Weekly Update - 12/21


Black Six

658 views

Intro

Welcome back loyal readers (all five of you), except most of you can't read this right now. That's the unfortunate result of cyberterrorism. It seems Google's ad system was compromised and had the result of affecting a number of websites out there. We're hoping things get cleared up soon and we can bring things back online. We have to make sure nothing on the server was damaged before we do that though. So yeah, enjoy the rest of the show.

 

Updates

This week has been fairly slow, with the forums offline. 2008 sets have been spreading, and there have been sightings across the country, in Canada, and in Europe as well. If you want to find the new sets, get out there and look for them, they should show up soon enough. We should be wrapping up a small part of our 2007 set reviews tomorrow. We hope to start 2008 reviews as soon as our staff are able to pick them up. I'm sure things will pick up once the holiday season has ended.

 

Mailbag

With the new year coming up, what are your plans for BZPower in the year 2008?

 

Can we do a BZPCast (Audio and Video)? Would be fun to do live episodes and conventions. :P

We have a few plans for BZPower over the coming year. There's a lot of things we'd like to do. We'll just have to see if we have enough time to implement it. Expect to see more reviews, weekly updates and other coverage of Bionicle, as always.

 

The return of the BZPowercast is something I'd like to see. If there seems to be enough interest there's definitely a chance of it coming back.

 

What do you like the best about Bzpower?

How did you get into Bionicle?

What is your top three for RPG contest #8?

Wich element is your favorite?

Favorite Tv show, book and game?

The community is definitely the best part. We're fortunate enough to have some great members.

I got into Bionicle in 2001 with the initial ad campaign, like many other people.

There's a lot of great entries out there, things like The Gate, A World Gone Mad, A Midnight Grey, and A City Divided all look to be good competition.

I've always been partial to fire, for whatever reason.

Farscape, The Hobbit, and Halo, among others.

 

Want to see your questions answered? PM them to me and put 'Mailbag' in the subject line. I'll pick the few I like the best and answer them in the next update.

 

Conclusion

For those who celebrate, Christmas is only a few days away, I hope you get everything that's on your wishlist. Everyone else, I hope you enjoy some time off, be sure to spend it with your friends and family. We're doing our best to get the site back online, hopefully you'll get to read this before the holiday. Take care everyone!

About the holidays. I know in the past the forum has been turned offline on December 25th to give the staff a little day off. If the current problem was resolved only a day or two before December 25th, would the board go/remain offline for the holiday as it has before, or would it come back?

Who are those five loyal readers? :D I read every entry by you, I just don´t comment regularily.

I hope the problems have been fixed, I already wish you a merry and relaxing Christmas, B6! :)

Hey, I read your blog, Black Six. Lol. I love it. It's very interesting. It's a diamond in the rough. And a return of the Biocast would be something I'd like to see as well, though I believe it's more of a thing where like, you get a few hundred BZPower members to want it back and then it'll start up again.

 

Merry Christmas to you to, Black Six. I think I know your wishlist (world domination). Sadly, I believe the BoM have that about wrapped up for themselves, not you. :P

First I just wanted to say thank you for all the hard work you and the staff have done to get us back online. :)

I'm also extremely glad to find I'm not the only one who likes the Hobbit. :)

A Merry Christmas to you!
