Author Topic: When you first bought Blockland  (Read 9941 times)

I found blockland while just randomly surfing the internet.

The first thing i did was start a build that let me walk anywhere in the bed room with out jets but i ran of bricks and thought i wanna finish this and it was worth it taht was a while ago.

Can anyone figure out what year i joined from my BLID 1931?

late 2007?

Found Blockland in 2005 on Skulltag forums, back in the era of RTB 1.043.

Bough Blockland 4 days after its release, but tried the demo first and jetted around bedroom and shot a ball with a gun.

I bought Blockland because v0002 and RTB 1.04 kicked ass.

I think your right about year but I think mid 2007 around July time. All I remember of when is it was summer and I was waiting for my birthday.

1. How you found out about Blockland, what website, etc
Someone on a popular BIONICLE forums known as BZPower created a topic about TBM. Yes, that's how I found out about Blockland.
I tried to do everything in TBM. It was awfully confusing and awful. Everyone was a jackass and refused to help.

So I went to v0002. Plain old vanilla v0002.
I "got married" (lol), made houses with generally nice people, and then one day, someone from RTB joined the server.
He told us of all the cool things like more colors, protection for your own bricks, bricks, and possibilities.

So I got RTB, RTB 1.043 to be exact. Had my share of fun and building. Made friends, made enemies. Etc etc.

Then retail came out.
If you're smart enough/back here way back when, you'd know the community was split into the people who bought retail and the people stayed with the old Blockland and tried to make their own sequel or something. I chose the ones who stuck with old blockland. I don't know why, I just did.

Eventually it fell apart within less than a year, not surprising.
I bought retail on January 1st, 2008, ID 3614. I'm assuming I'm the first of the new year because it was at around 2 AM-ish. It was a boring new years, shush.

2. The first thing you did in the Blockland Demo
I built something that looked almost exactly like the demo house. Literally.
Then a small stable.

3. Why you bought Blockland
I bought it because the "retail rebellion" was NOT working at all. It was like a car that was going down a hill, but then it had to overcome a hill of inactivity and it couldn't get there.
Plus it was TEN times better than whatever we had planned.

I did the exact same thing, except that I found it on google while I was searching for lego games.

I found it out on this video on youtube. At first I typed in Blackland (Lil tribal) Then i discovered it was Blockland. I got the demo and the first thing i built was a castle! I bought it because it looked EPIC.

I was bored with roblox, came across blockland, built a staircase of 2x6 till I hit brick limit.

I bought it because I wanted my staircase to reach heaven and if there is a space part in the map.

I heard about BL from the Lego.com forums, then I found RTB, and discovered how to use it.  After that summer, I informed Jirue about it.  I played actively until 1.0 came.  The first thing I did was spawn a jeep and make a few jumps in the demo.  Jirue ended up giving me the game.  My mom was too paranoid that it was a scam.

1. Attack of the Show, 2005.

2. Download V0002

3. Because I was bored of playing the crashfest known as GMOD.
