Congratulations on your 21st star day, Chronicler! :birthday :celebrate :celebrate :celebrate :celebrate :celebrate

I'm sorry to say that I have once again failed to prepare a card for you this year :( (also, my scanner isn't working, so even if I did have a card, I would not be able to upload it). I feel bad about this, and will still try to get you a card if you want it. In any case, I'll at least try to catch up on my reviewing of your fanfic.

Sincerely,

Pangaea

Thanks, guys. :yes

Sadly, I was forced to have a small and quick celebration for my birthday at home, due to needing more time to work a project for one of my classes that I had not yet finished at the time. (When will I ever learn to not procrastinate like this? :bang )

Maybe you can have a larger celebration later on once you have more time.

Thanks, guys. Not much has been happening here lately, we had some pizza on Sunday, and I didn't really get many gifts (blame me for not asking for asking for much; I decided to save the big stuff for Christmas ;) ).

Happy belated second schnappszahl, Chronicler! :birthday :birthday

Sorry for being so late (not that that should be surprising :rolleyes); my Internet connection has been making it difficult for me to even reach the GOF in the past several days.

The good news is, this year I finally have a star day card for you. :wow

One reason I’d never made you a card until now is that I was stumped on how to design one: I had no idea how to recognizably draw anything Bionicle-related (For some time I considered dismantling several of my own Bionicle LEGO sets, arranging the pieces to spell out a birthday greeting, then photographing the whole setup and using that as a reference to draw the card). It was just a few days ago when inspiration hit me: I’d make you a MythBusters-themed card instead. :idea



Serendipitously, I had asked you beforehand about your favorite MythBusters episodes, so I attempted to include as many references to those myths in the card as I could, which you’ll hopefully be able to recognize. Mixed in are some generic MythBusters elements, such as flames, rockets, stylized explosions, clouds of smoke, tire tracks from an out-of-control car (at least, that’s what the ëS’ is supposed to be), some artfully arranged shrapnel, the “myth outcome” signs (“Busted”, “Plausible”, and “Confirmed”), and, of course, Buster, the crash-test dummy (whose arms have been blown off and appear elsewhere on the card :lol). Oh, and the requisite Lystrosaurus head beside my signature is sporting a Jamie Hyneman beret and mustache. :lol

I did manage to include a lone Bionicle artifact: Takua’s mask (The card just didn’t say “The Chronicler” without it ;)).

Hope you like the card, and sorry again for the wait. (Assuming my Web connection cooperates, I'll post my next review of your fanfiction soon, too.)

Wow, thanks, Pangaea! :wow

I can definitely identify most of the references you put in that card :lol , and it was nice that you also threw in one object to acknowledge me being a Bionicle fan. :yes  If you really have been struggling to come up with anything Bionicle-related, then I guess just ordinary Lego would be fine by me, next time. :)

(Oh, and thanks for reminding me about my fanfic. I've busy with other interests (again) and haven't really gotten around to writing the next chapter.)
