Past Updates: ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 17 December 2005 This is probably the last update until the Fan Fiction Awards on the 8th January, as I'm taking Christmas and New Year's off. You're welcome to submit stuff during this time but it'll probably only get put up on the site early next year. So! I'll take this opportunity to wish everyone in the Fic Awards good luck, and to wish you all a merry Christmas and a happy New Year!
Merry Christmas on behalf of the team of Bwint.net!
Congratulations to Caleb for winning the Pictures and Captions competition! Keep those votes coming in for the Fan
Fiction Awards! There's a new general poll
now to vote at. 'Who would look best as Santa Claus THIS year?' 1st: Optimus - 20%
10 December 2005
In light of the fact that I'd forgotten the closing date of the Fan Fiction Comedy Writing Challenge was today, I'm keeping it open open for another month. This will also allow those interested more time to start or finish a fic. Please participate - we actually really need another entry or two for it to work properly. New Stuff: There are some more caption entries for the Pictures and Captions competition, which is now open for voting. Keep those votes coming in for the Fan
Fiction Awards! There's a new general poll
now to vote at. 'Who
do you think would look best in a pair of reindeer antlers and a
red nose?'
3 December 2005 Thank you to all who submitted nominations! We had a really good turn out this year. I'll use this opportunity to let those of you who're wondering why a few of your nominations weren't accepted that some I received were for fics that did not fit the category they were nominated for, or the fic/series was too old to be eligible for 2005's nominations.
The nominating period is officially closed. You can view the list of nominations here. The polls for voting are now open. You can find the voting link at the bottom of the nominations page and on the main Fan Fiction Awards page. I urge everyone who wishes to partake in this penultimate stage of the Awards to please try your best to read everything nominated in the category you're casting a vote for. It is only fair to give the competition a chance. I know in the case of Best Series, this is a big request, but I'd prefer that anyone who is going to make a decision when voting makes an informed one. That way the Awards will carry more meaning. Thanks for listening. Please make sure you follow the simple rules for voting, which are do not vote for a category more than once and please try not to be biased - vote for which fic you honestly believe is best in the category it was nominated for.
Master Solo has submitted an episode review for Double Dinobot. Lolo GS submitted some additional bloopers and animation odds. There are some caption entries for the current Pictures
and Captions competition. It's open for just one more week,
so if you'd like to submit a caption, do so before next Saturday. There's a new general poll
now to vote at. 'Which
Beast Wars episode do you think could have been done without? (A.K.A:
Which episode didn't you want in the series?)'
26 November 2005
There is just one more week left for nominating! I urge every fic reader to send in nominations, particularly for the categories that are lacking (such as "Best Battle Sequence", which has one!) Thank you to all who have submitted so far! There's a new Pictures
and Captions competition. Check it out and try your wit! There's a new general poll
now to vote at. 'What
do you think would be a funny little comic strip that Cheetor would
make? (not saying he did, but then again...)'
19 November 2005
Introducing a new section to BWInt.net: A very handy section has been added to the episode reviews section. Have you ever repeatedly misheard a line in an episode, or wanted to find a reference for a quote? The Beast Wars scripts are no longer available online, but the next best thing to it now is. Thanks to Syntia, there are now text files of subtitles for each and every episode of Beast Wars. Click here to find out more. Congratulations to Outtsyder for winning the Pictures and Captions competition. A new competition will be started in the next week or so. There's a new form mailer you can use to submit
fanfic nominations, for the
2005 Fan Fiction Awards. Hopefully this one will work properly.
More info on it here. There's a new general poll
now to vote at. 'What
was your first reaction to the end of season 1?'
12 November 2005
You can now vote for the best caption for the Pictures and Captions competition. Two more nominations
have been sent in. Please keep sending them in! There's a new general poll
now to vote at. 1st: I was hooked the very first episode! - 59%
7 November 2005
Announcement: While I'm pleased with the amount of nominations the Awards have received in the first week, I'm worried I didn't get all of them. It turns out the nominations form is being fickle. Sometimes it works, and sometimes it doesn't (and I cant', for the life of me, figure out WHY). So, until I sort out getting a new form emailer, please send nominations to me directly at sapphire@bwint.net Also, everyone who has submitted nominations using that form, I ask you to please check the Nominated Fics page to check if your nominations are listed. If they aren't, I did not receive them. If this is the case, please, please resend them. I'm really sorry for the inconvenience. *grumbles at faulty php* Check out the latest Pictures and Captions competition and try your wit and humour! Another blooper has been added to page 2 of the Beast Wars Mistakes and Animation Oddities section. An episode review for "The Trigger: Part 2" has kindly been submitted by Jammer. Texan Temptress has also typed up a script for "The Agenda: Part 1" which can be found at the bottom of the review for that episode. A link to the fansite "Legends of Cybertron" has been added to the links page. There's a new general poll
now to vote at. 1st: Yes! - 41%
29 October 2005 Latest Fan Fiction || Fan Art Update
Congratulations to Wicked Woman for winning the latest Pictures and Captions competition. A new competition will start up next week. This weekend marks the start of Beast Wars International's annual Fan Fiction Awards! Everybody dance! There's a new category this year, and there have been a few small changes to the nominating guidelines as well, so be sure to check that out. I urge every fanfic writer and reader to bear these awards in mind when reading fics and take the time and effort to submit nominations, so that we can make these awards a success. To make it easier for everyone this year, there's a Nominations Form, linked on the Fan Fiction Awards page, which is on the Beast Wars, Fan Fiction and Current Events pages. The form makes sending nominations very quick and easy, although if you want to do it the traditional way (emailing them to me directly) you can still do that. Dates and guidelines are all on the Fan Fiction Awards page.
There's a new general poll
now to vote at. 1. A fairy costume - 53%
22 October 2005

