My LEGO Nexus Organization

Should this go in news?  I think it should.  Yeah.  But anyway, there's new MLN stuff!  On the home page there is now an "Arcade" button along with gallery, sticker, etc... 

http://mln.lego.com/en-us/network/concert.aspx

Wow! This is very cool! it should be on the front page!!!

thats awesome i need to put mine back on

Maybe it will be later.

It is now, and...

I'm... On... The top... Ten!? =O

/EDIT: Hmm, looks like there'll be more arcade games according to the other category links in the Arcade section.

Cooooongradulations!!!!!!!!!! ;D

It seems to be changing a lot, CRX was on it five seconds ago, then was off, and he's on now. 

he's off again...

I was on it for a second! =D

I haven't seen him on yet, and MLN-Arcade's one of the top ones...

I played on his a ton.

Me too...

So now I'm number 8 on the top ten! This. Is. Awesome.

I assume you haven't gotten IT yet... So... As per this awesome news... +1 Rep.

Polaroctapus: Yeah, something tells me that's not gonna happen with Panduperbikini3 at the top... Also, please don't post after you have just posted like you just did ;)

/EDIT: Gah, even with this they STILL haven't changed the Featured members >_<

Determination, ftw.  ^_^ 

I don't think it's going by clicks, though. Because CRX has the most and he's not on it right now...

EDIT@ Thanks Blade!  =D

Hmm... Well that's weird.

Anyone mind playing my Concert 1 a few times? I'm sorry, I'd change my module to have a FEW more arrows, but I don't know it if would knock me off like changing a sticker module would...

Looks like everything's correct now... And I'm back down to number 9 >_>

Lol how about that.

Probably put me on when I harvested, it seems as if harvesting registers your rank.

*harvests*

I changed the music on mine...

Sweet.

Not on mine. lol, 75% people missed on it.

Lol.

*Looks on Top ten* Ack! People, DON'T harvest, you'll knock me off D=

/EDIT: Heh, you two are bumping each other off xD

Now for your next trick, bump PB3 off so he can't do his duping tricks =D

Also requisite, it appears, is having more clicks than someone on there. :P

Wait a minute... there's more than just the concert arcade game! there's also  the Haul arcade game (from grok, apparently), the destructoid arcade game (from playing it on a friend's page), delivery arcade game (from max, I think (does this have anything to do with the new badge?)), and the hop arcade game (from echo, as soon as he finds his body).

Yeah, I pointed those out, but they're all coming soon ;)

Tell me if anyone passes my new Concert 2 module. I barely passed, and only because I lowered my quality to low, which slightly sped up the falling arrows.

I didn't win, but only because the internet is really jerky with these.
When you change the soundtrack, you have to validate your game again. Because of that, I've only got 5 tries of my game now.

*Is annoyed* Look at the top ten. Someone called mrandrew1 Has bumped me off the Top Ten. I haven't even heard of him before now >_>

*looks up from playing Hero Rising* ooo I'll go try it out

Congrats.

I'm back on the top ten, but that guy's now number 8, and I doubt that's the last place he's staying... I'll probably be knocked off again as soon as CRX appears on the Top ten again... =/

Thanks MJ =)

CRX isn't on the top 10?

I normally use my dad's mac book to play the arcade game, as his computer is only a year or so old, whereas this imac I'm using is 5. It's nearly impossible to beat my game with low FPS.

@ blade Got a score of 121. And won another BP. :P

Jas: He fluctuates like on all the other Top tens.

JJ: Congrats =D

Everyone: I'm just barely hanging on. If Anlion(Or however you spell it) gets back on the Top Ten, I'll be knocked off.

well lets hope he doesn't get back on then :)

Heh, I kicked that andrew guy off =P I'm back up to Number 9. Though right now I'm kinda wishing I hadn't played MLN-Arcade's page so much =P

Same here!

if you get kicked off i will go and play on your page till you get back on(and mine is up if any of you have any clicks left please clicks on mine and Kurosaki Ichigo )

=P I like that last little bit, venom =P

:)oh really..hmmm.. :D

Thanks guys =) To easily get people to my page, I'm gonna change my name to NeoBlademanSeedCross =D

And I'm gonna be clicking CRX's page shortly, and someone else's after that, but if I have any spare clicks, I'll give them to you =)

CRX has over 5,500 and he is the top person..i think

Meh, another top ten list that I will never be on.
I don't care, really.

... he got bumped off...

oh no(goes to click)

he's on again, and Blade is #8!

Who got bumped off? I'm still on there according to the Top Ten I'm seeing...

HQuiff was #10, then got bumped off, but is now #6

I see that, now he's fourth, and I'm back at my number 9 rut >_<

I'm still moving up and down the Top Ten ranks... Barely hanging onto the grip of it.

Man I should make a macro harvest for me every so often so I wouldn't keep falling off the top 10s... >_<

Could you do that though without it hitting the wrong thing?

Ugh I hate that I wont stay on there. I should be

You should be? And what should I be, off the Top ten then? This is the first Top Ten I've ever been on on MLN...

I could of been on it, if I didn't change the music of mine.

Which is why I didn't update my Rank 1 module, it'll erase the rest of my stuff =P

And then got bumped back off. That andrew guy keeps popping back up onto the Top ten though...

Anlien's back in front of me, and I'm stuck in that Number Nine rank I seem to be in a lot xD

I don't really think harvesting has much to do with it... I haven't harvested mine all day..

Well, when you harvest, if you've been glitched, you seem to bump up to where you should be if you're off the top ten...

Either way, I'm back to 9... again... xP

Yeah.

I have no idea, I don't even have macro software so it's never going to happen. :P

xD Yeah, you'd probably need the software first =P

I got bumped off at one point, but I'm back, but at number 10. Someone on my friendlist of all people bumped me off to boot >_>

=O I am? *Scratches head* Doesn't say I am... =/ Wish I was though.

I'm second in concert!!! I hope the other games are fun.

uraw, if you can get past PB3, you can help defeat dupers. =P

I hope I do that! =D Everyone visits my page too!

You, uh, couldn't, uh, donate some plays to me too, could you? =P

Maybe later... I forgot my CII has 1450!

@Blade: You should be off, theres a few people who have more than you, but arent on it

Like DT and Pando? They're up most of the time, but don't deserve to be. And why should everyone who gets on Top tens all the time be the ONLY one to get on a Top Ten?

Oh, and I'm/ I was Ten on the Top Ten of the stickers.

O_O uraw passed Pando!! ... And I'm stuck in number 10... AGAIN...

There might be a formula other than straight clicks going on...

I'm back off the sticker Top Ten. Guess why. DT.

And I'm barely hanging on the Concert Top Ten.

Didn't you read my last post? My CII had more clicks than pb3 once I put it back up.

I didn't know that's what you had meant.

DT is trying to push me off the Top Ten I think...

You're still on the top 10 of stickers  ;D And I am first on top concert arcade!!!

EDIT: Is it just me, or does MLN-Arcade have 300 friends?!

hmmm(goes to look)

There was some suspicion he was a networker, maybe they killed his FL limit.

Or, they haven't gotten around to making his friends not show up, like the rest of the networkers.

Or they don't realize they didn't...

I know, I saw after.

If MLN-Arcade is a Networker, he doesn't deserve to be up on the top ten >=/

You got that right!

Or if he is a LEGO BOT... or a dupe account created just to host the games.

a dump account sould more like it he might have many accounts playing the game to get him to the top 10

No, I'm pretty sure it's either a Lego Bot, a Lego Official's dupe account, or a networker.

THat's what I meant... I don't think it si a networker, tho... or they would have done more with is page...

very true.

Unless they're waiting to release the other games to update his page ;)

Nah...they did Cheat code & Extra life thoroughly and clearly as networkers...

I think Pedroen made it so people could play the game.

Well then, if it was just for that reason, he should have turned the Top Ten ability off =/

CAN he???

He could set that permission to be like a Networker's. If it's an account that's just for holding the new arcade modules, why should it be on the Top Ten?

It SHOULDN"T... and the fact that it has so many friends means something is "off" about the account.

yeah maybe mln just does not care

Ok, we can all agree it's off. But it's 99.9% confirmed it's one of MLN's own staff accounts, so I doubt they mind. Anyway, it  looks like the cap on Arcade Tokens was taken off... Maybe for the Destructoid Arcade Module? Since it seems that's the next one to be released.

...Cap on Arcade tokens?

Thanks. I'm still off the list right now, but hopefully that's only temporary...(Anyone else not able to connect to the server...?)

flipz: Apparently you could only get 100 Arcade Tokens before.

We are not able to connect to the server also...I can log on and see that I am not in the top ten any more  :( but I cannot give anyone clicks.

BTW I did not know there was a limit on arcade tokens...I had way over that 100 number the second day.

