Important Stuff

Konnichi wa, meat puppets. Are you having fun?

Well, this has been a most interesting and maniacal week. For starters, the Independence Games are almost upon us, so keep your eyeballs locked onto the DB News page to find out when they're coming (oh, and when they do arrive, participate in my event if it's in the DB selection ^^) Also on the competition front, we have a ridiculously large amount of comps going on at the moment... Xizor is running his 'Big Twist' competition, where all you have to do is write a run-on post with a dastardly, shocking twist in it. That nets you a medal, and makes you Xizor's Black Guard. Then there's the comps being run by Muz- 'Settling the Tab' and 'No Longer', details of both can be found on the competitions page. And then there is my own, beloved, Operation: Frozen Fortress. I have to say I am very impressed by the reaction that people have given me to this- lots of posts already, so many that I had to pause the flow of writing for the ACC event ^^ Oh, I added in a post leading up to that as well as the 'please don't post for now' marker, so check out the forum to see who you're going to be fighting.

If you need to clarify points in a post, dude, PM the person you have an issue with, 'kay? I'll have the post deleted for continuity issues.

But yeah, the ACC should hopefully be coming up as soon as possible. You shall be informed of when that is. And also, as to rewards... at the moment (as far as I know) Mr. Khan the MAA is getting in touch with Jac himself to find out whether I can award second level Crescents to the top three of this competition. He seemed very impressed by the outline that I gave him, so I'm hopeful for some biiig Crescents for you peeps. There's another incentive to participate... Enjoy, kiddiewinks.

Also, another biig competition for you to enter (and people complain there's nothing to do... feh.) is the Sadow Bar Brawl! Those damn Sithies and Obeliskans over in Ludo Kressh have insulted the honour (and the liver capacity) of Marka Ragnos for the last time! I present to you a recording made by one of our security droids of a conversation between two of them.

SERVANT: "Uh, Master Bob, sir, what shall I do with these twenty crates of whisky?"

BOB: "Oh, just chuck them in the HLK cantina."

SERVANT: "But sir, half of these crates are for Marka Ragnos as well..."

BOB: "HMR? HAAAaaAAahhaHAhahaa!! Those pasty Krath don't need whisky! Now put it all in our cantina before I blow your head off."

There you have it. We are being grossly underestimated by most of Ludo Kressh. It is time to show them we mean business! With the jagged end of a bottle! Details will be coming out in Bob's next report. ^_^

And that's all the news I can think of for today. Of course, if I've missed something huge and catastrophic, just scream 'Maaaannnjiiiiiiii' at me and I'll update ya.

Medals, Promotions, Random Gubbins

Interesting... lots of medals/promotions/random gubbins in my inbox as always. Excellent...

Medals: Kat Pridemore obtained herself some Clusters of Fire! Yayayaa! She also nabbed a Crescent with an Emerald Star for second in my last Aediles Fortnightly comp. W00t.

Alexandria (known colloquially as Lexy) got herself a Crescent with an Emerald Star for second place in the CNS Sentence Run-on comp. Woo!

Link got herself a Crescent with a Topaz Star for third place in the same comp. Haii!

And now for promotions... APP Gllen Nadis got promoted to NOV! Then transported over to Ludo Kressh. Darn. Because before that he'd passed the ICQ Studies and HTML Basics courses in the Shadow Academy. Yaay!

Voort went on a course binge and passed the MSN Messenger, HTML Basics and the Test of Lore...uh...tests. Yay Voort!

Also, we got a new member (who didn't just vanish to HLK =D)... please welcome TaDor Quith to HMR! Booze is in the usual place... just follow the crowds of drunken Krathlings to find it ^_^

The Weird and Wonderful World of your Quaestor...

Better than usual, certainly. The week we just had was my 'evil' week at college (since we run on a two-week timetable, in one week (week 2) I have lots and lots of free periods, but in week 1 I have very few... and I even have days where I have five lessons! Shock horror! How did I survive that for five years at high school? =D), but due to bank holidays and something called 'progress review day', I had Thursday and Friday (and I'm going to have Monday as well) off college. Yayayayaaa! So Thursday, I went to see the Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy (sorry Xi =P) with a friend, then went back to her place to stay the night wink wink Then, on Friday I went back into Manchester to hang with some other people and just wander around spending waaaay too much money on DVD's and CD's and manga and stuff. Oh, and I found out how much it'll cost for me to transfer geetar music from my geetar onto my computer- £100 for a nice little Line 6 guitar port complete with some sw33t software that lets you put loads of fx on things. Once I get hold of that, watch for a nice FF7 Highwind Theme rock remix from me on http://www.ocremix.org (well, if it gets approved, that is) ^_^ So yeah. Good week. And finally, I have only one thing to say... DON'T PANIC!

In Conclusion...

So, yeah. Lots and lots and lots and lots of competitions and stuff to enter... lots going on. Get busy busy busy! ^_^

Sayonara!
