My ankle hurts D: But hey, Bricks Cascade. Woo and stuff. Also Inferna Firesword is an amazing person and don't afraid of anything. I can't wait to get my ring : D
So Microsoft released a new email service, based on their Outlook branding. It's similar in function (if not identical) to Hotmail, minus the UI. Oh also? Because it's new, you can register new email accounts. Through your default. I already registered a few. I might get more later, but let's not get too greedy here I should still review Office 13 : D
Alright, I'm really excited. In one more week, I will FINALLY have my own WP7. I've been waiting for it SINCE 2010. I'm pumped. Trivia: I once considered an Android device. I thought it was the perfect answer to Apple's dominance. And to a degree, it still is... if it wasn't so fragmented. So yeah, WP7. Yay me. Anything else I forgot? No. Okay. *walks away* .... *returns* OH RIGHT, MORE DEATH STAR PHOTO! Yeah, I mounted the dish. Yay me ^^
Back in early November 2011, Xccj and I discussed in detail the idea of building the island of Mata Nui in system brick. We debated many times over how we could do it, eventually deciding on how to do it and where to get the material. That's when I told my boss Dan Parker. On March 12th through the 16th, we finally build it. And you're all invited to help : D Basically, if you live in the Pacific Northwest, able to travel to Tacoma, and want to help out building a system-based island, plea
On the plus side, I finished the campaign already (2 days' worth of work) and I now have about 30 days of quests, free play and mithril bricks to find x_x Oh, and IE10 pre-release. It has spellcheck built in : O which is new FOR IE. I know you FF/Chrome/Safari/others had it first. Fortunately I never needed it but it's nice to have.
On the turning away
From the pale and downtrodden
And the words they say
Which we won't understand
"Don't accept that what's happening
Is just a case of others' suffering
Or you'll find that you're joining in
The turning away"
It's a sin that somehow
Light is changing to shadow
And casting it's shroud
Over all we have known
Unaware how the ranks have grown
Driven on by a heart of stone
We could find that we're all alone
In the dream of the proud
On the wings of the night

So, I can safely say that despite my best efforts, Google AdSense still found a way to find SOMETHING relevant to me, either through Facebook or basic Amazon searches. Regardless, it found something to advertise that I may have been interested in: Buying tickets to go to the EMP Museum in Seattle to see the Block by Block exhibit they have there. Sounds interesting! Now I will first start by saying by all means, if you're in the great Pacific Northwest, go see it. Like seriously, go. Why do I
I accept I tuned you in to a specific station on the Radio function. I also accept I put that music in you, Mr. Zune. But would you PLEASE do me a favor? Would you stop playing depressing music when I'm not feeling the best? D:
I just want to know, FROM GAMERS WHO MAY KNOW...
Halo 3, or ODST? Which should I get?
For the record, I have only played Halo on PC and the first level of Halo 2 on my brother's Xbox back in the day. I am as noobish to Halo as an Apple fanboy is to a Zune.
I'll never ever EVER watch that show again! ... Oh wait, I never did anyway 8D Anyway in all seriousness I'm feeling a ton better now, my chest doesn't hurt as badly, and I look forward to getting back to work tomorrow. What am I working on tomorrow, you may wonder? BORG. AND DEATH STAR. AND STUFF FOR A CLIENT NAMED MEECRO SAFT. I think we got that name wrong on the form. I guess we'll find out when the check comes in 8D But in all seriousness I was really sick D:
Man, this week. So, tomorrow at around 11:15 PM PDT I fly out towards Cincinnati, where I then wait for 3 hours at 6 AM local time (EDT) to 9 AM to catch a flight to Detroit. From there, I get to meet awesome people and attend a wedding the next day. Wootness to that. Meantime, since last Tuesday I was working on a megafig version of a wonderful character to build in Lego, that being Iron Man. The chest was a combination of the Mk III Arc Reactor core, plus the Mk VI styling and a hint of Mk
So, I have finished the story modes of both Single Player and Multiplayer.
I must commend the following players for assisting me in getting to the ending of multiplayer:
Erebus
Timboman (yes, he's still alive out there )
Tesseract (ditto on that part)
Erebus and I started it off, got to about part 2 and called it good, Timboman and I played til about part 4, then I replayed with ER, got him up to speed, then finished it all off with Timboman to the ending. I won't spoil any of it for
So yeah, finally got poked enough times to go make skins for the two sites. BS01's is the second winner from that old contest, and was made by ~MI~. The HS01 skin is one I had kicking around to begin with, and it was decided it was time to make it happen. Thoughts, everyone? 8D
I honestly got bored, and decided to copy Cholie outright, but with a more... Metro twist. Buddy of mine (he knows who he is) said I shouldn't post it. I disagree. What do you guys think? Also, if you can guess EVERY BLOCK'S MEANING, you win an eCookie.
Would love opinions. They'd be ready in time for Bricks Cascade. Also of note, both QR codes work even in this preview. They'd be two seperate designs by the way.
I dunno, you guys gave me good names, but I'm not digging... about 98% of it I liked Swert06, a lot of what Soran said, dun really like Swertsector01, silly Kyn , Tekulo's list is eh. I dunno, I'm very picky with branding. It's kinda why when I designed the TbP Group logo I looked at all aspects of it right down to the very pixel positioning. It wasn't easy. Basically I think SWERT06 will be an acceptable name. But I have an idea for the description that will make up for everybody else no
I am now the proud member of the Blue Lantern Corps, White Lantern Corps, and Indigo Tribe. Which side should I join next? I've got 6 to go (Green will be rather tricky to track down, so avoid it for now.)
Curse you, Niners. And you as well, Lions. At least we're not 4th place NFC. Thanks for that, Rams : D Oh well, 8-8 season beats 2-14, RIGHT INDY & STL? : D : D Alright, I'm not much for bandwagon hopping, but if I must I must... Packers or Saints for NFC, Ravens or Broncs for AFC. That's my choices.
Officially, I don't want it on BS01. So cut it out, guys
And I will admit to you all now, I'm looking into getting it... elsewhere <<
Just give me time, I'll have details later. Til then, chill out on it.
So awhile back, I posted I had collected all original 100 2001 Bionicle masks (aka, the ones from any 2001 set that was commercially available, minus the red Ruru). Of course, that's without the misprints and other sharp rarities such as a 14 karat gold Hau, but those are sadly going to be out of my reach for a good long while. Once I finished amassing this collection, I asked the million dollar question: How do I display it? Well, make a plaque like everyone else, of course! Wait, I ran out o
Good news everyone! Besides reading this post in the Professor's voice, you now have the opportunity to read about Swert's busy life IN THE SAME VOICE! Nah, kidding. Anyway, so my boss left for vacation last week, leaving me with a huge list of work to do. I already whittled said list down to two items, but they're big ones. I tackle that mess tomorrow. On Wed. I will be visited by two (hopefully) BZPower members, Dorek and GSR! We'll most likely hang out at the studio, go nab some lunch the