I can't connect to MLN, and my computer got a major virus from MLN Team or gamespot... not sure which one yet.

oh on:(maybe a member of mln team did that or just someone who is mean on gs

i won both modules. you got some nice rhythm for both of the songs, and the steps are very well challenging. I decided you deserved a few clicks on the hawk. :)

I am virus free and I am on Team as often as I am here... so I am guessing gamespot...  how did you know about the virus??

I's not working for me, either. *Jaws music starts playing*

MLN isn't working for 2Mak07 or me either.

It's working for me...

lucky you. what browser?

Safari.

she had a lot of pop up come up like over 20 and weird things started happening...they called a guy to come fix it and it was a windows file that was the problem so they sent it off and they will get it about 7

I can't either... I'm just wondering how many clicks on my factory module I have... I'm ninth on the top 10 for the factory modules... ;D ;D ;D

We don't host viruses on MLN Team, nor do we support hacking.  Of course if you have information that would assist us investigation - we would appreciate it.

Ah, but what if it wasn't the SITE, but the URL?

she called me and she said it was a windows file that got corrupted

If so, Lindavz, you and I would also have had issues...

Hmm...

You guys run Virus checks lately..?

Every night!

Hmm. The only reason I ask is because when I got up and went on MLNT, the URL had stopped working and instead had a different name... =/

I still use the forumotion URL... I don't know about the new one...

Yes, we recently purchased a new domain name, mlnteam.net


Yes there was a recent windows exploit.  Windows sent out a security patch in the past few days.

Lemme guess though, IE only? That's why I use Firefox =P

That's why I use a mac.

When I go to MLNT via www.mlnteam.net, it goes to http://.yoo7.com/ (DON'T CLICK - MAY BE CAUSE OF VIRUS). Any idea why?

That's odd...when I go to mlnteam.net, it just says page cannot be displayed...

Nope, sorry, I don't. It may be because of the internet explorer got hacked Or it could be just a error. Like, when I accidently went to ww.mln.smfforfree4.com, instead of www.mln.smfforfree4.com, because I left a w out, it took me a a BAD site.

This is a bit off-topic, but what's with the wierd dots at the end of the post?

It's really tiny text. To read what it says, highlight the "dots" - then copy and paste it into Notepad (or whatever the equivalent is on your computer). As for why people use it... it's like whispering (kinda, sorta).  :P

Sorry I didn't see your message earlier.  This is due to something called domain name prorogation.  Someone put the wrong IP address when updating the DNS (domain name servers).  Generally speaking it can be a few days while this is being sorted.  

Anyhow I put a support request in via forummotion at:
http://help.forumotion.com/connection-problems-f42/new-domain-not-working-t33055.htm

And I have contacted the domain name registrar godaddy.com, and domainsbyproxy.

As for the yoo7.com, it's simply a mistake by forumotion.  It does to a 401, which is page not found.

I'll keep you posted on this.

Hey, not to be off topic again but, can everyone connect to MLN? When I go to any userpage, it says,"Can't connect to servers. There is a problem. Please try again later."
Are they updating MLN for the other new game modules?

I don't know, but I cant connect, ither. I could for an hour yesterday, but not anymore...

It was working fine for a second on my userpage, then when I refreshed it to see if someone clicked my trade module, it said that It "Can't connect to servers. There is a problem. Please try again later."
I tried to refresh the page again but nothing.

It means the servers are down for you, go do something else and try later ;)

Well, actually, they are working again. :P

Anyone know when the next arcade modules will come out?

No clue. SOON. Soon Or Otherwise Never. =P

XD if that happens, but it won't, will it? XD

Who knows, knowing lego it could take awhile ::)

HI Beeky31,

Please be patient.

Thanks

Dana80862

Interesting, well at least it's being worked on...

AUGH!!! MLN doesn't work on my comp anymore, only on my mom's! :'(

Maybe it just started working when you happened to try out your moms computer...

I just checked... right now, the "red box" has appeared. :-\

EDIT: Wha- now I can go on MLN for some reason. :D

It's a glitch, it randomly goes off and on... It'll eventually come back for all of you ;)

I don't know about that because I had like 200 tokens by the second day of those modules' existance...

Wow! That's a lot Arcade Tokens. :P

I have like 450 tokens... ::)

I have found more new stuff in the XML.

LOL, so true.


 :o Please tell...

Yeah, what he said! Is it about the destructoid game?

Wait, nevermind. :-[ I was just that it's format is exactly like the other concert arcade modules. And what does the mean?

My guess: it's for destructoid.  1 click in a square makes a block that can be destroyed in 1 hit, 2 clicks makes a block that can be destroyed in 2 hits, and 3 clicks makes a block that can be destroyed in 3 hits.  Can you tell from the XML who it can be bought from and what it will cost to buy/build?

Yeah, Destructoid. Blade knows how to find that other stuff I think...

If you don't want the wii, I'll take it!
I might check out the XML as well.

Well, I got my comp back 2 days ago, but couldn't get on due to the fact that they had to wipe it completely clean of everything... and its still messed up a little. So I won't be on that often on here or MLN.  :'(

Was it the windows exploit Lindazv was talking about?

Um, I'm not sure. It probably was?

@MLNTeam domainname change tp mlnteam.net we put in a support request, and I just checked and the domain is transferred correctly - as least it was last night.

@ Computer Safety:

List of Windows Security Archives:
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/bulletin/ms08-078.mspx

List of Symantec Threat Advisories:
http://www.symantec.com/norton/security_response/threatexplorer/index.jsp

Well there are unfortunately a ton of exploits that people on the net and I don't know enough about Jedi's problem to say which one it was.  Above are links to technical info for those that are computer savvy about recent computer security breaches.  Basically people use 'holes' or 'bugs' to use the computer in a way it was not intended to be.  And so the best is to be proactive.

For example, I use a firewall (both hardware and software), Anti-Virus, Anti-Spyware, Anti-Spam, Web Protection.  Additionally I use Firefox (firefox.com) with the following ad-ons, noscript (noscript.net), popup blocker (RemoveAdblock.com/en/), finjan (securebrowsing.finjan.com) and a SANS monitoring tool (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/1661).

O_O''' Whoa, I take security high, and even I don't have all that xD What are those last two add-ons?

Yep - lol - I try to be safe...and as you requested:

1. Lynndr tipped me off to the Finjan program.  Here is a little bit about it from: securebrowsing.finjan.com
Finjan SecureBrowsing provides you with safety ratings of URLs showing in your browser.
# Scans the current form of a page as it available on the Web now, in real-time.
# Detects malicious content based on code analysis, rather than using signatures like anti-virus products.
# Provides the most accurate page safety rating based on the actual page content, rather than database lookup of web address like URL filtering products.

2. SAN Monitoring Tool
Displays the current SANS ISC INFOCon level on the statusbar. The ISC is the Internet Security Center. So if there is an outbreak on the web, the status changes.

I use the firefox version - however there is a version that sits in the system tray also.

It's sadly getting off-topic again. ::)....

LOL, let's not make this the MB's. ::)

MORE NEWS for 2009
There will be:
Haul from Grok's page,
Destructoid from Extralife AND Cheatcode's page,
Delivery from Max's page,
Hop from Echo's page,
Concert modules III-VI from Simon and Jamie's page,
"Catch Bob Skull!" from Captain Reynold's page,
"Nope!" from an upcoming networker who is Max's brother named Ron.
Ron's page will be up in January 2009.  

Wow! Where did you find all of this info?

That's what i'd like to know.... Never mind. I checked the LMB, and found the info around the top half from the middle.
http://messageboards.lego.com/en-US/showpost.aspx?PostID=1961694&PageIndex=16
I wonder how that person knew that though....

....And i can't wait for Concert Module III and IV (oh how i'm gonna make it torturing) ;D

Um, if you got that from the LMBs, where's their source? That's what I asked about too.

Especially since that user hasn't even been around for a month yet :-\

Yeah. Does XML say anything about this?

I haven't seen anything on it...

Actually it was on MLN Team...Lindavz had posted it. I thought you guys would like to see it.

it was also on the message boards... :-\

@RR and @Chase25 - I was responding to Blade's request for more information. 


And yes, I did post it on MLN Team.

But the thing is, is there any proof? Where did you originally get it Linda?

Maybe the user checked XML somewhere...
Off-Topic: What is XML?

That info isn't in the XML, but I still believe it. BTW, the MLN XML is this.
Press Ctrl and F (or the apple key and F if using a Mac) a search box will appear so you can find words in the XML.

O my gosh, reading through that is the most boring thing I've done in a loooooooooooooooooooooooooong time.

Well, there's this:
destructoidBuildLevel">Click to set your blocks where you want them. 1 is weak, 3 is strong.</text>
  <text type="text" id="destructoidHelp">In order to post a game on your page you’ll need to be able to beat it. When you finish editing go to the test tab to try it.</text>
  <text type="text" id="destructoidPickSkin">SKIN<br>Background, character and bricks for your game.</

What this tells me:

• You can make blocks harder to destroy by clicking them more, max of three clicks (like you said)
• That you, like the arcade modules, have to test your game
• That you can choose the skin color, background, charactor, and bricks for your game

Here's what I'm guessing:

• That there is either a time limit, or you are graded on how fast you compleate the game

I searched up creator and got this:

Very impressive LEGO building young squire. I can see from your LEGO building you are indeed a wonderful creator. You mind runs wildly with imagination. Take this and may it remind you of your true calling, you are a builder of wonderful things and conjurer of the highest order!

