Shadows

Plenty of room to sharpie something on ;-)

Motorcycle sidecar. Let's just all hope it isn't a recycled head. Oh, heads will roll, and I don't just mean minifig scale. >:-(

Right! Sloshing is definitely the sound associated with a scuba clad treacherous scoundrel creeping about the ship looking for, or trying to get to, something. As for Stinky... without a face, how sure can anyone be that it even is Stinky? Just imagine... if Stinky 2 is really Stinky, the dead man could be anyone, including a third accomplice who Stinky 2 murdered during the attempted theft. Does anyone else find it coincidental that there have been no further sightings of the monster since our two friends arrived in the boat? And don't worry Stinky 2 (I can't remember your new name :-$ ), I wasn't suggesting they murder you *mutters* the way I think you murdered whoever it was that we're to believe is Stinky you sloshing monster in disguise *stops muttering*, I'm just suggesting they put one in your leg (sans hip flask) and take the boat to safety.

*whispering again* I meant shoot both of you and take your boat, unless you know something about the working order of your boat that the rest of us don't... >:-) :-D And on that note, I wish you all ... a good Knight. Me. 500th post party! *sweet*

Yep, definitely part of a town building. The cowboy is the central focus of it anyway, so that's cleared up *y*

Would it be considered Cowboys or Indians if my first vignette features 3 Indians, a Cowboy, and part of a town building? I want to be sure so I don't make another vignette of the same type and end up having to choose.

Why not just shave the winners name into the back of the loser's hair? I mean, come on guys, grow a pair and make this a real bet :-P INSTIGATE ON! *y*

EXCELLENT! I think this just might come together. Keep posting guys and once some of the contests clear out around here, we'll fire this bad boy up! DON'T PANIC ON! *y*

You've seen Chuck in a skirt too, haven't you? ;-) *y*

Uh huh, you would say that, Mr. Fellow Conspirator :-P *whispers* You guys should still shoot both of 'em and take the boat *stops whispering* >:-)

Episode III. Easily. In his constant attempt to go against anything and everything ever written by any author, Lucas warped and twisted the entire story into a series of annoying and whiny scenes. Episode III was the movie with the most potential. Position the epic battle at the beginning, reveal Vader by midpoint, and slaughter Jedi for the rest. It's simple. It's effective. It's exactly what they didn't do. It was the biggest disappointment of all, because of what it could have been. Episode I, surprisingly, has grown into a fairly tolerable movie in my eyes. I didn't like it at first, I'll admit, but over time I've seen where it was a difficult starting point and manages to set things up fairly well. It wasn't Episode I that failed, it was the followups. To be honest, outside of LEGO, the prequels don't exist in my world. Well, almost. I still love the soundtrack to Episode I, which was also the best of the prequel soundtracks, bar none. I may reply in more detail later.

So did Gene's wife. Can't blame her, it's creepy to me, it had to be bizarre for her. :-/

Advertising! It's mostly about pumping out crap anyway X-D

Maybe if he forgot his meds, he could have done this: They'll update anything, won't they?

It doesn't get any froodier than this, that's for sure. Oh, and along with your words of Douglas Adams wisdom, please mention whether you'd actually be able to participate in the building portion of things, so we'll know if there's enough competition out there to make it a fun outing. We certainly can't have it end up being me against Staudie, it wouldn't be fair to the kid X-D

As one of the loyal viewers, I think you're certainly either heading in the right direction, or where that sneaky narrator wants you to go. Either way, it should be entertaining. Remember: When you started pushing your 'rescuers', one had to disappear for a bit. Was he planting a bomb? Disabling his own radio in case you overpowered them and tried to force the issue? Looking for something? Also... diving gear. Stinky 'dead', but was that Stinky or is Stinky 2 really him, faking his own death and swimming out to the other boat that was waiting for him as pre-arranged? Stinky's death may have been a red herring. It sure smells like one. ;-)

Nothing says LEGO to me like a flaming spear in the chest! :-P Indy On! *y*

Yes, be sure to submit those extra questions and expect quite the interesting look into our boy Staudie here. I'm sure he doesn't mind my calling him Staudie, since I've taken a look deep into his twisted mind and survived to tell the tale. :-X Expect to find out things you've never imagined! *wacko*

UPDATED! ... annoying, isn't it? With the recent appreciation shown to the literary genius of Douglas Adams, Mr. Mandalorian and I thought it might be time to spread his influence even farther throughout the realm of LEGO, so we have a proposal. Vignettes (following the generally accepted vignette standard) representing your favourite scenes from his many works. If that isn't possible, perhaps scenes representing famous quotes from said works, but given a different twist in some form (which shouldn't be difficult, some are fairly twisted as is). Wait, you haven't read any? You can read, can't you? I mean, it isn't going to do me much good to ramble on here if you can't actually read, and your lack of exposure to Adams makes me doubt your literacy. No, seriously, I'm not sure I can continue on. Now I have to wonder if you've been faking it all this time, just scanning the pages and oohing and aahing over the pretty pictures. You're a fake, aren't you? Prove me wrong! Now's the time! Don't be a loser any longer and you might just be the winner you've always dreamed of. What do we have to offer? Absolutely nothing. Hopefully, a kind soul who does have things to offer will come along and bless us with some kind of generous offer, but until then, this is purely for the sake of doing something interesting within your community here. What do we want from you? Interest. If you're interested in this noble endeavour, please post here and let us know. Provide some input. Add your favourite quotes. If enough interest is shown and there are no objections from above (and by above, I mean the powers that be here at EB, of course), we'll see about making this a go. Let us know. Entries should be submitted by 10/14/07. If that presents a problem, we'll take a vote of some kind, draw straws, play poker, and when we're done I'll let you enter a day late. Materials: Any form of LEGO. Yes, this could be the first contest to ever end up with a winning entry in Duplo, Quatro, Belville, whatever you've got, just as long as it has a base occupying a space no greater than 8x8. Materials2: No custom pieces except stickers. Overhanging parts, within reason, certainly allowed. Digital entries will be allowed, within reason. Don't use every rare part on the planet, use the kinds of things you have in your real inventory. And now for some inspiration: Mr. Mandalorian and imperialshadows Propositionists Extraordinare

Great comic, good to see the chocolate pudding walrus megabloks mud wrestling theme put to such good use. Should be a promising little competition, but is there a building theme or is this really a completely wide open one this time?

Wow, somehow I missed seeing this. What an impressive layout, hope to see more of it! Oh, and I'm 190 and also of the Cafe Corner, 6-wide school, though I really get nostalgic sometimes for the 80's era houses and even appreciate some of the old 70's Swiss Chalet type stuff. Takes all kinds of tastes in LEGO, and there's room for us all. Kick @$$ Town On! *y*

... says the guy with the rainbow fresh avatar X-D

The loser must end all posts with: Thus sayeth the gospel according to <insert winner name here>, for he is my master and I am not worthy to spitshine his chaps. Maybe not. *wacko*
