Well :( I had a sugar high last

night with all the chocolate and parties with soda. And I have a disorder. My sugar

highs are BAD. I was bouncing off the ceiling (Not literally). Then I just laid on my

bed, and SPLAT, right on top of the station I rolled off my bed. It shattered.

I'm crying now. I'm so sorry.

P.S. I'm just kidding.

November Fools! Gotcha! Nothing happened to it. Happy

Halloween!

Wow, I must say, that was not funny at all. Even if you

would have rolled onto your coaster it would have been your loss. Sorry I just see no

humor in this what so ever

I'm sorry, but look what I have!

The Story of the Serpents

In the days while the earth was still

merely opening her eyes, Poseidon was dozing a dream, a message
from Zeus.

The dream was that Poseidon was to have the key to Pompei. Two serpents were to

guard
Pompei: A serpent which could turn a forest into ash by merely breathing

its fiery breath, and a
serpent that could flood a village by simply spitting saliva

from its massive tongue. Poseidon grew fond of these two beasts. Poseidon put the

serpent of water in the Sea of Naples. And he put the other beast in the great

mountain Vesuvius. Over the years Poseidon became rich and came to own a large

castle on the hillside. But, as he aged, he became
weak. Poseidon knew his

time was short, so he locked the serpent of fire in the great mountain of
Vesuvius, and the serpent that spat water in the Sea of Naples. Poseidon died just

days after this
event. The serpents laid in the depths of their lairs for centuries.

They were aware of the passing of
their owner, and soon grew knowledgable of

the theives stealing valuables from their old masters'
estate. Zeus saw

this, and released the two from their dungeons. Their instruction was to guard the
castle, but only one could have this job. They had to battle each other.....

I'm sorry this has a little religion in it, but it was just for a story. I may modify

it. I will openly say I am a Christian, and I do not want to start up a fight. I just find

Greek mythology fascinating. But yea, that's the story for ELEMENT.

Ditto on all three points.

:)

I think your

story is actually rather creative. I would just change the part about lots of time

passing. That is, I think it would be stronger with a series of simple events happening-

if that makes any sense. But you are certainly on the right track for a story upon

which to base your coaster. B)

I love Greek mythology but I found a fault in your

story. If this is going to have a Greek gods based story, then you should not have God

in the story because Greek mythology is not Christianity. The Greeks had many gods

and godesses. You could change the God in your story to Zeus. Also, I would change

the name of the coaster because ELEMENT doesn't reflect the awesome

storyline of the coaster. The storyline doesn't really connect with the name

either except that two elements are fighting. Element could mean atoms like gold,

oxygen, zinc, etc.

No, the name is fine. The four basic elements from the

past are: Air, Earth, Fire, and Water.

I have a few textures made, but my

printer is being a terd-muffin. When it's fixed though.

Sure, do one with flames and one with waves. Could

you get exact size and could you center it? I have some sticker paper. Thanks.

P.S. Everyone should get AIM for fast communication. It's easy and

doesn't cost a dime.

Yea I am. I don't want anyone to steal records

from me. This will probably be a record for most complex station. When I finish the

station it will be a record and I'll post pics of it.

P.S. If I have nothing

else to do (like when I'm done with the station), I'll build the elements

themselves and perfect them.

I have a topic in the Staff forum. It is about

a......"special" way to do pics. I need permission. But don't ask

what it's about. But, anyways, pics soon. =)

I can't wait to see pics of this coaster. It should

be really interesting to see someone else making a flying coaster.

Does anybody care about this anymore? I've

been thinking about it. I don't have enough sets, so it might just be one long one.

Mostly depending on who cares. Toodles.
