1I know what the Karda Nui shields are for . 2I sent these over a week ago, and didn't get a reply. Perhaps the server ate them? Also, 4 is new.9. We don't know if mata nui dies during the storms now do we?
31. Does Trinuma actually wear a Kanohi, or is it just a face? If so, is it a Hau (not Nuva), or something else? If something else, have you decided what it is?
42. Is it possible that Trinuma is the same species as Hydraxon? The reason I ask is I noticed a few similarities between him and Hydraxon. First of all, they appear to be a similar height. Also, they have the same shoulders.
53. Related to 2, how similar are members of a species? Would some random Vortixx look identical to Roodaka, or would she have just a slightly different head? Perhaps she would have some variation in the build of her body?
64. I just had a spark of inspiration . Are the ultra-powerful shields of Karda Nui designed to contain the energy storm?
7Thanks for your time, 8~Arzeron
101) He does wear a Kanohi, yes 112) No 123) No idea, not something I have worried about 134) Yes
14Some of the above may be considered spoilers, some aren't. I spoiler'd it all just to be safe.
15Sweet... 16I wonder what would happen if there wore no shields.
17Just quick, all are fried, no more Mata Nui, no more Toa, no more Skakdi, No More Matoran etc. All are fried
18i like mine with kesup
1I couldn't find the part where it says that his hatch was fixed -- anyway, that part appeared in my entry, so maybe you're confusing them. 2In my short story Dume repaired it with his Kiril, since it was just armor, not organic tissue. 3Khote
4Fully recovered and fueled with vengeance, Keetongu opened the recently repaired hatch in his chest that held his Rhotuka launcher and fired a wheel of energy that had the equivalent power of fifteen Visorak attacks back at the group that sent ten of them skidding across the pavement.
5Near the end of the report. So it has been repaired.
1Takahatu, Greg doesn't visit this topic. You have to PM him via the handy dandy link in the first post 
1I bet that the character will be Ahkmou.
1Hello again Greg, just some of my questions.
21)Does helryx mind is shielded? 31a)krakua's?
42)Will bitil and chirox appear in Takanuva's Blog?
53)Who is your favourite matoran for this year?
6Those are my questions for now.
71) Yes and yes 82) I don't know yet 93) Don't have one
10Again, someone should edit BS01.

8Yup, I know. I just forgot to put the answer. I'm a little bit sleepy now.
2Wouldn't it be possible/couldn't they just drop them off and recruit Hydraxon? Or do they figure they need him in the Pit to recapture all those prisoners?
31) Um, the OOMN is going to war, Xander -- that means one is kind of busy
4Curses, no Hydraxon (maybe). At least no R&K in the Pit.
5How long does it take for someone to teleport to The Pit and back? Sure there is a war, but you're not busy ALL the time. Did you explain to Greg why you'd like Roodaka and Karzahni in the Pit, Xander004?

6Greg said that Roodaka and Karzahni belong in the pit.
1But besides the obvious reasons why the belong in the pit, it is kind of bad to have (I am speaking of Roodaka) somebody in the OoMN HQ that, if the BoM attacked, they could set free. (yes, I know just to kill, but better go to the pit and live, than to stay and die)
1ok, so forget I said anything
1Kakuaofsonics: So if you were Roodaka, you would rather spent countless millenia confined in a cell than embracing the mercy of death? And the OoMN doesn't really care whether Roodaka lives or dies.
2NtM
3It isn't important what Roodaka wants - she's the prisoner. It's what is most benificial too the OoMN. Roodaka would be a dangerous criminal risk being set free, and it's obviously better to have Roodaka at hand just in case she is needed again in the future, so the pit is the best solution.
4This is getting a tad off-topic though...
1Hi, 2here are some things I asked GregF:
171) okay... 182) he's very busy these days, isn't he? 193) ohw. 204) well, I thought it would have been nice to know. 215) mmhhh, why can't he answer this one
22LtoF
3Hi GregF, 4I hope you have some spare time to answer these questions:
51) I'm not asking how tall he is, but do you know how tall Mata Nui (being) is?
62) What are you working on right ow?
73) What's your favourite Makuta power?
84) On the map of the Matoran Universe, is Mahri (or what remains of it) also included? (I think not since it's outside of it...)
95) approxematly, how big is the Matoran Universe?
10Thanks for your time, have a nice day further,
11LtoF
121) Yes 132) Multiple things 143) Don't have one 154) No, because Mahri Nuihas been destroyed, so why put it on the map? 165) Can't answer it
171) okay... 182) he's very busy these days, isn't he? 193) ohw. 204) well, I thought it would have been nice to know. 215) mmhhh, why can't he answer this one

