    By now the GPA is above and beyond everything, it's metaphysics, inescapable material. As such it can't be turned into the Grey Council and, at the same time, it's already the Grey Council.

     

    NG is the aggressive neutral in my book, but the concept of joining implies the one of moving, which is intrinsically waaaaay too much effort for this old fool.

    I would anyway accept the title of honorary member, at the condition that I am not expected to do anything (not even remember about it).

    I like this post, which reflects my view with the exception that it needs to reference myself and OBR.

  12. Celebrating a Decade of Destruction

    W_A_R levers himself off his nursing home cot, the thin mattress stuffed with hay is now damp with bodily fluids that have seeped through the rough hessian cover. 

    Some of the damp is from W_A_R's involuntary evacuations, others are from spills of the Black Keep's apothacaries and medics, from the regular blood letting and application of leeches.

    He waves help away, useless as they are, as his chainmail undergarments crack away a thin crust of rust and odious substances. 

     

    Did I hear someone say 'retirement home'?  Piffle!  These youngsters think they have it tough. Wait until you until you can't distinguish a bedsore from your dinner. 

     

    Luxury, NG.  Bloody Luxury.

     

    Congratulations on your tenth anniversary.  May your superannuation be enough to sustain you into your enivitable dotage.

     

    W_A_R falls back into his bedding, which embraces the Knight XXI of OBR with a thick moist slurp.

    I can't believe there are still five or 6 sanctioned alliances that I have been part of. And two that sent me to zero infrastructure. Temp, not permanent, although since I figure I haven't logged in to my nation in five years, probably more.

    Man, i joined FAN to fight the NPO when FAN was sentenced to permanent zeroing.

    Good times. I doubt there are 5 people on here who remember me.

    I remember you most fondly Mach, particularly our time at GOLD and CON.

  21. Announcement from TPF

    Why doesn't all this feel like the old days, where a man and his horse could be each other's company,  the long cold nights, the smell of woodsmoke, freshly brewed tea, the mummur of a brook, the ribbiting of frogs and ratcheting of crickets.... you remember thoses days and lonely lonely nights, wondering when you put ...... oh, company is here. 

     

    Good luck with what ever you are seeking.

     

     make sure you get a pretty horse.

  22. A Statement from Non Grata

    Perhaps an unaligned independent perspective. 

     

    I was not witness to the original OOC attack, or across the circumstances.  OOC attacks  should never occur and should have consequences.

     

    Nevertheless I was on NG Discord when Mochi's approached NG afterwards. 

     

    I believe Stewie's follow up apology is sincere and genuine, and there is a desire to move on.

     

    While I do not know JA (I may have in my earlier more active times) I hope he can be informed of NG's contrition and can either return or remember better times.

  24. Announcement from the Order of the Black Rose - A New Page

    in Alliance Announcements (IC)

    I will keep this short and sharp, without the verbiage we have been known for.

     

    The Order of the Black Rose remains. It perpetuates. While many of the Knights have passed on from this realm of Digiterra, or Planet Bob if you like, several remain to ensure that the values of the Black Rose continue.  Our influence may have diminished in the eyes of many over the years, however we continue to be.

     

    In recent years few have chosen to become a member of the OBR.  We are a taciturn bunch and generally keep to ourselves.  Not to say we don't get out these days.  We are just more comfortable in the Black Keep.  

     

    To become a member of the Order has always been a challenging matter. It was those many years ago when I supplicated, after roles with GOLD and CON.  To become a Page was a true test; to progress to Squire even more so; to be knighted, an achievement in its own. 

     

    It is therefore my pleasure to be able to announce that the Order welcomes one who wishes to progess along the diamond path to Knighthood.  Sysiphus Maximus of Pelabos has passed the rigours of supplication and has been annointed Page of the Order of the Black Rose.

     

    Congratulations Page Sys.  

     

    In the name of Queen AterAtra and the Knight Protector of the Black Rose, Sir Winslow.

     

    I understand Page Sys has been known to frequent the halls of other alliances. Please extend your congratulations in due course.

     

    Sir W_A_R of Vijar

    Knight XXI
