    We are takign our first vacation in 29 years so we plan on leaving today and will be back when we are either broke and couldn't go no more or to tired and need to sleep in our own beds, at most 3-4 weeks..

  2. I went to Longleat safari park today... it rained from the moment we left the house and didn't stop until we got home, bloody typical! So these are some picture I took :) http://i602.photobucket.com/albums/tt101/crystaltipps88/July171.jpg[/img] http://i602.photobucket.com/albums/tt101/crystaltipps88/July153.jpg[/img] http://i602.photobucket.com/albums/tt101/crystaltipps88/July163.jpg[/img] http://i602.photobucket.com/albums/tt101/crystaltipps88/July135.jpg[/img] http://i602.photobucket.com/albums/tt101/crystaltipps88/July130.jpg[/img] http://i602.photobucket.com/albums/tt101/crystaltipps88/July115.jpg[/img] http://i602.photobucket…

    Hello everyone! I'm a new Novice here, part of House Trehelion. I started reading the WoT in January, and am currently half way through book six (LoC). I look forward to getting to know all of you and becoming part of the Tower! :)

    How are all my Org buds???! :-* :-* :-* :-* :-* :-* :-* Did you miss me?? I've been overseas in Sydney, Australia and Hong Kong. Just got back yesterday and I think I'm over my jet-lag, yay! =D I know you guys threatened me on penalty of death that I should produce pix upon my return, so I've attached some. Sorry if the sizes are off! :D If you're on Facebook, then you probably saw all of these and many many more even before our plane was in the air!! =P 1.

    This is just to let ya'll know that I'm not going to have much access to my computer this weekend because I'm going to have guests. If you have an emergency that can't wait until Sunday night, please check with Verbal32 (the Master at Arms). I should be back in time to do my usual update, though. Ya'll have fun and don't make Verby quit before I get back, ok? *laughs* No, really, I'm serious about that... Ciao!

    And I'll be trying to catch up later today. I've been swamped with 4 website projects at once, and I've been working on those from morning to night for the last several days. I apologize for being not around the last few days as a result, and I'll be working on catching up with everything today. *hugs*

    Well, it took me awhile but I finally had a chance to go over the submissions and, as it turns out (which seems to have happened a lot lately), we have a tie! Our winners for this event are Alanna and el Nyn! I truly did want to limit it to one winner but I just can't because both sent in something for EVERY item asked for and both did a fantastic job of it! Congrats ladies! Here is your reward, compliments of DSage!

    I have received and scored all of the submissions I received and am pleased to announce the winners. In third place with 24 points is Ludmian, esteemed Head of the Brown. Well done Luddy! :) In second place with 33 points is none other than our Blue Head, Daruya! And in first place with 36 points each, we have a tie. Yep, a tie! The winners of the Word Scramble are: Mystica and Alanna Well done Myst and Alanna, great job! As promised here is your signature prize. If you want me to add your name to the sig, just ask me and I'll get that done for you. :)

  12. Welcome to the Blue Ajah's Harry Potter Week! The event described in this posting will take you on a magical hunt! Starting sometime on Sunday (U.S. Central Daylight Time), I will be posting a series of items for which you will then search the internet. They might be pictures, they might be spells, they might be potions . . . For example, I might ask you to find me the recipe/ingredients for a wiggenweld potion (no, that's not one of the scavenger hunt items) or a picture of the Venomous Tentacula (and, not, that's not one either!). Your task is to locate these items online and then send the results to me, Daruya, via PM. Pictures should include a link (URL)…

  13. Ok as , promised a more specific set of rules as to how this will work. :) As I mentioned before this game is a bit of cross between a word scramble and a word search! Throughout the week I will be posting the letters in the Ajah boards and it will be your job to find all the letters, unscramble them into the correct words and submit them to me. The person with the most correct at the end of the week is the winner. Each word will have a specific colour associated with it. So for example I might post in one of the threads: My Warder Sam spent the week posing as Bob the moat monster. and in another thread I might say: I hope all the Aspies are havin…

    Verbal exits the celebration of his raising to full Warder, and makes the long walk to the moat, where he has business at hand. Well, it's more like a saunter than a walk, per se, but who cares? Ok, take two. Verbal exits the celebration of his raising to full Warder, and makes the long saunter to the moat, where he has business at hand. Ya know, on second thought, walk sounds MUCH better than saunter here. Take three. Verbal exits the celebration of his raising to full Warder, and makes the long walk that somewhat resembles a saunter to the moat, where he has business at hand. Ok, that's good. Roll with it. He sits at the edge of the moat, patiently …

    Now you lot *gives the unruly lot the look* keep the flirting in here down. This is for our Sakaea and I have a feeling the lass appreciates a little less of the hip swaying and the lash fluttering. Kapish? Sakaea, this is your very own thread till you get access (if you haven't already) to the inside of the Tower (and afterward too, obviously lol). Them over excited jumpy ones (like I used to be too, btw) can get overwhelming and without wanting to wals right over more laid back people ;) Don't hold it against them though, they're all cute and cuddly and yummy after all. So, maybe a little about you and us now, aye? :D I live in Belgium and work at t…

  25. Started by JenniferL,

    Brandon Sanderson did a Q&A on Twitter today, which was excellent. The only problem is that the transcript is impossible to follow. Would any of you kind souls be willing to go through and match questions with answers? It would be a huge service to everyone, not just Dragonmount, but WoT fans everywhere and SanderFans. http://twitter.com/#search?q=%23tweettheauthor At this point, I would normally make extravagant promises of raising credit to any aspirant who undertook this, but that's above my pay grade right now. But maybe I can work something out with Lor or Verbal. But it really doesn't have to be an aspirant. It can just be anyone with some spare time who …

    I'd like to start my leadership off on the right foot here at the WT Org, and so I've decided to revive a sacred and very solemn tradition.

    ~Lily peeks in the door, sees some familiar faces, smiles, and comes on in~ Hi, everyone. If you know me, I probably need no intro. If you don't, I'm Minuet's sister, Lily. Knowing her, I probably still need no intro. lol What to say about myself? (Don't you just hate thinking of what to say?) I'm a little bit crazy, sometimes a lot crazy. I like to stir things up, but in a fun way - like Min does. What I am NOT is the quiet, obedient girl in the corner. ~grinz~ Oh! And I don't own any flying monkeys ..... but Min shares well with others. ;)

  29. Greetings you all. We were digging the new moat yesterday when an Aes Sedai came by and used the OP with a weave of earth and air to lift a massive amount of earth from the new moat under construction near where novice Damane was digging. When the dust had settled, the new moat was found to be substantially complete and was flooded and connected to the old moat. Bob, the moat monster, did his maiden swim through the connection between the two moats, and swam the length and breadth of the new moat, and declared himself satisfied overall with the new moat. A few parts remain to be dug to bring the entire projct up to his standards. On behalf of the Warder's G…

Tale of Two Ajahs by Kivam The Ajah of Blue and Ajah of Red (I'll tell you quite frankly) are out of their heads To mock them as crazy would in truth be too kind for they are quite loony so out of their minds So utterly nuts so wondrously insane that they've gone all the way round in their brains And the odd effect of this long mental travel is that their reality's begun to unravel So when they're their craziest their most dangerously abnormal you'll find that they use grammar most formal So if you're approached by a Red or even a Blu…
