The Black Tower

Welcome to the second edition of The Tainted Days of Christmas - A Black Tower Advent Calendar! Last year we had a lot of fun with the advent calendar so I thought we should have another one this year. This year we will find a new ornament to hang on the Christmas tree each day. I promise you that it will be a tainted tree! Every day a person will get a task. It´s a secrete and random task. It can be an easy task or a difficult one - you never know. Each task is worth 10 points. You can all sign up for one day. Pick a date or let me pick one for you. I know that not all of you celebrate Christmas but that shouldn´t stop you from joining …

One of mine:

Welcome to the madhouse, Paetram Mondora. Is Paet okay? Your name is just too long. If I understood it right, Theo has made you sign up. Well done, Theo! You can have a brownie! So sit down, eat some tainted brownies and tell us all about yourself. How long have you been reading WoT? Do you have a favourite asha´man? Do you hear voices? Are they nice? You will soon get the key to the rest of the tower. Until then, hang out here and have fun. (And remember to sign in the roll call thread.)

Are you a visitor that wonders what faction you would belong to? Are you a soldier that wonders what faction to pic? Or are you an old member that wonders if you picked the right faction? Then we have the test for you! Let me present our old faction tests in a new form. What faction does your soul belong to? TMD has made this test, which is a combination of our previous test. Thanks to: TMD - programming Ithi - design Tress - questions Locke - questions Tina - questions and project leader If you want to - let us know what result you got. As always - May the taint be with you!

Go to the lounge and sign up for the OP Battle class. You get POINTS! I'll be starting the class in about 1-2 weeks.

nerp (that means hi)

Come one come all!! I bring you the opportunity to bestow Birthday wishes and Spanks upon our own mysterious Shadowy Sith Ithi... She might even make an appearance if you behave yourselves. Step right up and start up the well wishes. Spanks are optional and to be given at your own risk HAPPY BIRTHDAY ITHI!!!!!

Mostly the last half. But the full song is worth listening.

Christmas is a time for giving so here in the Black Tower we can hope to look forward to many things including:

The asha´mans in WoT can control the elements, or at least use them for their own purpose. The weather is really tough to manipulate though. Yet, I think that is something that most people would like to be able to control. During my time here at DM I have read a lot of reports about storms, tornados, forest fires, flooding and snowstorms. Depending on where you live you can experience a lot of bad weather. This month you get 5 points for signing in and 5 additional points if you tell us about what experiences you have when it comes to extreme weather. I´m lucky to live in a place where we rarely have any natural disasters. I think that the snow is what gets…

forever. Wrote my last exam yesterday. Yay!

...if you can make me laugh. This is not exactly an easy task, so challenge is on!

One person I know from an FB group has recently turned a published writer and is offering her book for free for 28 and 29, ie, today and tomorrow. It would really mean much if you could buy her book. As a new author finding market is tough and well you just can't say no to free books. And to make more people buy it, I will divide the rest of my points for this month among all those who buy it.

We have a new civy. Please welcome Aida to the Tainted Tower and show her what Taint can do. So, Aida who is your favourite Asha'man? Do you do the same thing again and again and expect different results? Can you bake brownies?

Have a nice day, eat, drink and be merry. And we have to thank you for bringing the Turkey over, though we have it at Christmas

What did you think... As my daughter said "Best Episode EVER!"

Been away for a few days and they aren't many threads that are new... The BT is slacking *sets fire to the closest civie* it's getting chilly here

Our Kaylee is getting married on Saturday, November 9th, and the Black Tower wants to wish her a crazy tainted wonderful wedding! To that end, you are all invited to join us as we drive the bride crazy wish her well with this Bridal Shower, Black Tower style! Oh no, Kaylee! It's almost time for the wedding and a bubble of evil has undone all your careful plans! Everything you need for the wedding is scattered around the Black Tower, though, what a relief! Your first task is to find the following items hidden - all are within threads on the main Black Tower board from October and November. 1. Wedding dress 2. Shoes 3. Bridal bouquet 4. Ring f…

No, it´s not the end. It´s our newest member. I´m pretty sure that Ragnarok has no idea what he is doing here but that goes for most of us even though we have been here for years. So join me in the usual welcome with a lot of tainted brownies.

How to serve the Taint: By posting funny pics? By speaking about the weather? By sharing funny clips? By listening to the taint? (And replying when asked to) By spamming of course... You are welcome to spam around but we could make it more tematic: The first topic is Lazy - jokes,songs, pics, your pics, everything counts. We might think of an award if you behave

Cause I didn't make this thread sooner. I am off for now, but spam away to your heart's content!

Someone asked my biology teacher a question, and she said she'd look it up. The next day, she tells us, that it is simply not known... First time that I can remember that what we are taught at school is at the edge of what is known...

Soooo, I want to read Allegiant BUT I'm lazy to reread the last two books cuz I didn't like them that much. LOL So anyways 10 pts to whomever can message me a quick summary of the last two books. THANKSSSS

please lets all show him a good old fashioned BT welcome, make with the brownies, the spam, the taint (yup, AJ, nowhere on DM can you wallow in taint as freely as you can at the BT ), and the distractions while I have his microchip implanted so he can't dodge away to Canada. oooooh I like this new power