Do you think he is giving you the brickmaster's badge in this mail?
I don't know, I'm only rank 5. :P

Guys, "Max's brother"? I'd hold it with a grain of salt right now, because, 1. Why would there be 2 more concert modules, 2. Max is already the exclusive Networker for the Lego magazine...

But, there could be validity, but until it's out...

And from what that sounds like, it sounds like one of the guys from Rank 8, but I don't know yet...

Two things:
1. It could be a typo, but MRR said III-VI. That's 3-6
2. Max's brother, Ron, could be for brickmaster...

Here's some stuff I found in XML. There may be other posts with this already, or It may ot be special, but I've never seen it, so here it is:


Welcome back, co-driver!
 Thanks for playing LEGO Racers Challenge! I love this game, man. And you know, the more you play this game, the better it gets, because then we can see where you bump into things that we can make better. Cool, huh? Anyway, I wanted to make sure you and everyone else knows what a great job you did for us by testing this game. So here’s the blueprint for the official “LEGO Racers Challenge Beta Tester Badge for outstanding assistance to the Racers Teamâ€�. Pretty neat title for a badge, right? You can’t get it anywhere else. So keep playing, okay?


Looking for a hand out, eh?
Heh! Just joshing with you, kiddo. Yeah of course you can have a sticker. Hope you like it.


Test drivers wanted!!!
Hey man, I want to ask you a favor – you got a minute? Listen, dude, this is real hush-hush but I know you’re a loyal Racer so I trust you, and I could really use your help. Okay, so you’ve probably heard the rumors about the new big Racers game, right? Well, how would you like to help me test the game? I’d totally appreciate it! You can sign up by clicking a http://racers.lego.com/en-US/default.aspx here


We Can Help You
Let's play a little game. What if I'm not real? The "N" by my name indicates I'm not. Furthermore you know I'm not real because I write the same things over again. But... then so do you, correct? How many times have you sent "Gimme a Sticker" while using this Web site? If you were to log into MLN one day and find that you had an "N" next to your Avatar, would you yourself be any less human?


You kids like this stuff right?
Skateboards, Pizza, Video Games. Yeah! I'm hip you kids... Right? Right?
 I think that artistic expression is nothing less than exposing your very essence into your work. Some times people where masks to help them get at that essence... sometimes people are just pretending to be somebody else for their own gain. Be on the look out for those folks.

That's from one of the Secret Networkers in Rank 6. ;) And that last one is a Rank 6er too, I've seen that before in the mail system... And yes, the rest have already been mentioned.

No proof.  Someone asked a question 'Who is Max's brother', and I did a google search and this was the result on 'Max's brother' lego

http://messageboards.lego.com/en-US/showpost.aspx?PageIndex=16&PostID=1971517

It may be completely a hoax - dunno. 

thats the post I was talking about earlier...

Yeah, and the same post I was talking about. Does that guy have any proof in that news? I mean it's possible, but 4 or 6 concert modules alone? A little overkill IMO...

I doubt that there will be any more...

Well, we'll never know until the future, but i still would have like atleast one more that would make the module look very challenging.

...and where could i get more info about the Lego Racers Challenge thing? ::)

There isn't any more info. We'll just have to wait now... =/

That's what I meant, there's no more info than that ;)

Are you sure?

@Blade
Sorry about that link. ;)

Yes, he just did. Until I discuss this further with Rahkshi and NWJ and CRX, don't post that.

It's ok, I only just realized the potential danger it had, though I've been wary since it was discussed how it could have potential danger.

Did anyone see these stickers?
http://mln.lego.com/en-us/Help/StickerGuide_Name.aspx?PageNo=4 (http://mln.lego.com/en-us/Help/StickerGuide_Name.aspx?PageNo=4)
A delivery and destructoid sticker. 

*Gasps* *Goes to check their pages*

where do you get the stickers from?!

The modules more than likely. But, those don't seem to be out, or if they are, they haven't been released to the pages of the networkers. Anyone up to looking over pages for it?

I am... where should I start? I have nothing else to do...

Pedroen, he had the Concert one first =P

Nothing there...

Try JJ or someone... And this is just a guess, because it happened last time.

I've been hitting "visit a friend" this whole time, haven't found anyone yet, but I'll keep looking.

Hmm... How long did it take for the modules to be put up last time?

not that long... and... nothing yet.

From what I saw, The Destructoid Game Module Blueprint will be given to Beta Testers.
Based on this message found in the encrypted part of the New XML...


subject="Psssst...could you help me out?" text="Good day to you! I have
tested one of our new Arcade games called Destructoid for some time

Well looky here... http://mln.lego.com/en-us/Help/ModuleGuide.aspx?PageNo=13 (http://mln.lego.com/en-us/Help/ModuleGuide.aspx?PageNo=13) Looks like they're coming really soon. Also, all the modules aren't in ahplabetical order anymore, something like ranks 0-9.
World Event badge here: http://mln.lego.com/en-us/Help/badge.aspx?PageNo=1 (http://mln.lego.com/en-us/Help/badge.aspx?PageNo=1) :P
Also, the blueprints list has been updated.

EDIT: Woah look at this! http://mln.lego.com/en-us/Help/blueprint.aspx?PageNo=8 (http://mln.lego.com/en-us/Help/blueprint.aspx?PageNo=8) I guess videos are like stickers.

I thought it was the joker at my first glance. :D Those ears are freaky. :P

*looks at his local time*

Maybe, I hope!

Online at 4:30 again? =P

Interesting, but unless they're releasing the stuff later(Which I won't be on to enjoy because I'll be playing GT or so ;)), then it's not done yet...

I wish there was some point to the Agori trophy mod lol. ::)

Aw, stuff, the inventory's reset itself AGAIN!

I wonder what they did this time?

They're probably trying (and failing) to make Raanu's message work. =P

Yes, because once again, they totally underestimated how quickly players would advance.

Sometimes I wish the would just wait to release stuff until it was complete...

Yes, but I GOT IT! WOOT! ;D ;D ;D (not really)

It's on my page right now.
 (even though Tarduk34 had it first)

WHAT??!1!????!!???1?!!!!??? How in the world did you get is so fast?????????????

Let's just say it took ALOT of clicks on Tarduk34's Bonehunter trap module.
*coughabout200cough*

EDIT: Tarduk34 Also has the Agori Trophy module.  Alot of people are getting the Bonhunter trap module.
Check in general discussion, in "the bionicle rank"

I spent about 160 on it.  It was rather sporadic in deciding whether or not to give me the blades.

QFT.  :P

Oh.. bogdanthehockeyfreak also has a trap module should anyone be interested.

Bot everyone! :P

i think it's something with iconox flavor

Remember people, this topic is about the Arcade stuff!

really? i see that epopel are posting bionicle.


hey uraw canyou go to mln? everyone's pages couldn't load

And they're not supposed to, that's supposed to be in the Bionicle news topic.

Hop is now on Echo's page!
Don't believe me? Check out what my brother found.
http://mln.lego.com/en-us/PublicView/DarkChaos00.aspx

I've played it... His is really easy... make them all and you get 10 blue bricks.. miss one and you get 2 arcade tokens...

He set it up easy because he wanted other people to win it. I also have it.

I have Destructoid.  I have no idea what the point is, I guess I'll have to play someone else's.

I have a Destructoid up. As well as a HOP.

Ok, I just got Hop, and I'm hoping to get everything else I'm missing after I get caught up on everything! 6 pages of stuff to look at...

Look at this guy...MLN-Pinball-Wizard. Rank 0
http://mln.lego.com/en-us/Publicview/MLN-Pinball-Wizard.aspx

He has both concerts plus destructoid & hop.
At first I thought he was like MLN-Arcade, but then I realized he also has 3 mag mods up...so now I am not sure...

Well I wouldn't be worried unless he gets Haul too. =P

OK... I am having problems with Destructiod... I have won HOP, but when I try destructiod, I cannot getthe game to do anything... the arrow keys do nothing. One person's game started me with 96 energy, one with 5...and no obstacles.  Is there a glitch, or am I doing something wrong???

Your supposed to hit the A and S buttons, and the 1, 2, and 3 buttons.

I got dustructoid from you... It's on my page...

*facepalm*
I guess I didn't read the instructions right... Thank you!

It took me a while to figure out the controls.  Then the next time I looked at the controls list and it became clearer.  :P

Hey CRX, how'd you get that new theme? Just curious. And how'd you get Destructoid?

Destructoid's pretty cool actually =) Hop's interesting too.

