May 28, 2002 | The Header Goes Here...No, Not There, Here!
UPDATES MADE - LoZ Related Articles >> The Beta Zelda Files *"The Four Swords" Screenshots Added ~ The Legends of Zelda >> LoZ: A Link to the Past >> The Walkthrough *Reformated

CURRENT NEWS - Yep, two awaited things. I've had the walkthrough done since before E3, I just never got the time to upload it. So, don't worry, it's up now. I hope it runs a little bit better. It was beginning to lag even on my computer and, next to Starfe, I've got one of the faster computers (::mutters:: so what Starfe's is faster than mine, makes no difference....napalm can easily take care of that >:]). ~ "The Four Swords" Information is coming up in the news section.

COMMENTARY - Sunday's my birthday!! Oh, did I already say that. ::Shrugs:: Well, it is. ::Dances around:: And then I might get a playstation. At least, that's what Mike keeps saying. :| If he lets me down I'm going to be a little annoyed. I don't mind someone saying they 'might', but when he keeps saying it like this and keeping me waiting I'll be HIGHLY annoyed if he doesn't. *Sigh* Though, knowing my luck, he won't.


May 26, 2002 | My Sister's Birthday Party Starts Very Soon
UPDATES MADE - LoZ Related Articles >> Zelda Secrets and Oddities *Three Oddities Added: "Additional 'Ice Bug' Info," "Heart Piece Headache," and "Maku Tree Mystery." ~ For MCLoZ Viewers >> The Zelda Fan-Art Gallery *New Fan-Art by Vile Scar Added ~ MCLoZ WebSite Stuff >> Meet the Staff of MCLoZ *Doh's and Vile Scar's profile edited ~ Affiliates and Stuff *GameCube 128 Added

CURRENT NEWS - That's the last of the *demanded* stuff and please make sure to visit our new affiliate (also one of Doh's). I'll have more later, perhaps after the b-day party.

COMMENTARY - That reminds me... ^_^ Next Sunday is MY birthday. 18!! WOOOOPIE!! :( That means, though, I've got to get a job. *Sigh* No more living off my parents. I've got to help out a lot now. Also, while I'm on this subject, MCLoZ stands the chance of being open for three more years. Since my family's only got that amount of time left in the Navy, I just thought I would stick around with them and get a job and build up the much needed cash (and hopefully get my first novel done). And going off on another branch - Coming about July is our move back down to Georgia (uggg :P) and... well, since our pay is going to be shakey the internet is going to be the last thing turned on. So...we'll see what happens there. I might be taken a few months extended vacation in that time. Don't worry, it WON'T be permanent. I'll pay the dratted bill myself if I have to!! Ok, Tata!


May 25, 2002 | I'm Not Finished Yet, But Here's What Is And Will Be Done
UPDATES MADE - LoZ Related Articles >> The Beta Zelda Files *Edited With Link to Page 2 / *Page 2 Added With 10 ZGC Pictures! ~ Affiliates and Stuff >> Brother Sites *Zelda Quest Taken Off :( ~ Things Not Done Yet But Will Be: New Zelda Poll, Announcements Change, and Above News Image Info Edited

CURRENT NEWS - I didn't feel like waiting until I was done. Just keep checking up on the stuff to see if it is changed yet. If you are reading this past 3:00 Pacific time....(I am Pacific right? Uggg, I never did get this Time Zone thing, it is SOO annoying)... then chances are it's already done! ~ Like Starfe's quick 15 minute image. I think I might start a habit of making him do this. It will keep his skills honed anyway and it didn't come out half bad. Well...maybe not... I don't know, I'll think on it. ::Shrugs:: Maybe for only the big and important articles. ~ I'll now be keeping an eye out for any extra ZGC images I come across but mostly I'll now focus on the other game, just so I can make sure I am covering both. ~ To those who are waiting for images and oddities and other edits, sorry, ^_^ I'll get it done ASAP. It's in my e-mail box all neatly tucked under "Important Mail". ((Yeah...I do have that. I have one titled Received Messages, too, so that way I know what is side stuff and what is important and then after I trash it....well, I trash it in the Important box anyway, I still have to work on that habit for Received Messages -!! 53 messages- but what did you expect, as forgetful as I am. Yeah... you got me there, too. If I could only remember to check both boxes now ^_^))

