  1. Thanks. I use ALZO 45W CFL Video-Lux® Photo Light Bulb 5600K and 30 Watt Compact Fluorescent Full Spectrum Photo Bulb. Between all those lights is a light box usually but taken down right now since I am not doing photos and I don't want the cat in it. Yes, I use it to just dump parts in sometimes for a project. Right now it has quite a lot of old dark gray parts from my new dragon cave (still in production). That's pretty good, I started out stacking like that but it's a LOT faster to find parts i need when they are only stacked two-high. That is why I went with the shelving. I get the cheap plastic shelving which is sturdy enough for the lego, not to high for me (5'7") and easy to rearrange and move.
  2. Well I just got a photo of my whole LEGO room (except the closet which I was standing in). Along the two walls is shelving which holds bins of sorted parts (by type), top of shelves is mostly small drawer systems for more fine grain sorting. Tables are for building. The tan 5 drawer unit is where I keep basic bricks sorted by size and plates 4x4 and larger. Under the table is unsorted stuff. Closet is unopened sets and more boxes of unsorted stuff. Hopefully this is a good overview of a few different sorting methods in one photo.
  3. thanks for the feedback and pass. I was much more confused in this game as a vanilla townie then I was in cirque as the cop. I felt like I couldn't trust anyone and even the cop, who was revealing thing in the thread - which I found very suspect. By the end I was extremely frustrated and even though I was right about one person, as you could see by votes I was fooled by the other. I think I did learn some things from this game though, which is the point of a school game (right?). It also seemed to me that people I contacted that I wanted to trust were not very responsive, so that's why I didn't push so hard on PMs. I instantly suspected Christos after he contacted me in PM though. Why didn't I see through Pirelly, unknown.
  4. That was a good game. I was so confused on the last day, should have gone with my original thought and not let PMs sway my thinking. Anyway I'm glad we won and at least one person I suspected really was scum.
  5. Hi my guild :) I'm just checking in, nothing new to post yet but I am working on a tower. I have not decided which mini to build but will get onto one of them at least. The towers so far are just amazing. I hope my effort can hold water.
  6. Interesting style. A bit of shaky-cam action/people walking in the background but I think it shows a lot of promise. Be careful using that copyright protected music though. You don't want to get a huge fine over a short film you did for fun.
  7. Wow, such a web of lies - but which is the web and which is the spider? Afraid I'll have to just go with a gut feeling on this one, tomorrow ought to be interesting. There is only one thing for certain: After tonight, you scum will have nowhere to hide. unvote: Pirelly Dabito (piratedave84) vote: Sir Carrots(scubacarrot)
  8. Ok. Maybe I took it too hard but I really did forget, not about the it completely but about posting in it. unvote: Skip Pudding,The Man of Law (Skipper) vote: Pirelly Dabito (piratedave84)
  9. Vote: Skip Pudding,The Man of Law (Skipper) I don't know if Skip is town or scum but he is in the unconfirmed group, he PM'd me and then used my reply to attack me (Day 3). Whether or not that was because he is scum, that is a rotten thing to do. Very low down thing to do to anyone.
  10. Excellent review and photos. Love the little comic you did at the end too. I am happy to see so many of the tiles in this set, pretty cool. I think this is the only place to get non-trans colors so far.
  11. Now suddenly there are two people claiming to be the cop, even though one was killed already (and I understand you are quoting from a PM that is old before he was killed). This is getting to be quite the quagmire of lies. I wish I could vote for more than one person sometimes. What a mess. I have nothing else to add at the moment.
  12. Cool, thanks for the review. I got this set but have not opened it yet. It is disapointing about the groom and he should have a dual sided face with nervous expression - never known a groom that didn't have that! I think the bride torso is nice, veil is nice, skirt is meh but maybe a short skirt will be useful for little girl in a dress. I think using the foam parts is pretty meh too. The only other thing that could have improved the bride is if the color of the tiara would have matched her dress, it's common for a bride to have tiara that matches and a silver/white dress would get a silver or whitegold tiara not a yellow gold one.
  13. Maybe I've been buying too many licensed sets lately that I think this is a decent price. The way I look at it is that the minifigure is nice, not plain, the truck is nice, and most of all the dino is great. I did say in my review that $25 would have been better. Glad you enjoyed it. I only used the stickers because it was a review
  14. Cinna smiles at Bluto, having been reminded of her water-mage sister. "If you can help us find these ingredients and stick with the group, yeah come along and learn something of the world. It's not good for young mages to be cooped up at home all their lives anyway."