1I hope the "familliar character" is Nuhrii, or Takanuva.
2~LN~
3It will NOT be any of the 2004 Matoran sets. Why? It would be like Star Wars moving to a new universe and the only farmiliar charecter is Jar Jar Binks.
4-TN05: Toa of Air
5I agree, besides, GregF said he had plans for Takanuva beyond 2008, and he is a familiar character. So my guess it's Takanuva.
1Or maybe he just doesn't know. The only places on the map are the named ones, there could be hundreds of fiddley little archipelagos beyond it
1I accidently deleted the pm for a question I sent, but I remember most of it.
2Hi, I was wondering what the names for
31. Sidorak's Species
42. Brutaka's species
53. Ehlek's species
6They do not have names because their aren't many names on the namelist
7(I may have gotten this wrong, but I don't know for sure.)

2He would have said "No idea" because he said that a while ago, also when he said he had no idea how tall Mata Nui (being) actually was...now, first one member asks him if he-himself knows how tall Mata Nui is, then another member asked how tall the MU is, and the answers to the first was "yes." the second was "Can't answer this."

3If he knows how big Mata Nui is but not how big the MU is, that's sort of an arguement against Mata Nui being the MU
1######, I thought I solved the mystery.
12Well, as stubborn as I am, I just had to send him this. As he said, he is famous for his evasive semantics, although I don't really believe I am getting somewhere with this:
16Well, let's see what he answers. And then I'll go and update my MU guide.
17NtM
2Okay, I noticed something: 3You always said "there are no other land masses IN the Endless Ocean". And I remembered that "Endless Ocean" was a fan-created term and so the ocean doesn't have to be endless. So what I am asking you is: is the endless ocean confined by any other land masses (just like the Atlantic Ocean is confined by the continents Europe, Africa and America)?
4NtM
5Nuhrii, let me know if you did not receive my answer to this question, BZP was being balky this morning.
6Greg
7I'm afraid I didn't. And it's been having these "server eats PMs" errors for quite some time now. I usually tick "Add a Copy of this message to my sent items folder", then I at least have a copy of it, but I know this is a bad idea if one has to send so many PMs a day like you do - you would have used up your maximum storage space in no time.
8So could you please answer my question again
9NtM
10Glad to.
11Basically, the whole "in the ocean" this is not an example my famous evasive semantics -- there is literally nothing in any story bible that refers to their being any other land mass on the planet other than the island of Mata Nui. So I have no reason to believe that there is any other land.
12Well, as stubborn as I am, I just had to send him this. As he said, he is famous for his evasive semantics, although I don't really believe I am getting somewhere with this:
13Sorry if I am a little persistent, but I have a follow-up
15You probably have guessed why I asked this, I am trying to figure out where the 2009 story could possibly take place - not underground, as we won't be in a domed world, not on another world, as there will be no space travel, apparently also not above-ground. So unless there really are beings with whole universes inside them... no, this can't be either, as there are no domed universes... you really have to have thought of something so extraordinary we can't imagine it or something so simple we don't even consider it. Whatever it is, you guys did a good job
16Well, let's see what he answers. And then I'll go and update my MU guide.
17NtM
1Hello Greg, hope your doing well.
2Now that we know mutran doesn't know about the energy storm.
3How did teridax know about it?
4Cause Teridax took the knowledge he gained from Mutran and extrapolated from it.
5Now there is another question in my mind. Why did teridax doesn't want mutran to know?
6I'll send this question to Greg later.
1I couldn't find the part where it says that his hatch was fixed -- anyway, that part appeared in my entry, so maybe you're confusing them. 2In my short story Dume repaired it with his Kiril, since it was just armor, not organic tissue. 3Khote

