Eurobricks Event 2010 in Billund.
Quarryman replied to Ras 74's topic in LEGO Events and User Groups
Well, it is the cheapest and easiest at least. But I haven't talked to Freddie yet, so we'll see. Either way, we'll be there, and that's the important part. -
Important: Do not post in the Day threads if you're not a player Day 5 Satisfied about the results of the night Barney Vance was on his way back to his quarters. But behind him came someone with nasty intentions. Really nasty intentions. Really really nasty intentions. And soon Barney lay dead in a pool of his own blood. As usual the crew was again met by Ivanova on the screen. Good morning everyone. Today I seem to only have bad news again, one death last night, Barney Vance who was not-infected. 8 Days remaining until black hole's gravitational pull will be too strong for our engines to achieve escape velocity. And in the interest of actually getting some voting going: If there's no conviction today it's quite likely that there will be some tragic accident occuring to someone completely at random the next night. Rules (borrowed from Dragonator ) This game will follow the basic conventions of a Mafia Game. Each "Day", you will be given 96 real hours in which to vote for someone to kill. The day will end as soon as a majority decision is reached, or when the 4 days are up. If someone has been convicted, you will find out their loyalty shortly after end of the day. After this a night phase will begin, which will last 48 real hours. Then the cycle will repeat. Those players with night actions must PM them to me during the night phase. If I do not receive them within the 48 hours, they will not be counted. - There are two main sides in the game, not-infected and infected. Your winning criteria is included with your character PM. - Voting is to be done in the day thread, and should follow the following format: Vote: Character (Player). Please note the use of bold. This is the only format that will be accepted. To unvote someone, the same applies: Unvote: Character (Player). - There will be no voting in the first 24 hours of a game Day. - No unvoting after a conviction has been reached. Do this more than once and you will be killed. - You may not edit your posts. Do this more than three times and you will be killed. - Out of character (OOC) posts should be kept in the Discussion thread. - No metagaming. - There are no clues in the pictures, so don't look for them. - Do not post in the Day threads when dead. You're dead, act like it. - Do not ever directly quote something the game moderator has sent to you via PM, whether it be your character information, night action results, or any other form of communication. Violation of this rule will result in a moderator kill. You may of course paraphrase any information you receive; if it is your own words then it is fine. - Do not discuss game tactics or "play the game" outside the game thread, including in the General Discussion thread. You may communicate privately via PM, but this is at your own risk, and should be considered part of playing the game. - Please be considerate towards the host. I will try my best to stick to the schedule, and your cooperation will help this greatly, particularly getting night actions in promptly. Voting may start at 23:50 UTC Thursday, 3rd of December. On Day 5 it takes 8 votes to convict. Players Alive Lt. Cmdr. Susan Antares played by Shadows Lt. Varax Fraa, navigator played by Inertia Specialist Niwrad Selrac, communications played by Black Rabbit Security chief Michael Sheridan played by Hinckley Leonard "Leo" Nyer, chief engineer played by Ricecracker La'h'Rok, reactor chief played by I Scream Clone Engofi Cheipo, hydroponics engineer played by Eskallon Android S/N: 'AHY6CEF3' (aka DAVE) played by Mr. Mandalorian Khrum, "the strong guy" played by stash2sixx Wicwa, alien cook played by Sandy Ivan "the terrible", human cook played by Darth_Legois Florentzia Lizar, head of research staff played by jimbutcher Ada Bergsndot, computer specialist played by Zepher Ernev Seluj, language specialist played by Dragonator Nurse Edna Hylris played by pedro The Dead 2nd Lt.

Eurobricks Event 2010 in Billund.
Quarryman replied to Ras 74's topic in LEGO Events and User Groups
Yeah, I think so too, a "økonomi-bilpakke" Larvik-Hirtshals-Larvik costs only 1190 NOK, and driving to Larvik doesn't take long either. -
Eurobricks Event 2010 in Billund.
Quarryman replied to Ras 74's topic in LEGO Events and User Groups
Been doing some quick checks now. As far as I can see crossing to Hirtshals or Fredrikshavn leaves us with just about the same amount of driving in Denmark (275 km vs 271 km according to Google Maps), so that is not a relevant factor in my opinion. Don't see the point of sailing all the way down to Copenhagen really. Stena Line from Oslo to Fredrikshavn seems to take 12 hours, so I think that one's out of the question (I'd rather arrive at the Legoland village a bit late Wednesday evening than having to get up way too early in Fredrikshavn Thursday morning ) That leaves us with two options the way I see it, either driving down to Gothenburg and join up with the swedes there (4 hours driving to Gothenburg, 3 hours 15 minutes ferry), or driving to Larvik (2 hours driving) and take the ferry to Hirtshals (3 hours 45 minutes ferry). The major problem for me is of course how many days I can take off from work, I really should be there at least part of the day the 21st, but even taking the Gothenburg route this is doable. I assume you're leaving Gothenburg some time in the afternoon the 21st? Either with the ferry that leaves at 16:00 or the one that leaves at 18:30? -

