Once you have taken the test, please post your results here! I also recommend playing with the story generator! My friends and I are university had a lot of fun with it! Feel free to make a new thread with your silly stories, and I expect we can put the best few into The Hornsounder! I will keep a logged results table here for all to see!!! Good luck!

CALLING ALL EUROPEAN DMERS!!!! After the success and fun of the first ever DM EuroMeet, held in London over a long weekend in July 2007, planning for the next EuroMeet is well underway. And what makes DM EuroMeet 2008 even more exciting is the fact that 2008 is the year that DM celebrates its 10th Birthday! So why not join in the celebrations with your fellow DMers from Europe? After the London meet and discussion on the DM boards, two cities have been chosen as possible locations for DM EuroMeet 2008. Voting is currently going on to determine where the event will be held, and the voting ends on 31st October 2007 to allow the next stage of the planning to st…

the dice have spun up a bit of dust and bone... Hail to those of the band, perhaps a few of your memories might recall Maglin 'josVinn, Captain General of the Scouts and one time commander of the armies? I saw the news of RJ, and felt obliged to express my sorrow. I hope you're all doing well and sound.

I don't know how many of you know (I didn't until I logged in this morning), but the literary world is one less of a great writer now. The man who brought us altogether at DM, the one and only Robert Jordan, sadly passed away on Sunday 16th September 2007 after a fight against a horrid disease. Please read the post on his blog written by his cousin for more information. There are two places to post your sympathies. One is the blog itself, and the other is in this thread. According to the DM Staff Board, Jason will be attending the funeral on DM's behalf. Once more is known, I will be posting details of DM's memorial to the great RJ. Please note that v…

Welcome to the Band, the best Org on DM 8) ;D You are now officially a Raw Recruit. I'm Tay, the Executive Officer, just sent you a PM with lots of info. Shout if you need any help as I'm in charge of recruits. *hugs and hands several brews* Now hang onto any loose clothing and make sure you're tied down as the Official Spiel is heading your way courtesy of the Marshal General!! Have a whole lot of fun. ;) Oh yeah and don't worry if you have any Pink sightings, Footy/Deathdealer/Grim etc etc... let's just say he's a bit of a fixture, but really quite harmless :D

The off-site board seems to be... er... gone. Is anybody else having trouble getting there, or am I just special? ???

A hale and hearty welcome to The Band of the Red Hand! I'm Demonspawn! (Not literally) I'm RLO for the Infantry, You will recieve a PM from a senior staff member explaining all sorts of important stuff. Then our esteemed MG Corki will give you the official spiel! Do not be too scared by this! ;) Until then sit back and relax with a few brews, and above all else, have fun and rejoice in the knowledge that you are now part of THE best Org here at DM!

Long time no see Banders. I'm here before you today, to tell a frightening, and indeed true, story. Those who feel weak of heart may turn away now.. and turn back now. Do that 50-100 times to each side and your body will thank you for it. It all began this morning.. *twinkly-plinky sounds of remembering* I stepped onto the bus, glad to get out of the light shower that made the morning feel even colder than it was. As usual the bus was almost empty as my stop in one of the first it does. I made my way to my usual seat and sat down, noting the crack in the window that identified this bus as the same one i had been riding for several months. A few more …

It's "Demon ..... Spawn" Not a badly punctuated version of "Demon's Pawn". I was so confused by that choice of name, but it makes so much more sense now. I really don't know many people that would refer to themselves as pawns. *shakes head at self* *nods*

Welcome Caci to the best Organization (Org) on Dragonmount, The Band of the Red Hand. *nods* My name is Odette and I'm just posting this to make you feel welcomed. ^_^ So post, say hello, and then sit back and wait for everyone to say hello as well. Shortly you'll probably get a PM from one of the staff members explaining all sorts of important stuff. And then Corki, our esteemed Marshal General (Org leader) will be here to give you the famous Official Spiel. It's quite possibly the best spiel you've ever heard in your lifetime, so when you read it, try to hold onto something or someone or you'll get knocked off your seat. Ummm.. Yup, that's about it…

Welcome to this month's edition of the Hornsounder! Dear Hornsounder Reader, It seems I only blinked and summer came and went and suddenly the rush of students flooding in for the new academic year is pounding on my door, colleagues and friends are muttering their vacation was way too short and some people are spotted planning their Christmas feast already! August was one of those months that had people going off doing whatever they do off the computer knowing they better take whatever advantage they could from these last few moments of peace and quiet before the Rush. But never fear, for the Hornsounder is right back here where it belongs! You'd nev…

Hello players, supporters, families and friends! August brought us 5 extremely brave and fierce individuals beating all the odds and gave all others a clear view of their backside. the JoTS Competition has been finished and the winner will be announced in the July Edition of the Hornsounder which will be published at the latest on Sunday. The Sudoku Challenge this month was especially difficult. Several did try to break down the Master's Rule, but failed... :( And then…… then came……. La Dolce Sudoka! Executive Officer, La Brain Rummaging Bella, Blademaster and Queen of the Games...... TAYMIST! Your winnings: 3 Game Points + the July …

Hey all, figured I need to get better acquainted and get to know my fellow members of The Band...so here goes....while most of us of the Band would try to steer clear of Aes Sedai in general, I would like to know who you all found the most intriguing and dare I say *gulp, realizes there might be Aes Sedai in the Band* tolerable??

This is a repost from a thread that didn't make it over in the move. Feel free to copy and paste your old post, or start a-fresh! I read an article in one of the free London paper's a while back about the worst lyrics ever, and have just done a quick look on the BBC website to find it. From what I understand, the radio channel BBC Radio 6 had recently run a survey to see what its listeners thought were the worst lyrics ever. Click here to have a look at the top 10. Or if you are lasy, here is a low-down on those lyrics chosen: How a few questions: - Do you agree with that list? - If you don't, nominate your own lyrics and we'll compile our own …
