This is a sure thing. tons of people have sighned the roll call, and ive only
seen about ten of them...so i think they are still lurking...

well, i went around .space before writing this, and as far as i can tell, their
hard core maniacs. so, i would say they are having ALOTTT more fun than us.

we need insparation period...(the lord of the rings is where i get mine!)

Not all of us are adults. I am a mere eleven and i have ALOT of life away from
my bricks. i spend more time contemplating and scanning and drawing etc etc etc
of my Brickworlds than i do acually building...
Yes, i believe these are problems. I have been observing the same thinks since
i delurked. there is alot of talk about getting castle a rival, etc. but
NOTHING HAPPENS!!! we talk about it and dont do it. i was attempting to get
somewhere with the Game Project...but the internet is a damn big road block....

I agree. i dont have the blood to create a humorus story, but i like reading
em! (i can only write epics that include alot of plot lines, tons of mysticles,
and a WHOOLE lot of orc killing.)

Great ideas! i agree totally.
as for that wall failer...how about the time my tower on the front gate fell
over and smashed the defending army? that was bad....

I find wacky illogical things to be very funny. try the hitchhikers guide to
the galaxy, by douglas adams....

i will if i find something that strikes my interest, and isnt a widespread
thing on castle.
