The Band of the Red Hand

*grins* In Belgium, today, we all have a day off as it is "la Fête du Travail". It's a kind of Workers Celebration Day. I won't bore you with history or with the explanation about what is really celebrated ... but I want to put some accessory to good use. You know accessories that I wish I had sometimes at work but can't bring with me. Accessories that would help me have a nice little break and rest What about a nice little pillow fight ? *throws one of her gothic pillows at the next poster*

People of the Band, let's welcome our Brand New Raw Recruit, Gambler WolfBrother *hands him a Flaming shot* here is your new favorite drink:

Do you know any? Obviously, fellow Aussies, I reckon you should know a few ;) but I'm curious to know how/if Australian talent is recognised overseas.. Which Aussie bands/musicians have you heard of/do you like/are popular out there in the big wide world??

Ha ha! Just kidding...made you look.

Welcome to the assylum! *grins*. Tell us a bit about yourself. Excuse my brief post, but I'm on my iPod and it's a pain in the arse to type on. Grab a drink and join the fun!

Our recruiters are currently offline, so i'll get this started (and hopefully won't get in trouble for it ) *hands out drinks for everybody joining the thread* so, here's what will happen: First, you will have to go through the Raw Recruit phase. That way, you can decide which of the Regiments you will join. You will spend a couple of days with each regiment and will get tasks assigned. After finishing all tasks, and having spent time with everybody, getting to know people etc, you can choose between: Archers, Infantry or Cavalry. (Some people might refer to those groups as featherpluckers, latrinediggers and ponyriders, just so you know) Our recruite…

Welcome to the Band of the Red Hand! While you wait on gaining access to our group boards, usually a week or two, please feel free to take a look around what you can see then sit back and tell us a bit about yourself while you enjoy some of our world famous drinks. I'm Nikon, current Captain-General of the Archers Regiment! **Hands the recruit a few flaming shots and a rum runner** I'm sure some of the other band members will be along shortly to say hello.

C'mon people, let's welcome our brand new recruit, Dustbringer. *hands a mug of brew to the newcomer* that's yours, and please don't spill it

or has it become rather quiet in here lately? So, here's a question for all of ya's...... Any band of the red hand meets planned, or ideas about one? Euro, international, small, large... Kinda wondering, since you people are awesomesauce and i'd like to meet a couple of ya ( i think Chae would too ) Serious thoughts and randomness appreciated! Btw.. i vote Belgium as meeting place, best beer in the world

Been playing it casually for about 2 months now... anyone else play?

Regimental Book Discussion April is the second month of the year when The Archers get to host The Band's monthly book discussion. Material from all books, including AMoL may be used however please remember that some members may not have read the final book yet so try to use spoiler tags or omit any huge events from the final book as an attempt to give everyone the ability to participate. For your participation in the discussion you will be awarded points. To earn these points you must be an active participant throughout the month. You will not receive points for "Yes, I agree" or "That's a neat idea", etc... however you may begin your post with this if you follow up wi…

Rules of the Game 1)The person above you will post a random search phrase. Go to Google Image Search and enter the phrase. Post the first image that comes up. Make sure it is DM appropriate. 2)Just like random word association, now give your own search phrase for the next poster to search. (don't spoil the fun by searching for your own phrase!) As an example, if the person above me said "random funny butterfly" I would find that image and post the picture. The image that came up was a cartoon butterfly so maybe I would then say "kid's cartoon" as the phrase for the next person to search and image post. LET THE GAME BEGIN! My phrase is "Band of th…

My brother is getting married the 20th, so I'll be flying out to California on the 18th or 19th, can't remember which one. We'll be there for around 5 days, and then be coming back for the Open-House thingy (whatever it is). So basically, for the next couple weeks, I'll have limited access at best.

a somewhat familiar figure limps (with surprising grace and a devilish grin) back into camp....... Don't cry, Duckling, I've come back to torment you once again. ;) Sorry for my absence, everyone, but apparently beating everyone else to the Eye of the World calls the Dark One's attention and well....he tried to break my leg for it. (No joke, I'm still messed up, and just got my internet back)

So I do not know about the rest of y'all. But I have songs, that everytime I hear them. Remind me of people I care about, that tell me memories of loved ones. Stories of times with them, that I will always cherish. Songs that tell of my love for others, and how I feel. This is one such song, its a song that reminds me of one of my closest friends. Someone I care for deeply, and it always shall. Now I invite you to share your own songs, songs that do these very things for you.

