Does someone there just run the proposed names through Google, and check for any possible meaning in other languages? And if both searches turn up negative, they give the story teams the go-ahead to use said names?
2Also, I understand if the higher-ups at TLG wouldn't want to give you any more lists of approved names to use on old BIONICLE because right now they want to focus on Gen2, but it'd be awesome if you got hold of a couple names to give to old unnamed characters and such. Maybe names ending with -rahk to give to the Rahkshi types which don't have names so far. Or different names entirely to give to Toa Cordak/Mangai members!
3I'm probably asking a bit too much here, but I'm one of those fans who grew up in that universe, and still holds a deep fondness for it many years later. I want to thank you again for being here with us today and treating us to new little tidbits of story in the ways that you can.
41) Words that go through legal have to go through not only a foreign language search, but also a trademark search to make sure the word is not already owned by someone else. I used to do a Google search before submitting a word for for approval, but the actual legal check is much more exhaustive.
52) Not going to happen. Someone has to pay for Legal to do those checks and there is no budget to do that for old BIONICLE.

2The GBs built the baterra and Velika would have been in communication with him, so I can't see why this would not be possible.
1I have a few questions to ask about Atakus and Velika, if you don't mind.
21. How and when did Atakus come to work for Velika?
32. What's the full story with Atakus' blades? Did Atakus find them, or did someone else find them and later give them to Atakus? Were they found in a baterra weapons cache (as the Skrall believed), or a Great Being cache, or something else? Did Velika plant them there, did he know about them, or did he only hear about them when Atakus reported them?
43. Does Velika have any special plans for the Skrall? Does he see them as potential allies or enemies?
54. The baterra were never shut off by their failsafe, but after the Shattering, a period of 100,000 years passed in which they did not appear to do anything of note. Is Velika perhaps the reason that they suddenly wiped out the Skrall's northern empire? Were they serving his ends?
1Hey Greg:
21) Do the Glatorian who were granted elemental powers have limited elemental reserves like the Toa? Also, are they able to manipulate their elements as well as a Toa would?
32) Are Kestora biomechanical, and are they made of protodermis?
43) What made the GBs decide to construct the MU out of protodermis? Maybe it had something to do with the special qualities which protodermis possesses?
54) Do you think Fa-Matoran would accel at being traders, navigators, and sailors because they have a better sense of direction than the other matoran?
65) Will Rahi go extinct now that there are no makuta left to make them, or will that be Alternate Teridax's job in addition to guiding the new SM society?
76a) Although MU inhabitants are unable to feel romanitc feelings, do you think they could understand the whole concept behind it?
86b) This may sound like one of my earlier posts, but I promise its a bit different: is the AI of MU inhabitants capable of simulating all emotions except romanitc love, or would there be other emotions that the MU inhabitants can't experience/understand.
1Dear Greg,
2I'm curious, we know the Toa Mangai consisted of 11 Toa. Two of which are currently unknown.
3Since we already know that there was at least one Toa from each of the primary elements (Fire - Lhikan, Air - Nidhiki, Tuyet & Naho - Water, an unnamed Toa of stone, and four unnamed Toa of Ice), was there also a Toa of Earth?
4Thanks for your time!

3Looking over BS01 again, the wording was "believed to be" a baterra weapons cache. Also, his blades were stated to be made of technology alien to Spherus Magna... Explain. Aliens!?

2 I don't know if this is too personal a question, but since you are a comic book fan, I figure I would ask it: have you ever had any interest in writing for DC or Marvel? I know you wrote for the BIONICLE comics, and I didn't know if that ever interested you. Thanks so much.
3It has and it does, but it is really, really hard to break into writing comics. Comic companies are way more focused on recruiting new artists than new writers. They will often have one writer who is writing three or four books or more, so they don't need as many writers.

5I don't really buy a lot of sets anymore. I have very little free time to build and no room to display them.
