I never really got Bionicle. I came in too late to know what was going on in the plot, and the pieces were too prefabricated for me to think of them as LEGOs

But then the disc and ball launchers made great addons for my Mindstorms robots

Well that's why: the older sets were much more versatile. The newer ones had far less flexibility.

Yeah one of the reasons why I stopped being a LEGO MOC builder. The pieces got so weird and you can only use them in certain places. Plus, they were freaking expensive as hell.

I sure do miss the days of making a LEGO city in my attic that was my room, but also a German oven.

I've been recently banned from the old TF2Wiki, thus losing all of my amazing admin abilities in the process.

My crime?

[url:1al01u0n]http://tf2wiki.net/w/index.php?title=Main_Page&oldid=147425[/url:1al01u0n] Allowing that to happen to the main page.

It was fun while it lasted.

It's okay. SPUF wanted to have a raid on the old website, and I had the power to allow it to happen. It was well-used power-abuse.

Besides, I got the Filmmaker today and I've added another charming alien to my private mod.

Granted, the Bullsquid (not above) and the Alien Grunt (above) are available to anyone with the internet, but I'm enjoying myself.

ADDENDUM:

I've been promoted to Administrator over on the Ricochet Wiki. With my 6 edits total, I'm on the fast track to glory!

My journey into the world of coding continues, as I attempt to add/fix more lovely aliens for Half-Life 2: Episode 4: Danger Dingos.

However, the Advisor is still braindead, the Houndeye crashes the game on attack (it's so very confusing), and the Alien Controller (not pictured, from Half-Life 1) doesn't even allow Visual Studio to finish building without some error or another.

Bear in mind, I have NO IDEA what I am doing, since I have NO experience with coding at all!

No idea is the best idea

HL2:EP4:DD sounds like the kind of studio-quality game I'd shell out good money for.

Me and my unbelievably well-funded studio already have a list of great name ideas for our future titles, including:

[list:1xzpf2db]
[:1xzpf2db]Scottish Mind Control 3000[/:m:1xzpf2db]
[:1xzpf2db]Aero Afro Summoner[/:m:1xzpf2db]
[:1xzpf2db]Apathetic Octopus Uncensored[/:m:1xzpf2db]
[:1xzpf2db]Intelligent Elevator Chronicles[/:m:1xzpf2db]
[:1xzpf2db]The Quest for the Sailboat of Doom[/:m:1xzpf2db][/list:u:1xzpf2db]

We may have used a random game-name-generator found on the Internet, but if it saves money, use it; that way, there's more money to go around at the quasi-annual money-burning festival.

I still need to actually NAME the studio, so that when we buy out Valve, they'll know who to send the hats to.

Does the studio happen to hire [strike:2deaue1s]CEOs[/strike:2deaue1s] employees at this time of the year?

We're hiring at every time of the year, just not night time, which it is right now.

We're hoping it's going to be "Game of the Year."

Unrelated:

SEVERAL HOURS LATER, A WILD ERROR APPEARS!

[code:nlmyhv2p]
DataTable warning: No matching RecvTable for SendTable 'DT_AlienController'.
Host_EndGame: CL_ParseClassInfo_EndClasses: server and client classes for 'CNPC_AlienController' use different datatables (server: DT_AlienController, client: DT_NPC_AlienController)
[/code:nlmyhv2p]

:atlas_facepalm:

I feel like crying almost. I have no idea why it decided to break on me like this, when the image above shows that it WAS working fine.

Don't everyone jump up at once to help. -_-

I think you should buy everyone a copy of Ricochet.

Also Borderlands. While you're at it and spending money on keeping these forums vital and everything, why not just buy everybody all the things?

Double posting ftw.

Never got the sale for Borderlands, I guess (am dissapoint), but I did order a new vidya card; uses less power and is better at everything. So everything works out for the better.
