The Black Tower

In the Black Tower, the voices are your friends.

  1. So the last time I wrote something for English I posted it here, and I don't know if anyone enjoyed it but no one complained about it >.> and I think I got some people interested in this one That last one was for class, but this one is for a school contest, open topic, only real restriction is that is must be over 800 words. I'm not looking for much out of this, if you like it you can tell me and if you don't then tell me that as well, but if you do either please try and come up with a reason why you find my writing good or bad, so this exercise might be helpful to me. or you could just read this and not post, that works too, not that it helps me too much. S…

    We havnt done this in awhile. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4ADh8Fs3YdU Empty spaces - what are we living for Abandoned places - I guess we know the score On and on, does anybody know what we are looking for... Another hero, another mindless crime Behind the curtain, in the pantomime Hold the line, does anybody want to take it anymore The show must go on, The show must go on Inside my heart is breaking My make-up may be flaking But my smile still stays on. Whatever happens, I'll leave it all to chance Another heartache, another failed romance On and on, does anybody know what we are living for? I guess I'm learning, I must be warmer now I'll soon b…

    So I saw this somewhere, don't remember if it was on DM or not. Basically the point of the game is to ask a question with two equally alluring, or equally undesirable answers. Example: Would you rather win a billion dollars, or find your true soul mate and live paycheck to paycheck. Ok, so I'll start this with: Would you rather get an acceptance letter from Hogwarts, or from the White/Black Tower?

  4. Did anyone here write the code for DoreSaidin, if so can you PM, I have a few questions and errors I found.

  5. Thud. Baguette. Thud. Thud. THUDD. Smoke and ashes fade away and through the falling debris a only slightly terrifying figure gallops in on a llamacorn. Slo-mo, of course. The red-eyed, horned llama comes to a stop, snorting and stamping the ground as its rider surveys the furry beastie waiting by a savagely burnt piece of bamboo. Deeeeaarly betainted we are all- wait, wrong occasion. Oh the ‘busy duties’ of a Storm Leader… a.k.a “make this short, I have a pressing appointment for a meeting with Mr. Popcorn to discuss the urgent matter of Stack of DVDs” ;P So. Gather round lads and lasses, ga…

    Ok I feel like being (somewhat) lazy. I need a link to the last 6 months of roll calls. Whoever links them all in this thread first gets 10 points. Easy right? Well get on it! :D

  8. Sit back and relax for now. Your training will begin in earnest soon. We are all weapons here, and slightly mad or evil - take your pick. Eat Brownies, or ask for a lovely english cream tea with Scones and Jam, we cater to all appetites, and then tell us about your journey to find us here at the Black Tower. How did you come up with your DM name and who is your favourite Asha'man?

    I wanted to see if everyone who came here could say something good about the opposite faction, genuinely. No Lighties are better for blowing up, or anything like that. I wonder if we are able to do that. For example, Lighties are great since they are really tainty and spammy due to the lack of protection from the DO, they have a free, nice attitude. Your turn!

  13. So, based on the hijacking of a different thread, I'm starting this. For the love that is music, amazing bass solos, guitar gods, and any other cool music you find, just post it up here! I'm gonna start it off with a vid from the other thread I love:

Cake or Pie? 4. Ninja or Pirate? 5. And finally, would you like a taint brownie? They are delish. Also as a side note I shall be keeping track of peoples answers.

    I have to put together the calendar for my department and I just seen that there is a mtg. of a bunch of execs with The DO. That's what it says. DO Meeting. 11:00 AM. He has broken free and is planning his world domination through the food service industry. I get it now! He is planning on infusing the taint into ALL our foods. O_O it's finally happening. If you do not want any taintiness do not eat at any US sporting venue, airport, national park or a few casinos we manage. The end is NIGH! Rejoice and despair! The End is NIGH!!!

    Attention, all you slackers out there (and you know who you are)! How many times has your pink bottom (and GPA) been saved due to multiple-choice questions on your exams? I think fondly of the many delicious hours I was able to party and/or sleep in, because I knew my time was better spent doing almost anything than cramming for a test. You can always camouflage your ignorance with a little quick thinking, logic, caffeine, and creativity (providing you eat a complete and proper breakfast, of course). Also, never underestimate the power of a little sincere flattery. Now, if your professor can come up with questions like these, you (being so much smarter) can too. …

  26. So today I converted Tinie Tempah's Wonderman into Slenderman. Wonderman is a rap type of song so it's got a lot of lyrics, so I hope I stuck close enough to keep you all happy. A little backstory on Slenderman though. Slenderman is a little bit of an internet phenomenon, he was thought up on the Something Awful boards in a competition where users would manipulate photos to make something seem supernatural and then post the pics and a little witness account/story on supernatural boards to see what the response was. One of the ones that really took off was Slenderman. As you can tell from the name, Slenderman is described as being very tall, usually depict…

  30. Ashaman Kovan has finally ventured into the Social Groups, and has chosen our tainty abode as his first SG home. We are honored! Help yourself to the brownies... They're extra good because of the taint. Now, for those who haven't seen you around in other areas of the forums, tell us a bit about yourself. Who's your favorite Asha'man in the books? Where do you hide the bodies of those you murder in the D&D forums? And if you were forced at gunpoint to streak across the field at a major sporting event, which team's game would you grace with your performance?
