Daes Dae'mar - January 2011 Newsletter

[Wayward_fool]

 

 

 

"Where in the Blight's name of all things unholy have you been?" Screamed an insanely pitchy Trolloc as he watched his head Fade appear from the shadows.

 

And so, on that note, I am pleased to announce the return of Daes Dae'mar, the White Tower Newsletter. Not that we've been anywhere or doing anything naughty. Really! Honest! Well, SOME of us have. But in ways that was wisely not to be discussed here or anywhere civilised conversation takes place. Mostly because I've been reminded that we are to remain PG16 and in no way may I use photos of Elgee doing aforementioned naughty things as a way to increase readership.

 

Right. So where have we been? You'd expect some sort of revamp wouldn't you? A way jazzier Newsletter full of crazy new ideas and mad graphics to dazzle your mundane minds. Well! That's not how WE work. No, sirree. We're here to bring you the same old informative stuff. With a spanking new group of writers and contributors who should be shown some love. Yes, in THAT way. With pictorial evidence required. *nods* Good job. We want you to feel the same old charm we started with. If it ain't broke, why (not) make love to it?

 

So, without further ado, I proudly present the January 2011 issue of Daes Dae'mar.

 

Let the good times roll, people, let the good times roll.

 

Much love and hugs,

Boopsy Sedai

Editor and All Round Nice Guy

 

 

PS. Let us know if you want to contribute to our Newsletter, either as a writer, information gatherer or just as someone to keep the rest of us entertained. Okay, maybe not the last one. PM Elgee or I. It’ll be great! We have cookies. Everyone loves cookies. Om nom nom nom nom. Join us. Pweeeeese? Kthxbye.

Along with the Excitement of a New Year, there are several upcoming Events here at the White Tower that we KNOW you'll want to join in on!

 

The Green's "Festival of Lights" Event continues through January 2nd. Come join in for dancing, games and discussions on the White Tower board!

 

Also in January the bi-monthly "White Tower and the DM World" Class should be kicking up again in January after taking December off. Novices and Algai, be sure to sign up!

 

It also looks Like there's still time to sign up for the class "How to get involved in politics". If that's something you're interested in, get in quick!

 

Finally, as we look forward to February, the Yellows are planning a mushy-gushy Valentine's Event! This is sure to be a keeper, so be sure to keep an eye out for it!

 

And now, here's Zosime with the Anniversaries and Birthdays of the month!

 

There's been a lot going on the the world of Bondings and anniversaries and birthdays, which is rather exciting- if I do say so myself.
