I fit my scribes with special colors that kill them in various ways in my free time, what about you?
-
I prefer the old standbys, the Scourge, the Rack, the Barbecue Pit...

Apparently Outer Tilog is too much for even Daimons.

Indeed, OOC info for those that are unaware (though as I've now posted it in the Colonial Senate, everyone on the island _should_ know!:
A New Portal? (10 hours, 39 minutes ago)
message to everyone in the vicinity of Outer Tilog
The portal stones placed by Bilbo sit in the out-of-the-way alley in Outer Tilog for over a day before anything interesting happens.
A few hours after dusk on the second day, though, the stones rise from the ground and begin to spin. As they spin faster and faster, they form a six-foot-wide glowing disc of energy, which rotates until is is perpendicular to the ground. With a thunderous snap, the portal opens, and a screeching horde of hellish creatures pours forth from it.
As they swarm out of the alley and into the streets of Outer Tilog, the first humans they encounter are quaffing ale at a table outside a pub. "Why, I tell you," one of them, an old codger with fewer teeth than fingers (and not as many of those as he was born with) grumbles, "things wash better back in th' old days. Why, we had proper terror and torture back then! No' like th' stuff you young'unsh get now!"
The curmudgeon looks up past the shoulder of his drinking companion and sees the horde of demons. "Aye," he cries, pointing at them, "like that!" He stands unsteadily, and stumbles toward them.
"Oi, you lot!" he calls out to them.
The horde stops, looking confused, and one of the ones in front hesitantly points a claw at its chest.
"Aye, you!" the old fool shouts, shaking a crooked finger at them. "Where've ye been these past years! Ourter—ooter—otter—thish plashe has gone to the dogs! To the dogs, I say! And aren't ye ashamed that it hasn't gone to ye?!"
During this tirade, the demonic horde has been slowly slinking back into the alley. After a few minutes, the old coot finally notices this, and starts staggering off after them. "Hey, wait! I wasn' finished wit' you!"
He follows them back down the alley to where they have been scrambling back through the portal, and grabs one by its hugely-oversized ear. "Oh, no, y'don't!" he yells, right into the ear. The demon winces in obvious pain, and pulls away, darting through the portal before the man's inebriated reflexes can respond.
Nothing daunted, and with enough liquid courage in him to inspire a battalion, he lowers his head and charges right into the wall.
Wait...
Shaking his head, he turns a few degrees to the right and charges straight through the portal.
By this time, his drinking companion has come over to the mouth of the alley to see what is going on. He watches open-mouthed as the oldster goes right through a portal to hell (or someplace just as bad), then scrunches up his face in befuddlement at the noises of yelling and screeching that drift back through.
After several minutes of this, the old man marches back through with exaggerated care, followed by a couple of very subdued (and confused) looking imps, their wings fluttering madly to keep them aloft while carrying a ten-foot-tall statue of legendary former Mistress of Injustice Despyria in the midst of her favourite activity: torturing a prisoner.
The statue appears to be made entirely of finger- and toenails, held together by some substance that would probably be best not inquired into too closely.
Some of them still have bits of finger and toe attached.
The imps set the statue down right in front of the tavern, much to the obvious satisfaction of the drunk old man, then zip back through the portal before he can yell at them again. The instant the second imp disappears through the portal, there is another thunderclap as it snaps shut.

There was a post somewhere that I can't find where we were comparing best realm signs. I think OT deserves an honorable mention!
Important WarningI wish this sign was big enough to tell you that the only way you will possibly survive in these lands is if you bring along a

Those signs may be older than our Ruler's bulletin...

It's not that difficult to find. It's stickied (https://forum.battlemaster.org/index.php/topic,7764.0.html) on the general discussion board.
Also, your formatting got messed up again.
-
ugh, thanks. i swear im trying to be a better person
-
Nice realm you got there, OT. Perfect for keeping Wetham at a distance while we bicker and battle for funsies. 8)
-
Be warned all you foreign muck:
Grimwald the Black is Outer Tilog's new marshal and he's keeping his eye out for neighbours to invade.

Do it already! We need some spectator fun.

I'm working on it already. Just need to get this stupid election out of the way first :p

So... Outer Tilog has just announced a tournament of joust and sword with a rather large 7000 gold prize pot...
Here’s hoping everyone that can join, does...

I'd rather not have everyone join, so I can win!
-
Well, I need 350 participants to break even... doh!
-
Hang on, I’m hosting this tournament and I don’t have any way to actually wander around and talk to the people attending?!?!

Don't worry, it's only me in there.
-
9 days notice isn't a lot on the colonies! I predict a wave of arrivals in the last couple of days before the tournament starts.
-
9 days was the maximum I could do... I’d have rather done a couple of weeks...

So Orang (from Aren) is travelling in on the same path as an enemy unit. He keeps evading successfully, but makes me wonder about the proper etiquette at tournaments - how are fights avoided as realms converge?

By clicking the “attend tournament†option rather that actually moving the noble and troops to the location...
-
I never thought of people actually travelling to the place of the tournament..
Like James says, all you need to do is click the link to join the tournament and it will take you there in x turns (depending on how far away you are). You'll get there automatically and your unit will stay right where it is.
-
Ah. Well, shows what I know. Also, big ups to the other nobles of Aren for sharing that info.
Now that I'm almost there, I figure I'll pop on in. Why not see the lands of Tilog in person, after all.
-
Stick to evasive and be prepared for your unit to have vanished when you return to them... also, you run the risk of injury which could stop you attending the tournament at all...
Best bet is to just click the attend option, then come and visit in the flesh afterwards...

T minus 2!
