As Christmas comes to a close here in Taiwan, Merry Christmas to all the Moot

Grey_Wolf · 12-31-2011, 01:18 PM

Happy New Year to you all here on the Moot! Wish you health and happiness for the next year! best Gw

Midge · 01-04-2012, 12:23 AM

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...

***Earniel*** · 01-04-2012, 07:06 AM

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.

Vacation! Going to Austria to ski for a week

As of yesterday, I have been a mooter for exactly A DECADE.

So! Break open the booze cabinets and roll out the casks!

All drinks are on me!

***Varnafindë*** · 01-14-2012, 07:27 AM

Congratulations, Eärniel!

*celebrates*

**Mari** · 01-14-2012, 07:42 AM

Congrats! *has a mug of milk on Earn*
What? It's lunch time here. >_<

Willow Oran · 01-14-2012, 09:24 AM

Congrats, Earn!

*clutches tea*

It's about an hour till the crack of dawn over here... morning shifts. Oi.

WOOHOO!!! You've joined me in the Decade category.

Your walking cane and motorized scooter are in the lobby. Try not to break anything during the party.

Get off my lawn!

I mean, right. Thanks, young whipper-snapper.

Now get off my lawn! *waves walking stick menacingly*

***Jonathan*** · 01-14-2012, 04:24 PM

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

Yeah, now I'm part of the very exclusive club of Entmoot Old Geezers!

Oh wait, that didn't come out quite right...

Oh well, in one year you'll be an Entmoot Old Geezer too!

My sister would approve, she works at one of the brewery's offices.

Oh darn, if I had known there had to be speeches, I'd had kept mum.

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?

Grey_Wolf · 01-15-2012, 10:31 AM

Well Im soon to join that exclusive club as well. I'll be an old geezer in a couple of months too.

"And we're back on M.O.O.T. 102,2 with the Mooters playing this Morgoth tune as celebratory song for us DECADEnt Olde Geezers here..."

Here we are!
The sun is shining now
We have fun - and we dance
And we can see our system grow
No more tears, no life crisis
Our spirit it rises high
It's easy, oh so easy to get the paradise at half-price

So fantastic, oh so beautiful
Bright coloured is the scene
So fantastic, oh so beautiful
We're dreaming, dreaming to feel free

Enthusiasm on the list
We can reach the peak point now
Gravity - just a word - right!
We're proud to be part of this show
Gamble, gamble get your cards for
The ultimate universal prize
Hurry up, just hurry up, to join the army
Of the lucky ones

So fantastic, oh so beautiful
Bright coloured is the scene
So fantastic, oh so beautiful
We're dreaming, dreaming to feel free

Lets taste this decade of happiness
Let it take our self control
Illusions get reality-sized
And save us from the big black hole

So fantastic, oh so beautiful
Bright coloured is the scene
So fantastic, oh so beautiful
We're dreaming, dreaming to feel free

This fantastic decade - yes!
This fantastic decade - yes!
This fantastic decade - yes!
This fantastic decade - yes!

Acalewia · 01-16-2012, 08:08 PM

Meh. Still a few years before I hit Old Geezer status

***Earniel*** · 01-16-2012, 08:34 PM

Maybe go for Semi-old Geezer or Not Quite That Old Geezer in the mean-time?

Nice to see you drop in again.

Your title has been appropriately adjusted.

... don't kill me. You can always change it back. I DIDN'T DO IT. IT WAS RIAN. I SWEAR! *runs*