  15. "I'm not the jealous type, or am I? Well I'm glad to be rid of those sirens. I'm glad you boys didn't get hurt after all. Thothwick, will you be alright after a night's rest?" "I think I will keep one remedy and give one remedy to Thothwick." "So, young Bluto. You are a sneaky one, aren't you? I think maybe you should stay below decks where it's safe and maybe the captain has a brig for you if you don't behave. Captain, is there something Bluto can work on, maybe he can help clean the floors?"
  16. Battle Order Cinna Thothwick Thormanil Bartholomew "I will attack Siren (Blue) with Darkness from the back row. Thothwick, please attack Siren (Green) since the other two can't help at all. Thormanil and Bartholomew, please make sure that boy doesn't attack us."
  17. "Well we can't stop here, this is Siren country. So let's just try and catch the boy, I have to keep steering the ship or we'll crash." (don't I?) "I think if nobody sees a rope or has a rope, maybe just try to grab the boy. Any ideas appreciated, but the sooner we get out of here the better."
  18. "Ack! Little boy, what are you doing here? Wait where are you going? Sirens!!" All this is said in a matter of moments. Cinna looks over at her comrades who are not looking so great themselves. "We must get rid of these Sirens but must not stop the ship. Can you guys fight at all or are you in love?"
  19. "Thanks guys, I must admit I was beginning to be worried about staying up here all alone."
  20. The new detailed "alien" figures are a really good thing, it will mean less likely to see kids using sharpie and paint to horribly detail a Watto figure (for example). Battle damage helmets and such, I like on the one hand (again, now the kids don't have to ruin things) but for my own "play" I would like it if a figure included dual side head with scar/no-scar and two helmets damaged/undamaged so that it could be switched out. I was one of the many people who hated any head that wasn't "classic" - so exoforce, fleshies, etc. I sold off almost everything that was "ugly" before I realized how that type of thinking was just limiting my creativity. I've since rebuilt a collection of fleshies and exoforce and even clone wars heads. Though I'm still not a huge fan of the clone wars eyes, I'm beginning to warm up to the idea. As far as details, so far it all looks great and I'm happy to see it. I think it would be nice if they would concentrate on not having the huge modified heads though, such as Wookie. I would rather it be a modified head that can turn like a normal head, and a breastplate for the rest...something like that. Heads that don't articulate really irk me.
  21. "What a long and yet uneventful voyage. Thank you for the safe ride so far, captain. I'd love be happy to steer the ship while all the men-folk hide from the Sirens. By the way, do they do anything other than sing and try to lure men into the sea? I mean, should I be worried about things hitting me in the head and such?"
  22. That is a good point you bring up. Carrots is not "confirmed" town as far as I know. Just being in touch with the cop since the beginning doesn't mean confirmation of town, it can mean a very lucky/clever scum that is taking us down from inside.
  23. A lot of great information has been discussed so far today, I think we have it pretty narrowed down. PMs seem to be flying, and I have a few myself. I don't know who to vote for right now. The scum are smart, it is very likely at least 1 of the PMs I have is from scum but which one? With the small list of possible scum, I'll just address each person now and go from there after responses come. Skip, why would you sacrifice yourself like that instead of saying Wully should take out the next person of the list? Is this to make it look like you are a very helpful townie? Christos, your posts are so thoughtful and well formed. You are very clever, and I think that is exactly the kind of thing it takes for scum to live this long. Pirelly, I still think what you did yesterday is suspicious. I know you were saying you panicked and said too much too quick and that is understandable. Still, I'm suspicious. Wully, I'm sorry but sometimes it feels like perhaps you have been playing us the whole time. Yes when you were in doubt you killed one scum. However, since then you have not killed any and if last night had worked out for you it would have been another townie down. Please know I'm just trying to get to the bottom of this like everyone else (except the scum who are just trying to trick us and turn us on each other). Another thing that hasn't been brought up yet - we never got all the puzzle parts. What if the puzzle doesn't mean what we think it means? What if there are more than 2 scum left? What if what if what if..just something to think about for a bit while folks are deciding on votes.
  24. I think that actually impossible, I believe I read a rule about it - investigator is not allowed to investigate itself. Anyway, I'm definitely not an investigator and I am most assuredly a townie. Yes I do realize this post is not adding much and might get some comments about how I'm not adding much, but I did want to comment on that statement and if having nothing else to add looks bad - well, there's nothing I can do about that right now.
  25. Cinna looks around in wonder, lost in curiosity of the ship itself, she hardly notices the strangeness of the captain and his first mate. "What an amazing ship. How fast does she move?" She peers down at the map. "This straight, looks a bit tight there, do you think we'll have any problems getting through? I've not been across the ocean myself before."
