The Black Tower

Won't have to worry about an avatar. :) Also thanks admins for fixing the names.

Seeing as how I'm getting a ton of heat for my policy of allowing the Social Groups to "police themselves" when it comes to drama within mafia games not on the main board, I've decided to take a firm stance that I unfortunately must extend to all relevant Social Groups (ones that host games). Until further notice, no mafia games are to be played outside of the dedicated main mafia board. The reason is, I have a usergroup set up that I can restrict people from playing mafia as needed without impacting their ability to partake it other aspects of DM. This is only in place on the main board due to how sub-boards work and how access controls work on the site. I apol…

Welcome! Have a seat, have some of our very special Tainted Brownies, and please tell us about yourself. Where are you from? Who's your favorite Asha'man? What's your favorite food?

LAST TIME ON THE ULTIMATE SHOWDOWN Turin: HEALERS DOWN! Hally: NEED A REZ! Lenlo: OUT OF MANA! ALL: AHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!! AND NOW, BACK TO DM MAFIAMANIA 2017 Racoom: VEGETA, YOU THINK THAT JUST BECAUSE YOU'RE THE PRINCE OF ALL SAIYANS, YOU'RE THE BEST THERE IS AT WHAT YOU DO BUT LET RACOOM TELL YOU SOMETHIN BROTHER, YOU AINT NO WOLVERINE AND YOU AINT GOT WHAT IT TAKES TO STEP UP TO A FIVE TIME CHAMPION!

WE'LL LOOK AT WHERE THEY ARE NOW. DEAD! YOU TALK ABOUT YOUR LEGENDS AND YOUR WARRIOR RACE, AND…

Had Lasik done today. Wasn't nearly as bad as they made it out to be

Because I am hungry And because I needed to mention food.

Because I am hungry And because I needed to mention food.

Welcome to a White and Black Tower game. It´s time for an elimination game, and to honour our guests our theme will be Best Aes Sedai. If you haven´t played this game before it´s basically about trying to kill everyone except for your favourite Aes Sedai. You decide what "best" means to you. Maybe it´s the most interesting Aes Sedai, the coolest Aes Sedai or the strongest Aes Sedai. I have picked the characters that are most mentioned in the books. (I might have forgot one or two, who knows?) I´ve only picked characters that were Aes Sedai at the start of the books. (So no Nynaeve, Teodrin etc.) This is how to play. When it´s your turn you can "heal" an Aes S…

Vampire! It is known.

Apparently Pandora keeps track of how much time I listened to my Heavy Metal Station. What's 986 divided by 60?

Autumn is almost here on my side of the globe. My question for you is what is the best with autumn? And can anyone tell me why there are two names in English - autumn and fall? The best thing for me is that it´s getting darker and colder. Then it´s much more accepted to stay inside under a blanket and read all day. :D

The Taint affects us all. Embrace it.

The lure of chaos and madness has drawn another member to the Black Tower.... Excellent! I present you with DEATH BY CHOCOLATE BROWNIES. Eat up, the tainted brownies help you get accustomed to channeling saidin. It is known. So. Tell us about your insanity. Is it genetic or environmentally caused? What are the voices in your head telling you to do right now? How long have you been a rabbit? I can assume your favorite WoT character (HOW DO I DO THIS? I AM PSYCHIC!)... Tell us about your favorite Asha'man! There may be a slight delay gaining access to the private boards whilst we go on a Lady Dragon hunt, then send her forth to poke an ewok.…

What is one cliche/trope that you have seen used too much but can't get tired of? 5 points for signing in and 5 for answering the above question. For me, it is the villain turning out to be a close relative, usually father, of the main character.

The Taint affects us all. Embrace it.

Yup, holidays without internet and introduction week on the university are over, so I finally got both the ability and time again to be here!

August is here. Let us talk about... ...animals. Do you have any favourite animals?

Question: Which colour goes best with black? 5 points for signing in, 5 for answering. I think white goes well with black.