Try wilson732. His is really hard (MLNO: ~BlackTerror~)

Blade - Atakus' page. ;)

You can try mine... I just redid it.

Anyone looking for a challenge could also try JPMI...
he says here
http://www.mlnteam.net/my-lego-network-general-discussion-f1/destructiod-be-the-first-one-to-beat-it-on-my-page-t3194.htm (http://www.mlnteam.net/my-lego-network-general-discussion-f1/destructiod-be-the-first-one-to-beat-it-on-my-page-t3194.htm)that his has 74 tries and no wins...

His IS hard!

It's impossible. I think he can beat it in his Test, but we are not not able to beat it on his page

... Even using the secret way to win, it doesn't work.

Exactly what I said before. (also check at his post earlier)

I hope something to occupy us comes soon... I'm bored as a board...

I beat yours... I had 2 energy left over.

Has anyone else seen this on the Blueprint list?

 
First movie item Blueprint

First movie item Blueprint
10 Red LEGO Bricks

Actually it was already noted on here somewhere, but what post or topic I don't know...

I searched for it in all the topics it would normally be in..

uraw posted that (kinda) right here.\/
http://mln.smfforfree4.com/index.php/topic,2192.msg70187.html#msg70187
2nd Post

i beat ace's. i had 6 energy left over.


click my destucoid module!!

Huh? What happened to the guy with huge ears and glasses?! :P

yes. i saw that here: http://mln.lego.com/en-us/Help/blueprint.aspx?PageNo=8

What guy?!

Brickkeeper possibly  :P

What really stinks is that I can't even play my Destructoid module and test how hard it is T.T

Actually a freaky clown.

Wierd, the Movie blueprint looks exactly like the Gallery module, rank 2 blueprint. :-\

Probably because they changed it from it's ORIGINAL appearance, which was a freaky clown-ish guy with huge ears and glasses =P

I wonder why they don't like the possessed clown...?

Dunno, maybe they thought kids wouldn't like it =P

Probably. However, I liked him because he looked so weird.

xD Yeah, he was pretty... Interesting =P

Pretty interesting, no, he was VERY interesting. And weird. And scary. Maybe they got the pictures mixed up, who knows.

Y'know, it was this guy, from a 1974 commercial, which you can see on My LEGO TV?

(http://i483.photobucket.com/albums/rr191/Jas765/Picture15.png)

Interesting... Maybe they just used the wrong image...?

/EDIT: In other news, it seems Rakoua's holding onto a spot on the Destructoid Top Ten! Please make sure he keeps it by playing his module =D

//EDIT: No, Rakoua got that glitch again which made him lose(Even if he gets it back whenever it's played for a bit) his spot in the Top Ten temporarily! Please play his Destructoid Module.

I will... as soon as I get my clicks back.

please see

How come my module has more clicks than the top ten modules yet it isn't listed?
The top pages and modules are ranked in such a way as to enable more users to get a chance to rise to the top. If you have more clicks on your module, you were on the charts at some point, and the system is just allowing for others to share the spotlight.


http://mln.lego.com/en-us/Help/faq_CategoryModulesandtrade.aspx#Modulesandtrade3

Yet EVERYONE else on that top ten hasn't been bumped off randomly. Care to explain that one...? And the Concert one used to do that; it was fixed ;)

You may not like it, but boy are the rewards useful. Especially for Rank 9ers, because you can merge the White Bricks to get Grey Bricks.

True, espically for mantles.

Huh.  All I've gotten out of Desdtructoid are some Dino Fangs, a whole bunch of Loose Sparks, and about a gazillion Destructiod Arcade BPs.  No white bricks, or arcade tokens.  :(  Is there some kind of trick to it?!??

I've gotten some white bricks...

I haven't gotten ANY white bricks at all.

I did...

Electro Pellet Inductor Module Blueprint

(http://i67.servimg.com/u/f67/13/37/58/27/captur10.png) (http://www.servimg.com/image_preview.php?i=8&u=13375827)

I it was  found  here:
http://mln.lego.com/en-us/Help/blueprint.aspx?PageNo=7

*SIGH* not more pellets...

Well, HOPEFULLY this'll grow more with a bigger harvest limit, so it's not as tedious and hard, but we should've seen this coming with the new LOU Networkers.

Not again.........*Puts up plastic inductor just in case* :P

That can continue in the LOU Networker news topic... >_>

From MLNT

Those are Messages Networkers would send out.(incomplete by the looks of it)

If I had to guess, It's probably going to be stickers from a new LEGO Star Wars Game.

But they usually have a properly themed networker hand them out.

No... Since it's just gotten into '09, and last I checked, the last LSW game was The Complete Saga, which was in '07.

It would be great to have a SW rank.

Echo's page has a new Code Entry Module on it...

 :o :o :o A star wars rank?! *faints*

I'm guessing it will be like the bionicle 'rank', where you just get ranked badges.

Still, anything SW would be awesome...

QFT
Especially if they use some classic SW characters...

Or, some of the EU characters... like the ones that got killed off *coughmycharactercough*

Mara Jade dies? =O

*cough*Anyway, it'll be interesting to see where you get codes for the code mod.

They need to make new av parts, and that would be an interesting way to get them. =O

I've gotta agree. If they make a black robe type of shirt, like they did for white and beige, I'd be very happy ^_^

Some racers shirts would be cool.  As well as some new pants and hats options.

They might do some pirates elements or other new rank-themed stuff.

... They already have that though =P If they made another Knight, it'd make sense to have something like my LOU mini-fig, but unfortunately... There's nothing announced =/

Sadly... yes :'(

Oh, a little... bird told me that its a mix of letters and numbers for the code module...

If you get it, mind not revealing it just yet?

Don't worry, I won't. Nothing I've used so far has worked...

It's right under your noses, guys... that is all I will say,

Oh, and Have you seen my NEW BADGE???

*SIGH* I'm not good at guessing...

PWNAGE!!! I got the badge... with MsRR's "clue". >:D But you were right. ;)

Here's a pic...
(http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/uraw/MLN/lego_world_event_badge.png)

Argh, I've wasted 10 clicks just trying to get that badge.

Don't worry... you're not the only one wasting clicks for the badge...(well, not now for me)

I expect the answer to be all over the lmb's within days.

True. People can sometimes never keep a secret.(I hope to solve sooner than when it ever does spread in the lmb's)

And that's the sad thing, because it's the Magazine badge ALL over again.

*Sigh* I've wasted about all of my 92 clicks... and to no avail...

No offense to anyone, I mean it is a really cool badge but why do you care about a badge or award that you haven't earned?

I read all over this site about keeping folks from cheating by posting codes or the Dupe Destroyers but yet many of you try anything you can to get a badge you haven't earned...

I had someone PM'ing me about getting some hack to get another badge that I don't have and did not qualify for.  I said no thanks, it would just ring hollow to me.

All I am saying is you should strive for a consistent cheating policy, either its OK or it isn't.


My $.02

100% agreed.

I know the badge code, but I'm not going to use it.  I didn't go to the event, so putting that badge on my page would be LYING.  And for me, that would be lying to tens if not hundreds of thousands of people.

When I got the badge by guessing, I thought we were supposed to... like a publicity campaign for the event... and I am pretty good at guessing stuff..
I never thought of it as lying or cheating. Now I wish there was a way to get it off my page.

I understand that.  You should just explain that to Lego and ask that they remove it, as should others who got it.

They'd probably respect y'all a lot for that.

That's true.
I'm gonna stop trying to get it, now.

Yeah, I've spent enough clicks as it is, so I'm not going to waste anymore.

I spent only a few clicks on it, Ekingsley has a very good point. I never attended a LEGO World Event, so there is no point for me to have the badge.

Well, I guess i'll stop then. (now i wish i could participate in the beta testing for racers game thing if possible later) But yeah, i'll stop.

I sent LEGO an email :
I need to know a way to remove a badge from my page.
The LEGO World Event badge, gotten from Echo's Page.
When I got the badge by guessing the code, I thought we were supposed to... like a publicity campaign for the event... and I am pretty good at guessing stuff.. I did not know the prize would be a badge.  When the mail from Echo was deleted, the badge appeared on my page.
I never thought of it as lying or cheating. Now I wish there was a way to get it off my page, because I do not want to have a badge for an event I did not attend. Can you please help with this?
Thank you,
Have a Happy Day,
MsRowdyRedhead.

I will let you guys know their response, in case someone else wants to remove the badge.

That would make sense to me.  *envies you for going to a Lego event* =P

I went to a LEGO World Event in 2004 or 2005... But I think this badge is for the current event.

But guys, the badge isn't the only thing you can get from the code module. According to Vanderdeckn12, you can also find out the name of the secret networker and get a module. I don't think that he's lying.

I'm not positive but I think he is talking about the LU codes from the Newsletter which do not got in that same Module.  You enter them on the LU site.

That said I would have to imagine the Code Module will be used for more in the future.

