LEGO Magazines!
Quisoves Potoo and 2 others reacted to Brickulator for a topic
Alright, I finally dug out all the Adventures mags I could find stashed away in this house. No doubt there are a few I haven't found but here are the ones I have in a nice pile right now: Issue 10 (Jan 00) Issue 12 (Mar 00) Issue 15 (Jun 00) Issue 18 (Sep 00) Issue 21 (Dec 00) Issue 22 (Jan 01) - first one styled as "LEGO Adventures! Magazine" with the new cover title, although the old look is still used inside Issue 26 (May 01) - by now this "new look" is complete, the old dungarees guy is gone and everything is Pepper Issue 28 (Jul 01) Issue 29 (Aug 01) - Bionicle collector's edition with multiple covers, the one I have is Kopaka Issue 30 (Sep 01) Issue 34 (Jan 02 - incorrectly dated as Jan 01 on the cover) - special "last ever issue" edition. The "Constructors" page featured the best MOCs from 2001 rather than showing any new ones Let me know if you'd like any of these scanned and I'll see what I can do. None of them are in the best condition but they are from the turn of the century I'll see if I can find any others and check which of the club magazines I have in case anyone wants to see those too.3 points -
Bad Translations
Shadowblaze and 2 others reacted to Quisoves Potoo for a topic
Bad Translator and I are on good terms once more: Original text: "For some unfathomable reason, Bad Translator now refuses to yield me a terribly interesting (bad) translation. I hope it mends its ways." ...35 translations later, Bing gives us: "This tradition is an abridged version of this UNITED STATES Administration (not good), how can you tell? I hope to travel or not." And here's the path: And Bad Translator takes part of a nursery rhyme and gives us what seems like a strange attempt at poetry: " This is the maiden all forlorn, that milked the cow with the crumpled horn, that tossed the dog that worried the cat, that chased the rat that ate the cheese,that lay in the house that Jack built. " ...6 translations later, SDL gives us: "This is the unique woman all hopeless one, that the cow pressed the horn blow with the full of one, that the dog shot down, that the interested cats become are, that more went the mouse, than a cheese ate, that regulated to the house, that constructed jacket.

Odd map, illegible gravestones
Quisoves Potoo and 2 others reacted to lol username for a topic
I took an overhead screenshot of Adventurer's Island several years back, and PeabodySam made this map-y thing out of it. It's the model used when you fly over the island(s) in the helicopter. The in-game map on the wall does actually match the real model reasonably well (it's the upper left corner), but I don't remember anything interesting where the X is. I'll check in-game later. Edit: Just checked now, the only thing in the area is the airport. Still, I'm impressed that it does actually match up.3 points -

Obscure LEGO Merchandise
Quisoves Potoo and one other reacted to BobaFett2 for a topic
Is this BIONICLE pin obscure? It's squarish and rather large, from 2001, and has this image (the first one) on it. They were given out freely at a local LEGO event at Creative Kidstuff in Saint Paul when I was younger. I can take a picture if that would be helpful.2 points -

temple_arch.msh
Seaborgium reacted to lol username for a topic
Remember the removed temple area in LI2? '?do=embed' frameborder='0' data-embedContent>> Well, I was poking around today and noticed a model called temple_arch.msh... It's the original entrance to the removed temple area. But it doesn't match its counterpart in land.msh - looks like they stretched and squished it around a bit at some point.1 point -

Race tracks
Fluffy Cupcake reacted to Shadowblaze for a topic
Sorry to copy half of your stuff, Xiron, but I think the same as you about tracks. Easiest: Smash 'N' Bash. Sorry to copy you, but this is definitely the easiest track of all. Along with its unoriginal design, all you have to do here is dodging the enemies' weapons. Also, at the first turn, you end up in last position without no reason (actually I know the reason but I don't know how to explain it in few words), giving you almost a 100% chance of getting the Shockwave powerup, thus making the enemies slow down so much that you are first all the time. Hardest: The Berg's Royal Rumble. As a kid, I struggled for some months before I finally beat this freaking boss. The fact that he drops stalagmites at you and is unaffected by powerups makes him the hardest boss ever, if you didn't know about that first shortcut, which I obvously didn't when trying to beat him some years ago. In arcade mode it's definitely Beyond The Dome, because you get slowed down so easily that the opponents can surpass you quite easily. Also, the huge ramp, it's not only cool but if you take it the wrong way you fall down and lose the race. Favourite: I like nearly all races, except for a few, but the one with the most interesting and fun design to me is Red Run. Least favourite: All the ones that I don't like are probably my least favourite. I'd say Smash 'N' Bash, though, for its unoriginality. I mean, instead of putting that lame loop in, they could have made a whole new track! That upsets me a bit.1 point -
Hello rru members!
Quisoves Potoo reacted to flexogel for a topic
Great thanks for all your welcomes! Your French is understandable aidenpons but can you understand if I say for example:"J'aime les patates et les melons." ? Also thanks for the Timhead . (Aurevoir is more correct than Adieu: Adieu is used when you say goodbye to someone you'll never see again, but it doesn't really matter). Oh I didn't understand the "Infomaniac" thing but now I can say that his name is "Prof" in French so "Instructor" in English.1 point -

Despite what everyone tends to say this is a relatively normal site that is no more or less sane than any other community, like that friend who goes around shouting how quirky and random they are while being neither. Welcome.1 point -

My lego stuffs
ties125 reacted to STUDZ for a topic
Please forgive me, but now that the topic has been revived, and I JUST discovered this topic, I MUST say something... Nice spread there, Doc. I can see some Adventurers, a bunch of Alpha Team, some old Harry Potter, an Exo-Force set or two... And I REALLY like that black Ogel base-thing that I didn't even know existed before now. I thought it was a MOC until I got a better look at it. Needless to say, I WANT. And look at all the dust! it's worse than a Chris Doyle webcomic! Still, that is some great semi-old bricks you've got there. OK, Cire, you can punish me now.1 point -
