So... Christmas at the 'Moot this year was quite understated... last year we had a rogue Santa running around, a Christmas tree competition AND an RPG thread involving Christmas/Yule and Ringwraiths...

Well, last time I checked The Witch King was still moping because his invasion went awry, Nazgûl #3 still hadn't mastered enough computer skills to hack the Entmoot colours and Khamûl was last seen wasted on eggnog.
Could be a while before we see them again.

Wow, that's a neat feat Eärniel! And you're still one of the most active members on the board. Definitely worth celebrating and drinking to (now, gimme my Stella Artois)!
How about a few words about what the Moot has meant to you throughout the years? Hm, I'm a bit of an oldbie as well it seems. As of Tuesday, it'll be exactly one year before it's my turn to celebrate a decade of mooting

Oh wait, that didn't come out quite right... Oh well, in one year you'll be an Entmoot Old Geezer too! Quote:

Erm, lemme think... the Entmoot, the Entmoot has been for me ... a great big time sink, if we're honest. But no regrets! I learned role playing here, and subsequently story writing, I discovered so much more books apart from LoTR and the Hobbit. And it's been a frigging big part of my adult life, if you think about it, considering I have never been absent for more than six weeks. So, um, up to the next decade?

Maybe go for Semi-old Geezer or Not Quite That Old Geezer in the mean-time?
Nice to see you drop in again.