Now you can find fics by the author's first name. You'd *better* enjoy the section, because I spent hours on it! Wicked Woman kindly submitted an episode review for "The Web". Again, any more episode review submissions are very appreciated. There's a new Pictures and Captions competition! Scroll down to the bottom of page 1 and try your wit. :D Outtsyder's report has been added to the Botcon reports page. A pretty nifty picture has been added to the Maximals: Group Shots image gallery. One more generation one Transformers were adopted this week. There aren't many remaining, so if you'd like to adopt one, you'd better hurry up! A few more of my funky avatars have been added to the Avatars page, seeing as most of the original batch have been snapped up. There's a new poll now to vote at. (Note: Wicked Woman does the polls, and because of the time difference she sometimes changes them later than I update, so for that reason there may be a delay each update for when the new poll shows.)
1. Depth Charge - 35% Another small fic update this week, with two fics and one poem by a new writer to Bwint. Click here for the latest fan fiction.
1 October 2005

There's a new poll now to vote at. The genre for the next Fan Fiction challenge has been voted on. The winning genre was comedy. More details on the challenge can be found here.

mode?' There's just a small fic update this week, with one fic and one poem. Hopefully next week the BWA Archive database will be complete for accessing fics by author names. Click here for the latest fan fiction.
19 September 2005
Many sections have been revamped and added to. The image galleries have just had a large influx of images, from both Omicron the Ice Queen and myself (thanks Omie!). There are now galleries for Ravage, the Vok, the Tripredicus Council and Transmutate. All the character biographies have been edited or redone completely, and there are now bios on The Tripredicus Council and the Vok. There's additional information on BW, including an "About the Show" section and "The Creative Team" which lists the crew who worked on BW. The links page has been updated with link to the voice actors' websites and fanclubs. There's now a "Current Events" section linked on the main page. That will tell you what big or small events are happening at Bwint, from fic competitions to the annual Awards. The special surprise addition at the site is the recently recovered "Beast Wars Anonymous" archives. Joshin Yasha found a web archive site that still had BWA cached on its system, and she painstakingly downloaded a few hundred fics, which I painstakingly coded into html and archived here for your viewing pleasure. I did a few years' fic work in a few days, so I'm a little tired. O_O Thanks to Beastbot and Miss Special, the toy reviews archive is now complete. There are reviews and photos on all the show characters. There are a few more episode reviews. Hopefully over the next month, the episode reviews archive will be completed. A poll is up for the next Fan Fiction challenge. Check out the "Current Events" page to find out more. There's been lots of little changes here and there, and some big
ones, but I can't list them all here, so please explore the site!
If you see any pages still with the old layout, please, please email
me and let me know! The same goes for any broken links/errors etc.
Otherwise, enjoy Bwint in it's shiny new layout glory!
No Fanfic update today, soley because I've uploaded a few hundred BWA fics! There's just one poem by Darkshadow. Regular updates will continue not next weekend, but the weekend after.
