No arson for me, but really does anyone have a woodchipper I can borrow?

I hear there is a free WoodChipping set by the price of holding down Alt and F4 LT...

One learns living as I do in the woods of Maine--never poke a hibernating bear.

Any if anyone doubts my strategic acumen, I actually predicted the "ayes" problem and saw clearly what you were up to. That I was completely ignored only goes to show that I'm the premier mind in this game--a guild full of geniuses just couldn't see it.

I am reminded by this event (and Donald Trump) of a tasty bit of prose from the holocost. Normally I hate such comparisons, but it fits:

First they came for the Socialists, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a Socialist.
Then they came for the Trade Unionists, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a Trade Unionist.
Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.

I like that quote. Reminds me of this song...


"Workin' At The Car Wash Blues"

Well, I had just got out from the county prison
Doin ninety days for non-support
Tried to find me an executive position
But no matter how smooth I talked
They wouldnt listen to the fact that I was a genius
The man say, we got all that we can use.
Now i got them steadily depressin, low down mind messin
Working at the car wash blues

Well, I should be sittin in an air conditioned office in a swivel chair
Talkin some trash to the secretaries
Sayin, here, now mama, come on over here.
Instead, Im stuck here rubbin these fenders with a rag
And walkin home in soggy old shoes
With them steadily depressin, low down mind messin
Workin at the car wash blues

You know a man of my ability
He should be smokin on a big cigar
But till I get myself straight I guess Ill just have to wait
In my rubber suit a-rubbin these cars

Well, all I can do is a shake my head
You might not believe that its true
For workin at this end of niagara falls
Is an undiscovered howard hughes
So baby, dont expect to see me
With no double martini in any high-brow society news
Cause I got them steadily depressin, low down mind messin
Workin at the car wash blues
So baby, dont expect to see me
With no double martini in any high-brow society news
Cause I got them steadily depressin, low down mind messin
Workin at the car wash blues
Yeah I got them steadily depressin, low down mind messin
Workin at the car wash blues


Thanks to Jim Croce for such wonderful lyrics !

If I remember Correctly, Aye Cappy gave me a beat down when I was with Spanish Ayes ( When it was truly just a Spanish Guild ) Whilst the day after - Ayes took his MoW's...

If I am right ( May be wrong. )

Funny, I shaved my beard as I do after most major terrorist events, so now I am sporting the Jim Croce look:)

As I remember it, I was doing some nation missions and having some fun with ayes in the forum and someone took it too seriously and hit me on Christmas Day. Not that hard to do, 5 against 1 on a holdiay, but it must be the greatest thing these guys have ever done because they haven't stopped talking about it since.

I really cannot comment on the numbers or details as I did not take part but I do recall LT promising you a Christmas present that would be memorable.
He seems much calmer now with his new found hobby of breeding donkeys.

Regardless, I digress as nominations keep coming in for the winner this year.
Player B119 was the winner of the early bird draw and gets to start a brand new game.
We are uncertain if this feature will become an annual event as well but when B119 asked us to consider an early bird feature, the time was right to indulge his wishes.

The list has become rather lengthy and we hope to shorten it to just 5 contestants before presenting it to the general masses for some light-hearted predictions.

Somewhat counter-intuitive bit of logic there.. surely the best time to poke a bear is when it is in a deep sleep... poking ones that are awake is more obviously the high-risk option, no?

Wooooo Hold up there buddy, As I recall... It was Danik and LoveTiger that took your ships : Yes I cast one voodoo, which was blocked by there Mindbar they placed on you - Which proves, that I did not know of this raid until it took place -As I recall I was spamming the Guild Discussion and Stan gave me a bloody good seeing to... That was when the Donkeys was born... The Donkeys that would rule these lands.
