The Black Tower

...Because why not? Which Power Ranger is your favourite?

The word that best defined Dr. Douglases home was bland. I had honestly expected that he would live in some crumbling Chateau or at least an old Plantation that he had remodeled, those seemed to fit him. This square, plain-faced brick block of a house was entirely underdone. The inside fared no better. She had arrived in better time than expected and left her meatheaded class-mate to collect their luggage. A few of the other students were mulling about in a living room that was oddly devoid of seating. One of them that she didn't know well was caught in a sneezing fit. From the dust filtering through the air it was no wonder. She looked around for Dr. John but …

If you go to a random Wikipedia article and click the first link in the normal text, and repeat it, you will eventually (and by that I mean in an acceptable time frame) end at philosophy?

So, our recent little Parody of a DM Mafia Game here in the BT has got me thinking. If there were a Basic Game of Mafia - where the Roles were all the usual stuff, but the Characters assigned to the players were 'Typical Stereo Type Mafia Player' What Characters would be possible? The Characters would in effect be kind of a PR - where the Player would have to act in na certain way according to the Stereotype they were assigned. Furthermore - the Characters would be randomly given to the Player - regardless of if they had a Town or Mafia Role. Would it be interesting to effectively remove Meta by giving someone a different persona? How would you feel …

http://www.rinkworks.com/fnovel/ Well, 8 and 9 a bit, but the god (if you can call it that, left unclear) wants the main characters to do the brunt of the work themselves; It's not his fight, he's more or less neutral. And with 39, yeah, I got elves, but they're night-elves and not like what you normally see.

why hello all you crazy people, it's been too long. Guess what I am back. And I'm here to steal everybody's tacos.

Welcome to Black Tower!

BLACK ICE HAIKUS Welcome everyone to Black Ice Haikus. In this game, you submit haikus related to a shadow or ice theme. Players will receive 5 points for their first Haiku entry and the person who submits the best Haiku (judged by yours truly) will win an additional 5 points.

ICE CLIMBER GAME Hey everyone and welcome to the ICE CLIMBER GAME! This will work exactly how a typical Hangman/Letter Game functions. Players need to guess what word or phrase is represented by the series of "_", denoting a letter of the word. If there is more than one word, they will be separated by "-". The rules: 1. Each player guesses one letter at a time 2. Players cannot make two consecutive guess posts (but they can post more than once to guess the same word or phrase). 3. You can guess more than once before I post whether your guessed letter is there or not. 4. You must guess a letter before attempting to guess the word or phrase. 5. To make things more…

"There's still something to be learned here, some stone left unturned. When we explore the mind we must always keep in mind that our journeys rarely delve beyond the surface. Who these people, these monsters, are has always been and likely will ever remain a mystery. Such is the nature of our toilsome, often fruitless work. So, I ask you to ponder this question. Can you handle that? Think on it for our special meet tonight. Class dismissed." Dr. Douglas' lecture stuck with me today. He had challenged me with that question. Could I handle it? Could I handle it? I knew the answer already but he didn't. I'd have to show him. In the passenger seat some chatty guy was trying …

http://www.playbuzz.com/jackoneil10/what-is-your-star-wars-personality-type?smff=fb I got The Counselor: INFJ (Obi-Wan Kenobi) Defining Attributes: Complex, Introspective, Caring, Sensitive As an INFJ, you strive for peace and seek to develop and guide others. You value self-control and the pursuit of the greater good. "Counselor" types live their lives with great purpose, and devote themselves to causes they firmly believe in. INFJs are also characterized by their ability to connect with the essence of others - and the innate ability to identify the strengths and weaknesses of others. what do you get?

Happy New Year everyone!!! The question is in what one way would you like to challenge yourself this year? As usual 5 for signing in, 5 for answering the question. I would like to challenge myself to actually study and see what I can achieve if I decide to study instead of reading.

You don´t want to be civies for all your life. You want to earn points and become soldiers. I have some points for you. I think I might have 30? Hm... probably. Maybe... Anyway. If you have joined in the last two months then you can write me a shadow poem and hope that I enjoy them enough to give you 10 points. Post it here. You can make a simple poem that rhymes, a haiku or something more complicated. Know that I´m of the Shadow faction and expect something shadowy and evil. WoT related is always good. Go! And the rest of you.... well, spam my thread. :D