... That's the LOU codes that you enter at the VIP part >_> Not related to Echo. And the code is the only one for the module right now apparently.

Hey buddy, I love the little twist on your username, do you love writing? Sorry I'm still playing catch up, what's this forum about?

FAIL. ::)


Oh well, you said you went to a Lego event so I'd say keeping the badge is fine.

I don't get it,what's the code. Can you please tell me

Um... No one is suppose to tell the code at all because last time that happened, it spreaded, and lots of mln people found out how to get the magazine badge.

I remember that, I'm afraid I was one of the guilty parties there, sorry MAGAWHAT? 0:)

oh, the world badge?

Could you at least give me a hint

No hints, no revealing, no telling. That is final.

I'm not sure if LEGO can remove badges, but I'm pretty sure that LEGO can add badges to your account.


*joins legodac's guilty party*  0:)

could we guess? An then you tell us if it's wright or wrong? But we do this through PM's so only he gesser gets it?

There will be no guessing, revealing, asking, etc.

Nothing at all.

You (and others) aren't getting the point - you haven't earned the badge - you don't get it.

ah, ok then.

Ok sorry about before I should never ask that question, but hey I got good news I got the badge!!! ;D

yeah... good point.
Bad news, I got the badge. :'(

So what happened since this post?

nothing but people saying they got the badge.

I never got a reply back about removing it except the form letter... >:(

I was talking to HS, wondering why after we told him he shouldn't look for the code, he did anyway.

Now people are trying to tempt people to sell the code. :(

Quote from matau7417:
I'll give you 91 tiers, a spoiler, and 21 solar cells if you tell me Echo's code. Or 100 apples. Or all of my flowers. Or Dino fangs and a Dino scale. Your choice. DO NOT L >:(

I don't know why they want the badge so bad. It's nothing special. It just shows that you went to a Lego World Event.

Most people would try to get it because they are desperate and like to collect, or they just wanna have it on there page to show they're cool.

Most people would want to get whatever is new, and awsome.

REMEMBER... BADGE SELLING is AGAINST the RULES of this forum. That means for everyone.

All i can say is... i agree. Being cool is overrated.

Indeed.  Right now, I'm extremely popular in the LU CL, and consequently I'm gaining attention on MLN.  But you know what?  What if LU doesn't come out for another 10 years?  What if no one likes LU when it comes out?  What if all of the Lego servers crash and they lose MLN, the LU CL, and everything else on Lego.com?  What if, in this tough global economy, Lego goes bankrupt?  If any of that happens, my popularity will vanish without a trace.  What matteres is that I stuck to my beliefs and wrote quality stories that adhere to and (I believe) exemplify my moral beliefs.

Ahem.

BOT now... :-[ ::) :P

Thats true.


Being cool is overrated. I'm not cool In my eyes, but some people do. So I guess I'm somewhat cool to them.


I know. I saw that on the Lego message boards.

actully at least 2 people in LMB said the code out : (

and it's been all over gamespot, brickshelf, and BZP.

Maybe we have higher standards.

is possible msrr.

btw is there any truth about there being 2 codes???

I haven't heard anything about a second code. There's the Echo Code and the LU Code, neither of which are to be given out, but both are for different things and have different entry points.

Well, believe it or not, there are rumors going around about a second (non badge related  :P ) code for echo's safe module.

its supposed to give you items......

Oops! almost forgot!
is the bio code to get an exclusive Tuma sticker allowed to be discussed?

I don't think so....

Anything that's given out in a newsletter, magazine, or at an event can't be shared, unless an admin says so. And as I said, I haven't heard anything about this new code... What's it supposed to give?

look at my page. (the tuma sticker....)

duh...........





EDIT: <Removed>

tuma sticker? OSSIM!!!

Yeah,i have the Tuma sticker.

Pandobikini3 is #1 arcade mod. That guy is so annoying.

yeah. He's a SERIOUS duper. almost like another admiral_aeka.

I know,it is so sickening to see people doing that stuff,although i admit i duped a few times before i joined.

I saw that today on the LMB's...I knew it was hogwash!

I know... I saw it earlier... I hate that! It's on every networker announcement. Why must they show pando? He dupes like nobody's business.

*grunts*

I didn't see that,but i won't even bother.

I did the MAJORITY of my duping before joining,which wasn't much anyway. I didn't even know the term duping anyway.

BOT-when are they gonna do that LU minirank? I have got to get another badge,i won't until the House badges.

Yeah. I hate it when they tell us about these things but never say WHEN.

Yeah,i guess that is true. But still........................ ......

Yeah,and like i said,not much longer wait.

I see 3 new Networkers...

Well... I wish this had come out before I submitted my new set, lol.

hmmmm... interesting!

I have the New LU Concert Module on my Page...

EDIT:

For those late on seeing the LU Networkers the Prices of everything have just skyrocketed!!!  I got through the rank using less than 200 Plastic Pellets but all the prices just went up 10 - 25 times what they were for the first couple hours they were out.

I am so disappointed they can't get these things right the first time.

WHAT O.O

Well that's great.  It cost 200 for those lucky enough to see it quick, and it's going to cost the rest of us nearly THIRTEEN THOUSAND plastic pellets.

That's right, 13,000.  20 sea monster baits to CJK, 10 sushis per, 50 to get each of those.  Add in the sparbot and miscellaneous blueprints and you're at 13K.

Mind you I'm glad you got through it without the crazy prices, it just stinks for the rest of us.  This'll probably take ME weeks... I shudder to think what it'll take people with normal click rates.

Yeah I feel a little weird about it...  You can win Sushi in the Concert module on my page (2 at a time).  Besides 13,000 pellets with the rate you get clicks that should take you about 3 days ;)  Just kidding!

Uh...  I'll give you 100 clicks a day on it until I get all the sushi I need, if you change it to only one arrow thingy falling down each time (preferably at the beginning).  I'm sure plenty of other people will do the same with their daily clicks too...

When MLN comes back up I can do that.

I have one with only a arrow ;)

Yours has two. =P  And when they're together like that, they never seem to work. >_<

  :-[ I didnt know that. I can not use MLN yet :'(

I have won from it a few times, but if one is perfect the other is just "good"

No worries, no worries.

Whoever gets a working one-arrow mod up first gets my 100 a day until I'm done with the mission.

Mine is up!

http://mln.lego.com/en-us/PublicView/ekingsley.aspx

Cool.

P.S: I'm now rank 6! ;D ;D  ;D

Thats the day Pokemon Platinum is suppose to come out.
I'm still waiting for the Fixed Fork thingy.

now why on earth would someone want to break their addiction to bionicle? thats why people made Bzpower!!!! whats wrong withy you? ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

I hear that. I hear that. :)
I'm saving money for Platium. ;D I already pre-ordered it. >:D
But were getting off-topic. :(

XD

best decisions? */raises eyebrow/*

anyways, yes, BOT.

this LU minirank would probably be impossible without electro pellet induceors and Felix's concert modules.

and BTW, i am now selling worn tuning forks at biomart.

You can get them for free from Felix... If you are selling whole ones that would be a deal...

I don't think the whole ones are mailable... maybe they are... I don't think so, though.

But why would anyone sell something others can get for free???

I wouldn't. =P

@ekingsly - thanks dude, I dumped my clicks on it. =)

Update - you only need 5 bait to get the harpoon handle now.  That takes out like 7500 pellets from the whole process.  :)

That plus the prizes from the concert mod means I'll be done with the mission tomorrow or the next day. ::)

Holy cow! You and i are like twins!

Do you have periods where your life is devoted to one thing or game for 6 months,then you don't go near that thing for 6 months? I know i will be doing the same with Plat.

I just hope i can somehow get my dad to change the security. I will bribe him if i have to........................... ....

I have noticed 10K would solve all my problems. I could get that if only that director would call and not get disconnected................. .......I am not a career actor though,and this would be one thing.

BOT-i will take approach and wait for prices to go down(hopefully).

Happy 450th post to me.

I

Prices went down.  See my above post. :)

I know,i saw. I never knew they changed this stuff.

No problem!  I will leave it up for a while so folks can have a chance to catch up.  Besides this is the closest to being the "first" to have something I will ever get on MLN ;)

http://mln.lego.com/en-us/PublicView/ekingsley.aspx

I do find it odd that LEGO can't get the values right BEFORE they go live with a new Mini Rank...

Well, well, well. Looky here:
http://mln.lego.com/en-us/Help/blueprint.aspx?PageNo=5
Delivery will be out really soon.
Just Like he predicted. :)

Haha, nice going. ;D

Thin you could predict when my second LU creation will be approved???

Whenever mine is. =P

I'm sure it'll be within 3 days, hopefully tomorrow.

I need to put mine back in. :P

FYI: I do also have the consert module up, with one left arrow at the start

same here

They dropped the prices again >_<  Now I have too much stuff, and roughly the same number of pellets as I started with.

Man. I never knew they did this stuff. But i am just gonna keep waiting until they go lower.

