User blog:MAZEKA/1 year anniversary blog

Intro thingy
Huh, sure feels like its been longer than just a single year, but that's how long I've been here, and what a year it was. Despite only having been here for 1 year, I can't remember what I used to do with my time before coming here and I can't really imagine life without this great society.

Over this last year I've started several stories (and actually finished a few of them), joined a club, entered several competitions with varying levels of success, and me some truly wonderful people. Right from the start users such as Rando and Bob were getting in touch to help me improve my pages and stories. Others, like Vorred, also helped me out, with Vorred giving me some much needed advice on comic making. And A contest run by ReddKuta helped me discover new ways of MOCing, and while none of the winning entries have been used by him for anything yet, I probably wouldn't be at my current level if I hadn't become involved in this.

There are many others who have helped me too, more than I can remember right now, but I'd like to say thank you to everyone who's helped me feel at home here. People who should be accepting this thank you are as (in no particular order) follows:


 * ReddKuta - a great friend and talented user.
 * Rando07 - a great guy who's helped me out many times and always nice to talk to.
 * BobTheDoctor27 - a brilliant MOCer and Writer, and a nice person.
 * Pitcat - a user who I've only recently come to now, but he's a great guy and MOCer.
 * Invader39 - A great writer, MOCer and stop-motion-er, and a really nice guy.
 * Chalk33 - King of Epik and a great guy.
 * Vorred - an excellent comic maker, and a really nice guy. It's a shame that he's now left the wiki.
 * ToaTusk - a great guy, always fun to talk to. Shame to see him go too.
 * LoganWoerner - a nice guy and great writer, who's also left.
 * Ganno - a really nice guy once you get to know him, and he has some very interesting ideas.
 * ChineaseLegolas - a great MOCer, and a great writer, even if his stories aren't the most canon of sorts.
 * Maccy - A nice guy who's always fun to talk to in chat.
 * Max the paranoid android - a really nice guy and great MOCer, also a great friend.
 * Gwideon - a nice guy and good friend.
 * FireDrag - a great writer and really nice guy.
 * Windfall the wanderer - a relatively new user and excellent MOCer.
 * User:Artek206|Artek the formerly crazy one]] - a nice guy and great writer.
 * More or less every other active user, apologies if your name has slipped my mind for the time being :P

MOCs
And now, since I'm terrible at remembering stuff to say when it comes to writing it down, I'll stop speaking now and move on to my longest MOC blog... ever! And I'll start of with some gifts to various users, if you do not see a MOC of yours here, then I either was unable to make one due to parts requirements, or I have yet to build it, as I have a few more yet to come.

Ansameli
Well I thought it fitting that I start with a MOC from one of the newer members of the community, who has already filled the wiki with many amazing MOCs.

Enkang
Next up is a MOC I built of one of Redd's characters, who currently doesn't have a MOC.

Tayluu
Now a MOC for Artek.

Niha
Niha's certainly a unique character, and one of my favorites on the wiki.

Tsukumi
This sure is one complex MOC, but not as complex as I thought it would be.

Vulf
While the original MOC wasn't made by Firedrag, I couldn't think of (or make) a more fitting character of his.

Collab MOCs
Well, for a while now me and Nez have been planning a collab story, but I've yet to do much in the means of MOCing for this story, so here are a few MOCs we may consider using in the story.

Steltian's Game
Now this is a fight-to-the-death style story I've had planned for quite a while, which I'll go into more detail on in a future blog. Basically, this would involve many characters, mainly those of other users, fighting to the death on what was the island of Xia, after being captured by 'The Steltian' - a wealthy Steltian who decided to put on some top quality entertainment for his fellow Steltians. This story will be a part of the Dark War storyline.
