The White Tower & Warders

This is for Elgee . . . Please feel free to chime in! Dearest Mother, A couple of us decided that we needed to do this . . . For all the shenanigans you put up with from your exuberant AS, Accepteds, Novices, Warders and warder aspies, thank you. For the tireless and often thankless effort you put into the WTSG, thank you. We appreciate all that you do so very much so we decided to take this opportunity, on this very special day on which we recognize our mothers, to recognize our online WT mom. THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH FOR ALL YOU DO! And a very happy Mother's Day!

Sooo this happened in the "You know you might be a bit too much into WoT when..." thread; 602. When you think that NeverTameExceptWhenTheMoNisLooking should post said playlist. And since I have a bit of a perfectionist streak, I couldn't just post the random collection of songs of various genres for a miscellaneous collection of characters... Who listens to a playlist that mixes Marina and the Diamonds with Emperor? So I picked a group of characters that seemed the easiest to make a consistent, listenable playlist for -- the Forsaken. And the genre is "mostly metal" and I don't know how many here listen to metal but... anyway. Without further ado. We …

My nephew is going to study there for 2 years.

For those of you who don't know, I'm in uni double majoring in Mild-Moderate & Moderate-Intensive Special Education. In our last semester, every future teacher has an internship. At the beginning of this semester, I found out about an internship opportunity for the Mild-Moderate Degree. It's at a Catholic school in BRAZIL! I'd be there next spring, leaving in late January/early February and getting back in May. I applied a couple of weeks ago, and had my interview two days ago. I find out in the next two weeks! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA I MIGHT BE GOING TO BRAZIL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Just wanted to let you guys know there was a tornado just west of me about 20 minutes earlier. There's some new rotation forming, but not strong enough for a tornado yet. I'll keep you updated.

It's that time again! The time for foolishness, when the Tower is turned on it's head and Fools call the shots! Please come by the Tar Valon board and enjoy our games, pranks, and silliness! Join in on the fun, you'll be glad you did! The Festival of Fools is a time when Aes Sedai can relive their Accepted/Novice days, Der'Manshima can relive their Algai/Mansima days, and Novices/Accepted/Algai/Manshima can frolic around as full ranked Aes Sedai and Der'Manshima! Anyone may participate in the rank change, just remember that the rank change is only for the FoF event threads and not anywhere else in the Tower. Misheru has made some wonderful siggies for this purpose below…

Anyone know where I can download Season 3? (I think I saw the first two seasons ... I can remember wat I saw last, but not exactly where in the series that was ... lol)

I had a few things happen and ended up banished from the internet and all of the nerdy geeky goodness. Really REALLY sorry about all of that. I just did get back online and am trying to catch up with things.... so..... hi....again.

Sooo... this is what Facebook thinks of us apparently.

I need them. I'm planning on taking a trip or two sometime in the near future, and I'd like some pointers before I blunder off to a foreign land. Pretty please?

Anyone in here by chance play Clash of Clans on their smart phone? I just started and am addicted!

I'm officially dead. It's 2am in Nya time, a time no good can come of being awake anyway. But tonight - well, tonight was to get more intense than ever before. It started with only a little bit of Hufflepuff House Pride, and this: Well...yes. But wait - it got better. naturally, by this point I was could hardly breathe. I think I woke up my grandparents when I fell out of bed convulsing, a floor below. My bad. Then this happened, and I blew it. Do not mourn me, for I'm writing to you from Fandom Heaven. And am now off to watch the rest of their creations.

Unicef has launched a website (http://tap.unicefusa.org/) wich had a very easy and yet very good way of helping out someone who needs it! If you go into the website on your phone (or, I'm guessing, tablets for those who have that), then every minute you don't touch your phone, will give a day of clean water to a child that needs it. Such an easy way to do something good! Mine has been running for 10 minutes now (I never use my phone when I'm at home unless I'm playing Sims on the computer and need to check mafia games :P ), and it feels quite good to be able to help someone by doing something so simple!

Well it's been a while since I was around these parts! How's everyone been doing? Good to see you all again! It sure is good to be back, there has been a lot going on since last time I was here & I'll be able to stay around a lot longer this time!

WELCOME ALL To the 2014 Edition of the Red Ajah's International Women's Week! Our older members will know what this event is all about but for our recent additions to the Group allow me to elaborate. As you may or may not know the world celebrates International Woman's Day every year on 8th of March. Being the Ajah of Equality (amongst other thing), the Red Ajah has been an advocate for this event ever since 2007 when we worked on the concept of implimenting this event as one of our yearly Group Events. Over the years some people have commented about the use of these events and whether it wasn't outdated. Fair questions and if you live in an ar…

The last 3 day weekend we had, we decided to drive to Arizona to see my oldest son before he transfers to his new Air Force Base in the Pit of Doom, New Mexico. We left right after work on Friday, planned to drive some hours, stay in a hotel and finish the drive the next morning. When we arrived, I was only carrying a few things but dropped my iPhone out of the car, was desperately looking for it when I realized I dropped it in the parking lot. It had been run over, it's bent and I had to get a new screen cover and get it cleaned up but at least it still works. A scant few minutes later, outside the hotel elevator, I dropped my new Galaxy Tablet out of my pur…

Most men who live with cats are sensitive sorts but some are definitely... off. Meet the men who live alone with cats.

Friendship Week from 9 to 16 February! Please join us in this event at Red boards.

Greetings friends, colleagues, fellow fans, lurkers, RPers, Biffins, Boffins and Sackville-Bagginses... Wait, no... That's a different speech entirely. As you may or may not know, each year Dragonmount holds a very special awards ceremony all of it's own. They are called The Empys, and they give each and every one of you the chance to reward other members and groups in this little community of ours for their activity throughout the year here at DM, by nominating and voting for them in a variety of categories (twenty-seven, to be precise). They are all heroes in their own right with what they add to our enjoyment of this site... And that is why our theme for the whole …

Hello everyone! It's time to post the sign-ups for the Pictophone game. You don't know what that is? Well, it's like the game "telephone," except, we use pictures instead of words. One player is given a phrase, and has to draw it for their teammate. That person, then has to guess the phrase, and send it to the next person on their team. That teammate takes the phrase and draws a picture for the next player. And so on, and so forth. Sound like fun? Then sign up by posting below! The game will start on January 17th. We need at least eight players (2 teams of 4), but the more, the merrier! If you have any questions about how to play, post them below, or PM…