I doubt they even could... >_<

I've got a one-arrow concert mod up as well now.  Link in sig.

I knew there was a reason I waited to start it 'til later =D

how much did they drop it by? I'm very lost at the moment...
oh, and CRX, make your module 1 arrow in the middle/right side. the up arrow, please.  ;D

It doesn't really matter.  At this point, it shouldn't be a big deal for anyone, regardless of how popular you are.  You can get everything you need from the concert mods in just a couple days.

I have gotten a lot of stickers.....

I can never timee the one-arrow ones right. I don't play much arcade(although i have a few).

Both creations were approved this morning...

I think I posted it a couple of times...

I don't even know what i want to make for the challenge. I will probably use LDD.

i jist used paint to drad a brick  ;D

took about30 seconds  :D

No offense but the whole approval for this challenge burns me up.  I have a few friends and I and we all tried to be creative with our submissions and all of them got rejected the first time (before I got to make another submission mine changed from rejected to approved so somebody stepped in but still).  My second submission got rejected as well BTW.

At first all I saw were a bunch of pictures of 2x2 bricks and drawings of Echo.  How the heck is that productive or meaningful?  If the challenge requires a submission and they are going to be a pain about it then creativity should be a factor.

I will get off my soapbox now, again no offense to folks that got through with a picture of a brick.  It isn't your fault, it is LEGO who has a lame approval process for what is allowed and what will be rejected.

I'm getting creative, wait'll you see my entry, should it get approved(And I don't see why it wouldn't). Of course, Dudebot'll see it coming from like a mile away... =P

I kinda agree... even my own thought was "how can I get this accepted quick", the answer to which was "resubmit the one I just submitted a couple weeks ago."  I personally wouldn't want to submit a lame creation and didn't have time or ideas to make something awesome having just done so recently, yet I still really wanted something to be accepted on short order.

I'm waiting for Plastic Pellets currently... am I the first to win the LU Video and get the first Video here?
It's just the three new Netowrker animations with the music and LU Background thrown in.

And since Max will mail us the Delivery, I have unblocked him.

no, your not the first. and videos just aren't all that.  :-\

1. I got it last night or so... Certainly not what I thought it would be >_>

2. That did get confirmed? Un-oh. *Goes to unblock him*

I think it is from him,IDK.

happy 475th post to me.

BOT please.
The LU quest is surprisingly boring, IMO.

2 2x2 Yellow Bricks, 1 4x2 Yellow Brick?

Two of the bricks that are in the image beside my name in yellow, and one with four more studs on either end, one of the eight studded ones. You put one of the two on the yellow one, and the other on the bottom, and you've got the click sign ;)

Oh, ok xD

Echo?

How about Friendly Felix's Instruments?

But, can we get BOT?
IMO, the Concert isn;t rewarding enough in the LU rank... you can get the Concert 1 and 2 easier.

Why does it always have to be about what you GET??

The journey isn't about the destination, it is about who you become to get there.

I think it's just that normally you get a badge or something at the end, which didn't happen this time ;)

LOL :D

(http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/uraw/MLN/lol_lego_mods...png)

Just awesome!!! ::)

Rejected???

Ah, someone probably used my creation already.

http://factory.lego.com/gallery/?parameters=1||echo (http://factory.lego.com/gallery/?parameters=1||echo)

It's a big hit y'know. ::) Nine copies so far. (the original is on page 3)

>_> Now that's just... Not allowing the original, but allowing copies. *Facepalms* Good job.

Here's my new submission:

It's Echo! Echo! This one of my best mosaic creations with LDD.

Note to mods: I did not copy this, I actually built it :)

I wonder what they'll do. :D

EDIT: I found the person. >:D It seems thayduk (here (http://us.universe.lego.com/en-us/CreationLab/DisplayCreation.aspx?id=d9b48027-072c-4f30-b2a7-21647a171a7a&challengeId=&SearchText=echo&SearchIn=89ABE7F3-C190-49DD-AE3D-91D7F3270279&Sort=&MemberId=&Tag=&BackToPage=9)) copied Stefan008 (here (http://factory.lego.com/gallery/?parameters=1||echo), 9th creation) who copied me. :D

both of mine were :'( *SIGH*

And, being on uraw's side, I was the one that uploaded that for him - His LDD wasn't working.

10 more sushi and i have my tuning fork handle!

But you do need 4, right?

you need 5 sushi & 5 plastic pellets to make a sea monster bait. you need 4 sea monster bait to gat the handle.

OK, because I got it before it costed so much...

On the creations posted on Creation Lab on the MLN challenge, 1/2 of the people said what they like about MLN the most. I don't know if this is why they are regecting most of them or not.

Does Something that rhyme count? "MLN assortment Bin."


EDIT: *More evidence about Delivery*: http://mln.lego.com/en-us/Help/ModuleGuide.aspx?PageNo=13
It will Be one slot.
It will probably be given out by Max or be put on his page. (probably given)
It will be released soon.

There is no evidence on Haul yet, saddly. :(
But we Know that it will be on Grok's page. :)

Sweet, a one slot game! =O

Hmmm...that'll be a small maze...

Hopefully it'll be expanding like the concert mods.

Hopefully they learned from Destructoid and Hop =P ... Oh no, this means if the last one's one or two slots... MLN Arcade can have them all, except if it's two slots, he can't have Friendly Felix's module, though he'd have to somehow get through the mini-rank first somehow.

Without the plastic pellets? =P

I like the fact Delivery will be one slot... maybe haul will be two Slots... equalling...
Hop and Destructoid: 3 slots (Half a Page)
The Three Concerts: All one slot, but all together, 3 slots. ( Quarter of a page)
Delivery: One slot. (1 Ninth of a Page)
Haul: Unkown.
So if Haul is Two slots, you can have a page full of arcades!

True, he could still have it be full without having to take a concert down because of the SOundtrack he has up now.

Two Words: Felix Concert. He has Arcade Tokens, tons of them ;)

Oh, right. He can win Plastic pellets too. Forgot that.
Delivery... I command you to come out at the start of april...

Eh, it should be out this month. I hope.

That would be even better.

*Unblocks Max*
Hope it's not glitchy like Destructoid...

That's true... And since it's only one slot, I'm taking down one of my Concert Modules and replacing it with this =P

Concert isn't really good for me... Something like Delivery should be better.
*Hopes the Prizes span across all the ranks and you can win Totemic Animals from them*

That'd just be asking a lot from it for the TAs =P Elements or so maybe, but that's too expensive an item ;)

Okay then... I wonder what Haul's prizes will be...
Since it comes from Grok, probably some higher-ranked stuff like destructoid.

I hope Grey, White, Black, Trans, and other stuff. Stuff that'll help Rank 8-10ers.

That would be good for speeding some inactive people up.

Or people lagging behind, or just plain help with Rank 9 =P

Trans bricks are always the holdup...

Yeah, it's like the original Plastic Pellet module, only... worse =P But, at least the Rocket Game fixes that. But it's too late by then, unless you want to help others. =/ If there's a Rank 10 extension, or a Rank 11, it better use a lot of Trans Bricks =P

when are these thing gunna come out ???

We don't know yet, but we're guessing this month for Delivery =) And I was just hoping for the other stuff.

Delivery... what prizes will it give?

And I hope it's cheap to make.

*To Lego Magazine Badge Owners*

Did anybody get a message from Max entitled, " Psst, Club buddy-Did you know?"?
He asked what secret networker was your favorate.
I picked Knumb Chuck. He then gives you tips on what to do If you picked any char.
For Something...

yes i got the message. he gives you {a mail}

Tips on what to do...? *Is a little confused*

Didn't you get one Blade?

I probably did, but I haven't been able to go on MLN yet, I'll go on after lunch...

I got one... I replied Capt. Jack Knife... all he said is that CJK was one of his favorite networkers... nothing helpful.
Why did he mail a helpful response if you said Numb Chuck...?

He said the same when I replied with Numb Chuck...

Then... what about friendly felix or Professor Brickkeeper?

Must be something...

Maybe to make statistics

It is the instructions for getting the Concert mod, which many of us have. They are just behind schedule, as usual!

OR, maybe it's for those who don't know about the LU quest yet...?

I don't think they are behind schedule I just think they are trying to give folks that are not as on top of things as we are a chance to catch up.

Besides it is to their benefit to get as many creations submitted to the Creation Lab as possible.

OR maybe they're going to make it easier to get your creation approved?!

do u STILL not have an approved creation thing yet MJ ?

I'm on my fourth creation so far. If this one doesn't get approved, then I'm not doing the LU quest.

Some people reclassified/ resubmitted things that had already been approved for this challenge.

Even if it is dorky, you can delete it after you have the BP if you want.

Yeah, I know. But, it gets depressing seeing 2 red lights all the time.

I received that message and replied "Friendly Felix" and received the same tips that everyone seems to be talking about. One thing I did notice is that Max's first message referred to the LEGO Club House challenge on LU. I haven't done that one yet but when I went to look at it today I saw that it had secret content... did it always?