Tiny fanfic update this week. Check out the "Latest Fan Fiction" page. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 3 September 2005 Important: Miss Special and I have been very busy lately working on something for all of you, and now it's complete! Presenting the Layout Choices for Beast Wars International 05/06! Yes, you read correctly, the site is having a makeover! With the site renewal, the art pieces hitting over 600 and certain archives heading for a massive increase in the near future, we both felt it was time we celebrated Bwint's successes with a new site design. We also decided it wasn't fair just to make one and apply it to the site without asking YOU, the visitor, for your input. So please head over to the Layout Choices page to find out more and have your say. On a side note, it's likely that the next update will be next week Sunday, not Saturday. New Stuff: Congratulations to Outtsyder for winning the Pictures and Captions competition. The image and caption is displayed on page 2. Master Solo sent in three images and captions, which have been displayed on the new page 3 of the Pictures and Captions section. I've updated the Featured Fanfic of the Week, which can be seen on the BW Express page. Here are the results for this week's poll: 'How much BW Fan Fiction do you read?' 1.) Just the occasional fic when the mood strikes me - 40% 2.) A fair amount - 24% 3.) Tons. I'm a fic-o-holic. - 20% 4.) Quite a lot. I'm pretty well-read. - 16% Very small fanfic update this week. Check out the "Latest Fan Fiction" page.
28 August 2005 Updates are back to normal now, hopefully. New Stuff: *sigh* Silly me. It seems I missed adding a caption for last week's Pictures and Captions competition. To be fair to the person whose caption I forgot, the poll is now between this week's leading caption and the new addition. Those who voted before, please re-vote. Sorry for the inconvenience. Polls are open 1 more week. The Featured Fic of the Week is staying the same since it's only been up for a few days. Here are the results for this week's poll: 'Which kind of BW
Transformer type do you prefer?' Last update's fanfic submissions are still displayed on the "Latest Fan Fiction" page as they've only been up a few days. There are also 2 new fanfics for this update and 1 Vault submission. 24 August 2005 So far just three people have donated to keeping BWInt going (excluding myself and Miss Special).

New Stuff: Announcement: Some of you might be aware I've been planning a 'surprise' new addition for Bwint (no, the Vault wasn't it). Well, it's a big addition and it will be a monthly updated thing. However, I can't make it all by myself. So I'm calling on a special few individuals to help out with it. It's an exciting addition which could really take off, but those wishing to work on it with need to have certain skills. You can learn a bit more about that here. This website is a huge thing to run, but new projects like this is what keeps it constantly alive and hopefully worth revisiting. So, in short, help would be greatly appreciated. Look at the link!!

23 April 2005 I'm working now, so I just thought I'd make an announcement stating that, so if updates are a bit late and if I don't reply to submissions as fast as I usually do, you know why. New Stuff: I know I was supposed to put up two fanclubs this weekend, but confirmation for both came late, so time was too short for both. The Optimus Fanclub is up this weekend, and Blackarachnia's shall be up next weekend. There's a new (I think hilarious) pic to caption for the latest Pictures and Captions competition.

