Hello! Stopping by to see how you are all getting on :)

Tonight I have the house to myself

Question How loud do you like the volume to be while listening to songs? 5 points for signing in, 5 for answering the question. I prefer volume to be low

Too long ago since we've had one of those. I'll start with... A cat. Pictures allowed but not required?

Anyone want to join me for a game of This or That? Let's make it hard... Chocolate or ice cream?

Googled Storm Leader to see what I could find for pics and I found this in the images...*shivers* Aghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Nigel Farage...creepy man

This will be an advanced game but very friendly for new players. Bit on the experimental side but should be a lot of fun. Can run with 12 but prefer 14 if possible. Game will start when sign ups are full. Let's keep up the streak of great BT mafia games. 1.Sooh 2.Tina 3.Zander 4.Darthe 5.Ithi 6.Shadar 7.Dice 8.Yates 9.seph 10.BFG 11.Turin 12.Ley 13.Cory 14.Clov

Now what could that be...?

So, I'll post a phrase that I've had Google Translate skilfully translate into another language - and the language it's supposed the be. The next person picks up that translation and translates it into another language. We do this ten times and then translate it back into English. Sounds fun? https://translate.google.com/ 1. Spanish: La Rueda del Tiempo gira y edades vienen y pasan, dejando recuerdos que se convierten en leyenda. La leyenda se desvanece al mito, e incluso el mito es el olvido cuando la edad que dio a luz viene de nuevo. So the next person needs to translate the above from Spanish into another language. Oops can't d…

You know how sometimes in life you work, and work hard, and it all comes to nothing? It kind of sucks. Really sucks. How have you guys dealt with the times you've felt cheated or underappreciated?

I am not including WoT because it would be embarrassing if WoT didn't win on a WoT forum and so that no one feels obliged to vote for it. 1. Stormlight Archive- 5 2. Lord of the Rings- 5 3.

Welcome to: The Tainted Times April 2015 Please welcome these civilians: Cass Aniere A lot of promotions this month: Sooh has been promoted to Soldier Elaevia has been promoted to Asha'man Leyrann has been promoted to Attack Leader And then Sooh and Leyrann got promoted again: Both are now Storm Leader RTE has taken up the role of Faction Leader of the Shadow. Welcome, new M'Hael. You're in luck: Just today RTE posted sign-ups for his 9-5 mafia game The Best Fantasy Series Elimination Game has come to a close also today, but the next Elimination Game will without doubt be posted soon. We ha…

Mafia. A game and yet sometime so much more than that. Tears can be cried, laptops slammed shut and people can stay up till silly o'clock because someone posted something on the internet. Were the moments of hilarity, genius, headdesking and facepalming truly worth it? Help was at hand though. The Mafia Voluntary Protection Service (MVPS) offered Mafia players a way out ... with a new identity. Skillfully created, these new identities would ensure that no-one would ever know a certain person was actually a Mafia Player. Their secret identity became their only identity. Once accepted into the MVPS, the Mafia Players were granted amnesty from responsibility for pa…

This one certainly deserves it, at least:

Seriously rey, I feel awful. Will it ever end?

Back to the Future: The Age of Legends 2014 Empy Awards! That time of year has come again when Dragonmount celebrates the year that has passed and all the fun we have had. As you may have guessed, this year's theme is the mysterious wonder that was the Age of Legends. With homage to the Back to the Future series, the theme is to reflect on the past while looking forward to the future. As the Wheel weaves, what once was will come again. Thus, we have one question to ask: Who are the Legends of our Age? Who will take out the Dragon Award? Which group will win the V’Saine Award? Who can live up to the expectations of the First Among Se…

The current cliche mafia game needs a replacement. If anyone is willing please respond here

There haven't been many hot threads lately. To revive those, hot thread points in February will be doubled and the points of hot thread winner will be tripled. Please avoid solo spamming treads (double spamming is okay). You won't get points for more than two solo spamming threads. For those who don't know about hot threads, it is like this For a thread you start that gets 50 posts, you get 5 points. For a thread you start that gets 100 posts, you get 10 points. For a thread you start that gets 150 posts, you get 15 points. For a thread you start that gets 200 posts, you get 15 points. For February, every incremental 50 posts, gets 5 points.

Fellow Wheel of Time fans, We are assembling a tribute dedicated to Robert Jordan (RIP) to be given to his widow, Harriet McDougal Rigney, for the coming JordanCon in April 2015. We would like to compile an album filled with postcards of his fans’ hometowns to illustrate the distance his words have traveled and to showcase all the lives he has touched. In the postcard you may put in a few words about how the series affected your lives, a favorite Wheel of Time quote, words for Harriett. Whatever you are comfortable with. The postcards are to be sent in an envelope, with the address listed below. If you want to include a local stamp on your postcard for decoration, …

Seems like the taint around here would draw people to the podcast "Welcome to Night Vale." Anyone here listen to it? I just started a few weeks ago and I'm so hooked! It's a podcast done like a mock radio show in the fictional(?) town of Night Vale, where paranormal things are commonplace. Each episode is about 20-30 minutes long, which is just the perfect length! And Cecil--the broadcaster--has such a wonderful voice. I can listen to it at night and it soothes me to sleep. <3 And, though no description is ever given of Cecil, the fanart available is AMAZING! The show is hilariously random and super cute (wit…

Once upon a time I started a thread that became a list of all the stereotypes and clichés you can find in a mafia game. I said I'd run a game based on them and I'm up next. But I can't find the thread so I can't get the game built. Can anyone help me find it?
