Well, we've seen how you've jinxed things up, Mari

. If you'd said nothing we had fallen into a routine of nice meals. Probably served by Peter the Elf.

For the sole purpose of monitoring your prisoners no doubt!

Please make Mari wear a [size=80]monkeysuit![/size=80]

It's her birthday, after all

That was a little fishy. Maybe she wants to assassinate me? Maybe you guys sent her? I haven't seen her exactly get freaked out by this take-over. I get the feeling she falls into line pretty quickly!

Hah, unlikely! He was for throwing you to Old Man Willow from the start. I bet you signed that document yourself, your misquoting days are catching up with you, hector A.K.A. The ORC!.

Name calling is so undignified

, especially for evil admins/mods.

Well, to be fair, the food is passable when the Hobbit prisoners are on kitchen duty. They can do amazing things with mushrooms, seen as it is the only thing that grows in the camp prison caves... Everything is pretty amazing next to a crust of dry bread, eh?

*quickly hides her copy of 'Divide and Conquer: Seventeen Tips for Novice Dictators'* Oh yes, you've got to be careful with that one. How well do you know her, anyway?

She even speaks the same language as one of the mods, you know.

**Mari** · 06-16-2012, 04:13 PM

Oh, so we're going to play this game eh? I didn't intend to let this so called takeover bother me as long as I could still do my thing, but slander is just out of line Miss Frog-loving Evilness! Besides, if anyone in this place is evil, it's gonna be me. Now where did I leave my sharks with lasers... In Nauti's tank maybe?

AikanÃ¡ro · 06-16-2012, 04:30 PM

Old Man Willow? Cute rabbits in prison? Sharks with lasers?

What has happened here?

***VarnafindÃ«*** · 06-16-2012, 09:19 PM

Read the special announcement which also has its own thread - there's been a certain change in the power structure of the board this week.

I love it when a plan comes together

That's...one way of putting it.

If someone's going to rule the Entmoot, they really ought to do so with a platform of liberty and justice and shiny things for all. Otherwise they're just wasting their time.

***VarnafindÃ«*** · 06-17-2012, 06:46 AM

I'm all for the shiny things. (I'm a Noldo, after all. Silmarils, anyone?)

If not for all, then at least for most of us.
Not necessarily for the prisoners. But certainly for the mods.

Try and make us.

No, seriously, try.

I would, except your avatar is freaking me out too much for me to come up with a good revolutionary plan.

The Free Peoples of the Entmoot will not stand for such tyranny and flickering evil!

**Mari** · 06-17-2012, 04:30 PM

I doubt the Free Peoples care much. If they don't like it here, they'll move somewhere else. Home is where the heart is after all.

***Earniel*** · 06-18-2012, 07:49 AM

Ach, revolutionaries aren't anymore what they used to be, obviously.

Just one statement of dictatorship and a few flickering avatars and they get cold feet!

**Mari** · 06-18-2012, 09:03 AM

Nah, I'm just extremely individualistic and I don't need much, really, to be happy.

The last sane person · 06-19-2012, 10:27 PM

Been a while, so hello all.

Now what's cracking?

***RÃan*** · 06-20-2012, 12:59 AM

Just look at any of the mods' avatars for a few seconds and you'll find out ...

bwahahahaha!

***Earniel*** · 06-20-2012, 05:34 AM

Oh you know, this and that. A mod-staged coup and the abolishment of Entmoot precidency. You know, the usual.

Totally legal, I may add. We nicely deposed the current president. We even have a full accouncement up and managed to convert the Treebeard in the banner already to the side of Mod-dor.

Considering we haven't met that much resistance, we can only assume the people of Entmoot are entirely happy living in an Entmoot-dictatorship!

(And no, we didn't tamper with the water. Yet.)

**Mari** · 06-20-2012, 08:44 AM

We are now under the rule of pirates? *raises eyebrow* Isn't that by definition illegal?

***Earniel*** · 06-20-2012, 11:16 AM

We-ell, not if you make the laws, I assume.

(And don't you kinda need a ship to be a pirate, anyway?)

**Mari** · 06-20-2012, 12:29 PM

No, I think just having an eyepatch and saying "argh" every once in a while will do.
