  1. Any chance you'd be willing to part with the Kakama/Komau in the photo as well? Also curious about the Quest for the Masks card, when it arrives and you can see it.
  2. Yes ONE is good, but TWO is better! I'll start the bidding at $1. Seriously jealous, lol.
  3. Hey all, as the G1 sets continue to get rarer (especially sealed), what's your approach to striking a balance between preserving a collection and enjoying it (building and displaying models, MOCing, etc.). For instance, I've long had a policy of opening my first copy of a set, and generally keeping the second sealed. As a result, I have some neat items like sealed Toa Mata, Bohrok, etc. On the flip side, I recently cracked open a sealed Jaller Mahri (my first). It was one of the most fun builds I've seen in a long time, but I felt awful doing it. How do you approach this issue?
  4. Hey Flintsmith, when does the bidding end?
  5. Funny you should mention that Iruini, because it turns out I was just testing my copy of The Insurgent around the same time I noticed your post. Turns out, it's one of the few games that still runs perfectly. Good to see a familiar face. Haha, glad to see it's still kicking. I don't know if you've spoken with the BioMedia guys yet, but I could also probably host a web archive of all of these old games. I should probably dig through the BZP Software Library and see what's still there, too.
  6. I still have all of my old Biotech files around if you need a copy (I see Havoc and The Insurgent on your list, for instance). Most of the sites are still live and accessible, too (www.insurgent-game.com, havoc.biotechgaming.com). Crazy to see all these old filenames I remember.
  7. Definitely interested in participating. Can you provide a little more insight into "medium sized" (other than strictly following the specs of the example image)? Does your print vendor support vector files (svg/ai/pdf)?
  8. Excited about the new line, but I still miss 2001...

  9. Hey B6, can you provide any further context for the judging in this contest? Beyond building interest, are they/you looking for set and production inspiration? Do you know if they're looking for a villain that runs in the $10-20 range vs. $60?
  10. Well my sleep patterns don't follow the sun exactly. 9am to 2am is my preferred routine, but sometimes I'll have to get up nearer to 7:30am (coughmorelike7:50cough). But evening is still evening, mostly there's just less morning. :P

  11. I think so... :\

  12. Seems pretty clear to me. It says don't start PMing for exceptions because you probably won't get them, but that when the admins feel it's ok to make an exception, they do it. BS01 is in violation of that rule for instance.

  13. Read the rules. Exceptions are made. Biotech has been cleared several times. And you'll noticed that I've *never* linked directly to a forum.

  14. Can I just say, making topics about FCG in GD was brilliant. Kudos. ^^

  15. Quality over quantity. Let the game speak for itself. For MSN, I believe you would simply add my name.

    And is Leppy still alive? o_0

  16. Maybe I'm different, but I'd rather have less posts and a flawless game. :P

  17. Think we could hold an IM meeting to work on ways to boost forum activity?

  18. Yeah, where you can get your first heatstone. As for having it as a main section...well, it'd bring plenty more people in, but we can't justify it. And the Insurgent is still getting several downloads a day, so we're at least getting something.

  19. I'd have to say probably level design. Figuring out where to have you go after falling into the water took well over a month. Originally if you went to the left there was a quite a sequence planned, but I ended up cutting it because it wasn't really intuitive.

  20. I have deleted nothing.

    And just to put the forum issue to rest, a quote from the rule topic: "

    ** Do not PM BR asking for approval. Approval is not given by request, it is offered if BR feels your forum deserves it and is by invitation only***"

    Hardest part...well, I can't really point at any one part and say it was really difficult. More just very detailed and tedious.

  21. By the way, Leppy did get approval for that link, so I wouldn't start reporting it or anything. :P Certain links are allowed in certain conditions on a case by case basis, that's pretty much my only explanation.

  22. I think we really should start with brand new games. Existing games have too much baggage attached.

    There is no forum loophole. You cannot link to forums and you cannot link to sites that contain forums. Very simple. I did neither, which is why my link has been approved several times. Leppy linked directly to the YYG site, which violates several rules, so go bother him about it. ;)

  23. Hardest thing...probably either the Insurgent or this system analysis tool I'm working on.

  24. No, B6 was. I was in charge of getting the games that would be played on it (I didn't get to attend though :\)

    Any particular constraints that we could apply to make things more interesting?