COMMENTARY - Sun burns and asthma attacks...not good. The Senior trip was FUN!! food all day, ice cream truck, an arcade, swimming, boating (paddle boats, cannoes, row boats), sport games, horse back riding, and other competitive activities...ALL FREE!! Well, except the horses which cost $20 for 1 hour of riding, we were sorta miffed about that. However, the place is as hilly as any of the rest of Connecticut, and with my asthma.... I've had to take two nebulizer treatments already and will probably have to take one more by the end of today. Not to mention a slight sunburn on my face ((I forgot to put sun tan lotion on my face....SHUT UP!!)). BUT IT'S ALL A SMALL PRICE FOR THE GREAT TIME I HAD!! MWHAHAHAHAHAHAA!! SENIORS RULE!!! ::Mutters:: Except the one episode where my friends decided to leave me behind >:[ that was NOT nice. Well, it was just two of them, the other two didn't mean it. They were out boating which had been agreed on. Rachel and Erin are, needless to say, on my hit list at the moment. :\ And as for my other 10 friends, they just STAYED at the pool. Sure that's nice and all, but give me a break! Ok, I'm done ranting. See yas all later, Tata!!


May 24, 2002 | Let's Get This Show On The Road!! NEWS GALORE!
UPDATES MADE - LoZ Related Articles >> News in the Realm of Zelda *1 Articles Added

CURRENT NEWS - All that is mentioned within my article and more coming tomorrow! ~ One note: Zelda Quest has, saddly, decided to close down, and this time perhaps for good. Farewell Jazz, though I hope you will consider making your Animal Crossing site an affiliate with mine, if not a Brother Site.

COMMENTARY - I've got my work cut out for me tomorrow. *Sigh* And then there's the anime section that has been falling into disrepair. Ugggg....


May 21, 2002 | WAAAAAAH, I HATE SCHOOL!!! *Sniff* *Sniff*
UPDATES MADE - LoZ Related Articles >> News in the Realm of Zelda *2 Articles Added

CURRENT NEWS - Awesome looking movie!!

COMMENTARY - Sorry guys. I WON'T be on tomorrow because I must do my English Portfolio, and I WON'T be on Thursday because of the Senior Fieldtrip to a lovely hotel resort where us Seniors get to hang out, ride horses, swim, and just have a BLAST, from the moment we arrive at school to roughly 6:30 P.M.. SHNITE!! I hadn't anticipated this, and I really never meant for it to happen. I had so been looking forward to covering the big E3 event along with the topsites, but my life intervenes, and I'm NOT going to ignore my real life. ::Shrugs:: So, I guess I'll be back with a HUGE ... not so new... update on everything. ((Damn it!! :S Excuse me.))


May 18, 2002 | On the Way: More Changes and Another Absense
UPDATES MADE - None

CURRENT NEWS - Ok, I've run into a few problems with the Z3 walkthrough. IT'S TOO BIG! So, guess what... I've thought up a hopefully decent design and will be trying to get the walkthrough put into that design. What does this mean? Since all my time is going to be devoted to that, and I don't know how often I'm going to be able to get to the computer, I might be taking another prolonged absense from updates. Don't worry, I'll still be working diligently, and the Zelda News section (if anything comes up) will be worked on as needed, I promise. Believe me, I'm well aware of the big E3 even on its way, and if Doh isn't going to help me out, I promise I will be covering it as best I can. Hopefully it won't take me THAT long to finish this. If I get enough time in it should be up by tomorrow (perhaps tonight, though a big doubt), but...it all rests on my parents and how much my sisters help me out by being good ((I watch my li'l sister every Sat. night when my parents go out for dinner)). So, fingers crossed. And let's hope this design works out or it might take longer.

COMMENTARY - Last night's header that I didn't get to comment: I downloaded Lemmings on the 16th (the original for SNES). I heard tell that, even though the graphics and sound were pretty crappy, it was an excellent puzzle solving game. I have played it once when I was a little kid so I had a general idea. ...EVIL!! ^_^ But very fun. If I can beat the silly thing I'm going to download any other "Lemmings" games I can find. Once again another classic game that far outbeats most up to date games today. ...Wario's Woods is another that's good. I've got that in cartridge form and I STILL haven't managed to beat it. Terribly fun, though. (I wouldn't advise trying to play THAT game on the keyboard, though, since you need the use of all buttons.) Ok, I'm going now. Tata. ((Don't worry, Lemmings will not effect my website duties whatsoever....ok, well, not too much ^_^))


May 17, 2002 | The Original "Lemmings" Is An Evil Game
UPDATES MADE - For MCLoZ Viewers >> The Zelda Fan-Art Gallery *New Pictures by Tara Cobi Added and Section Redesigned (again) ~ *New Affiliate Added: Zelda Vortex

CURRENT NEWS - I opened up the Fan-Art Gallery once again to go in and add Tara's work when I noticed.....GOD THAT LOOKED BAD. So, I gave up and pulled out all the stops. I hope you like the new revamp. There are still a few bugs to work out but they'll be squashed in no time! And, of course, there is Tara's work that was sent in to many more of the popular sites - and they are FABULOUS... though pushing the borders of the "E" rating, but very well done. ~ Ahh, yes, it's about time for a new affiliates, huh? ^_^ Please welcome Zelda Vortex to our growing list of affiliates that, I hope, will only grow even more!

