    Dumb Jokes

    ^^^^^^CLICK^^^^^^ None of this is actually funny. Actually have no idea why I'm posting this. Other comics I've done...Legends of the Matoran - BEWARE, HERE BE OLD FORUMS.Kalmah's AMAZING InventionPerhaps other things? In the past? IN THE FUTURE?
  2. Oh yeah, of course they can. Derp.Most of mine seem to feature Karkat at his most human, like the Vriska/John/Karkat and Bilious Slick convos from the Doc segment. Maybe I should stop talking about Karkat. Like how Equius was the first to noticed Roxy. I found that pretty interesting for some reason, other than the fact they're both Void. And while in my bottom six trolls, I still like him as a character all the same, the creep that he is. Not really any characters I don't like.
  3. The whole Sufferer ide doesn't make any sense. That's why I think Hussie could make it work. Not that I think it holds any water, but there are definitely many shenanigans involved.His wings may be concealed under his cape.So many shenanigans, all of them in fact. I think having the Sufferer involved would be really weird. And also adding to what I said, surely Nepeta could tell the difference as well.And also gosh I hope so, because he needs to fly, he has to! If he gets to at some point, that'll be greater than the blood-brothers handshake he did with Jack all that time ago, still the most poignant moment for me. I guess this is the point where I ask for people's most poignant moment in the series, to promote some discussion, so go.Also, I do believe the Act 6 Flashes have been of a much higher calibre than the previous acts (excluding EoAs). In terms of quality, shock value, intrigue, hilarity (particularly visual gags like the sky writing), etc. Obvious exceptions being the Character Select Screens, but they don't count. Or do they?
  4. I would have had thought the strongest argument for dream bubbles being involved was the fact Roxy physically and very visibly entered a dream bubble, making it very clear from the beginning what was going to happen.Anyway, why on earth would a Beta!Sufferer be hanging out with an Alpha!Nepeta? Surely he could tell that they're not the same person? More the point, how on earth could he directly interact with her anyway in Dream Bubbles? It's either the Karkat we know and love, or a doomed version that somehow God Tiered. In any case, real mood whiplash when the flash was retconned, I was still happy when I saw GT Karkat, but thought it weird that Nepeta seemed alive as well. Then the retcon happened, and then they both were dead, just like my excitement.Also people keep pointing out he has no wings and then they say it's because they're small and nubby like his horns and that also makes me sad.
  5. Yeah, we really should have more comics like this. I really like the style you've given your art since goodness knows when, and it's been applied really well in comic form. Also these are pretty funny, which is doubly awesome too. I like the whole self-referential style of humour you use (at least that's what I think it is anyway). The long update schedule hardly matters when there is this much quality in the work. I'll have to remember to check back here every now and again.
  6. Bless me, it took till a week after posting this that I didn't have a new introduction for this weeks! Well done! Captain Flowers Captain Flowers has 1157 posts (4 Star Rating, 2718 Profile Views) and joined BZPower 9-April 06. He is currently most active in General Art, but used to be most active in BIONICLE Artwork: General Art (OK, so that's the same thing, but WHATEV-ER). He has an avatar of some cool drawing with some guys and a guitar, has a banner of Lelouch, wonders when there'll be an art contest (looks like sooner rather than later), has an AIM account, has played classical piano for 10 years (yes, I do envy that) as well as keyboard, hates to practise (but it has to be done), and lives in his own soul, as well as my beats. So...does that mean I've been plagiarising his whole being through my sickest of beats? Whoops. He last visited on the 18th of January 2012, and his birthday is the 22nd of December 1993. What amazement. Here's a calm banner. BZP Member List Trivia: There are (at the time of writing) 509 members starting with C that have more than 10 posts.

  7. This is a real beast of an MOC. The obvious connections to the Mata Nui boats give a great boost of nostalgia as well. But the design is solid and a great concept. I really like that colour scheme, the sorta silver and sand green or whatever it is. Very neat mechanisms too, like the wings and such, and they add to the mechanics of the 'ship' to give it added authenticity. Very well designed and a great twist on a classic.
  8. Sorry, I think I was one of the first who did it? In any case, my bad. I interpreted the rules that you could also state your position in the same way that you can state your preferred candidate. Obviously not, and I don't even really know how I came to that conclusion, the rules are pretty clear, it's a no brainer really. My mistake.
  9. Still an issue that bugs me, still don't tell people I'm in to LEGO that much. Hadn't received any sets in about three years until the Christmas just past, and it was great to get. I guess what I'm saying is, you should totally do it, because LEGO is pretty great. The only real reason why I wouldn't now is I'm often buying other things, and I have bad storage problems right now, heh.
  10. Took over a month since ordering, but don't care. Now I'm a huge MSPA geek forever.
  11. "I think we should seriously talk about your name, Roxy. I'm afraid your career choices may be limited to a Limozeen groupie or maybe an American Gladiator. [...] You don't meet too many Professors of Women Studies named Roxy." - Strongest of the Bads.But seriously the names are awesome. They are exemplary of their characters, Roxy for being that ditsy sort of girl, yet sciencey (also a sometimes shortening of Roseline, so that's pretty neat). Dirk because it rhymes with a word starting with a j, and all that stuff about it meaning leader or type of sword, clever. Everyone complains about him not being Dick, but at the end of the day, it would have been terrible. It's just because it goes against the overhyped and pretty much unfounded expectations previously established that there's this level of disappointment.Though what you did Kohila is pretty hilarious, I'm sorry.

