The Official Bombers Thread

I'd ask "can ZI pay me to return?" but of course the fact of the matter is that it's run by Capn Cornflake.

Seriously, I'd love to pay our writers, but I haven't had money like that in years now. I just keep repeating the old "when the site starts making money..." chant

Ah, cheers Uncle Meat.

I'd been getting error messages everytime I tried to load the page, but it's working now. Thanks a bunch!

Compromise: I'll return immediately, but we have to get the same flashy banners again.

Got an update for you!
A new article was posted this weekend, and it's a must-read for Majora's Mask fans!

A sort of psychological explanation of the Fierce Deity and Majora's Mask:
Origins of the Fierce Deity and Majora's Mask

Lately, I've been busting my butt fixing a bunch of issues and creating a new archive for the articles. You can expect some major improvements to the old system (if you can even call it that) soonish. So if you've been wanting to get your hands on those ancient articles, not currently accessible through the bombers page, they're on their way.

EDIT: Ah what the heck, here you go. Here's the official announcement.

Wow. This thread isn't even advertizing a ZU group and it's already gotten more replies than the two sticky threads that have been in theorizing forever.

Cool.
How do I join?
Do I make an account on ZI then be done?

You have to make an account on ZI, yes, but you're not "done" then.
You have to write an article, and sent it to Uncle Meat for review. If it looks like you have what it takes, then you're in. But keep in mind that there's responsibilities as a Bomber. You'll be expected to write articles regularly, and also give other Bombers feedback on their articles before they get posted, so that corrections and changes can be made if necessary.

Anyone who is interested in joining, but doesn't know if they'll be able to keep up with all that responsibility can submit guest articles from time to time.

Well, one of them is locked

Hmm, so people will be more active, I suppose. Can't be bad. I say yay!

Alright, we've got an update for you
I'm very proud to present my newest article: The Nature of the Triforce

The sacred Triforce has long been the focal point of the Legend of Zelda series. With each game, it seems something new is revealed about these mysterious golden triangles. Does all this information harmonize, and can one truly grasp the full nature of the Triforce? This article explores those very questions.

The Nature of the Triforce - ZeldaInformer

Beautiful explanation. That was a great read.

Thank you to all who read and/or commented. If you have not read it yet, I highly suggest you do; you may very well get a better grasp on what the Triforce is and does.

Also note, for deeper discussion of the article, a thread has been made:
Article Discussion-The Nature of the Triforce

Everyone is welcome to browse, but you'll need an accout to reply.

It's that time again!
We've got another Bombers Article up:

The Unknown Wars

Written by Lex, it's a great article piecing together the information we get in several games to give the story of the "Prolonged Wars" that occured before Ocarina of Time.

Bump enough?

Sounds interesting, *clicks link.*

My apologies for delaying the article a bit.
It wasn't Lex's fault.

That said, this is once again a great article from one of the original Bombers. Essential reading for all theorists.

Well there are obvious reasons for this. The bomber's theories in general are very well known across the board in the community, and they are very well written with a lot of support facts behind each one. Really, they mostly are known so well because they know their stuff.

So, naturally in terms of theorizing, even without a ZU Group (seriously, all this new crap in VB is just a fad) it's going to be a fairly popular thread.


Oh, and I run ZI now too, along with... EA. Except, I actually do work on the site, unlike a certain el CaptainCornflake.

oh bravo for this latest bomber article!

I just have to comment on the way the writer fits the story of the fierce wars from three games into one easily digestable chunk.

hurrah to the bombers!

Nice Lex.

I never would have thought of it that way.

After a brief delay, the newest Bombers Article is up!
The Greatest Legend of Zelda Song

After examining Screw Attacks top ten video game songs list, Bombers writer Casey explains his choice for the best Legend of Zelda song.