COMMENTARY - Ack! Mum wants on.... right in the middle of an update!! Gotta hurry. I didn't even get to comment on the heading... *sigh* Tata!


May 14, 2002 | Mail Overflow!! ::Screams and Runs For the Hills::
UPDATES MADE - LoZ Related Articles >> The Beta Zelda Files *Update to Picture #7 of LoZ: OoT ~ LoZ Related Articles >> News in the Realm of Zelda *2 Articles By Doh Added ~ Video/PC Game Reviews >> Sega Dreamcast System *Shenmue and Soldier of Fortune Added

CURRENT NEWS - Well, with Vampiric Crow's opening to the Dreamcast section, Vile Scar learned that he too could open new systems if he wanted, but mostly was intrigued that he could do his own Dreamcast games and has done Shenmue for us - which I have heard is a really fantastic game from more people than just him. Go check out their new VG Reviews ~ Next, Doh makes a comeback to his job ::Glares at him and then smiles:: and has posted 2 new Z. Articles that I was about to cover before I found them in my mailbox this morning. Plus while he was at it, he gave me some information to picture #7 under Ocarina of Time for The Beta Zelda Files (I have gotten a lot of good compliments for that section) - seems that room was actually intended to be the Temple of Time. ~ Alright, the following I have on my list to do, if it's not mentioned, I didn't get your e-mail: Update Vile Scar's comments in the Staff Section, add 10 picture to the Zelda Fan-Art section ::mutters::, and I have 2 Zelda Oddities by Darian which one I have to prove before I put up. I will get them both up when that is done. Ok!

COMMENTARY - ::Breaks her pencil in half:: Tara Cobi, I thank you for the delight in sending me your Z-Fan Art Pictures, and I will do my best to work dilligently to get them all up. However, next time you send me another batch of pictures, would you be so very very kind as to send them to me ZIPPED!! Not on at a time. Uggg... I get up this morning, check my mail, and with those 10 e-mails sent to me I have 22 new e-mail messages to read. Not your fault, Tobi, :) Just bad timing on your part what with my new Beta Zelda section and all, hahahahaha. ....I'm going to update the Zelda Fan-Art section with a new rule.


May 13, 2002 | We'll Just Keep This Update A Secret, Won't We?
UPDATES MADE - LoZ Related Articles >> The Beta Zelda Files *Finally Completed!

CURRENT NEWS - I've fallen behind a little in my work, as well as answering e-mails. Ooops... sorry. However, I was still working dilligently on this fabulous new article. ^_^ Please be sure to visit the Beta Zelda Files and note that I am NOT completed with this at all. First, I will be adding any future images to appear for GameCube Zelda. Second, I'm looking for any pictures that can be found on the Beta Oracle Series. That one's going to be tough, but that section will be coming if I can find what I need.

COMMENTARY - I have a bad ear ache so I'm home from school. ::Mutters:: Ok, well, I could have put up with it during school if I really wanted to, but, we get 12 full days off and I've only used 5/6, this being my 6/7! I needed a break. So...let's just keep this little secret to ourselfs that MagicFox was on-line :)


May 10, 2002 | Are All Video Game Players Demented In Some Way?
UPDATES MADE - *Bar Colors Added to Site ~ New Staff Member: Vampiric Crow! *Staff Page and Navigation Bar Update Accordingly ~ LoZ Related Articles >> Zelda Secrets and Oddities *New Oddity Added to Oracle of Ages and Link's Awakening

CURRENT NEWS - Please welcome Vampiric Crow to MCLoZ!! Currently he is a Games/PC Reviewer, but he may be trying for another position as well. His first Game Review will be up shortly ~ Darian (an old friend of mine) Submitted a new Oddity to my collection which reminded me of one in LA that I posted up. ~ Pretty new bar colors. I had put them up on the Midi Player and by the time I had decided to put them on every page, it was sorta too late, but I've finally figured out a way to put them up. ::Hits herself with her FLCL Rickenbacker:: Needless to say it was pathetically simple.