5Near the end of the report. So it has been repaired.
6But does Greg know that the hatch is fixed? Someone should PM him.
7EDIT: Some new Q&A's:
81. So, if the Toa Inika could destroy Antidermis with their lightning, could a normal Toa of Lightning do this as well?
92. What would a beam of Gravity from a Toa do?
103. Has it been confirmed that the Kakama that TSO found in BA10 belonged to a Toa Mangai?
114. How do you pronounce Klakk?
12Thanks again Greg .
131) Yes, but how do you reach the antidermis through the Makuta armor? 142) Well, what does gravity do, S? Think about it. It holds things down on to the planet. What happens if you increase it? What happens if you decrease it? 153) Somebody asked me about that, don't remember what I answered 164) Like "pack"
171. So, did the Makuta kill most of the Toa of Lightning just in case? Because it isn't that hard to break open their armor
182. What I meant was, a Toa of Fire could just shoot a ball of fire, not wondering what its temperature is. But what would a Toa of Gravity do with a ball of gravity without wondering what the ball is doing? Would it just distort gravity? Or does the Toa have to know what the ball is going do?
191) No. They went after Toa of Iron and Toa Magnetism, because they have powers that can rip the armor open. 202) You don't really shoot a ball of gravity, that's not how the power works. You pick a target and either increase or decrease that target's personal gravity -- much like the Kal did when they sent that tribe of Bohrok into orbit back in 2003
21~S~
2Now that we know mutran doesn't know about the energy storm.
3How did teridax know about it?
4Cause Teridax took the knowledge he gained from Mutran and extrapolated from it.
5Now there is another question in my mind. Why did teridax doesn't want mutran to know?
6I'll send this question to Greg later.
7Bcause he wants the Makuta to die? 8Why else would he send his 7 best fighters into the UC and NOT tell them about the energy storms

15) approxematly, how big is the Matoran Universe?
25) Can't answer it
35) mmhhh, why can't he answer this one
4LtoF
5Yet another reason why Mata Nui could be the Matoran Universe
6If it's true, I thought about this when Mata Nui wakes up and rises:
7Mata Nui: *Get up from the floor* 8All the beings in the Matoran Universe: *Falls because if Mata Nui is the Matoran Universe, all the islands are, so they fall from them
* 9Hehehe

10May I point out people don't fall off Australia even though its at the bottom of the Earth 11Theory disproved 12therefore all Matoran will not fall over .
13~Shurt
1I PMed GregF, and he said that the final battle will be fast moving .
1Well, apparently I was wrong: Greg had something useful to say after I PMed him the follow-up question. Go here.
2NtM
3That is one awesome find . 4Now when anyone asks him anything about it though it'll be "I can't answer it"
6~Shurt
7I little too much, methinks...
8Drink up, me 'earties, yo ho . 9
1I don't think Greg has any favourite members. As long as everyone treats him with the respect everyone here deserves, he can't like anyone more. And there were times when things were different... in late Sep/early Oct 2004 I asked Greg for some info on the Rahaga, for I wanted to include them in the "Official Encyclopedia of Bionicle Names and Expressions", and he sent me the Rahaga descriptions from an upcoming issue of the LEGO Magazine, one that was still some months away. Back then, the big mystery was where Nuju got his language from, and that was made obvious in the Kualus description. Greg added the sentence "Leave it as it is written", which I didn't understand the way it was meant because four years ago, my English was far from the quality it has today. I posted what I got and promptly received a PM from an irritated Greg asking why I posted it.
2NtM
2NtM
1Huh? I don't get exactly what you said....
2And "The Arbiter54" could you provide a quote...
3If your on about what NtM just said 4He was explaining how even he can get on Gregs bad side
5Also back on topic Greg has said that the Kanohi Olmak can be used to travel to other planets although won't be doing that in the story
6~Shurt
1Ok, even you don't understand it, so maybe I wasn't that bad: "Leave it as it is written" was supposed to mean "Keep it for yourself and don't jump to conclusions", as Greg later told me, and I posted the info because I didn't understand the sentence because back in 2004, my English was still average at best and not good enough to get the meaning of the sentence.

1Is Mata-Nui aware of the destinies he hands out, was he ever aware?
2Good question. I would say he has some knowledge of them, yes
3How much knowledge, for example, did he know...say Jaller and co would become toa?
4How much of extent did he know of Teridax's destiny, along with the other Makuta?
51) Yes. He may not have known the specifics of the when and the how, but he does know which Matoran have the potential to become Toa inside them and which do not. 62) More than you would probably expect.
71.So Mata-Nui preparation to trick Teridax into thinking the matoran of 2004 would become Toa instead of Vakama and co wasn't a just in case, it was more or less, delaying Teridax as long as possible in the Plan?
82.Is Mata-Nui allowed to stop destiny?
93. Does he know his own?
101) It was an effort to prevent Makuta from trying to kill Vakama and his team. 112) Mata Nui could do that for beings in his universe, yes 123) No.
13You guys must seriously love the questions I ask.
