Actually, no, this time I did light gray intentionally. Woah, I only have like 5 pictures of people and a few videos. Are you a creepy stalker or something? =P Also, if anyone has any good photos with me, mind sending them to me? Being behind my camera most of the time, only one of my own photos has me in it. Oh, that's only during a full moon.

YOU FORGOT TO CAPTION MY MOUSTACHE HAT Also you spelled my name wrong. =P Also, that's a freakin' hilarious pic of me. I don't even know when you took that.

I, Avohkah Tamer, do hereby pledge to attend MakutaFest 2012, and enter for a chance to win both prizes.

Fixed the color formatting in the entry, check it again. (Dang smartphones failing at BBCode and ruining the joke)

So, BrickFair is over, and I'm currently on the train heading back home. I'm gonna be perfectly honest here. That was the worst BrickFair I've ever attended! Because it was the only BrickFair I've ever attended. =P I'll miss all of you guys so much. :[ I'll blog about ALL THE THINGS when I can get to a computer. ~ (A VTOAHMKEARH)

Extremely thorough entries like this are why I haven't blogged about BrickFair yet. Nothing left for me to tell! I TOLD YOU SO, SUMIKI. but yeah SO MUCH FUN, WHY MUST IT END TOMORROW? D:

Aw man, we must have passed by you on our way back from lunch! A couple of us connected to your 3DS via Streetpass (I'm David, Blue Mii, with the pirate hat), but we couldn't find you at the con when LM and I went searching. I'm glad you enjoyed the convention and the movie afterwards, though! Just be sure to say hi to someone next time. ~ (A VTOAHMKEARH)

I AND MY MUSTACHIOED HAT AWAIT YOU, SIR.

Why don't -I- have facial hair? ;-; oh yeah because I shave darn

If you can't take the heat, STOP MAKING ALL THOSE FURNACES

Stuck in Chicago... WITH ME.

You could try the Genius Bar at your local Apple Store, but I don't know for sure whether your warranty covers cracked glass. The glass is definitely replaceable, though. Maybe not by yourself (I think the 4th gen has the glass glued to the LCD), but there are numerous businesses that can do this repair if your warranty can't help you.

D: Why'd you have to move it to the 5th? I won't be able to make it then, because that's during the final hour / closing ceremonies at BrickFair...

Well, now that we finally have a BZPower-specific skin that's not IP.Board's default, I'm betting/hoping the staff will provide resources for members to create new skins like the Skins Contest in 2006.

Though I had been using the internet for several years prior, discovering BZPower in July 2001 and eventually creating an account in 2003 was my first real foray into online communities, and I'd be lying if I said my time and experiences here didn't help shape my life. Heck, it's through BZP that I've made several lifelong best friends. As for other communities I'm a part of, I think it's obvious that more than a few of us are a part of the Brony community. =P

How about Portal 2: The Final Hours?

Ha, I was going to blog pretty much exactly this.

I saw it 5 hours early too. 'Twas amazing. Did you by any chance attend a certain software showcase event yesterday?

Buy Steam games, of course! ;D

And that "Avokah Tamer" guy. Man, what a loser.

It depends on the movie. I mean, overall you'll be watching it in a clearer, higher resolution, but from a practicality standpoint, I personally don't think the higher ticket prices are worth it unless the 3D production is also decent. If it's a choice between IMAX 3D and plain old regular 3D, though, I'd go IMAX.

Nooot exactly. Takuma rents a dedicated Minecraft server for personal/private use as a SMP game with a few friends, but he also swaps out the map and allows use of the server for MatoroIgnika's semi-weekly BZPcraft challenges (Details/signups in MI's blog)

We need to bring back plushies. WHO'S WITH ME?