Just recently you stood watching this "Aes Sedai Daycare Center" and the kids playing, but now you realise that you are actually one of the kids. There are other kids everywhere and older ladies with nice shawls. Suddenly something hit you in the head and you fall to the ground. It hurts but luckily you are not bleading. You look around and see some kids running around the corner of the building. When you run after them there is no one there. Who was it? You must find out so that you can tell the Aes Sedai. Welcome to the WoT Kids mafia! Remember that the scenes are only for flavor, there are no hidden clues. This a no roles game, which means that there will only b…

Can't sleep. Worked 12 hours today in the sun. You'd think I'd be exhausted. But nooooooooo. Stupid brain won't shut off. Any remedies you guys have? Besides that weird tea and more booze.

July was far, far too quiet... so the Tainted Times took a month off to let you all catch up. Without further ado... Your BLACK TOWER NEWS. Because yay! NEW ARRIVALS Another three brave and crazy individuals joined our ranks in August... Pageboy popped in mid-month to align with the saidin wielders... Technically a return after an extreeeeemely long absence, Nynaeve decided to give the other side of the Source a whirl... And finally, Gentled Ben stopped lurking in the corners of the practice yard and stepped forward for training. Good on ya, friend. PROMOTIONS Stay tuned! With the return of our Lady Dragon after a sojourn without internet…

It´s been a bit quiet in here lately so I thought we could play a game. But not a game that demands a lot of energy because lazyness is a virtue after all. :D We pick a category and then we take turns posting things in that category, the first one starts with A, next one with B etc. The one who posts Z can then choose a new category. For example: Category: WoT characters A - Aviendha B - Bael .... Z - Zemaille (and then change to a new category)

*calls for Nynaeve to heal him* While we wait.... help yourself to some of the Tower's world-famous tainted brownies: Welcome to the saidin-channeling (*cough*better*cough*) tower! Three in one week, we are ON A ROLL! Tell us how you were captured - i mean, attracted? to join us! Are we pretty? Fun? Does someone have blackmail photos? Do you have a favorite Asha'man? Why are you staring at me?

Go see it. Good movie.

EEEEEEEEE GUYS WE GOT ANOTHER ONE. *clears throat* I mean, greetings, friend! Take a seat! Have some brownies! Welcome to the least sane place on Dragonmount. Clearly, the voices in your head have led you to your kindred spirits... tell us about yourself! How did you find the Wheel of Time? When did the madness begin to overtake you? Who is your favorite Asha'man? (Androl, is it? You can tell us.)

What are you doing here? I guess some of you have eaten too many tainted brownies and are hallucinating? Maybe some of you have used a portal stone by accident and found yourself in this bizarre world? Or maybe this is just a dream? Anyway. You have a big building in front of you. There is a sign that says “Aes Sedai Daycare Center”. Outside there are children playing. You see a boy who is making wolves out of pine cones. Now he is tossing one of them in the air and shouts “Fly Hopper, fly!”. You see an Aes Sedai in a green dress who are very angry at some aiel kids, who holds toy bows in their hands. “We have talked about this before. You can`t undress other kids. The…

I have never seen a single Cartoon Network episode (in any series/shows) that I like. I don´t like their style at all. But my daughter found out about Steven Universe and wents though all of the episodes in a few weeks. She absolutely loves them. So I said that I would give it a chance. At first I thought it was okay but then I came to like it as well, and now I have watched all of the episodes. I´m not as obsessesed as she is but it was enough for me to want to learn more about the world, history and characters. There are some kids shows that I really like, especially Avatar: The Last Airbender and Avatar: Legend of Korra, and I don´t think SU is as good as those, but …

Welcome, welcome! Have a seat, and some of our famous Tainted Brownies and please tell us about yourself. So, who's your favorite Asha'man? Do you read other fantasy series as well? Where are you from? Also, what do you prefer to be called, considering your nickname is far too long to write out? Oh, and don't worry about the brownies, we've got a replenishing weave on them to make sure the Shadowies can't steal them all. You'll also get a PM from our Social Group Leader (Panchi) soon that will explain you some stuff about the Black Tower. To be fair I don't remember myself what is in it exactly, but if there's something unclear people are always ready to …

Alright. Attempt number 2. So I've had 1 cig today, with 1 left in this pack. Optimal goal being I smoke this last stogie, and start fresh Monday morning. Lungs, good luck.
