    Lego City Undercover

    By Kraahlix,

    LCU is a blast. I've been enjoying the story, humor, gameplay, everything. It's some of the most fun I've had on Wii U, and any game console for that matter. Highly recommended. =)

    Greg And Canon

    By Kraahlix,

    Hello everyone.
     
    If you haven't tried it yet, you should watch MoL while listening to this. It was a lot of fun to record. =)
     
    The topic of Greg F. has come up with me a few times, and I have to say, I highly doubt he will be returning. That might seem like common sense now, but I often get asked about his status because of my "ties" with him. I wouldn't say that I have ties with Greg, especially not anymore. I know it's not good news, but I don't want people holding out hope anymore. If Greg comes back, it should be surprising to everyone at this point.
     
    As for my opinion of how the fandom should function on our own, it's a tough subject. We'll never get everyone to agree on some kind of canonization system, and I think that would hurt the community. I do think that we should look to Bonesiii for the other contest that he got approved by Greg, because that's really the last approved piece of canon material that we have. I also think we should treat the ATYU2 stories as canon, and feature them as they deserve to be featured. There's concern that it isn't as secure as the old methods, but I think we do need to adapt at least in this regard. Because the themes were approved and the stories went through strict judging, I think it's time to let them in.
    Because my story was among the winners, I do hate to put my opinion out like this. However, I believe if I was just a judge and not an entrant I would feel the same way. =)

    A T Y U I I Results

    By Kraahlix,

    They're up!
     
    My story, Retribution, is canon. Lovely, right? (Archive)
    I'll get around to reposting it in the forums here sometime.
     
    My buddy Grant-Sud's story is also a winner, and I really enjoyed that one.
     
    I don't remember which other stories I judged, but I hope to see these given a lot of attention and discussion.
    This is some of the only storyline we get, so enjoy the new entries in the BIONICLE canon and congratulate the winners. =)

    Here are a few "sightings" of BIONICLE that I forgot to mention:

    You can totally get your fat head on a Tahu Nuva. I wanted this so bad, but it was like stinking $25 of course.
     

    You know when you go to your car to eat lunch because you just spent over $60 on admission and you are too cheap to buy they're rip-off nasty food? This is what you get on your hand.
     
    That's not my hand btw.
     

    And this is supposedly a BIONICLE ride. It was almost fun. =)

    Loose Ends List #1

    By Kraahlix,

    I finally got around to compiling the first version of the Loose Ends in BIONICLE list. The topic got a lot of activity during a trip of mine, so I got behind. But it's up now. =)
     
    I don't know how LEGO's new social media interaction rule will effect the BSS, and maybe they don't either yet. Because of that, I don't know what will be done with the list at this point, but at least we have it for reference.
     
    Speaking of the new rule, I'm going to miss PMing Greg. It's why I joined BZP four years ago. Maybe the staff will come up with a good replacement as a solution, but it still probably won't be the same.

    Av/sig

    By Kraahlix,

    Got a new set.


     
    If anyone actually knows what they're from, they get 10 points.
    I kinda just threw the avatar and signature together though. =/ If anyone awesome at photo editing wants to fix them up, have at it.

    Loose Ends In Bionicle

    By Kraahlix,

    We all have those missing details that bug us. Luckily, SPIRIT and I got permission to start compiling a list of them, which could help us work with Greg to get them resolved, if he would like to.

    By Kraahlix,

    I took Cholie's advice. =P
     
    And again, thanks to Cykron for the original drawing! See the below post for an explanation.

    Bucket Head

    By Kraahlix,

    I should have posted this piece of BS01 member artwork earlier, but I was reminded today!
     
    1) Bucket Head, if you recall, was the nickname of the Skrall in Greg Farshtey's BIONICLE 5 treatment.
    2) I was given the following award from Swert:
    The Skrall Naming Award
    Tuma has decided to award this Skrall a name. It should be happy.
    This Skrall's new name is now Bucket Head.
    (Basically this award means this person has proven that they have worked above and beyond the duties of an average BS01 member. This is determined by no written standard. Because of this, they are now a "named" Skrall. They will only be nicknames.)
    3) Cykron drew this picture of me:

     
    (A spoof of the BIONICLE Comic 14 cover)
     
    Thanks, Cykron!

