    It seems my last entry here was last September. Dagnabbit. I've sorta wanted to get this blog back in action a few times, but I've never done it, now that I'm unPremier. But this blog was sort of awesome, so maybe I will.
     
    In other news, I've been playing a lot of MAG and watching a lot of Avatar and old Dr. Who. Massive Action gaming is the future. Sokka (coughcorrectspellingnowcough) and Uncle Iroh (coughcorrectspellingnowcough) are the only smart characters. Tom Baker is the best actor since Patrick McGoohan.

    Heck to the yes.
     

     
    Thanks B6, and Bink.
     
    Also I'm not sure if/when I'll be getting up pics this year, my bro took them all, so I'll have to look through them and see if it's worthwhile.

    First off, I hope your not allergic to indignation if you're reading this entry.
     
    So in the BS01 Certavus contest, they recently started the final poll and it's gotten a ton of publicity, and a ton of votes (Over 1000, in the end). Entry #1 began to pull ahead of the other entries towards the end, at a remarkable speed. Many people thought that this was cheating, and said as much. But in every poll that gets a lot of publicity from various sources, there is a gigantic amount of current winner fluctuation, because of the variety of people voting. I personally think that there was nothing wrong, rigged, or otherwise screwed up in the poll by Saber Masquerade. But, regardless, Swert decided to START A NEW POLL with the five leaders as of the topic's closing. Thus destroying Entry #1's large lead, and virtually adding at least 30 votes to the other finalling entries.
     
    Does that sound fair to you?
     
    For reference:
    Old Poll
    New Poll
     
    In closing I would like to ask you guys to vote for entry number four in the Final Final Poll, to lessen the 30 vote handicap placed on him.
     
    Also I'd like to say that out of all the people arguing about whether or not SB was cheating, KonguTohunga was the most correct.

    Okay, so one of the things I like best about BZP, is it's contests.
     
    I would like two things to enhance the contest experience on BZP:
    MORE
    At regular intervals (So we will know when the next contest will be.)
     
    I also believe that having more contests would have five effects:
    More winners (here would obviously be more winners if there were more contests. ANd who's going to leave BZP after they've won a contest on here?)
    Increased site activity (Contests always generate a significant boost in individual forum activity, so if you had more contests in various forums, it would boost overall site activity)
    Increased membership (People LOVE contests. They love suspense, the y love looking at the other entries, the idea of winning, and the prizes if applicable. So I think it would push many mere guests, into being full fledged members, and perhaps Premier Members eventually. That's why me and my bro signed up orginally.)
    Increased competitiveness (Everyone becomes better at everything with practice, and that's what would happen if there were more contests)
    Longer individual member activity (I think that more contests would keep more "Dark ages" members on the site)
     
    Negatives:
     
    Dramatically increased staff workload (All contests come with a significantly heavier staff workload. Answering questions, coding entry lists, coding polls, etc.)
     
    So, I have come up with a rough calendar, which I think would do all the above listed things:
     
    May: BBC | SS
    Jun: RPG | BBC
    July: S&T | AC
    Aug: BBC | SS
    Sep: RPG | BBC
    Oct: EC | AC
    Nov: BBC | SS
    Dec: RPG | BBC
    Jan: S&T | AC
    Feb: BBC | SS
    Mar: RPG | BBC
    Apr: EC | AC
     
    Interesting, no? Anyway, that would be amazing if it actually happened.
     
    Let comments, discussion, and chaos ensue....

    Today has been so-so, if I may use the expression, and has had it's ups and downs. I will proceed to tell you briefly of these "ups and downs". I\i WOKE UP EARLY THIS MORNING, AND CHECKED THE CELLPHONE TO SEE THE TIME WAS ABOUT 3:14:15 TO the SMELL OF SMOKE, WHICH IN MOST CASES MEANS SOMETHING IS BURNING, AS IT WAS IN THIS CASE. i QUICKLY PUT ON A PAIR OF SLIPPERS, GRABBED MY AUTOGRAPHED BIONICLE COMIC, AND MY MOST RECENT moc (PICTURES WILL BE UP SOON, HOPEFULLY, MORE DETAILS ON WHY THERE MIGHT NOT BE PICS LATER) AND RAN OUT THE WINDOW 9iLIVE IN THE BASEMENT). i DIDN'T KNOW WHY Aq\\a fire would be in my house, uninvited (I later found out it was caused by someone severeing the gas line, and inserting a banana magazine (Double stacked) in the toaster (which was unplugged last I knew, so it must have been replugged (?))) I was angry at the idea of myr Comicon Special Edition BIonicle Comic #1 BURNING, but I remembered it was insured so... Anyway... Then...

    I've been rereading A Series Of Unfortunate Events, an amazing series. Unfortunately, it becomes too unrealistic after book #9, but it's still an awesome series.

    I dreamed up this logo for something when I should have been doing math. Then I made it in Gimp, and it turned out pretty good.
