When did Makuta think up the Plan? It changed over time didn't it? What was it first going to be, and when did it change to what it was in the end?
Makuta basically ran a lot of different plans at once. I think the plan he finally ended up executing really came into full flower at the end of 2003 storyline, when his efforts to control when the Matoran would return to Metru Nui failed.
Aaah.. Because previously he was planning on keeping them away for so long that mata nui would die.
One more thing; Does the mask of charisma work on Rahi? Do you have to be able to communicate with the target for it to work?
Also, don't forget that Makuta wanted to keep the Matoran in a comma until they forgot everything, and reveal himself as their "Great Spirit".
Do not attack Mr. Farshtey like that. He migt've loved BIONICLE more than anyone here. LEGO stopped BIONICLE because profits were decreasing. They had plans for two more movies, in fact.

No, remember, if Mata Nui died without Makuta being in a position to take over, Makuta gained nothing from it. He was going to need Metru Nui functioning when Mata Nui died, otherwise he would be taking over a robot that was effectively brain dead.
Well, first off, I didn't cancel it, LEGO Company did. And my guess is the reason for that was that set sales had been steadily declining for a while and it was thought better to end it while it was still selling somewhat successfully, rather than wait for it to die. The former gives you the option to bring it back someday, if you wish, the latter really does not.

No, I don't think it was intended to work on Rahi
Hmm.. Then why was he trying to stop them from returning? Why where the TURAGA trying to stop them from returning (wih their cover stories about makuta and mata nui etc.)?
GT? Could you read my story? "A Survivor a Verpine's Story.."
I actually don't read fan fiction.
I mean here on the MBs..... Still no?
No, because I write for LEGO, i have always considered it best not to read fan stories so I can't ever be accused of stealing someone else's ideas.
Understandable. I don't mind if people use my ideas, because I feel proud (but I like it better when they tell me!)
Jay Vincent is (maybe) using some of my idea's for the new Ninjago Music.
Well, tey difinitley used a couple of my ideas. I posted a bio and put my dragon name as shard, and three months later; zane's dragon as the name shard. Coincidence? Maybe...
Oh, the Velika theory is REALLY interesting, Firox ... heck, we could talk for days on that one.
I think I would enjoy discussing it for a bit, if you'd like to.
My main idea behind the theory is that Velika would somehow have realized that he could hurt the other GB's plans (or at least forward his own) by giving the Matoran sentience.
Maybe he would have figured that he could use the Matoran much more effectively if they were sentient.
Also, I don't know what the eventual end of his plan is supposed to be, but if it involves him becoming the ruler of the universe, he would probably rather rule over sentient beings, not mindless drones.
And I just realized something... if Velika entered a Matoran body as the MU was being launched, he would have had to feign being a mindless worker for quite some time while analyzing the Matoran, at least until figured out how to give the Matoran sentience (assuming that the theory is correct).
Also - did Velika actually help build the Great Spirit Robot? If he was involved with the creation of the Matoran, he would have had that much more knowledge of their inner workings (and found out what else he needed to know by actually entering a Matoran body).
Yes, he was involved in the building of the robot. And I do think he had an eye on messing up the GB's plan.
I probably shouldn't stretch this out too long, but there is one more question that I have:
How did the robot fit into Velika's plans? Did he want to take it over? If so, how much aware was he of Teridax's plan to take over? Did Velika consider it a setback when the robot was destroyed, or a benefit?
