Not sure which word though, there are several on my mind right now...

I say if you have the skills and the time, go for it! I'd also expect to see full documentation in the KB forums!

Just watched the latest two eps and I've got to agree. Quite enjoying the show so far, and I'm an old git!
Yeah, it has got some faults and v childish moments, but considering the target audience age it's def worth watching.
Only caught a few odd episodes of any series since G1 and it def seems the best I've seen. The AEC programs were shite in my opinion and I think I prefer Animated's Dinobot origin over G1!
Overall then quite impressed.
Here's a link to a thread which is updated each week with the latest episode's torrent. Usually up about an hour after it's shown.

Nothing new. I actually really like Bugbite. He looks so good in white plastic. But other than that, nothing qualifies as news from me
I think I'll go have a browse...

I can't stress enough how damn cool animated is. The fact that a scheming Megatron has dominated the last two episodes, and this is the start of the series, I can't wait till things start gathering speed.
Transformer Animated for four seasons! With Unicron! And allsorts of cool stuff!

I do recall you mentioning the interviews. I know you mentioned Sheffield, but where else did you apply?
I agree that animated is incredibly cool, but not sure about the Unicron part.

I actually think animated is so good that, as long as it doesn't devolve into another crappy kid cartoon, it could really do the original G1 some justice. Not like AEC or RiD or any of those other silly series.

i've actually bought quite a few TFs from BBTS, including G1 Punch/CounterPunch, and they are bloody reliable, normally takes 9-12 days for stuff to ship from them, but i always got what i ordered!

And damn do I want that Encore OS now. I'll have to save up some moolah! On that note, how much is shipping to the UK from BBTS usually? I'd love to know as that could open many doors indeed!
Yeah, I'm not surprised about the uni thing. It's rathet random when they get back to people. All I can think of is a master in-pile, just like in the centre of beurocracy in Futurama
I'm just trying to find out if I can get a lift off my parents to that party on Saturday. They're fine taking me, but apparently 2 am is too late (early) to be picked up. Time to get my silver tongue out then!
Oh no, maths exam tomorrow afternoon. I meant to revise for it all day, but during the morn some mates said they were off to play CoD 4, so I joined them...
I feel slightly confident. As long as exponential logarithms don't feature heavily, and they're not too keen on trig function manipulation, I should be fine.
I'm screwed

BBTS shipping is easy to work out,
Start with what you'd roughly expect it to be, double it and then add $10.
Cheers,

You're just lucky my knee-capping stick is in the shop for a polish!
It didn't go too badly. MPC3 is a hard paper- especially this January- but I have hopes that I did well. As long as I didn't use the completely wrong numbers, I should be fine.
Huh, shipping from BBTS doesn't sound too terrible. What was the $30 shipping on pray tell? If that's for a deluxe item, then it's extortion.
HBW- You're just a negative nelly
