Through Rohan over fen and field where the long grass grows
The West Wind comes walking, and about the walls it goes.
'What news from the West, O wandering wind, do you bring to me tonight?
Have you seen fair Matthew Downie by moon or by starlight?'
'I saw him ride over seven streams, over waters wide and grey;
I saw him walk in empty lands, until he passed away
Into the shadows of the North. I saw him then no more.
The North Wind may have heard the harp of the one who you adore.'
'Matthew Downie! From the high walls westward I looked afar,
But you came not from the empty lands where no men are.'

From the mouths of the Sea the South Wind flies, from the sandhills and the stones;
The wailing of the gulls it bears, and at the gate it moans.
'What news from the South, O sighing wind, do you bring to me at eve?
Where is our friend Matthew Downie? He tarries and I grieve.'
'Ask not of me where he doth dwell --- so many bones there lie
On the white shores and the dark shores under the stormy sky;
So many have passed down Anduin to find the flowing Sea.
Ask of the North Wind news of them the North Wind sends to me!'
'Matthew Downie! Beyond the gate the seaward road runs south,
But you came not with the wailing gulls from the grey sea's mouth.'

From the Gate of Kings the North Wind rides, and past the roaring falls;
And clear and cold about the tower its loud horn calls.
'What news from the North, O mighty wind, do you bring to me today?
Have you news of Matthew Downie? For he is long away.'
'At Amon Hen I heard his laugh. To pretty girls he sings.
His silver voice, so filled with joy, off cliffs and mountains rings.
His head so proud, his face so fair, from Meta he has turned;
'Neath golden Rauros-falls he finds rest that he has earned.'
'Matthew Downie! The Tower of Guard shall ever northward gaze
To Rauros, golden Rauros-falls, until the end of days.'

This was taken from Tolkien, obviously, and inspired by the "Attention Matthew Downie" thread.

Kryo: thanks for the offer. I'm at work and don't have any ICQ access here. I'm usually pretty busy at home, too. And to top it all off, I'm sick as a dog right now. Don't know what I've caught but I feel like hell.

I've tried following the instructions to change themes but can't figure out what it means when it says copy all the layouts into theme.php.

To be honest with you, I'm thinking of just giving up on the e107 website, as it is really taking too much time away from work. Our html site doesn't require too much maintenance and is pretty thorough.

                          
#529  by Veteran kryo - 11/11/2003 8:56:31 AM

Well, that's the heart of e107, easy to maintain, hell to set up and customize

If you don't feel like messing with it then don't feel forced to. Just concentrate on getting better right now

In Smeagol's Quest to find the ONE Ring, he has just desimated a gigantic full strangth masso Galaxy into complete submittion.. (60,000) Still not finding the ring he press on..

Smeagol: Wheres is My Precous.... I've got to find it.. I hears it calling me.. I knows is close.. where izu hiding it...

Drengin Emperor.. The last survivor of the conqured galaxy

What ring.. I know of no ring.. you sniffling wimpering fool.. How did you Conqure this Galaxy.. by poisoning everyone..

Smeagol's voice changes.. as he straightens up to question his victom to get the long sort after information.

BlueSteel's voice.. strong & powerful (sounding totally out of place) comming out of Smeagol's mouth.. as he lifts up the Drengin's emperor up off the deck of the emperors ship.. (Not bad for what looks to be a frail 30pound weakling)

Smeagol: WHERE ISSS THE RING...

(Tosses the drengin accross the room.. as the Drengin Emperor's head hits the wall there is a very loud snap heard.. and he lays there on the floor neck broken..

(then back in his own voice) Where's my precous...
Bollocs you... you did it again... poor smeagol's never goin g to find the ring this way..


Smeagol has to learn control.. Smeagol doesn't understands it... something Comes over me and then me's not ne's no more..

Meanwhile bask at the great hall:
Ray, Theoden, and the rest of the council is in a secret meeting.. And yes you've guessed the topic...
How to keep Smeagol from getting the ring..
Some are concerned.. especially after seeing the video log of his interigation of the Drengin Emperor.. Some are even stretching the collar's of their Robes.. {making sure that their necks were still intact)..

{Someone please write up what the council meating..while I think of more for BlueSteel and Smeagol)

{To be continued}

Ray, why did you have to come out of semi-retirement and post those evil games?

                        
#534  by Veteran TheQuack - 11/11/2003 9:59:34 AM

How about continuing "Rise of the Raelians" on the SF thread? What's Evil Ray's next plan for immortality and world domination?

                    
#535  by Ambassador Ray the Wanderer - 11/11/2003 10:01:00 AM

MWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA... Evil Ray had to rise from his grave to show everyone how it is done

Well, I didn't come out of semi-retirement. I'm still semi-retired which means I will only play occassionally.

#515 by Ambassador Ray the Wanderer - 11/10/2003 9:06:16 AM vincible,I need a zipped copy of the .sav file cause everytime I try to download it in hotmail, it opens up as text instead. I guessing it's because it is just 54bytes.


See my post above. I can't download the .sav file from Hotmail. I need either a zipped copy or you can send it to my work email sbchua@cwt.com.sg Email

The choice was already made, we just have to understand it. The Prophecy already had Agent Ray in mind, which is maybe why the Spymaster is staying on the other side of the alignment board at the moment...

Not much forum for me today. The network's down in my lab

                        
#542  by Veteran Theoden of Rohan - 11/12/2003 3:39:38 PM

I'm swamped at work. And I'm still sick.

Hopefully I'll be more talkative tomorrow.

I'll send a nurse in a giant birthday cake to check your temperature and take care of you.

Maybe you need the same five medications Pontius is taking....

Welcome to the Fellowship, AKBONON.

Drop by and say hi.

Cari not buying in my latest game, Large map. Alex still bought. Scotty still won't buy. Vincible may have been right about it being unbalanced. Although I did definitely sell to Cari and I-League on a huge map, in the late game, no idea why they would buy in some cases and not others.

I wondered if relations had anything to do with it, but does not appear to be the case.

Just tried tech sales on a Maso Gig test game.
The Alexians are the only minor who are willing to part with big money.
The others give only a couple of bcs.

Hi all,

It has been awhile since I have visited the halls. But there has been so much going on. First I decided to start a RPG based in Middle Earth. I have just got started getting the adventures developed. I think I will be ready to start the adventure right before or after Thanksgiving. End of November for all you who do not stuff yourself with Turkey, stuffing, pumpkin pie, etc with the rest of your country once a year.

Then the latest PS2 Return of the King came out. I only play a few of those games, but that is one. I guess I am just hooked on the theme.

I have a game mostly completed, which I need to get finished and submitted. Will get that done in the next week I hope. I am looking for a new personal best and to also move up the difficulty ladder at the same time.

I just wanted to drop by say hello and see what has been going on. I also need a drop of wine and where else to visit by the Hall. Besides, I always put mine drinks on Théoden’s tab.

So that's why my tab is so much!


I'll send a nurse in a giant birthday cake to check your temperature and take care of you.


Now that's what I call a house call!!!

Maybe you need the same five medications Pontius is taking....


It would be worth a try!

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

Going to the doctor today. I can't take this coughing any longer. I'm sure my coworkers will appreciate that too.

Welcome to the Fellowship, AKBONON and Craig Wilson! Sorry I haven't gotten around to adding you to the roster on the website (http://fotr.galciv.org Link) It will be on there in a couple of minutes!

Ummm...actually it may take a while. I'm getting an error when I try to edit the roster.
