BrickCon's sounds like it's gonna ROCK! Free BrickArms, famous LEGO builders, amazing creations and... I'm not going.
Luckily, I have something to distract myself from the disappointment of not attending this three-day festival of love, art and plastic--namely the Hardly Strictly Bluegrass Festival in San Francisco featuring Robert Plant and Elvis Costello (among many others.)
Note: The deadline will extend until there are at least three entries. There are currently two.
In this contest, the theme is to create a Great Being--or at least what you imagine a Great Being to look like.
1: Non-LEGO parts, painted parts and cut parts are not allowed.
2: Your entry must be in by September 20, 2008 at 12:00 PM PST.

5: It can be a rider and steed.
1st prize will be a member shrine
1. Rahi Zaku. Hands-down the most influential Bionicle artist of all time. Without the RZ-man, where would any of us be? Morgan Biddinger brought the pseudo-chibi—or “hard empire”—style out of the BZP underground and sent it rocketing into the mainstream of Bionicle art. He also created countless kits, won a BBC in a landslide and influenced an entire generation of Bionicle artists—all in the span of only three years.
2. Nikira. Probably the most likely candidate for the “new RZ” title, Nikir
I have now officially gone from a 700-post loser to an 800-post wiener.
And my scanner's finally working. I'll have the contest prizes up soon, I promise.
Well, I'm not going to BrickCon.
Why?
For the mere reason that my mother--the root of all evil--thinks it's too expensive. Which it probably is, considering my father wants to tag along. She is also under the impression that nobody is coming, which is untrue, as most of the attendees are extremely famous Internet LEGO builders.
...and things are going fairly well. We have a new Geography teacher. The previous one, who I didn't have because I was in junior high, had a horrible reputation among the students. She's gone now, and the replacement is pretty well-received.
However, there are only four other freshmen besides me, one of whom is always absent. It's a very lonely situation. And because I'm retaking the first part of Algebra 1, the teacher torments me by giving me extra.
Well, Bionilists has finally found its resting place.
Right here.
The topic is dead, but new lists will be occasionally added. You can still add your own list by PMing me.
1: I think the picture above is proof enough.
2: Les Claypool would not claim to be Les Claypool.
3: Les Claypool is currently 44, not 75.
4: Les Claypool has stated that he cares as much about fishing as he does music. I do not see fishing in "Les's" interests.
5: Les Claypool was born on September 26, not August 11.
6: I saw Primus two nights ago. "Les" is still in the same spot.
Some people have asked why I didn't have a poll for MOCC #2. The reason is quite simple: have you ever seen a blog contest with a poll?
However, in my never-ending quest to be maniacally different from other blogs, the winners of the next MOCC will be decided in a poll on the blog.
Sorry for any inconveniences.
