVINGS TIME!"
Get out your Vahi, kids. It's time to travel one hour into the future for Daylight Savings Time! (Goodbye, my extra sleep. ) Sadly, the board's automatic DST update doesn't work for me so I had to change it manually. Make sure you check th
So in case you haven't seen it yet and for posterity's sake, here it is:
I wish Greg would bump off Norik so I could say,
"Alas, poor Norik! I knew him well..."
Well, that's just too good a pun to waste, so I'm considering sending the following message to Greg to see what he can do about it.
Dear Greg,
It would really mean a lot to me if you were to have Norik killed in the storyline. Sure he's a popular character, but I think that my clever pun is far more important than his imagi
1) Did you see Heroes last night? Well, I have the same headphones as Hiro.
2) Have you ever seen Family First on the Canadian Family Channel? Well, I know the female host.
That's right, those two random connections to television make me cooler than you. B)
Got bored. Got an idea. Wrote a story.
It's supposed to fit within what's already been established for BZ-Nui. I dunno... I have mixed feelings about it since I don't think it's my best work. Check it out if you want, so that maybe you can get an idea of how to write a much better one yourself.
Not too much activity on the last follow up, but oh well. I'll just leave post-counts and proto alone for now unless someone gets some really good ideas. Now, however, onto the fun part.
So we've seen the map, we have a general idea of how things work, now let's get a better picture of each of the individual forums. To recap, the forums have been given their elements for the following reasons:
Fire: Bionicle Collectibles -- Ta-Matoran make masks.
Fire: LEGO Bionicle Sets -- Ta-Matora
» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «Okay, at the end of Brother in Arms 7, Mazeka and Vultraz are transported to a strange land.
Here, the trees are banded with gold, massive beasts are disguised as lakes, and the roles of Toa and Matoran have been reversed.
Then it hit me.
They aren't in Spherus Magna.
They're actually in...

Think about it! In Soviet Russia, you do not protect Matoran, Matoran prote
Okay, this was a doozy. Here's what I've come up with, let me know your thoughts and whether you're strictly opposed to anything that's been decided here:
1) What are members?
Most people liked my suggestion, but not so much the Makuta thing. To justify, what I meant was that they get the 42 Kraata powers and are charged with making sure the universe runs smoothly. If you still don't like it, then how about admins get to have Exo-Toa suits?
2) How does BIONICLESector01 work?
Looks
Okay, so checked the results and it looks like everything's staying the way it is.
Onto the next round of questions!
1) What are members?
(Go wild on this one, but here's an idea to get you started; let me know whether or not you like it.)
Hapori Tohu – Great Spirit
Admins – Makuta (Good Makuta that haven't banished their light and don't plan to take over the world)
Global Moderators – Adaptive Armour Toa Nuva
Forum Leaders – Toa Nuva
Forum Assistants – Regular Toa

Okay, the survey's been out for a week, so let's see what people want.
1) Is having the BIONICLE logo as the map with each forum section being an island a good idea? If not, what would be better?
Most people seemed to like the map, although Great Being #1 has proposed an alternative (see below).
2) Do you agree with the island names? If not, what are some better ones you can think of?
Once again, no one had any major qualms with these. Terakk, though, has suggested some of his own (
Okay, so the general consensus seems to be that Project BZ Nui is a good idea. So here are a few preliminary questions concerning what's been established so far (try to be as helpful as possible in your answers).
1) Is having the BIONICLE logo as the map with each forum section being an island a good idea? If not, what would be better?
2) Do you agree with the island names? If not, what are some better ones you can think of?
3) Do you agree with the elemental designations of the foru
So remember that mysterious project I mentioned that I needed Flash to begin. Well, I've got Flash again and I have a preview ready for you:
LINK (Yes, I'm aware some of the words jump. I'm too lazy to fix those, so just live with it for now.)
Now before you go using the emoticon, allow me to explain. Throughout the ages, the rough concept of a BIONICLE-like version of BZP has been tossed about from time to time. Epics have been written, comics have been sprited... But I have a vision
Okay, I'm not exactly going to say how, but I've come across a sneak preview of the next part of Destiny War. This takes place right after Axonn and Brutaka fall into the green liquid and leads right into the next part of their mission.
Here it is.
Okay, so sometimes I'm pretty bad with updating my Message of the Fortnight, but the last I updated this current one was about six weeks ago. Well, the thing about that is that I'm currently in a period of transition with my Flash. I've ordered a copy of Flash CS4 (the latest version) and it's supposed to arrive at the end of October, but until such time, I'm afraid things are at a bit of a standstill. As for my old version of Flash, that's living on a virus-ridden computer several kilometres
Don't pull the fire alarm at 2:00 AM, for starters. :angry:
So for those of you who don't know, I started university this fall and am now living on residence. So far, it's been a lot of fun meeting new people and getting accustomed to the campus. What hasn't been fun was last night where someone thought that it would be funny to pull the fire alarm when everyone was asleep. We all got up, got some sweaters on, and headed outside into the cold for twenty minutes while firefighters arrived.
