I was just a plain user on the LMBs, I only recently acquired mod status on here even. I didn't know many of the legends in person, mainly by reputation. Benboy I did know.
They were shut down to make way for LEGO Life, along with the Galleries.
1. I think you figured this out. 2. We got this one sorted out too. 3. They're based on posts. 4. Probably never. This place is a good substitute, though.
Thanks Con. I'm just seeing things now and I'm a bit behind so I'll do my best to respond to other posts as well. Belated CONgratulations to your newish status
There's a lot to catch up on. Thank ya, one of these days I'll be a pro.
He fired a quick round. I ducked, spun and released a boomerang. It whizzed by his head, he never flinched.
benboy755: Sure you’re not an Australian?
TheGreatCon: Sure you don’t want to use a dupe account for this fight?
Benboy also had a reputation as being one of the best conversant gamers, managing to hold conversations while thrashing opponents. It probably helped that he had a voice-to-text convertor.
I did some fancy maneuvers with my sharpened boomerang, which was merely me showing off. I couldn’t resist coding in a few useless showy moves last minute. He fired again, then pulled a hammer out of his armory and hurled it at me. I leapt over the bullets, which had been aimed low, and then as the hammer flew past I reached out and karate-chopped it out of the air. I turned, while drawing my sword, and blocked an incoming blow that I didn’t have to see to know it was there. His…sharp thingy bounced off my weapon, and he did a quick backhand. I parried and kicked at his shins. He stepped back, and sliced at my leg. I did a quick somersault over his unidentifiable sharp object, and swiped at his legs. He leapt over the blade and did a hard overhead swipe. I rolled to the side, springing to my feet. He used his other hand to nick me with a knife, but I quickly retaliated with a hard blow to his hand. He thrust with his swordish thing, I knocked it aside, and threw the boomerang. It missed his head as he ducked to the side. I parried another blow, and caught the returning boomerang.
It had taken me ages to master the boomerang. Do you know how hard it is to throw one in real life? Try mastering throwing one in-game! All the physics did apply in there, though, so it was merely a matter of the correct flick of the wrist. Oh, yeah, and remembering to catch it on the return.
It was slashes and parries, slices and ducks, weapon-switches and witty dialogue for a solid five minutes. I kept at it with the boomerang, changing my main weapon to keep pace with his switches, but maintaining the sharpened wooden crescent.
benboy755: Okay, that’s it kid. I’m bringing out the big guns.
And with that he drew out a totally uninspiring tree branch and proceeded to beat at me with it.
