Weekly Update - 11/12
Intro
Welcome, one and all, to this week's update. As per usual I have no plans for what I'm going to write, so let's see what happens.
Updates
First and foremost (in my mind) BrickFest 2011 was canceled. I know a bunch of people were planning on going and this is a real disappointment. Look for some smaller BZPower gatherings to be planned at BrickWorld and/or BrickMagic now, two events that have not traditionally had a large Bionicle presence. BrickFair is still the go-to event for BZPower though.
A new episode of the Hero Factory podcast came out this week too. They're fun, sure, but they're nothing compared to the BZPowercast in my opinion. Speaking of the Powercast, don't forget that you can get your voice on the show! Just record some questions or comments and we'll throw them in for all to hear!
On the, 'that's weird' front, some members discovered the LEGO Octopus Beta. There's been no word, even amongst the Ambassadors, as to what this is, but I think you can expect to learn more soon hopefully.
Speaking of Ambassador stuff, I haven't gotten a chance to do anything about that yet, at least in the public's eyes. Maybe this weekend? I hope? I'll let you guys in on some info though - one thing involves the selection of our next Ambassador and the other is about getting LEGO a way to find all the awesome LEGO builders in our community. I look forward to both of these, as soon as I get to them...
Mailbag
Hey B6! Thought I'd put in a couple o'questions for the good ol' mailbag!
1. What would you say if people tried to start a name fad based off of your name (someone's already joined BZP as "Black Seven," lol)?
2. Favourite BIONICLE Character who was a set in 2006?
3. What about 2008?
4. 2009?
Non-BIONICLE or BZP question:
3. Favourite Star Trek: Deep Space Nine Episode?
1. There's been a member named "blackfive" for years and years. I guess it's only a matter of time before the other combinations get taken?
2. I will go with Axonn.
3. Tahu, although certainly not in that form.
4. Mata Nui maybe?
3. (Again?) It's been so long since I've watched DS9 I couldn't name any episodes.
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
And that, as they say, is that. Thank you all for reading - questions, comments and such are always appreciated. Have a great weekend!
