The following is a link to a story that appears on our website. The one omission to the story was the fact that we consistantly had about 80% more folks around our layout than any other at the show. I think this has become common for most LEGO (...) (21 years ago, 22-Dec-05, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.general, lugnet.org.us.nelug)

(...) Oh thanks Abner, I didn't look under "octagonal" because I thought it was a smooth cone, that will work, and it looks like there are plenty on BL. Thanks. Janey "Red Brick" (21 years ago, 18-Dec-05, to lugnet.org.us.wamalug, FTX)

(...) Hi, I believe, the green 2 by 2 cone element in the picture is from the Aquazone theme "Aquaraiders" sets #2160, #2161, and 2162. (URL) I hope this helps. -Abner (21 years ago, 17-Dec-05, to lugnet.org.us.wamalug, FTX)

While recently surfing B.S. I came across pictures from your last Wamalug meeting in "pjmoyer"'s folder... and I was looking at the greeting cards, which are totally excellent, btw. I assumed those were real bricks in the photos and not cads, until (...) (21 years ago, 17-Dec-05, to lugnet.org.us.wamalug, FTX)

(...) there is some new kind of harry potter "ball" that has a magnet in it. some version of Jeff Elliots train car detector could probably pick it out for this. Anyone played with harrys ball? Chris (21 years ago, 15-Dec-05, to lugnet.org.us.laflrc, lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

(...) Oh, that would be a cool module, in addition to a ball counter. How would you display the time? Is there a way to do it besides using the RCX display? You could use the Red ball that always got stuck in your ball sorter at BrickFest... Steve (21 years ago, 15-Dec-05, to lugnet.org.us.laflrc, lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

(...) That was my intention. Since the Horta eggs are slightly bigger, droping the balls onto twoproperly spaced parallel rails should work: soccer balls fall between the rails, while the horta eggs roll down the rails and back into the module.

(...) Actually, it would be kind of cool to have a module that just circulates the eggs & balls, but only passes the balls forward. No one else has to deal with them, as long as you don't let them out. Sort of like this module (from Brian Davis): (...) (21 years ago, 15-Dec-05, to lugnet.org.us.laflrc, lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

(...) Janey, thanks for playing with these new balls and telling us all about them. Brian, if you wanted to make a module that passes soccer, but retains horta eggs, then you would need to make EVERY module be able to deal with both sized balls. (...)

(...) ... (...) Janey, I know what you mean about soccer balls moving around. At the last train show, a few people were talking about the "soccer ball factory". We may go that direction next time. I'm sure painting them won't work. I think LEGO did (...) (21 years ago, 15-Dec-05, to lugnet.org.us.laflrc, lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

After seeing the great ball moving into more and more train layouts... the "soccer" balls, seem a bit .... uh "strange" for lack of a better word. After a bit of group discussion, I was looking for a Lego substitute... Technic Ball Joints? Black or (...) (21 years ago, 15-Dec-05, to lugnet.org.us.laflrc, lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto, FTX)

To be fair, Matt has far more processing power than the RCX, extremely well-tested firmware, and a multi-year head start. (...) No, put it's one of the things I like (...)