Not much in the way of fics this week. Check out the Latest Fan Fiction page. And please, if I forgot something, tell me! The length of my memory is inversely proportional to my level of education. 19 February 2005 Important Announcement: Next week I move into my new house. It's empty and my family have a lot of things to set up before we can even think about getting Internet. So I will be unable to update for an undetermined amount of time, hopefully just a week or two. However, Miss Special is taking over management of the site until I get back. She won't be putting up new content like fanclubs, but she will be adding fics and art and any episode or toy reviews sent her way. If you have any other stuff to send, send it to me in the meantime. I'll deal with it all when I get back. It's a big site to run, which is why Miss Special will only be handling reviews, fics and art. But in short, updates will continue, to the best of her ability and time she can make for them. Email her fics etc. to miss_special@bwint.net New Stuff: More fanclubs coming soon. I have a list of names for some more clubs, but I still need to confirm a few people before I can make 'em. In other club news, there are more members to the Rattrap and Depth Charge clubs, and Sinead's sent in her reasons why she loves Dinobot! And Amber Dawn sent in her reasons for loving Cheetor. There was a tremendous response (for Bwint, anyway) for the Pictures and Captions competition. So much so that I'm closing it this week and opening the polls! Go vote for your fave caption now! :D Blaze Raptor submitted an episode review for 'Maximal No More', complete with images! I updated the Featured Fanfic on the BW Express page. A new poll has been added. Here are the results to the previous polls: Poll

The images are really good quality for screen captures, so enjoy! New addition to the site (linked in the Beast Wars Express page) are the Character Fanclubs! There's currently only one for Rattrap, but if you'd like to see more for other characters, check out the requirements on the Fanclub main page. Several Beast Wars animation oddities have been added to the BW Bloops and Animation Oddities page, all of them on the new page 2.

15 January 2005 I've been working for two weeks on this update, so it's nice 'n big! I've also done some general maintenance on some pages, so you'll notice a few changed graphics and headers. Also in the Fan Art section, the Fan Art Awards have begun this week, so be sure to see check out the Fan Art Update for more details. New Stuff: This is what took up the bulk of my time. I've painstakingly created an image gallery for every Beast Warrior, while trying to use only the best images around for each character. If you go to the Media page, you'll see a link to Character Galleries. That's the image index page with a link to each individual Beast Warrior's image gallery. I'll be adding to these galleries as I find and get sent in more high-quality images. You'll find the Dinobot and Rattrap galleries particularly impressive, with Megatron, Tarantulas and Cheetor's galleries also looking good. Thanks goes to Flyby Stardancer and Landray Depth Charge for their help! A Beast Wars animation oddity has been added to the BW Bloops and Animation Oddities page. Three high-quality images have been added to the Code of Hero review. A review for Tangled Web has also been added, complete with images thanks to Miss Special! A toy review on TM2 Cheetor has been added, complete with images. An image of the TM Tarantulas toy in robot mode has been added as well. I seem to have forgotten poor Tigerhawk! He never featured as Character of the Month, so he will feature next month. In the meantime, a character bio on the Beast Warrior has been added to the Maximal list in the Beast Warriors section. A new 'Link-to-Bwint.net' banner has been added to the Link to Us page. Grimloq and Amber Dawn both have 'About the Author' sections, and I've updated mine. Please send in some more caption entries for the Pictures and Captions competition! Otherwise it'll just be between two people next week. I updated the Featured Fanfic on the BW Express page. A new poll has been added. Here are the results to the previous polls: Poll Question: 'Which Predacon do you think is the eldest?' 1st: Megatron - 28% 2nd: Tarantulas/Rampage - 17% 3rd: Waspinator
And the most recent poll:
Poll Question: 'Do you think that a new race of Cybertronians should've been created while the Axalon and the Darkside were in the Beast Wars?' 1st: Interesting, but not by much - 31% 2nd: What? How would that work?/Maybe, that could be cool -23% 3rd: Yeah! That could be interesting - 15%
Check out the Latest Fan Fiction page to see what's new there. 10 January 2005 Latest Fan Fiction || Fan Art Update I apologize for the lack of update on the 9th. My Internet lines were down and have been very unstable for three days. To make it up to you, there will be a really big update next weekend, with brand new image galleries being added to the media section. I've purchased a new laptop which means I can now work a lot faster and, as it plays DVDs, add many more screenshots (free of branding) to the site's image database. So! I'll see you all next weekend, if all goes well and if the Internet's back in working order. If anyone has anything to send, please feel free. * * * In respect for the victims of the terrible tsunami disaster in Asia, below are some links to Aid organizations, where, for those of you who have some money to spare, you can give a donation.