    Kohli

    Makes me think of Kolhii each time I see his name. But yeah, it's been good to see that Australia is doing well again in cricket, absolutely destroying India at the moment over here. It's funny, because I was absolutely sure before the current series that it would be us that would be completely destroyed, I thought India were much better, but apparently not. But yeah, after a couple of bad years, things may be looking up again. Let's make it four-zip for the series, yes. This is obviously of no interest to most of you.
  13. Amazing what a little extra paint can do. This is yet another remarkable customisation from you Heir, it really looks great, does an excellent job of showing the battle-worn robot in all its glory. Also nice work on the stand, the Morbuzakh in particular is fantastic. Fantastic detail and great craftsmanship all round.Master of Fragmentation Rampant!!!
  14. What earth shattering revelations! Man, LEGO is going downhill fast!
  15. Bless my unlucky stars, it's Friday the 13th, and a week without blog entries! X-Ray X-Ray has 518 posts (4 Star Rating, 1450 Profile Views) and joined BZPower 15-June 08.

Lewis, as well as writing, and the rest of his interests are currently being renovated. Did not know an abstract concept such as 'interests' could be renovated, oh well. He last visited on the 1st of January 2012, and his birthday is the 6th of October 1995. Welcome to the new year! Here's a xylophone banner.

    Colbert

    As much of an awesome thing that would be, him/them actually becoming president/vice president would also be the dumbest thing at the same time. Also Stewart wouldn't dare. Anyway, the Super PAC seems to be a much better, more satirical and more ironic (and more effective?) alternative. What happens today and onwards should be hilarious though.
  17. Watching that, it's actually a really sweet thing to do. Good on him, and best of luck to the both of them. This whole story is filled with d'aww.
  18. This time exactly 11 years ago I was still living in Adelaide, probably still having no idea I was moving back south to my home state of Tasmania in only a couple of months time. I was a small nine and a half year old kid back then, now I'm a twenty and a half year old 'grown up'. In a couple of weeks that year I would hear about BIONICLE for the first time, and thought hey they look pretty neat, but why'd they replace Slizer, oh no. I was very much into LEGO at that stage, among things, which has certainly waned in the past several years. And yet I still think it's a great thing. BIONICLE shaped a lot about me. It boosted my interest in several different things, particularly animation and music, thanks mostly to Templar. It also added to my vast respect for symbols and iconography that I've had since as far back as I can remember. It added greatly for my thirst for knowledge and revelations, and somewhat regrettably to my somewhat obsessive and compulsive nature. Most importantly (and positively, though), it has done wonders for my creativity...it's helped showed me that I can be imaginative when I need to be.BZPower of course has been fundamental for that. It's given an outlet for many of us, through art, comics and writing (at times I've done all three). Places to show our theories, vent our frustrations about this story and our own lives, and generally bring a community of vastly different people of different backgrounds together who all like at least one thing. And we're not restricted to that, friendships have been built around all of these things, simply because this site existed. I'm not saying other sites don't do that, but this is the only site that immediately comes into mind in my own personal experience that exemplifies a true online community. I from time to time visited here, when I was on the trail for interesting images and things like that. I probably came here back in 2003 and saw some images of the new sets for the Northern Hemisphere summer or something like that, when they were appearing at a Comic Con or Toyfair or something like that. I didn't join (initially) till 2005, by that stage well into liking BIONICLE, and enjoying the story as much as I could without getting the comics (and the online comics were rarely if ever updated in those days). My interest in the site grew when I started reading the humorous comics found on here, in particular Chilli God's Rise and Fall of the Toa. It inspired me to start writing comics, as did CyberKN's Mask of Humour, and so I did a few months later. And then getting into the swing of the forum, becoming more known and getting to 'know' people, it was really fun.I was still a pretty immature 14/15 year old in those days, thinking he was a genius and all that. That was not true, but I stayed here long enough to mature and take everything in its stride. The only thing I haven't outgrown is setting myself up with truly overambitious tasks and then not bringing them to fruition...but I'm slowly working on that. I'm no longer in primary school, nor secondary nor even senior secondary school. I'm approaching my third year of my liberal arts degree, and I'm beginning to work music back into my life, the only thing I was ever truly good at. I like to think, in a nutshell, since I've really just been writing what's come to the top of my head, that BZPower has greatly influenced the way I approach things, by giving me the confidence to try new things, and I guess not worry so much about what other people think, because there are more like-minded people than you think, and they will have interest in what you have to say, you just gotta say it.Yeah I'm pretty sure I didn't finish this post the way I started. But that's life isn't it.
  19. These days I'd probably like to moderate either Artwork I or III, or the new Music and Movies forums, simply because it would give me reason to browse there because really I should more than I do. Check out the art and stuff, that would be cool.Other than that, probably General Discussion or something like that that I 'usually' post in anyway.
  20. Sorry about that, sometimes I forget to change all the pronouns/whatever. Mostly because I don't have to do it that often.

    Tintin Movie

    I don't think I mentioned the chase scene when I 'reviewed' it, but yeah, it's incredible! More than anything I found it quite amusing too, but to do all that in one shot and effectively is pretty great. I'd like to see it again for that as well, plus the opening few minutes, oh MAN, so good for a Tintin tragic. Glad you enjoyed it, being an outsider to the series and all. I do agree with the early pacing in the movie, a bit clunky at times. Personally I don't feel the same way for the books, at least not enough to remember. Also, yeah, I'd also recommend the animated series. I wouldn't be surprised if you had seen an episode or two in your time. It's really quite good, the music is very iconic and the whole thing is extremely faithful for the most part (Tintin in America being a huge exception, bleh). While the voices are really quite excellent, the vocal acting itself can be a bit off, if you get my meaning. Also the content is a little bit watered down, because, yeah, its a kids show, while the books are more young adultish, I guess. Still pretty intense though. Ultimately though the books are the way to go.