I am going to say Delivery comes out the 11th or 18th. They started the last quest on Weds.,and lego isn't too creative sometimes..........

When it comes,i hope i can set it up quick. I don't know what time zone MLN-Arcade is on,but i hope it is west Coast,i will have 3 hours on him.

The challenge unlocks a wallpaper and a video of the chicken dance...

I've been sending in everything I can think of that is MLN related. And it keeps getting rejected. I'm not the greatest builder, but my stuff can't be that bad... :-\ Anyways, I submitted a picture of 1 red brick, just to see if I get through.

Well,it should,there are dozens of that sort of thing.

Well, mine is still pending... they rejected the 1st one because it was "too blurry"

No, really, that was the excuse they gave.

Nope, nothing about any other sites, other than My Lego Network.

LEGO has rejected many photos as too blurry...

Ok, the 3 creations I got approved were NOT for this challenge, and were approved in July of last year. As for the 3 that DIDN'T get approved. here's what the rejections said:

a... link? can't you only view other people's accepted creations?

*laugh* Thanks for clarifying MsRR.  :D

I wonder when delivery and Haul will come out...

Pretty soon,if when he is right again.

Probably, he's right.

Hope it comes out next week or the week after... Destructoid and Hop's blueprints came out before it was available to get them, correct?

I think... but I'm not sure.

Anyone attempting the LU quest? I will start when the new Networkers come out,if they do.

I think maybe the delivery BP will be sent out by Max. Other than that,I agree.

It did say it would be mailed out by max.
Not through a Code.

Where did it say that? *Sighs*

Here. (http://mln.lego.com/en-gb/network/delivery.aspx)
Max doesn't have room for an extra Trade Module, and I don't think LEGO wants to repeat the Magazine Code, and I got that from the LMBs from someone.

True, but they've already almost repeated it three times now... =P

Oh, yeah.
*coughcodemodulemagazinecodeothercodes*
But I hope Delivery expands.
And anyone know what its prizes are yet?

Not yet, but I haven't looked...

I found this on another site...

The delivery sticker amount 1 6%
Honey pie amount 1 19%
Delivery blueprint amount 1 4%
Nails amount 1 5%
Red lego brick amount 10 10%
Arcade token amount 2 19%
Heroic story amount 1 24%
Engine amount 1 13%


If true the prizes are pretty lame.

Yeah, I agree those prizes are pretty lame... 1 Nail for 5%?! I could grow 49 a week in Rank 5!
And you win 100 red bricks from a Hop, which has better prizes IMO.

agreed.

we need some r6 & up prizes....

Totally lame... I guess I won't play much.
Where did you get this info??

I guess the MLN Wiki. Just search up Delivery. Then again, wikis can be edited by anyone so they are not to be trusted.

I got it here...

http://mylegonetworkblog.blogspot.com/2009/03/delivery-module-soon.html

I think it was taken from the Wiki though and I can't vouch for the information until the game actually comes out.

With that said Delivery is somehow linked to Max.  To me that means low level prizes just like Hop is Echo's game and has fairly low level prizes.  So in that sense the information matches what I might guess the prizes to be.

I have much higher expectations for Haul.

yeah, i go there sometimes... good site - i trust it.

Well... If it's true, then... it's still not the greatest >_> At least have the Red Bricks higher or so...

I think the only reason I'd be farming it is for Heroic Stories =P Well, and the sticker and Module Blueprint... That is, if this is true.

wait a sec... eknigslley, is that YOU ?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?

Delivery is probably for the lowest ranks in the Network-Ranks 0-2, whereas Hop could be for 0-3, Concert Spans across various Ranks, Destructoid seems to be for 7-9 and Haul... will probably have Very-High Ranked prizes. (Who wants to bet it will have Nebs as a prize?)

MTM: 0_o What the... Who are you talking to/about?

MT: Hopefully... =/

Wait... Blade, you posted exactly 1 second after me... creepy.
BOT,
What are you talking about, MTM?
And yes, Ekingsley did post.

1. Whoa 0_o

2. That's what I'm wondering too >_>

If you are talking to me you butchered my name pretty good but yeah I guess it's me.  Does that surprise you?

yeah, it does.

guys, go to the blog's home page and read the peice of news about Max's LU networker poll. you'll see what i mean.

Yeah I wrote it...  So what?  I happen to belong to more than one site is there something wrong with that?  The guy who runs that site gave me author privileges and I used them the day Max sent out the message...

We are way off topic...  Am I missing something?  Don't even say I was spamming for that site because I didn't link to it until MsRR asked where I got the info.  If I am missing something please get to the point so we can get this topic back on topic.

sorry. and its not a problem - its actually really cool!

OK, Thanks then.   Just be careful when you post, it is impossible for someone to infer your "tone" when posting.  It looks like what you meant and what I inferred where very different.  Lots of crazy punctuation can do that.

No harm done...  Back on Topic. 

k. BOT then.

anyone got a clue how to get the bonehunter trap mod? it really dosen't seem to come from gladitoran arena.... :-/

You're screwed then. You don't get it from GA- they were just early rumours.
Only those finished after January 22nd could get it.

It seems that way >_> And it DEFINITELY doesn't come from GA, unless it's a future update or from the Download version. But I 100%ed it, and it's not from that.

dang...

Soo... did anyone find something in XML?

First there is a new Sticker for Haul...

(http://cache.lego.com/upload/contentTemplating/MyLEGOItems/images/1033/pic6B4C248105F271952CE27CA81DE7F0BE.png) (http://mln.lego.com/en-us/Help/StickerGuide_Name.aspx?PageNo=7)


Well in trying to confirm the Delivery Prizes I found this...

/Please don't put up the code ;)

Doing further research on the "Guest Yield" area I am able to translate the ItemID to the following...

Delivery Arcade Sticker
Honey Pie
Delivery Blueprint
Nails
Red LEGO Brick
Arcade Token
Heroic Story
Engine

This Confirms the Prizes right from the XML unless LEGO Changes them.


The last LEGO Magazine E-mail came out on February 20th.  I would think the next E-mail would probably follow to come out around March 20th.  My guess is that will be the source of the Delivery blueprint in some way either through a code, new networker, or other means LEGO has devised.




Other XML related to Delivery...


Delivery Help Code...



To me this makes the Game a little intriguing but the prizes are confirmed to be rather lame and aimed at lower level players who don't have the same resources to obtain tokens to play the game with...

At least it only takes up one slot on your page.

Man! I was hoping they would be for rank 5!

agreed.

I believe you just spamed,mtm.

 ???

Spam again. ::)

Delivery=Lame.
The concept is intrigueing... but it could have much better prizes.
I mean, 1 NAIL for FIVE PERCENT CHANCE?
That's the worst prize I've ever seen.

It is, and I found out yesterday >_> The only reason I didn't mention was because it would be confirming I took a dive into the XML. And just a note, I'd like the basic coding to remain out(Ok, I may have gone overboard with removing the text tags >_>''), like the id Numbers... ;)

I will make sure I don't copy and paste next time.  ;)

As for "diving into the XML" it is no worse than viewing the page source of any web page which any browser lets you do.  You really can't modify it by looking at it that way.  It would take a lot more knowledge and work then I want to give to get that far.  I really see no problem LOOKING at the xml, it really isn't that hard to find.  But of course you will have to find it yourself as I did.

Also another guess, this one isn't far fetched either.  I think there will be at least a 1 month gap between the release of Delivery and Haul.  They will not be released at the same time like Destructoid and Hop were.

If LEGO isn't going to release a challenging Mini-Rank how about at least 1 or 2 real ranks.  If not that how about a crazy idea and do a parallel Rank path.  By that I mean a new Rank 1-10, new users could pick their path, once a user reaches Rank 10 in either path they can then do the other path.  It may be that Rank 0 is the same for both.  While users could not work both paths at once trading of path specific items between paths would be permitted.  Just a crazy dream I had the other day...

Actually,i have thought about that too. The only problem would be if one was heavily favored,and not many would take the other path.

That would be what the end is for, to dive into the other path.

And I've got a suspicion that the XML could be abused, which is why I'm so cautious about it, not the XML file itself, but what could be done with it...

What is XML? ???

in all essentiality, its the HTML source code for MLN.

Neither do I, since Gatanui, Forum Mentor of BZP, goes into all the time.
The only problem is, you have to hack to get into the XML.

Right, this is not a hack.  We are just looking at something that anyone with just a little knowledge of websites can look at.  A hack would be figuring out how to mess with your avatar and make it transparent...

http://mln.lego.com/en-us/publicview/kamimura521.aspx

That is a hack and I wouldn't recommend trying it if you like your account.  I am actually surprised that account hasn't been shut down yet.

XML is just a plain text series of attributes for any type of program to look at.  It can be on the web or any number of other programs your computer might use.  In this case the XML isn't editable, at least not in any way I have figured out, it is just like looking at a plain text web page that you can't manipulate.  I know a fair amount about websites and looking at the XML in this way is not a hack or dangerous.