Quarryman replied to Ras 74's topic in LEGO Events and User Groups
That's good to hear Me and Freddie have been talking about driving to the event, as it's not that far to Billund and it allows us to buy more lego Then again, I see flights with Norwegian are currently at 441 NOK for a return trip on suitable dates (leaving in the evening the 21st and returning in the evening the 25th) from Gardermoen to Billund, so it might be it's just as easy to do that. Even after adding transport to the airport and luggage fee (55 NOK per bag per flight) it's still a quite cheap trip. This does however leave the problem of getting the lego home, especially if one wants to buy large sets. As for your other questions I'll leave those to Ras -
Indeed, it is. Final vote count: Lt. Cmdr. Susan Antares / Shadows: 5 (I Scream Clone, pedro, Ricecracker, JimButcher, Sandy) Engofi Cheipo / Eskallon: 4 (Hinckley, zepher, Stash2Sixx, Svelte) La'h'rok / I Scream Clone: 1 (Shadows) No vote: 6 (Black Rabbit, Darth_Legois, Dragonator, Eskallon, Inertia, Mr. Mandalorian) As 9 votes were needed to convict, Day 4 has ended without a conviction. It is now Night, those with night actions have 48 hours to send them to me in a PM or they won't be counted. The sooner I receive the night actions the sooner I can prepare Day 5, thank you. (and a final note to those wishing for clues: You have to deserve them first. No votes = No clues. Go ahead and make some convictions and you might see some clues appearing )

And yay for quick players, Day 4 is up. (and yes, I do need to a) build another corridor, and b) take some more pics of Ivanova ) -
Important: Do not post in the Day threads if you're not a player Day 4 Late at night, a solitary mysterious figure making it's way along a corridor aboard the Gagarin. Though not alone, following close behind, another mysterious figure. "Hey, you, what are you up to?" "Stopping you from doing any mischief tonight." Unnoticed by any of the two figures a third mysterious figure snuck into the corridor, deciding wisely to stay away from the first two. ..who soon started to fight ..and just as soon the fight was over. Behind lay a mysterious figure, unconscious. Next morning the crew was again met by Ivanova on the screen. Good morning everyone. Today I seem to only have good news, as no one was killed this night. So, only thing for you to do is to get on with the negotiations. 9 Days remaining until black hole's gravitational pull will be too strong for our engines to achieve escape velocity.

Everything will be revealed once the game is over, I have no further comments. -
Hehe, you just had to didn't you.. Definitely better than the original Brickbeard's Revenge, but it also shows how much better the 10210 sails are compared to these glaring ones We still need a comparison shot of the 10210 and the Black Seas Barracuda though, get to it

That's what the preview button is for, it will also refresh the thread and then you can see if there's been any new posts you have to address. Anyway, the conclusion to Day 3 has been posted. -
Wow Thanks a lot, now I want this even more Was planning on trying to convince my family to get me this for my birthday in February, but now I just might have to get it earlier than that And I'm very happy that we're getting the new hull pieces in dark brown, that's very welcome

Vote count: Sir Dillon / Sarah Ohce: 9 (Shadows, Hinckley, Svelte, JimButcher, Zepher, Darth_Legois, Dragonator, Stash2Sixx, Eskallon) Non-voters: 8 ( Black Rabbit, Inertia, I Scream Clone, Mr. Mandalorian, pedro, Ricecracker, Sandy, Sir Dillon) As it takes 9 votes to convict, Sarah Ohce has been convicted, and will be thrown out an airlock shortly. Everyone watched eagerly as Sarah Ohce were shoved into an airlock by Khrum, and flushed out into space. Soon she started drifting away from the ship. And after a few moments her head exploded after being exposed to the vacuum. ..but no parasitic creatures showed up. Clearly they had been mistaken, Sarah Ohce was not-infected. Grumbling and anxious about what the night would bring the crew returned to their quarters to try to get some sleep. It is now Night, those with night actions have 48 hours to send them to me in a PM, if I haven't received them within those 48 hours they will not be counted.

Go and take a look, Day 3 is up. -
Important: Do not post in the Day threads if you're not a player Day 3 Late at night Jad Suur lay awake thinking about his situation, when someone requested entrance. As Jad knew he could have important visitors at any time during the Night he quickly got up to open the door. Except his visitor was, though clearly deadly important, not the right kind of important. Jad Suur was gutted like a fish on his own floor, dying a painful death. And too late the alien Ast decided to leave its host body Jad Suur, it died on the floor of Jad's quarters. Elsewhere Dr. Ben Elegnem woke up by someone requested entrance. Vary after what had happened to Fassin Trevlac last night he still got up to check who it was. And he was indeed correct in his varyness. A quick cut across the stomach was satisfactory for the mysterious figure who cleaned up and left. Behind lay Dr. Ben Elegnem in a pool of his own blood. Next morning the crew was again met by Ivanova on the screen. Good morning everyone. I have both good news and bad news. The good news is of course that as you've all seen on the video Jad Suur was infected Dr. Ben Elegnem was however not-infected. That's it, now get going with today's discussion.

Sorry to say, but Day 3 won't be up until Sunday, as I'm away from my bricks for the weekend. Was hoping to get it done yesterday, but I was lacking some night actions and thus couldn't post it. -

REVIEW: Atlantis 8060 Typhoon Turbo Sub
Quarryman replied to WesternOutlaw's topic in LEGO Action and Adventure Themes
Thank you TheBrickster for a nice review Not sure what I think about the set, the minifigs are very nice, and the new canopy piece is great, sure hope that one shows up in a more useful colour, like trans-black. But the set itself seems like something I'll probably skip. Based on the US price it will probably be at least 199 NOK here, or more, which is way too much for this. -
Day 2 has ended without a conviction Final vote count: Florentzia Lizar / JimButcher: 9 votes (Hinckley, Black Rabbit, Sandy, Eskallon, stash2sixx, Shadows, Inertia, Ricecracker, Darth_Legois) Jad Suur / Darkness Falls: 2 votes (JimButcher, Sir Dillon) Engofi Cheipo / Eskallon: 1 vote (simonjedi) Non-voters: 7 (Darkness Falls, Dragonator, I Scream Clone, Mr. Mandalorian, pedro, Svelte, Zepher) 10 votes were needed to convict. It is now Night. Those with night actions have 48 hours to send them to me in a PM, if I haven't received them within those 48 hours they won't be counted.
