I dunno, you guys gave me good names, but I'm not digging... about 98% of it I liked Swert06, a lot of what Soran said, dun really like Swertsector01, silly Kyn , Tekulo's list is eh. I dunno, I'm very picky with branding. It's kinda why when I designed the TbP Group logo I looked at all aspects of it right down to the very pixel positioning. It wasn't easy. Basically I think SWERT06 will be an acceptable name. But I have an idea for the description that will make up for everybody else no
So um... I kinda wanna change my blog name. But I suck at naming things (My computers are SWERT01 and SWERT02, my Zune is SWERT03, my phone is SWERT05 (the hard drive in 01 is SWERT04, kinda wish I had named the desktop SWERT02 to match Thunderbirds better but whatever)) and I really want a cool name. So submit ideas. I'll take any ideas FROM ANYONE. Just remember, keep it BZP appropriate. Also NO PONIES! kthx.
Okay, I must personally apologize to all MakutaFest people who attended during that question. When writing them, we did research pretty deeply on BS01 directly, and I remembered the Taku but mistakened it for the same role as the Kewa, which is much larger and indeed the one we wanted instead. One of our biggest errors was in how BS01 worded it: "When the Great Cataclysm brought about the creation of the island of Mata Nui, many Kewa migrated there and established themselves in Le-Wahi. In the
Greetings everyone! So, that image? Yeah, it's a link. Basically that's the only way (for now) to enter for MakutaFest's Random Drawing. I wish I had posted it back on Wed, but I didn't get that chance. ENTER TODAY! : D
But it could easily have been. Click for larger detail Taken with -my- phone. Fortunately both phones are insured, and it'd cost me no more than say 100 bucks to replace, and Sprint's cool in that we can add it to our next bill and maybe even set up a payment plan on the bills. So we can handle the blow, but it's gonna take time. Now then, if you'll excuse me, I'll be going to work.
So Microsoft released a new email service, based on their Outlook branding. It's similar in function (if not identical) to Hotmail, minus the UI. Oh also? Because it's new, you can register new email accounts. Through your default. I already registered a few. I might get more later, but let's not get too greedy here I should still review Office 13 : D
We created a community calendar event for MakutaFest. Now you can RSVP and I'll get an idea of who's going Also I want to blog about a movie I just saw today, but I'll wait. Suffice it to say it was -amazing-.
Basically, I underestimated how many BZP members going to BrickFair would be interested in joining in on MakutaFest. Therefore we might push the time back to 7 PM EDT/4 PM PDT. (We're -still- discussing this internally, BZP reporting jumped the gun on us.) And yes, I realize the closing ceremonies is at 6 PM EDT. But if we push it too far back, nobody else could attend. Sorry folks, I'm really trying my best.
Here's the second grand prize. Now, before you ask, because I know you will, no it's not filled. It's just the case. It's completely empty. But this is a wonderful chance for you to start your own and put it in an awesome case Also, as an added value, this case can (if requested by the winner) be signed by LEGO Certified Professional Dan Parker, and myself. We will only sign if the winner wants it. Regardless, -all- prizes get signed business cards of Dan Parker's company, signed by both
Did I forget to mention we have grand prizes, too? These six go to ONE lucky winner. And this is only one of the two grand prizes. I didn't even photograph the second one yet. Details coming soon. Oh also, we moved MakutaFest to Aug. 5th. Same time so far. ALL PRIZES ARE COURTESY OF CITY BLOCKS, TACOMA'S LEGO ART CENTER.
So, I noticed a topic earlier asking about the online animations from Bionicle past. So I figured someone was bound to post a link to BS01's page, right? I mean, we do have the animations on there. Nope. Not even mentioned. So I decided it's time to update the Media navigation on the front page. Now it has links to anything I could think people would want to research. And maybe tomorrow when I'm not working? I'll even finish the other undone pages. So unless my staff wants to do it for

Took me 10 minutes to come up with that title. Now -that's- sad. So a few small updates on my end, the Mirus are stored safely in my safekeeping. I also have not YET seen TDKR. I'm waiting for the end of the week. Work is steady but it'll be busy all next week. Basically, I have -nothing- to blog about, cause it's boring here. I should do something amazing and blog about that. ... Or sit down and do the Office 2013 review I threatened said I'd do.
Figured I had nothing better to do, so I popped the DVD in and watched it. Now I'm recaught up with the story so far, so I can go watch TDKR next week. Works for me.
Now when I say "For a more pure Floyd listening," nothing can obviously replace just listening to the albums. I recommend that for anyone, of course. But if you just want a good sampling of Floyd songs? Cholie and I came up with two good playlist options, and what albums to find them all from. For our Album selections: Astronomy Domine (From Piper at the Gates of Dawn) See Emily Play (a Single released by Floyd, it's findable on multiple Best Of CDs, and probably elsewhere) Set the Con
First off, is it just me or is it weird to have a 20 MB update download faster than it takes to install? Anyway, so a few people already heard, but remember how I mentioned I was waking up at 6:30 each morning this week to host workshops? Yeah, nobody showed up. Great. So I switched back to my normal schedule and proceeded to work on a new project. Once it's done, I will show you all. Hint: Remember Green Lantern and Captain America from the Bricks Cascade photos on the main page? They h
Yes, it's The Flash. And yes, I -know- Queen made the song for Flash Gordon. Let me enjoy my music my own way >: O ... So yeah, Marvel next. Who should it be?
So for 5 days in a row, I get to wake up at 6:30 AM, catch a 7:30 AM bus, then catch a bus headed towards work and arrive at like 8:30 AM or 9 AM. So in other words, it's just like when I started working there, only now I'm expected to do stuff when I walk in. Swell.
... I want. So badly. Unless it's just like Iron Man. Then it's going to fail. So badly. ... Too bad they couldn't get Rocksteady to make it :\ That'd be epic.
When hist'ry wrought an archive new From tale, from code in Wiki Blue For knowledge, this, we worked upon. Continue now, EDIT ON! I sincerely wish to thank Inferna Firesword, for being an awesome person. Oh, and for my rings The Nuparu Inika claw was given to me in 2011 at BrickCon. The second is a custom for me I commissioned. And now it's mine. (Special thanks to Tomana for writing the Wiki Lantern Oath. YOU ROCK BUDDY!)
Note, this not everything that I own on both fronts. Just stuff I had out. So yeah, I have too much stuff But I want Justice League: Doom next. Oh and David Gilmour: Live in Gdansk on video, Delicate Sound of Thunder, and a few more movies.
I have begun uploading THE LAST 488 FILES FOR BS01. This is a monumental moment IMO. Once I'm done, we can see what we're truly missing, and I can still go get them. Also no news on the new processor and mobo yet.