    I'm Baaaaack

    By Kraahlix,

    My clip was used in the latest Powercast, hooray. =)
     
    Kayru gave me a custom Matoro Inika model for Christmas. I'll arrange a photo-shoot and give you guys some pictures soon.
     
    I might have some kind of special episode coming out on the BS01 Podcast to celebrate our anniversary some more, but I'm pretty busy right now. As usual when I get back from a trip, things pile up that I have to attend to.
     
    I was going to see Tangled today, but the movie theater shut down. I don't know what that was about, because it's never happened before. Has anyone seen it, and what did you think?
  16. Kraahlix
    I figured I would do one more productive thing before briefly vanishing.
     
    The BZPower topic for the BS01 Podcast needed some big overhauling, and I also figured that Dorek would not want to edit the thing every week. I made a new one, and you can find it here. Use that topic to contact us for any participation you would like to do in the segments (including Q&A), and also use it for all general feedback.

    Anniversarycast Recorded

    By Kraahlix,

    We got to record our one year anniversary podcast today, but Topical Discussion requests are still welcome. =)
     
    You'll get the episode on the 26th, the same date as the first one.
     
    I'll be too busy to be around here much before or after that, so enjoy your Christmas and I'll see you in January!

    Bs01 Podcast Anniversary

    By Kraahlix,

    We actually have an anniversary coming up on the 26th...
     
    Is that right? I really don't remember posting a podcast the DAY after Christmas... It doesn't seem right. =P
    But I guess it is. Anyway, we plan on doing some celebration.
     
    I'd like to record an anniversary show to be released on the 26th, but that honestly might not happen. I will post some kind of podcast that day, but I'm just letting you know that it might not be a full new episode. However it ends up, though, you have something to look forward to!
     
    If anybody has requests for a Topical Discussion, just let me know.

    Too much computer/video game time for Kraah? Perhaps...
     
    I have discovered two evidences thus far.
     
    Evidence #1) When I think about things like throwing something away, or getting rid of anything, the word my mind uses is delete. No joke.
     
    Evidence #2) While driving, there is one road that I take once or twice a week. The road is so small that I often think to myself; "Is this road really supposed to be 2 Player?" I mean to ask myself if they really expect two lanes to function at once...
     
    o_O I worry myself.

    Black Friday

    By Kraahlix,

    I debated about getting up this morning for some Black Friday shopping insanity. In the end, though, there was nothing that I really wanted...
    Plus, people always have the habit of ramming their carts into my ankles, and I really don't know what's up with that.
    I just stayed home.
     
    I was happy to find some Xbox Live sales though.
    I picked up;
    Portal: Still Alive ($5)
    Splosion Man ($2)
    Mega Man 10 ($5)
     
    And I saved... like $13 or something. Woot for Black Friday.

    Updates

    By Kraahlix,

    In no particular order...
     
    2nd place in a Smash Bros. Brawl tournament. I think that my skill level is now considered "maximum," so that was happy. I'm training up for some more upcoming Brawl tournaments. Let me know if you want to play some Brawl online (although, it's a completely different game with the lag).
     
    I've been sick for almost a week now. >_> Geez.
     
    Episode 12 of the BS01 Podcast will be released today. It's been due for quite a while now. The recording turned out pretty badly, so please bear with the salvaged remains. =) It's a great show, ignoring the difficulties. Sorry about that.
     
    My Internet went out for a day. Now that it's back, I'll add that to my list of things to be thankful for. =P
     
    I saw Harry Potter 7 and did not enjoy it. I seem to be largely alone in that...

    Bs01 Podcast Meeting

    By Kraahlix,

    We just had, like... a two hour podcast meeting.
     
    I think it went well, so look forward to some improvements to the BS01 Podcast!
     
    The meeting was a struggle, being sick, though. =P