COMMENTARY - Oi, now maybe I can finally start writing the next article. I haven't even gotten to start on it yet for updating this or that. Sheehs. And what is it with Video Game Players? What's with the morbidness?!! Starfe the "Deathwind", "Vile Scar", "Skull"rama, "Doh" (wasn't this something like Demon of H*? Or am I reme-mbering wrong, Doh?), "Fire" Link. ...DOES ANYONE ELSE NOTICE THE STRANGE-NESS??!! Ok, even "Magic"Fox has a little bit of it in there, but it's not morbid! Or maybe it's a guy thing. *Sigh* I'm still an only girl.


May 9, 2002 | What? I Can't Be Gone A Few Days? I'm Still Working!!
UPDATES MADE - Navigation Links *Rearranged with New Section Added ~ LoZ Related Articles >> Zelda Secrets and Oddities *New Oddity Added to Oracle of Ages

CURRENT NEWS - I took the "Welcome Travelor" bit down because ... it just looks TACKEY! But don't worry, I'm cooking something up >:] ~ The Navigation Bar has been rearranged yet again. If you can't locate the Zelda comics they were just placed BENEATH the game titles. Also, please note the new section. LoZ Related Articles. "What is that MagicFox?" Well, I noticed a great idea some sites had. They had a "paper". I'm going to steal that idea somewhat. In this section will be placed articles I write up (or ANY of my Staff who wishes to - NO! No open positions to soley write these things up). I've got a few things coming. Umm, please note, it says "related", so it might not always be soley on the Zelda games. ;) I love my good ideas. I'm so good at them. ~ Please, let's give a round of applause to the first brave sole and loyal fan to MCLoZ who submitted something!! Andy is the first person to have his Oddity posted up in my new section. And a VERY interesting Oddity it is. ACK!! I MISSED IT! Something so simple... ::mutters:: I'm going to go play around with this one a little more... you never know. Please, everyone, if you have an Oddity, don't be afraid to send it to me. Also, I edited Andy's, but if you don't want it edited just tell me. If Andy says he wants his up there as it was written, that's what I will do. No problem.

COMMENTARY - I don't have time for commentary! I have work to get to! ...Ok, maybe one... and this is solely for Starfe and I honestly want to tell you all YOU DON'T WANT TO KNOW. Starfe...Scientists ^_^ ... You know I'm going to torture you to the end of your days with this one, hehehehehehee.


May 7, 2002 | I Have Not Been Taking A Break. Hefty Projects Is All!
UPDATES MADE - *New Affiliate Zelda Domain Added ~ For MCLoZ Viewers >> Links To Related Fan Sites *Brett Nintendo Fanart Galleries added ~ The Legends of Zelda >> Zelda Secrets and Oddities *New Section Added

CURRENT NEWS - First I'm sorry to Zelda Domain for not mentioning him earlier. He's been on the list since Sunday I believe. Really, I'm sorry ZD!! Ok, moving on, the most important thing added is the Zelda Oddities. I've been working for these past does on that section. It's throroughly explained in the section but to get you there - all of the interesting aspects to the Zelda games (tips or just simple observations) are going to be posted there. Not too bad, huh? I've got a whole list of things for Zeldas 3-6 already. I haven't touched Zelda 1, 2, 7, or 8. Time for you viewers to get busy and send the stuff in to me! The gears in my mind are slowly turning, so expect a few things more coming along soon. Warning: There's a new section coming along and since nobody is volunteering for the RPG Walkthrough stuff... it's about to be kicked and replaced by something I don't even have to put in a poll to know that you guys will enjoy it. ~ Ummm...ever since I rewrote the Castle History, I've been feeling guilty... I've had it up on my site since June 19, 200 (the opening of MCAWS) and well...it's been pretty much a permanent part of MCLoZ since that. I have placed the MCLoZ saying back on the site above these updates (duh!)

COMMENTARY - Yeah, now I suppose I better rush away and get back to adding more material. Bunch of slave drivers.


