Very true. Your squabbling with Zita will not in any way aid us, and we need all the help we can get! Please, for our children's, and our children's children's sakes, unvote Zita and vote Michelle. While I know that you might not be 100% sure - heck, even I'm not - concerning her guilt, we need to keep things moving here, or else the scum will just have that much of a bigger edge over us. Again, I am not sure about Michelle's guilt, but it seems she will be taken care of either way, and the quicker this mess gets sorted out, the better.

Oh Henry, you seem like you're on the right track. I'd be foolish not to follow your directions. As well, Michelle seems to have given up - even if she were loyal, we won't stand a chance with someone who just sits there once verbally attacked. Unfortunately, Michelle, I'm going to have to vote for you. Vote: Michelle. Previously, from what I've heard of the happenings the other day, you mentioned that you knew who this Hatchetman was, so I don't see why you don't just contact him.

Wow Sir Dillion, this is fantastic! I really love the way you use the inverted slopes under the staircase, along with the windows and crossed swords. The landscaping, though simple, is perfect, and the flag is a great touch. I honestly have nothing to criticize. I also didn't realize you were -Pendragon- until now .

R/C Volvo VHD Tractor Trailer w/ Shipping Container
Ricecracker replied to Ricecracker's topic in LEGO Town
Thanks, guys! A man can dream, right? I definitely agree with you, and I think it is due in part to the length of the wheelbase as well as the width. I also tried remedying this many times, by making the whole truck one-two plates taller, by only raising the cab, by raising the cab and engine, et cetera, et cetera. I think you get the point . Neither can I . I'm just not sure it'll work out. Because of the height of the fifth wheel on the back of the truck, I'd have to put 3 layers of brick on top of the wheels-which looks terrible..... you can get a bit of a feel for this by looking at the current trailer. And Dave, you and Stacy should switch to my standard for shipping containers, though you might need to expand the train cars a little bit . -

Hi everyone. This is a remote controlled Volvo VHD Tractor, pulling a tank shipping container. The purpose of this build was to define (To me) how a shipping container should be built, so that it was both realistic and functional, while setting a standard that at least I can adhere to while building. It is 8 studs wide and 13 studs long. Note that this is a half sized container, and the normal ones you see would be 26 studs long. Once I built the shipping container, I knew I had to build a Tractor to tow it, and when I saw the tractor from 7686, I thought it looked similar to a Volvo. I decided to make my own. Then, I purchased 8183, so I made it remote controlled. It's a bit wide-even for me, but I had to make it that wide to use the R/C base. No for some pictures! See more, including a video, on my flickr.

Noir Mafia Confirmation/General Discussion Thread
Ricecracker replied to MagPiesRUs's topic in LEGO Mafia and Role-Play Games
I'm just letting everyone know that I'll be away for two weeks without internet access starting tonight. -
Oh God, Dr. Agon! What a fine young man, always caring and willing to help anyone. We must avenge his death. The only bright side I see from last night is that a scum was killed. Did anyone happen to see anything last night? Anything at all might help.
-
That's a great idea ! It would be useful to newer members, and to members who don't usually venture in to other forums as a way of letting them know who they can ask questions to, when the staff and fellows aren't online. So get another staff member that can only hand out these tags .

huck to flat's Trade Topic
Ricecracker replied to huck to flat's topic in Buy, Sell, Trade and Finds
I might have some others tucked away that I'd be willing to sell to you. I'll let you know by tomorrow. Also, when you say you are keen about them, does that mean you'll be willing to buy them? -
Very true! I only get afraid if I watch Mayday prior to flying . Why, oh why is it always on when I'm about to go on a plane ? Also -Small, multiple legged bugs. -Dangerous looking people, especially when I am alone.

huck to flat's Trade Topic
Ricecracker replied to huck to flat's topic in Buy, Sell, Trade and Finds
Are you willing to buy these? If so, check out my Bricklink store, as I have a few of those. The link is in my sig. -
Hehe... When I was eight, I was at summer camp walking from the rock climbing area to cabin, which was across the road. There was a chain fence about a foot off the ground at the edge of the road. I ran to jump over it as I normally did, clipped my foot, fell and fracture-dislocated my left elbow. The next year, again while I was at camp, I was rollerblading around in the Rec hall. For some reason, I tried jumping, but when I landed, the shoelace had come undone and had gotten caught in the wheels. Needless to say, I tripped. And you guessed it-I fracture-dislocated my left elbow. Again. It hurt. I then had surgery performed on my elbow, and two metals pins were inserted to hold it together. About six months later, I noticed a bulge in my elbow, and always felt like something was poking at it inside. It turns out one of the pins had broken in two, and half of it was working it's way out of my elbow. I had another operation done on it, and they took that half of the pin, along with the other pin out. The other half is still lodged in my elbow. I also have a nasty scar about four inches long, and the bone still sticks out a little. When I was 7 (?), I was at my aunt and uncle's house. They have a steep, slippery staircase. I fell, and got a half-inch gash in between my eyes; right above my nose. That scared. Last year, while at summer camp (Again ), I was "playing" volleyball with my friend in our cabin, when I went to hit the ball up. I didn't see the door beside me, and sliced open the back of my hand. There is yet another scar there.

Do you think LEGO should make SWAT sets?
Ricecracker replied to patriot's topic in Special LEGO Themes
Are you sure about that, Spyder ? -
Large quantities of these bits needed
Ricecracker replied to VBBN's topic in Buy, Sell, Trade and Finds
Hey, VBBN. I have 24 of the first piece and 23 of the second piece, if you'd like, but what are some items you have up for offer? -
Sorry about that little outburst earlier, Sal, I'm just having my period .
-
According to Brickset, I have 275 sets, which equates to 57542 parts and 620 Minifigures. But some sets I own aren't on Brickset, and from all the Bricklink purchases and garage sale lots I've acquired, I'd say I'm closer to 65,000 pieces, and 700 Minifigs.

Well you obviously aren't selling, and I don't think Mr. Baker over here would appreciate you stealing .......
-
As Dr. Agon says, we will be wasting the precious time we have, so therefore, I am going to Vote: Vincent Forman/YG-49
-
Have fun with the forest fire !
-
I'm getting suspicious about you... You are always trying oust Mr. Forman, all the while you have zero evidence that you are willing to share. Then you claim to somehow know as a fact that the killer was wearing a fedora, yet you won't explain how you know. It could very well have been you, covering it up by saying that the person who committed this crime was wearing a fedora. For all I know, you could very well be threatening Sal as well, so that he doesn't reveal anything. NO! Listen to this people. I think *blank* is the killer, because possible for him to have done it. Hey Zita, I think you are the killer, because you got here so fast .

Noir Mafia Confirmation/General Discussion Thread
Ricecracker replied to MagPiesRUs's topic in LEGO Mafia and Role-Play Games
Yes, Ma'am. -
Now you're all making me even more jealous that I might not be able to attend. I know you'll all have a great time, even in my absence .
-
Hmmm.... What has happened to all of us? Are we just going to vote off people at will, with no evidence? My God, I cannot believe this. I too may have my suspicions of Mr. Forman, but I believe we mustn't start voting until after even a shred of incriminating evidence is found. And as far as I can tell, that scrap hasn't been found.

Oh God! Oh God! How could someone do such a thing. At least I have a strong husband to cuddle with during these times..... Henry! Get over here. Now. Oh, I'm sorry, my name is Rose, and this is my husband Henry. A quiet little family we are, but we couldn't help but come to see what the commotion was after we heard gunshots. Damnit Henry, where are you!?
