Like, wow. So we don't know if he was a good guy or a bad guy? That's so not fabulous.

As the three of you did not bother to read the thread, let me point out that you've made a grave miscalculation in the way to get a title. This topic is for discussing how people got their titles. Randomly telling us you don't have a title will lead to trouble for you.

That was day 2.

Hello, I'm Herman. I'm a nerd.

Years later, the prizes were mailed out to the winners... 1st Prize Donated for BrickForge: Donated from BrickArms: 2nd Prize Donated for BrickForge: Donated from BrickArms: 3rd Prize Donated for BrickForge: Donated from BrickArms: They were mailed on May 8th, so congratulations and enjoy your prizes!

:laugh: The little video actually made me jump!

That is definitely what it is. I have confirmation on that.

Let's be perfectly clear: You're talking about it. We're not trying to stop you from doing that and we wouldn't. We removed the pictures, we did not lock the topic. And yes, we could leave the pictures up and we choose not to, and yes this is a private site. And yes, as a private site, we can post whatever pictures we like, but as a staff we make decisions the best way we see fit. And as a private site, we don't have to guarantee anyone continued membership on this site, especially those who resort to childish name-calling. We have no problem with debate or people expressing their opinion, but I personally don't appreciate people coming out with namecalling as opposed to voicing an opinion with mutual respect. This is not directed at you CP5760, but at others-like the Brick Green Giant-who decide to take things too far. By the way, Alywin, you have been awesome through all of this. Thank you very much for your patience and understanding and your willingness to work along with us and our guidelines. I agree with all the views you've posted (to our staff via PM and in this thread) and you seem to me like a trustworthy, amicable, stand-up guy. Thanks.

You're a dude is some game, aren't you? Love it!

Day over? But I wanted to show off my new hairdo that me and Ivan Ivy made up. Aren't I beautiful?

I really appreciate that being said. It's difficult to see news and not be able to post it. But there's fun in the surprise, too! I used to love getting the new catalog and reading it all at once a month or so before the new lines came out. When I was a kid, they only released new sets once a year. So, it was like Christmas to get a new catalog. It seems, with the internet, we get pics so early, it kind of takes the fun out of new sets being released. Anyway, thanks and I can guarantee you won't be waiting very long at all to see the new set.

Don't worry. Somebody grabbed it in time and reposted it to his Brickshelf account...

Let me re-iterate: Please don't post pics of these sets until after the surprise reveal that's coming up somewhere some time soon. Thank you.

Let this serve as an example to nobody. Posting in this topic (almost) never leads to a title. You are more likely to be chambered than get a title when fishing for one here. Not that you were fishing for one, 5150. You've been here for such a long time and have been a great contributor (and patient reconciler ) I couldn't believe you didn't have a title. And I also couldn't resist after your "real men" comment!

That isn't our logo, and I think it's too pixelated. I'd rather create something that looks professional, so I'll post something here in a couple of days. Thanks for your patience.

Who is surprised? You Are 68% Evil You are very evil. And you're too evil to care. Those who love you probably also fear you. A lot.

You were finally a dude in a game and you got killed on the first day! How could it be any clearer??

Well, duh. makes what?

Yikes! Really, it's not horrible. Although I've overdone the crashy smashy thing while trying to re-arrange/sort. It often goes something like this: Should I take that Harry Potter Castle down? I know I'll farm it form parts the next time I make a modular city building. Should I just avoid the inevitable and take it down now? Ah, I should just continue with the re-arrangement and take it apart later. Who has the time to sort it now. Now where did I put the bley plate tub? That's weird. I thought it was right here. Why did I hide it on myself? How do I always misplace things? What did I just step on? Oh, the Harry Potter Castle. Great, now I have to sort it. Where's that bley plate tub? Here is my suggestion for your town. Let me start by saying it looks great and I really appreciate the dedication to the Classic Town feel. That being said, for that bridge to work the town needs to be on two levels. If it was just a raised rail the bridge pieces from the transport truck wouldn't appear there. They would appear when a regular track goes over a road or a river or something in a lower level gully. So, either a. invest in some green PaB and build your entire layout up a level to provide a gorge for the train to go over, or b. build a table with a trench or build some boxes to raise things up one level to position for a gorge. Think I'm crazy? Well let the seed plant itself in your brain and see how far it takes you. Secondly, as previously mentioned, the pillars for the elevated train are on the road. That would make it difficult for people to drive on. And as my favorite example of why the classic 4-wide vehicles are unfair to minifigs-imagine poor Bill driving Mary to the hospital when she's ready to deliver her baby. Not only does she have to ride on the roof, now Bill has to dodge these columns. So, two things for the elevated train to work. a. Plan it out first. Draw a map for the way you want the Town to layout before you start putting it together. b. Check out some pics of real elevated trains to get an idea of how they work in with a City landscape. So, lastly I will warn you that you're opening up a door to spend some money on this. Once you start getting this ambitious, if you let your ideas form into reality, it starts to cost. There are ways to keep it down, for sure-but I envision you browsing Bricklink this weekend. Can't wait to see the project progress and future tragedies, comedies and accomplishments.

Oooh. Good question.

I had to force him to post the few posts he did make. He's just not into it...

That's 6-39 They're Math smarties.

My turn! My turn! Question: Which new member needs to check out these tutorials and learn how to resize pictures so that his posts don't slow down load times for members with slower connections? Guess! Go ahead guess!

tee hee Thanks!
