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 forums? If not, what do you suggest? (If need be, I can explain my justifications for each).

 

3) Where should blogs go?

a - Underwater (like Mahri Nui).

b - Their own island.

c - On boats.

d - In people's homes/on their property.

e - Other (please specify).

 

4) How do homes work?

a - People choose a forum-village and live there.

b - People live on boats that travel from forum to forum.

c - Other (please specify).

I want to hear your explanations for #3 anyway. :P

 

1. *Is not creative, so just says yes*

 

2. Same as #1.

 

3. I can vaguely see the logic behind it, but I want to hear your explanations anyway (just to annoy you :P).

 

3. I don't like the idea of it being their own island. Maybe a seperate Koro, as the first one could just be the forums. :shrugs: Boats are neat, though. It combines the idea of estates with some random other things. :P

 

4. We're all homeless. :P

1. I'd actually prefer a city on an island, personally.

2. Well, I'd just use BZ-Nui/BZ-Metru if my previous suggestion was used.

3. e. I'd say that blogs would be, like mansions. Normal members would have houses, Premier Members would have mansions.

4. c. They have Profile Houses.

1. yes

2. yes

3. see 4

4. I think blogs and profiles should be like houses, with profiles being regular huts, etc. and blogs being estates. Located in the forum/ wahi/koro of their choosing.

1) Actually, I thought it was a pretty unique idea to begin with. Nice job.

2) Okay, I suppose.

3) I'd say less elemental and more environmental. Like how Mata Nui had different ecosystems where various elements flourished.

3) I'd say island, since blogs aren't apart of any particular set of forums. If you didn't want to create a whole entire "island" that would upset the logo, maybe combine blogs with COT and LGD.

4) I like the idea of boats. Might be a problem for any landlocked forums, though. :P

01. Eh, whatever. It seems fine to me.

 

02. I have not even heard the island names let alone of this project until just now. 'Scuse me while I look them up-

... Okay, to be honest, they seem kinda silly. Although "Hapori Nui" sounds good. I'm afraid I don't have many suggestions...

 

03. I like xccj's idea for this.

 

03. e- Well, blogs have been referred to as the "blogosphere", or something like that, so I imagine they'd be an atmospheric layer- Which makes me imagine the blogs as being in the upper portions of really tall buildings scattered across the islands, connected by bridges and wires.

 

04. c- I kinda like the homeless idea. I imagine BZP as being like a bunch of communal buildings- there's space here and there for people to rest and everything else is shared.

 

 

Random ideas- Well, now I'm really begining to imagine BZP as a city- a really open city. Where the roof of one building is the floor of another, where scenery in one area can differ vastly from another. Like Metru Nui, but with higher density building.

And-

Well, now I'm holing myself up in my ideas.

1) Perhaps we should think of something that is exclusive to BZP, but for now it's good.

2) Except for the one for the COT/LGD island, yes.

3) From memory, they were pretty accurate and well thought out. Have to look again though to be sure.

3 :lol: ) The property idea sounds reasonable. Then you could have hotels or hostels for those without permanent blogs and such. There'd also be rent, 6 month rent and 12 month rent. And then those that are fully owned and not mortgaged and such. :P

4) Can't think of anything else but choose where you want your property to be. Obviously there are places that are not habitable, like the Reference Desk and such.

I want to hear your explanations for #3 anyway. :P

Fine, fine. Here goes. *cracks knuckles*

 

Fire: Bionicle Collectibles -- Ta-Matoran make masks.

Fire: LEGO Bionicle Sets -- Ta-Matoran make the parts for things like Vahki, etc.

 

Water: New Member Q&A -- Ga-Matoran are teachers.

Water: General Discussion -- Ga-Matoran talk a lot? (Kind of grasping at straws here. :P)

 

Stone: Buy/Sell/Trade -- Po-Koro had a thriving marketplace in MNOLG1

Stone: Marketplace Banter -- (See above.)

 

Ice: Bionicle Storyline & Theories -- Ko-Matoran ponder the future.

Ice: Voting Booth -- Ko-Matoran use information they collect to extrapolate the future (also a bit of a stretch).

 

Air: Comedies -- Le-Matoran joke around.

Air: Bionicle Artwork III: Bionicle Comics -- (See above).

 

Earth: Bionicle Reference Center -- Onu-Matoran archive things and study the past.

Earth: Bionicle Movies & Books -- The tales told in the movies and books are about the past, which interests the Onu-Matoran.

 

Light: BZP Reference Desk -- Nothing more bright and painful to the eyes than a bunch of rules (also, it's like the "ultimate" element).

Light: BZPower.com News Discussion -- Shines a light into the darkness of ignorance (once again, mostly because it'd be unfair to give another forum Light).

 

Plasma: Completely Off Topic -- Plasma is full of energy and all over the place, just like COT.

Plasma: Bionicle Games & Trivia -- Once again, full of energy

 

Magnetism: Bionicle Software -- Information is often stored magnetically.

Magnetism: Fan-Made Games -- (See above.)

 

Plant Life: Bionicle Artwork I: General Art -- Plant Life is serene, graceful, and beautiful, just like artwork.

Plant Life: Bionicle Promotions -- Plants also try to spread themselves everywhere, which is what Promotions are for.

 

Gravity: LEGO General Discussion -- Gravity is things being held together, like LEGO sets.

Gravity: Bionicle Artwork II: Shops & Kits -- The various sprites and banners are also things that are being held together.

 

Iron: Bionicle Based Creations -- BIONICLE creatures are metallic and Fe-Matoran are industrious, building many things.

Iron: BBC Contest Voting -- (See above.)

 

Sonics: Epics -- De-Matoran like the quiet, making it easier for them to read.

Sonics: Short Stories -- (See above.)

 

Lightning: Bionicle RPG -- Nikila, the only Toa of Lightning we've seen, was a strategist and Tahnok-Kal was said to be the fiercest of the Bohrok-Kal. Sounds like an RPG player to me.

Lightning: RPG Contest Voting -- (See above).

 

3) I'd say less elemental and more environmental. Like how Mata Nui had different ecosystems where various elements flourished.

That was sort of the idea, actually. Especially since Member X might like Epics, but despise Sonics, for instance.

1. Yes, it's quite a good idea. :P

2. They're OK.

3. Umm.. maybe Reference Desk shouldn't have an element, since it's like.. the beginning of everywhere. :P

4. In a newspaper-like thing..?

5. Maybe like they stay in rest houses in each forum.. then move to others etc..

Uh sure but your boundries kinda suck I'll redo them to show you what would look better latter.

 

2) Do you agree with the island names? If not, what are some better ones you can think of?

Viso just seems off. I like the others though.

 

3) Do you agree with the elemental designations of the forums? If not, what do you suggest? (If need be, I can explain my justifications for each).

OK I'll just make a list of all of em and say what I think:

Ref Desk: Fits I guess

Q&A: Water? I think that Q&A should also be light as it shows people "the way"

Sets: I dont really see anything that fitting for sets so Fire can do.

BRC: Earth in the middle of Ice looks stupid but otherwise makes sense.

S&T: As much as I dont like Ice it fits S&T.

Collectibles: See Sets.

Promos: Plant Life? I say make it Plasma as Promos are similar to sets but not quite ;)

Software: I like :P

M&B: Works.

GD: Water? W/e

BBC: Iron k

Art1: Plant Life k

Art2: Gravity?

Art3: Air k
