Intro

Welcome back to what I'm sure you all look forward to on Friday evenings: BZPower's Weekly Update. Not much new these past seven days, but take a gander anyway.

Updates

Congratulations to Kex and Smeagol4, our newest Forum Leaders. I think everyone agrees that they earned it with all the hard work they've put into the site over the years.

In other news, we should have a new set review up tomorrow, after a bit of a hiatus. Don't worry, we haven't forgotten about them. After the initial rush though, things tend to slow down. We'll get to them all though.

39,000 members. That's a lot. Some people have said numbers aren't important, and in the big scheme of things they're not. But it's still pretty awesome if you ask me.

Finally, I may be appearing on LAML Radio's Lego Talk Podcast again soon, so keep your eyes peeled for that!

Mailbag

1) How do you get to the Toy Fair, do you buy a ticket?

~~Shurt

1) You get invited by Lego.

2) An understanding of the rules, respect of the site, members, and other staff, a good attitude, and fun-loving nature. Probably some other things too.

3) Umm... no.

4) Sorry.

1-why is it that if theres a spam topic, people go and post ten bazilion things saying, "thats spam" but i go and make a great topic, and nothing happens?

2-have you ever seen blink in real life?

3-do you speak french, mon?

4-why is it that there is a burst of promoting members to staff?

5-how did you get on the list to toyfair? i've heard that you've got to be some what inporten, but being a amind of bzpower doesn't mean that much, does it?

6-do you have a lego account?

7-if so, do you use it?

8-last one, why are you so cool?

1 - What defines a "great topic"? It's all up to the members to decide if they like it or not, nothing I can do.

2 - You mean Bink? No, we've never met.

3 - Nope.

4 - We felt we needed some more to help out since other Forum Leaders have been busy and not as active.

5 - Lego has graciously invited us since 2003. We represent a large portion of the Bionicle fan-base, and Lego likes for us to get the information out to you guys as quickly as possible.

6 - Yes.

7 - Every now and then, but not often.

8 - I guess it's a genetic thing.

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

So that's it for this week, thanks for reading. As always, give me some feedback so I know how I can improve future shows.

Until next time!