May 4, 2002 | SATs...My Brain Is Still Fried...Ugggg....Tylenol!!
UPDATES MADE - MCLoZ WebSite Stuff >> The Castle's History *Edited ~ The Legends of Zelda >> LoZ: A Link to the Past >> Walkthrough *Monsters put in ~ Affiliates and Stuff >> Affiliates List *Affiliate requirement page edited with Brother Site Info ~ Affiliates and Stuff *Zelda Quest added as Brother Site

CURRENT NEWS - Most of this I did up yesterday, but then I got kicked off the computer and my Mom decided to be a computer hog and I went to bed early ... not early enough. Anyways, the most important thing up there is Zelda Quest has been added in the new category of Brother Site. Visit my good friend Jazz's site!! ^_^ It's worth it. ~ I use to post up a lot of good news about my affiliates' sites, and I think I should get back to that... as well as checking up on them again. I will be going through my list again and keeping track of my affiliates and making sure they are doing what they need to. So, let's start off appropriately! The Zelda Vault, another of my really fave sites, is getting hacked really bad just recently. They are now currently off-line but I'm sure Will is working his butt off to get it back up. Let's hope it gets back up there soon. UberNintendo, the site of previous Staff Member Moiph, has decided to temporarily close down for a little maintenance and some issues of staff. They should be back within the month, though, just in time to celebrate E3 along with the rest of us.

COMMENTARY - SATs... not too incredibly hard, but you try sitting there wracking your brain from 8 to 12. God, I went to bed at 9 and I was still dog tired. If my score comes back and it's horrible I will definitely retake! The test really isn't that hard at all. My mind was just losing it because it was so tired. I came home and fell right to sleep for two hours. *Sigh* I can't win. ::Crosses fingers:: Let's just hope that I DON'T have to retake it.


May 2, 2002 | Just About Bedtime...School At Normal Time Again...Darn!
UPDATES MADE - For MCLoZ Viewers >> News in the Zelda Realm *New Article Added

CURRENT NEWS - News on the All-Stars Zelda and then more importantly Cel-da. >:] And this time I'm on top of the news, hehehehehee

COMMENTARY - I'll try to be on later to finish something up, but whether it gets up tonight or not is another story. Until next time, Tata! (<--- some great things never die... unlike others *Cel-da*)


Part 2: 5/1/02 | What A Wonderful Way To Start A New Month
UPDATES MADE - MCLoZ WebSite Stuff >> Past Updates Archives *April 2002 Added ~ Previous Update and News Logs For The Current Month *Cleared ~ Japanese Anime-tion >> Cartoon: Gundam Wing >> Mecha Information *Mercurius and Vayeate, and Wing Zero Added

CURRENT NEWS - Alright, the normal new month routine. I put all the past updates into a new archive and added a few Gundam Wing mecha things. You will find that I put Mercurius and Vayeate together on the same page. Yep, easy enough. Ok! Good show then!

COMMENTARY - Yep, always a good new start to the beginning of a month... and then once again I screw up as school gets in the way and I can't put up half as much as I would like. Nah, that's ok. Better than me doing nothing, yes ^_^? ....Crud, this month is May, right? :P My sister's birthday comes...! Three weeks from now. I've got no money nor any ideas what to get her. What do you get a Gothic dresser who listens to these strange bands known as Kitty and Slip Knot and Rob Zombie, fills her walls with bizarre posters of bands and a few guys she claims are "cute". What can I get her!! ...More black make-up?? Can't go to Spencers since things there cost too much... Time to bribe Mum out of some money. I've got...three dollars?! *Sigh* I wonder if a simple "I love you little sister [bleh!]" will do. Nah, I didn't think so.


May 1, 2002 | Time Before School, But Not Enough Time
UPDATES MADE - MCLoZ WebSite Stuff >> Link to Midnight Castle *Redone ~ The Legends of Zelda >> LoZ: Link's Awakening >> DX Picture Locations *Pictures of Each Photo Added ~ Japanese Anime-tion >> Cartoon: Gundam Wing >> Mecha Information *Tallgeese Added

CURRENT NEWS - I will add more later. I will also make the updates archive for all of the April Updates. I just don't have time enough to do it right now. For those that ask, the Freshmen and Sophomores have to take the CAPT test today so everyone else can come to school at 10:00.. my bus runs at 9:30. ~ Anyways, I will get more mecha up, I promise. ~ So much for Link's Awakening section being finished. Even now I still found something to add to it. Later on I might redo that DX Picture Locations page... as well as with a few other pages that need it in that section. (Gimme a break! Hey, the Seashells page dates back to Version 1.0 of MCLoZ!!)

COMMENTARY - Ummm...commentary...what to say... SCHOOL SUCKS!!! ....Is that enough? Can I go now? Yeah, ok, I know it was just a statement of the obvious truth, but that's my commentary!! It does suck! I hate school! ...^_^ Though I can't wait to write up my essay for Lord of the Flies! It's a very good topic.
