I changed the title of the thread and you'll be included in the vote.

Thanks.

Moar in the conclusion.

The following entries have pictures embedded that are hosted on Brickshelf, which is still down at the moment: Clothes Store by SilentMode Fixed! Winter Sports Spore by soundwave_sw (also hosted flickr, please embed these pictures) Fixed! Christmas by brickie (disqualified, it's a winter scene and not a single Winter Village creation) Chalet by slovakiasteph The Blue Snow Store by gcanik (also hosted on MOCpages, please embed these pictures)) Transparent Winter House by lisqr Fixed! Please upload your pictures elsewhere and embed them in your entry thread as soon as possible. It will be hard to get people to vote for you if they can't actually see your entries. Edit: Brickshelf seems to be back online.

Poll added.

You're just enjoying your gifts of nature too much. But I do agree, the hosts put a lot of work in creating a themed game, so it shouldn't be too much to ask to play your character to a certain extent.

Well, they're called tags (see the EB User Groups and Tags topic). But there is no comprehensive list of tags and what they are given for.

It was announced in the Special Themes forum in September 2011 and there is even a short review of the set already.

If you have to start like that, then it's probably better to not post it. I have edited your post. When you think about it a few more seconds, I'm sure you understand. Next time, please do so before posting.

Search harder. Please continue the discussion there. Thanks.

You wrote right, write, and wrote right, right?

Happy birthday!

Per the site guidelines, please don't deeplink images larger than 800 x 600 pixels. You'll have to resize them before deeplinking them here. I have removed the image in the post above. Also, please add the pictures to your first post, by using the 'Edit' button at the bottom of your first post.

Please edit your first post and add pictures of your creation (we'll then see whether it can stay in Town or has to be moved) or this thread will have to be locked eventually. Thanks. Thanks for providing the link to the tutorials (also see the links in my signature).

Thanks. And you two are doing a great job hosting. Very impressive. You know I'll keep following the game...

I think VBBN doesn't mean just one (1) corner building so far, but that we recently ('just') got a corner building (the Grand Emporium).

Seems so. Please continue the discussion there. For more related topics see here.

Got them too. Thanks again Mike!

Fine. Vote: Father Thomas “Tomato” Thomson (Ricecracker) I'm ok with voting off a non-contributor. I hope we can finally agree on someone though.

Considering this... perhaps predictable claim... I agree we have to look at alternatives.

Because it stood out to me. And it was just one comment that I responded to. You just didn't respond to me. No, you wait with speaking up again until the choice seems to become either Patrick or Roger. It seemed to me like you were trying to steer any investigative actions. I honestly don't see why, just by being "out there", either Attabar or Patrick happen to be great assets to our cause, as you put it. One of them could be a cultist, but could get "cleared" tonight because they appear innocent or because investigation results simply can't always be trusted. If we would put too much reliance on such a result we could easily be led astray for a number of days. I was just trying to warn against this and was merely asking why you'd make the suggestion at that point to investigate either Attabar or Patrick and why they in particular are such great assets. But if you don't want to explain yourself... you have the right not to answer, of course. I'm still undecided. I'm wondering whether a cultist would really go this far on the first day and try to confuse us all. It would seem like a stupid thing to do, but... it could be a way to appear 'towniest of town'.

Ah, now that it's time to save Patrick Fitzwilliam's big behind you're back again. Yet, when you're asked questions yourself you're surprisingly quiet...
