I just watched the uncut version of the Mask of Light, not that 4.5 minutes shorter version that was sold here in Germany. (They actually cut the movie for being too violent!!!)
All of a sudden I like MoL... xD
The BIONICLE Story Squad (BSS) may soon do a topic in S&T where we can announce all our rejected canon submissions, but since the BSS wants you to know about all our decisions, I took the liberty to create this blog entry. So far, you have only seen topics about what has made it past us - here is what has been declined by us or Greg, along with our reasons why.
"Kanohi Amana" - Bioni-Cool Jack
Bioni-Cool Jack suggested to name the Mask of Elemental Energy "Kanohi Amana", based on some
Got my final exam results yesterday. We have got a 15 points system for the secondary level here in Germany, with 15 being the best and 0 the worst result. Here's what I got:
German - 10 points (apparently the correctors were very harsh in this subject... some people entered the exams with an average of 13 points and left it with a result of 6 points)
Math - 5 points (oh well, that was to be expected)
English - 15 points (was to be expected, too)
Spanish - 15 points (this really surprised
Well... those frequent serial updates are annoying me... I wish there was some way for Greg to find more time to write them... sad.gif
The bad part is: without new story, I feel my interest in BIONICLE fading, something (in my eyes) completely undesirable.
<nerd>
In less than 20 minutes, I am going to watch "Incursion, Part 2" - two days before it airs in the USA. Wanna know why? Because for the first time in Stargate history, a German TV channel gets to air an episode BEFORE the US. I don't like the German voice actors for SGU (or the translations, for that matter), but tonight, I simply won't care about that and enjoy the show, knowing that I am among the first to watch this.

GN 8 and 9 arrived today.
I stick to what I said before: Sayger sucks. But Zanier is greatness impersonated - the artwork of The Exile's Tale is really epic. Here's hoping we will get so see GN10 and he'll still do it.
<nerd>
NtM's Nerd Library is about to grow again
- Amazon.de will ship GN8 and GN9 today (can't wait! ._.)
Plus, I will buy the following books/comics this week:
- Star Wars Rebel Force 4
- Star Wars Jedi Quest Volume 3 (re-release containing books 7-9)
- Star Wars #88 (a comic magazine including Clone Wars Hero of the Confederacy 2 and Dark Times Blue Harvest 4)
And I'm looking forward to the following releases during June/July:
- SW Legacy of the Force 9 (Mid-June release,
Yes, you heard right. You can keep a part of the BIONICLE story alive! Do you know how?
1) (Pre-)Order Graphic Novel 8 "Legends of Bara Magna" and GN 9 "The Fall of Atero", thus increasing the sales for these two comic collections.
1a.) If you can afford only one, buy GN 8, because that contains new stories which you may enjoy more than a collection of 2009 comics AND it may show Papercutz that new comics are high in demand among fans.
1b.) Always remember - the more GNs get sold, the highe
Some crazy guy wearing a gas mask just wandered in today and destroyed, um, exterminated the Dalek Emperor to vent his anger on some doctor he obviously isn't quite pleased with... so Nuhrii the Metruan is back.
And apart from a terrible explanation for changing my name back, I must remind you of a very epic thing Chosen One of Bionicle did when I was Nuhrii the Dalek Emperor... NtDE exterminates the entire Chronicler staff... ^^
I am just writing this to congratulate Dorek. Why? Because of "Decadence" - but not primarily because it won the Core War contest, but because it has been very easy to translate. The writing style was very good compared to some previous fan-created canon stories I translated for The Chronicler. I hope the winners of upcoming story contests will be as well-written as this one.

Just some notes--
1) BSS doesn't organize contests.
2) While some members of BSS belong to parties that are allowed to do contests (most notably, Bioran23, Shadow Kurahk, Erebus, bonesiii, Sisen and I), these parties do their contests independently from the BSS.
3) KJ/TC, S&T and BS01 don't tell you which contests they have in store for you because they are supposed to be a surprise. Remember guys, being a fan of and participating in this story is supposed to be fun. Secrecy is indeed
... last week. Now Journey's End has been exterminated, too. But it was a nice ending extermination. BIONICLE is supreme. All hail the BIONICLE emperor... ^^ You did a great job, Greg.
Nuhrii the Dalek Emperor exterminates his cover designer Bioniclemaster724. The others present (and next to be exterminated) are:
- Chosen One of Bionicle (the yellow-white Matoran, credit to him for this awesome picture; Coob also wants to give credit to Doctor Who am I? for the Dalek sprites)
- Neramo (the green one in the bottom left-hand corner)
- Toa-Kal (or Toa-Nuva, depending on website) is represented by Tahu Nuva
- Nathanael1711 (the black guy with the funny face)

Daleks are supreme! All hail the Dalek Emperor!
EDIT: The Dalek Emperor would like to know why there are only "Delete" buttons in the blogs! Cybermen are inferior! The Emperor requests "Exterminate" buttons!
Though not entirely unexpected, I have to announce that I leave the Greg Team with immediate effect. My reasons are rather simple and come down to a short list:
- BIONICLE Story Squad (which is more important to me, as I am sure you will understand)
- The Chronicler magazine
- final exams and after that, some months of social work before I go to university
- parts of real life that demand more attention
The Greg Team sadly no longer finds a place in my schedule, which is why I just inform
I just rediscovered an unfinished part of what I wanted to write for the S&T Time Capsule contest. I wanted to mix quotes from all years of the saga into a comedy. Well, I never finished, but I will give you the little that I wrote for your entertainment.
Just watched the 11th episode of season 1 and I have to say: Stargate Universe is starting to really meet my expectations. Great show. Still, I will miss Atlantis and SG-1.
April Fool's Day is over and it ended for The Chronicler with a great comic by Chosen One of Bionicle (Coob).

To help you understand: The Chronicler announced yesterday that LEGO chose to end BIONICLE because they disapproved of all the canonization that has been going on here on BZP. As a consequence, The Chronicler would be converted to the "Hero Magazine" (see the great banner by Neramo here).
To make this rather simple joke more believable, I wrote something called "BIONICLE:
It was long overdue, but now all outdated links have been removed.
And prankin' people is fun, especially when everyone beliefs the stuff you're telling them. And even more so on the Internet, were misinformation spreads rapidly. xD