You are awesome! I've kinda lost my overview with all the Dear ... Threads on this board. So I've made myself one. It's good init?

Welcome to the band! I hope you have as much fun here as I do!!! Until we get your access sorted out (usually takes a couple of days) feel free to post where you can see! *slides Jak a few guinys* Those are the official drink of the best regiment around, The Infantry! I'm totally not biased or anything....okay maybe a little. I'm Davrick the current Captain General of the Infantry as well as the band's XOA as you have seen in the welcome letter I sent ya for horn.

Horn walked to the center of the Band's encampment, holding a stew pot under one arm, and a crate in another. Putting the crate down in the middle of all of the foot traffic, he stepped up and looked around. Holding the pot by its handle with one hand, he put his other hand inside and began stirring the paper contents. Ladies and Gentlemen of the Band! It is time to announce this month's Lottery draw! Everyone looked up at the strange man yelling at them, and a few came over holding lottery tickets, hoping for a lucky draw. Everyone except the Infantry's recruits, that is, who were hard at work digging latrines. The number for the month of March is... Horn…

*points at the infamous lawbreaker ball and chain* yup, that's right... one more week... 7 bloody days...; and i'll be rid of this evil device. I promise, no more than one at a time breaking of rules by me. *heads over to The Burning Arrow for a drink*

EVERYONE, BALEFIRE NIKON OR EB "I'm sorry I balefired Nikons weapon, not only was it destroying the property of a superior officers but it was also wrong to channel within the band grounds."

Please send me links to your completed tasks as you go so I can keep track of who's up to date... *Passes out under a mountain of paperwork, mumbling something about rrrrreeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaallllllllllllllllyyyyyyyyy needing a drink* Crazy, law-breaking Banders!!

I saw the Lego movie over the weekend and loved the spaceman dude (and unikitty, but that's a different story) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_WqqikjtyyM So the question is what makes you really really excited, one word. For me it's the roueda (salsa)

I do! To the er... the channeling problem... Everyone who from now on wants to break sacred band laws by channeling will have to see and probably fight me for the rights first! *grins and takes the activated dreamspike out from under his cloak with a flourish* And I'm not leaving the grounds :nods:

I am sorry that I have said things completely unrelated to wheel of time. I will be more serious in the band of the red hand and never balefire in this band again. I APOLOGIZE TO EVERYONE WHO READS MY POSTS especially Nikon, because he had to deal with everything I have done. Also, Dawn says I am annoying everyone, so I will stop going on DragonMount forever because no one wants me on the site. So goodbye everyone! And even if I am somehow convinced to go onto this site again, I will probably never balefire again. This is my last post so goodbye.

I know it doesn't relate to WoT, but watch the WHOLE thing! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h7sOUDOES5c sorry i broke the rules That rule breaker thing is a spotfine

Random musicy thread about learning new songs - whether you're singing or learning to play on an instrument, or even composing a song, tell us about it! :) I'm shirking exam revision trying to get Forever&Always by Taylor Swift right on le guitar - I got all the chords down but am still having problems with the strumming pattern. Internet not really being helpful *pout*

GUYS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I MADE AN AMAZING DISCOVERY!!!!!!!!! I KNOW HOW TO BALEFIRE WITHOUT CHANNELING!!!! LOOK AT PIC BELOW FOR DETAILS:

Today at 1436 (at lunchtime) my last milk-tooth vacated the spot at the front of my lower jaw that it had occupied for the last 16-something years... I know, its quite late...
