  1. Hm, I suppose I'm very kind and loyal.
  2. Really tough choice. I think my gut's telling me #3, though, so that it is.
  3. My sister gave me one a long time ago, but hey, why not another?
  4. Some more Bravely Second. Actually, scratch that, it's now Pokemon Shuffle.
  5. Yeah, let's see how this fits over in Storyline & Theories.
  6. Thankfully, he's saved by the fact that everyone is thinking about how much they like him. Or maybe that wouldn't help. Hmm... Dang, Skull Grinder's about to wreck the Toa in one swing!
  7. Honestly, all my parts pre-reboot (except for Lhikan, who is assembled) are buried in containers somewhere in my parents' house. My MOCing days are pretty much over, so I don't expect them to see daylight anytime soon. And I don't really have enough room in my apartment... As such, select 2015 and 2016 sets are on display where I currently live. Most are standing behind my desk.
  8. Out comes a durian. Close, right? In goes your very animated signature.
  9. Hey, just a heads-up - please don't double post to bump up a topic. Instead, you can use the "edit" button instead until someone makes a post after yours.
  10. As Eyru said above, that's something only the games' creator can fix. You could try PMing Furiosa's Sidekick (Emzee) about it.
  11. Out comes a very Bionicle Memorial Day, maybe. In goes the German language.
  12. I'm finishing the second year of my graduate program - congrats on surviving your first! That's definitely an accomplishment that I know not everyone can make.
  13. Closed as requested in favor of a new topic.
  14. Topic closed in favor of the new discussion thread.
  15. I think a user on our Facebook page said it best: "I've needed this in my life for exactly 10 years. Gimme. Gimme nao." The look is incredibly official.
  16. Our first review, Storm Beast, is up. Definitely one of the sets I'll be picking up this summer.
  17. Rhythm is totally annoying to spell. Also, I should have given the disclaimer that it's totally okay to mess around with rhythm and make your readers stumble if you'd like. In many cases how the poem is read can affect its interpretation and reading. You can have two stressed syllables close together in order to give emphasis or to deliberately make your reader slow down. I highlighted the second line because I got tripped up on "saying and despite" after having read the first line's smooth flow. But hey, such a thing can be powerful. Don't let my being a music nerd/French lit grad student get in your way!
  18. This is some excellent writing. If I may, I'll offer a suggestion - to try to keep a more consistent rhythm within each stanza. For instance, "But this is not all that is brought by the flames. So despite the sayings and despite the claims, Fire can be of virtue, protective and sane. Though even the brightest fall victim to rain" The first line has a kind of "in three" feel/rhythm. First stress on "this," second on "all," etc. The second line breaks this a bit, so I'd recommend adding something to keep the same stress pattern (bold would be stress): "So despite all the sayings and despite all of the claims" Like that, I think. Same for the third line (the fourth reads well). It helps to read it aloud sometimes. This may be nitpicking a gorgeous set of stanzas, but I did find myself stumbling in places when reading. Otherwise, good work as always.
  19. Out come at most 30 giraffes. Also, they're upside down? In goes my iced tea.
  20. What I noticed first was the Bohrok faceplate patterns on the head, so that is a nice touch. My only complaint would be that the perspective and angle of the right gun (from our perspective) relative to the left is a bit disorienting. I think it's supposed to be pointed at us, but something feels off. I can't really offer a solution, should it need one. As always, good work!
  21. I've always admired your MOCs for their combination of great designs and complicated functions. These two certainly follow in that tradition. Keep it up!
