71) Yes
82) Probably 2006 or 2007.
93) I'm not familiar with either, so I can't really speak to them.
104) Technically, but we never did that in story
115) Safety, I think. If you are all in one place, and that place gets destroyed, then you're wiped out. If your enemy has to hit one village at a time, then at least you have time to prepare.

9Thanks a ton.
10(Although what I imagined was more of a team up between the Toa Mata and the Toa Metru; are you saying that by the time they would've met up, the Toa Metru would've already become turaga?)

12Ooh, that's a good response you had to number five.
18 Questions this time:
21.) Toa Hordika Nokama liked being half rahi at first, yet she agreed to get the Visorak venom purged from her body. What were the factors that caused her to choose to be a Toa Metru again?
32.) Who's older: The Great Beings, or that monster woman who invented "the dreaming plague"?
43.) What was "the question" that that green dragon creature in Metru Nui wanted to know "the answer" to? (A thousand pardons for forgetting the creature's name.)
54.) Why exactly was it that Lhikan didn't like to talk about his past?
65.) Do you know the story of Lhikan's past?
76.) What was on the islands at the south of the Matoran Universe that nobody had explored (according to written history).
87.) Why did the Great Beings put the camouflage systems the Mata Nui Robot's design? Was it for the sake of its inhabitants still believing that Mata Nui was a deity, so it wouldn't attract attention from another world's native inhabitants, or both of the reasons, or neither, or those reasons along with others?
98.) If, say, someone used a Kanohi Olmak to open up a portal to the Main LEGO Universe, and Ninjago's Skylor come through it into the Bionicle Universe, would Skylor be able to absorb the elemental powers of th BU's inhabitants who had them? What would happen?
10Thank you so much Greg for answering our questions.
Slip on what? *walks and slips on banana peel* Oh, that. 
Anyways, I hope you have a great time here!

10(Although what I imagined was more of a team up between the Toa Mata and the Toa Metru; are you saying that by the time they would've met up, the Toa Metru would've already become turaga?)
11Yes, as I recall, the Metru become Turaga pretty quickly after they reach Mata Nui. I don't think the Toa Mata would have made it there quite yet.

91) I would think she realized that staying a Hordika is a slippery slope. Eventually, you are going to wear down trying to hold onto your "normal" half and revert to just being a beast. There's no future in that.
102) Probably Annona
113) How it got to Metru Nui in the first place.
124-5) Not stuff we officially determined. We liked dropping in little mysteries that we would solve later. Also, Lhikan wasn't my character (I didn't have any hand in his creation), so I don't know what his creators had in mind for him.
136) Again, set up as something we would explore later.
147) So it wouldn't attract attention from other worlds' inhabitants. The GBs never intended for the Matoran to see Mata Nui as a deity. That was the result of their gaining sapience.
158) No. The elemental powers in the NINJAGO universe are natural. The ones in the BIONICLE universe are a result of their being bio-mechanical in nature, so they are not the same and she wouldn't be able to make use of them.

16Thanks for the answers Greg, especially 8!

22) Couldn't a Makuta use their vaccum power to prevent air from touching their antidermis and dispersing it?
33) There are at least one letter K in most MU names, including the names of all villan groups (Bohrok, Rahkshi, Vahki, Visorak, Piraka, Barraki, Makuta, and Skrall), why is this?
44) The names of almost all species, groups, and objects (Toa, Matoran, Turaga, Rahi, Bohrok, Rahkshi, Makuta, Vahki, Kanoka, Kanohi, Visorak, Hordika, Vortixx, Rhotuka, Piraka, Skakdi, Barraki, Agori, Glatorian, Skrall...) are the same in both singular and plural forms. Why is this?
55) Could three Toa of the same element form a Kaita?
66) How do Toa store their tools? They don't have scabbards or anything, but are often described as using two hands without losing their tools.
71) It's a good question. Part of being a mammal is bearing live young, which MU inhabitants do not do, but they are air-breathers. SM inhabitants are mammals.
82) Yes, if they wanted to do nothing else all day.
93) Simple. All names had to pass the Google test - basically, you were looking for no references or a bare minimum of references on Google to the term. If you add a K or an X to words, you tend to cut down a lot on the number of times it pops up on Google.
104) Simplicity, basically.
115) No
126) They attach them magnetically to their backs.
13Wait, so the inhabitants of Spherus Magna get married and start families?

3Toa of Psionics: severing connection between mind and motor functions, putting a being into a coma or killing them (By making the brain stop the heart or swell the throat and make them suffocate, etc.), decreasing one's intelligence, causing insanity, planting evil opinions, cutting off their connection with their eyes, etc.
4Toa of Gravity: using gravity to destroy delicate internal organs, making an object's gravity the same as a planet's, using gravity to push apart a being's molocules until the molecular bonds break which causes instant disintegration, ripping someone apart with opposing gravitational forces, doing a Nova Blast and creating a black hole, etc.
5Makuta: too many to list.
6The safeguards are other beings whose role is to make sure these beings do not run out of control.
7How can any being in the Bionicle Universe counter the powers of gravity, animation, or psionics, let alone a makuta not holding anything back?

So in short what I'm asking is would you be willing to divulge his name, if not I understand.2Nope.
3Are you saying that you came up with a name and won't tell what it is, or that no one ever came up with the real name for The Shadowed One?
4 Speaking of which: were the Dark Hunters supposed to be the Bionicle Universe's version of the mafia?
1Hey Greg. I have some questions about Hordika... And toa in general...
21. Would a toa hordika always have a rhotuka according to their element, or would it vary as with most entities using rhotuka?
32. Do toa subjected to visorak venom truly lose their elemental powers,(Barring rhotuka) or do they simply lose the mental discipline to use them properly?
4 2a. If toa hordika retain their powers, would a theoretical antidote which only reversed the mental effects of visorak venom let them use those powers in hordika form?
53. We know toa of light can move at lightspeed. Do other toa have abilities related to the properties of their element, yet not directly related to controlling their element? For example a toa of water turning their body watery to let a sword go through them harmlessly?
64. How much control do toa have over the effects of charging an object with elemental energy? Is it purely a preemptive defensive measure or can one, say, make a furnace slowly bleed out fire energy to do furnace things, or make paper that reads and displays the thoughts of whomever holds them?
