Hi all, Yeah, I finally get to make a post about Starship-related stuff. But first a bit about how I'm able to post this. If you don't care, skip this section. My math problem has not been fixed, but it has not worsened. My teacher, noting that half (...) (22 years ago, 14-Oct-04, to lugnet.gaming.starship, FTX)

I just added this to the BrikWars frontpage, but thought I'd crosspost here since it was funny - James Bailey sent me a link to his crazy battle report awhile back that captures the BrikWars spirit better than anything I've seen in quite awhile: (...)

Hi Daan, (...) Well, it's mine :) (URL) used this technique for my Tonquedec castle. (...) I really like those windows. I tried also to use the 8x8 plate, but I didn't like the 2x2 square in the middle. You find a very good way to mask it. I hope (...) (22 years ago, 14-Oct-04, to lugnet.castle)

(...) Now that I think of it, isn't "hermaphrodite" incorrect in this context? I mean, a 1x1 brick is hermaphroditic re: male:female connection points. The part you're describing might be more accurately described as male:male. Dave! (22 years ago, 14-Oct-04, to lugnet.parts, FTX)

These are so very very very cool! I can't wait till I have a MOC I can use these ideas on. I. I like this window alot. I've seen the SNOT fences used that way before, but I've never seen a fence slipped inside an arch like that. It REALLY makes the (...) (22 years ago, 14-Oct-04, to lugnet.space)

(...) No, Lego apparently can't justify the cost of producing the mold for such a part, nor that of a plate with studs on both sides; however, you can have your fill of useful parts like this: (URL) :-) Mark (22 years ago, 14-Oct-04, to lugnet.parts, FTX)

Hi Marc, thanks for the compliments (now there is even a 'bargerboswindow'...) I like your church very much. You've got to use a lot of brown tiles there. But it really gives a 'wooden' touch to it all. Also the cross on the tower is a nice touch. (...) (22 years ago, 14-Oct-04, to lugnet.castle)
