THIS IS THE OFFICIAL PLACE TO DISCUSS IDEAS FOR THE PROJECT.

What Do You Need To Enter:
1. Write an epic or brainstorm an idea for an epic. The epic must be at least 10 chapters long but no more than 70. The epic may NOT be posted in any form prior to the actual start of the competition. That means if you just posted the first chapter of an epic, that epic is not eligible.
2. Post a comment here stating that you will be joining the competition. When you actually post
As many of you may have noticed, Electric Turahk has revealed what AHEM is and is making some false claims. First of all, the Naho thing was NOT for BNG but for AHEM. And what's AHEM?
This is AHEM (no, not a hippo eating mushrooms )
First of all, the name AHEM is completely gibberish and an inside joke from a while back. It means absolutely nothing. What's behind the name AHEM? The stories of the Toa Mangai and other teams.
We were discussing with Greg the possibility of getting minor c
BNG will be starting a Blender Academy to teach others how to 3D model/animate. Sign up now!
There will be approximately one hour's worth of work on learning Blender per day for about 5 weeks (not counting weekends ). You can spread the days across the entire summer or do all of the work in a week or less. It depends when you want to do it. We should have enough "professors" that one will be able to help you, except for the middle of the night. I don't think we'll able to be that flexible.
I'm right now in the middle of planning a conference for Bionicle: Next Generation at BrickFair this summer. I have no idea how I would set it up or where it would be, but I'll figure that out soon later eventually.
But what I need to know is how many people working on the project will be going to know whether or not we should even bother having the conference there. The conference would be a chance to discuss the project in detail with people face-to-face. I think we would also be able to fi
Something I thought up while eating an ice cream sundae: I love ice cream. Well, that and I think Bionicle: Next Generation should have an "Employee" of the Month award. Therefore, without consulting with anyone else, I have decided to have an Employee of the Month contest.
What I will ask is that the leaders of each group (animation, concept art, etc) PM me the name of hardest working person in their group and a list of reasons why that person should be "Employee of the Month."
Prizes are
Who would go somewhere with the word "con" clearly in its name?
Well GJ and Lunekk will!
GJ and Lunekk are going to be at Comic-Con doing BNG-related stuff. Well, thanks to the iPhone 4 (Apple... *shudders*), they will be streaming the entire event in HD! So all those who couldn't make it, can watch it at home in high quality.
Let's hope their new iPhone doesn't get conned out of them somehow.
I'll be giving updates for different sections of Bionicle: Next Generation for everyday from now on (hopefully)

Tonight a Cub Scout Pack I Den Chief for is having their Blue and Gold Banquet (get it? A Toa of Psionics is Blue and Gold? That was probably one of my worse attempts at being funny). I Den Chief with one of my friends who was in my den when I was in Cub Scouts. He also was once very interested in Bionicle. He is very talented with computers an
I don't know how the conversation went there! It started off as a conversation about Toa Lhikevikk's april fools joke and somehow got here.
And GJ thought I should post it. I am not going to say whether or not GJ did or didn't think I should post this.

EDIT: The whole conversation. Or enough of it anyways.

BNG is planning on doing a Bionicle-related MMORPG. I had pushed for the idea that we base it off of Aethion (aka the Expanded Multiverse) but it doesn't look very promising for it at the moment. I think it would be perfect. You'd choose your species and elements and then which planet you want to start out on (or make it choose for you at random). It just seems like the EM was made for an MMORPG. I mean, I can easily imagine Olmak Totems getting people between planets. There are some m
How many people oppose having a Rahi attack in the lower levels the Archives in The Empire? Very possible, considering that, well, it's the lower levels of the Archives?
Also, I'm adding some scenes showing Lesovikk and Takanuva traveling from Artahka to Po-Metru. They didn't just teleport. I'm sure it won't be a big deal canon-wise if they fight Tahu while traveling through Ta-Metru, would it? Never mind. Not doing that because scene turned out terrible and Lesovikk and Takanuva used an und
For BNG!

We are forming the Bionicle: Next Generation: Support Group. While the Blender Academy deals with one-on-one training in Blender, we are also doing something a little more broad. By joining the BNG: Support Group you are given access to many things including...
•Beta testing the Bionicle Arena game due out by January 2011
•Have a custom character appear in the Bionicle Arena game
•Be the first to see the movies we create and give us your opinio
What are you doing thinking you're going to try to join the BZPRPG, LK? You're busy enough as it is. You have an epic to write. And two other epics to co-write. Plus you still need to read/review The New Age and The Rogi Nui Chronicles! Not to mention to epic you promised you'd review for the Epics Critic Club.
I know, LK, but it sounds like fun.
That is absolutely not excuse LK. You have things to do. Fun can come later.
But some of the great writers of BZP claim that the BZPRPG helped
NOTE FROM LK: Canon is very important to this project. However, movies are even more important. We've taken some freedoms in this with a big difference from the original Dark Mirror and the original script. The majority of this scene is non-canon. We know that. But looking at the script and the original Dark Mirror, there is only one "fight scene" throughout the entire story (the last part). While that might work for a serial, a movie with absolutely no fighting except for the end would be very
Theme: Write a story that could have taken place during the Toa-Dark Hunter War. It could feature the Dark Hunters, the Toa, or maybe the Matoran - it's up to you. Try to avoid anything conflict with canon.
Rules:
Must be between 400 and 10,000 words. That's alot of words. Avoid conflicts with established canon. Up to five entries per member It may be something you've already posted.
Prizes: Funny you should ask. Let's just it has something to do with a very hungry hippo who has a cravin
It's official. The account hacking-thing really has me spooked/paranoid now. I'm probably going to be changing my password daily now (even though it's ridiculously long as is)
Does anyone know what are the odds that someone's account could be hacked?
I will keep this updated with any banners that are made and posted in the Concept Art topic for all to see and use!
