Those aren't Gali's original seahooks

I think the Kaukau is a very tasteful mask actually, at least in appearance.

Throw smelly socks at passing cars with...Ahkmou? I can see he'd be the type of guy for that, but I'm not sure we'd get on. Why wasn't I born on June 24th, eh?

Who doesn't want to open a dry cleaners with Takuma Nuva

I used to think the new theme looked grey, now it looks pleasantly blue, and the other theme just kills you.

Hit the nail on the head there, plus I don't know whether 64x64 images work anymore, there was a problem with that when the forums first came back.

I slept 14 hours last night, but I have basically no excuse. Genuine laziness.

I managed 1% of that by strumming randomly and pressing buttons randomly. I actually do worse trying to do it properly.

I have this problem too. I believe it's called "holidays".

Think how it is for the new members, not only do they not know anybody, but they never knew anybody either.

That awkward moment when someone calls the PS2 "classic".

Well, I have fond memories, I don't use it very often and I'm not likely to get any new games.

Is the word pants...meant to be pants?

Prepare to have your minds blown, brilliant film. I'm seeing it again tomorrow.

You may have got that high Vorex, but I'm remembering from back before the downtime, when you weren't around.

The bit with James Bond and the Queen was ingenius, and Rowan Atkinson was just hilarious.

Just thinking, Wouldn't Hydraxons mask be a fair compromise? Wasn't it used as a HF mask as well as BIONICLE?

Not sure if anyone has donated (Not that I would have any way of knowing ) but I know GSR was going to and then switched to doing his Premier give away thing. It's good logic, and very generous.

I've had a pretty bad cold the last few days as well, also with an extreme sore throat.

Wasn't gonna stop me seeing The Dark Knight Rises though.

Although I did have the worlds most immense head ache afterwards. Sickness and cinema don't mix well.

Was it 12 days exactly, to the nearest second? Because only then can you say the number of seconds to be that.

I'm not a Vorex fan, I prefer Pirok.

I've had a similar situation recently. Except it was guys ganging up on the guy to ask the girl out. And I was one of the guys ganging up, as opposed to the one getting the girlfriend.

-“Yes, for what reason?” Vakama asked rhetorically

-“Vakama?” Nuurakh’s tone was more concerned than angry.

I think the formatting there is a bit misleading. I'm not sure you meant to continue the italics for the rest of the "Vakama asked rhetorically" bit. Italics covering a whole line often implies a thought, as opposed to speech. This could go either way.

Other than that, it's a lot better written than previously, but you've still got the odd typo/mispelling in there.

It's a good plan, I never did that, and so I look at stuff I've written in the past and thing "Argh! Why would I even have posted this stuff?"

You don't want to be in that situation, I tell you now. Most important thing to do is be your own fan.

I will also write a fair chunk of the story before I release it so you can really get the gist of the plot.

I'm doing something similar, I've already got two chapters written up for an epic I'm working on. I haven't posted them yet, because I want to make sure the plot has a solid direction before I post it. It's kind of a different situation, as I'm actually re-writing one of my old epics (One of the ones I looked back at and thought "Argh!" as it happens. ).

I look forward to seeing this when you re-release it. It's better to tackle issues earlier on, a lot of my epics have just been left unfinished because I let them escalate out of control.

That midak thing, how is that even possible? What's holding the hooks in the feet? How I wish I could have the opportunity to see these up close.

Matau was more similar to his canon self, so that was fairly relatable. Nokama seems to have a very different personality, and she does seem rather shallow, even she doesn't want to.

I was wondering about one thing. From the first few lines of the first chapter, I concluded the whole "Mata Nui is a Giant robot with a universe inside of him" thing still stood, and by extension his question to remerge Spherus Magna. Are you kind of making it so that the beings inside of him have gained more sentience, and are more emotionally complex? It seems like the stories more about the interactions of the characters inside the MU, and perhaps Mata Nui's well being and quest will have less relevance?

My missing your blog entry aside, the stories looking to be pretty deep, in terms of the psychology of the characters. The second chapter draws you in more than the first, as the first seems like the characters are in pretty much normal situations, with the exception of whatever Nuju spotted. The Lhikan and Nidhiki story looks to be more intriguing, there's obviously something unusual afoot.
