So what did we get up to in twenny-twelve's last month? Obviously there was no Alpacalypse, as:

 

~ The Tainted Days of Christmas advent calendar ran all through the month to Christmas - check out all the different fantastic surprise tasks one member got to do each day! You have to read about Maw´s arguing voices - Santa vs Lews Therin. :biggrin:This was such a fun game, thanks Leelou and Tina!

 

~ We had a discussion about Random acts of kindness  , modded by the one and only randomh3r0 - thanks! :D

 

~ Basel´s World War II Mafia Game is still running, so we're anticipating the outcome of that!

 

~ deliciously spammy fun abounds as ever, clearly seen by threads such as  The 25 Days of Christmas and I need some chocolate!

Soo January, 2013, hello hello hello! I'm rather looking forward to this new year!! :D Starting well for everyone, I hope?

 

Well we don't really have any BT plans for January yet, just chillin' and slowly sliding into 2013!

 

After Basel's mafia game, Darthe has one in queue! So watch that space!

 

And here’s your monthly..

~ EPIC CHALLENGE UPDATE ~

(As you may remember, after reaching the milestone record of 100,000 posts in one thread in June, our new goal (as well as getting 200,000 posts in that thread too now), is to TOP the other two really active boards, in OVERALL REPLIES! The WT was 'defeated' in October 2012, now only General Discussion remains to be conquered ...slowly but surely we’re closing the gap!)

 

As of NOW:

 

General Discussion has upped to: 613,734 total replies[last month: 608,587]

VS.

Black Tower SG, which now has 474,070 total replies [last month: 462,672]

 

 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

We do not have a comic to feature this month, but I've found something to do that more than justice! This is a VERY new civvie's BlackTowerified take on The Highwayman by Johnny Cash...UHMAZZAH!! Everyone put yo' hands together for DJSTIPE!

 

 

 

I was an Asha'man, Tarmon Gai'don on the mind
Pain in the Aes Sedai

Many a Trolloc fell when I destroyed their Fade

Many a Seanchan died upon my saidin blade

Fought Dumai's Wells long before they say I died
Yet I am still alive.

I was a Swordmaster; I was born upon the tide
My Sailmistress I'd abide.
We sailed our vessel through the Bay of Tanchico
I went aloft when our Windfinder sent a blow
And when the yards broke off they say that I got killed
But I am living still.

I was a builder from the Stedding of Shangtai
Sung wood Andoran pride

I left Caemlyn from what was an Ogier grove
Through the Ways where the Black Wind always blows
They say I'm lost to the madness of that sound
But I am still around,

'cuz the Wheel spins me back around

and around and around

and around and around

I'll fight the dark one out there beyond the Blight
And when I reach the other side
I'll join my brothers in the Wolf Dream if I can
Perhaps I may become an Asha'man again
Light, I could even have Lews Therin in my brain
But I will remain

And I'll be back again
and again and again
and again and again
The wheel spins me back again
and again and again

and again and again

    On current speed it's going to take 28 months to top General Discussion...

     

    Surely we can do better than that.

    Thanks for the mention also. Very appropriate colours - although is Turin grey or silver lol

     

     

    Someone saying I'm old? Lol...

     

    Midnight Blue us always preferable.

     

    I had just got to wondering whether you switched WT paths and joined the Grays without anyone noticing. ;)