I have seen how you do what kamimura521 did and it is not the same thing at all.

Of course, XML doesn't list everything... there's still some code not listed.

Actually XML isn't really code at all.  Again it is attributes that another program uses in order to produce a result (in this case it has attributes for MLN objects).  Sure there are "tags" around the different objects but this is only so the program knows what it is looking at.

This particular XML I believe is there in order to make MLN page loads faster.  XML lookups are much faster than Database lookups.  If the program had to read a database for all that information every time it loaded a page then MLN would load slower.  Having the XML residing "where it does" allows MLN to work "better".

XML is only as good as the "code" that reads it whether it is HTML, Flash, ASP, PHP, or some higher level language.

Of course I just realized we strayed WAY off topic...  Sorry about that but it took me a long time to write that and I don't want it to go to waist...

Just to make this a little more on-topic.  They are giving folks a second chance to get the Electro-Pellet Generator...

http://us.universe.lego.com/en-us/newsnetwork/story.aspx?id=106758

I have a feeling LU is going to be a big part of MLN for the foreseeable future.

Yeah. Who knows what the new networkers will do?

I wish they would bring other themes in,though.

With all these LU-related stuff in MLN< they should just make a rank for it.
The two already there are almost near the rank of Rank 1... or higher...

that would be pretty cool.

New bionicle networkers coming in Sept.! Mata Nui, Scopio, etc.

Just to say. Did we all know that already?

This topic is actually about the concert mods right? BOT now...

Well this is about all Mln stuff right?

where'd u hear about the new bionicle networkers?

I agree, and this was about the new Arcade Top Ten thing, but it moved to all Arcade news.

Evidence please... and Skopio is a VEHICLE. It's not a living thing. ;)
That makes it sounds like lies just to get us hyped up and dissapointed. Sorry.

They've been out for a long time already. ;)

Yeah, some of us think they are going to be for Rank 11

I think they are tied to a Creator rank or something.

Possibly.  Maybe MLN will chose a few really dedicated users to help make Rank 11. 

Excuse me?

u get that a lot from legodac.  :D

I think Simon and Jamie's networkerness are prototypes. very early Prototypes for some of the Networkers that have came that weren't originally here. Then their pages were scrapped and thrown into a pot full of IFMs with laser cannons to destroy the pages.

So, Kaulus7, I'm still waiting for that 'evidence'.

I thought i heard they give out a Brickmaster badge.......Not sure.

Maybe... who knows... Haul and Delivery aren't out yet...

Yeah,when will they be released? We know it is soon-ish,but still.....

in a reply to a message that I sent to customer service, it was stated that Simon and Jamie will be part of a upcoming Creator theme, which will be released around the middle of this year. don't ask for the email, it was deleted and the deleted items folder was emptied months ago.

In the middle of the year? That's about June-ish... how do I know it will be a Mini-Rank?

you don't. it is the most likely option, though.

I don't see why tehy keep making mini-ranks. They should just make a rank 11.

QFT

Do you think they want more Rank 10s?

Probably, maybe they'll release it when I get there, which should take a few months =P

No, I'm talking on my side. I didn't anticipate both Platinum and LRC coming out around the exact same time =P(And deciding on only going on the comp in the mornings on Weekdays, a reason why I haven't been here.)

Grr......why did they create Simon and Jamie practically 8 months before they would be useful for anything?

DO NOT answer dramatic effect.

*ignores last part*

They were out about more than 12 months ago now. I think, at least...

Yeah.....

Anyway.........i wish that Delivery would come out already!

Probably on the last day of the month. I bet you 5 clicks that Haul will come out on the last day of may =P

*whilstles* Something tells me to expect some new members.

How long were the club pages around? Kinda paranoid i might not make Rank 10 by the time they upgrade again,if they do.

Since 2005 to early 08.

Oh,so we should have more time.

When will you come out,Delivery?

Middle of the month is my guess... but then again it may come out next monday or tuesday.

Mods?  More like slackers....

A few pages back, Kaulus7 said there will be an update to the BIONICLE quest in September. Without backup. Can anyone actually confirm that?

I'm pretty sure that was Glatorian Arena, not MLN...?
I'm confuzzled by the confuzzler now.

In his blog he said they might update in the summer ;)

Grrr..... Everywhere I look you are advertising for that contest!  :)

"mlno" does too come up with this site on google!

It doesn't for me..,, ???  I'm going to type in MLNO on i'm feeling lucky and see if it works

Worked for me, mostly... But this isn't to talk about MLNO and it's google searches... =/

Works for me too.

Well,the new LU Networker is confirmd to be a mailman.

Am i not allowed to say that? Livin' on the edge! ;D >:D

Lol!  Are you talking about the guy releasing delivery?  Or is that Max?  Anyway Jack Drill is just as much a dissapointment as the other networkers XD

I know. I rarely play the lego games unless there is a badge. No badge here. I am picky about my games,HIGH-QUALITY ONLY.

No, who said that was going to be a networker? Also it's a TV reporter.

CL: We don't know who's giving out Delivery, but Max is the most obvious choice. I just wanna know why it's not out yet... =/

Lionytai: No-one said it would, and no-one said it wouldn't.

@OB Yeah, we've been waiting for it!  Hello, LRC epidemic #2! :D
@all -brickgirl
....those were the days....

It was scheduled for that day, but they ran into a glitch serverside.

Does anyone actually know what the glitch was?

First, April 20th, now the week of May 11th, next May 18(2010 :) )

No, and they were on time with the Beta. Actually, I think they were actually early with the Beta.

The only reason they were on time was because they put forward a game full of glitches, therefore no arrangements were needed, along with no bad excuses. >_>
                                                                             

... Have you ever thought that they might have actually run into problems serverside, as they are somewhat common with huge games like this? And it was a beta game, glitches were to be expected, and reported so they could be fixed. I still think it'll be fully out within the next few days.

I am SO tired of everyone complaining about stuff they are getting for FREE.

LEGO is only a company of HUMANS... they are trying...

Check it out Brickers

                       http://space.lego.com/en-US/default.aspx

                       http://www.lego.com/en-US/products/default.aspx

                     

Hmm....i sense a disturbence in the Mini-quest MLN Force...

What's related to MLN there? It's the site for the '09 Space Police sets ;)

Yeah, new theme=/=new MLN Mini-rank.

Then again, I wish they would make a new one.

to quote Echo:
(the hyperlink doesn't work. I just put it there because it's in Echos message)

Hyper link probably just goes to the sign up page for the Club Magazine...

it goes to Maxs page...

*revives topic* Ok,seriously,when is Delivery coming out?!?

beats me. and how about haul?

IDK. I just wish they would come out.....

So do I... I want to see Haul's prizes.

I hope they're better than Delivery's- We know how extremely bad Delivery's prizes are.

Yeah. I know it's unlikely,but Totemic animals would make nice prizes....

Yeah... they would slo have a serious price drop.

*Also Hopes for TRANSPARENT and GREY bricks as prizes*

Yeah...those would be good prizes.

heavily valuable prizes 8)

what are those?

Well, you should go to the MLN Wiki page Delivery to see the prizes... I consider them bad, and I want Haul out.

It's been like 4 months now, and Haul nor delivery are out.  :'(

They'll hopefully come out soon...

how did they know?

. . . The same way we've known for months. The XML.

u guys, delivery comes in the lego magazine!!! its a code and u can get it from echo, haul, is from grok.

Sure, we all trust Lego with release dates right =D ?

Nice Sarcasm, Saturn. =P

Wait, has it been confirmed Delivery's in the LEGO Magazine?

what's XML? Sorry not good at abrrevs.

XML is the computer language that MLN uses for it's modules and it's animation and etc. It's basically a web page language like HTML and CSS and XHTML. eXtensible Markup Language

How do you go to the XML?

Blade has said not to post that here...

But it was he who mentioned XML... Never mind.

I only mentioned it because you asked about where we found it >>

And AFAIK, it hasn't been confirmed that's the way it's given out, plus there's the fact that it would be in the Canadian Club Mag, and the latest mag doesn't have it. Plus, it wouldn't be from Echo if it was in the Club Mag.

What's XML?  Is that like post feed?

No, that's just the method it's displayed at times in browsers and such.

ooohhhh, I still don't get it, but quite frankly, I don't need to

Does anyone know that Delivery is out?

http://mln.lego.com/en-us/publicview/ToaTime101.aspx

http://www.mlno.org/index.php/topic,3930.0.html

It has its own topic already. ;) :P

Yay! I get credited for once!

Heh,yeah. It'll take a while for me....legodac gave me the items i need(Or at least,most of them,not sure),but i still need 100 trans bricks and 100 Grey bricks. Not to mention the 34 more Grey Bricks  need for this Rank :P But enough rambling,i look forward to Haul.

I was.. uh testing u? ::)
