I know what you mean! They're almost like... glass/chrome, that doesn't exist though... they're almost see through with a metal look. Uh, I give up trying to explain what everyone can already see!

One admin to rule them all...
One admin to find them (spelling errors that is)
One admin to bring them all
and on the internet <insert admin duty here>
on the site of Holy Worlds... Where the snow falls...

Lol that's pretty awesome.

I really like mine too.

I officially love the new color bars. And I also love how Jay's looks like the One Ring. I recognized it immediately when I saw it.

Ash nazg durbatuluk
Ash nazg gimbatul
Ash nazg thrakatuluk
Agh burzum ishi krimpatul

And yes, that is from memory.

I like that idea, because the one admin's ring is totally awesome.

Five for the editors, who by their spell check dwell,
Twleve for the Marcher Lords, which have the greatest power
Seventeen for the Honor Roll Members, who work out spells
And Fourteen for the Moderators, who above all things, desire grammar

But they were all of them, deceived...
The dark admin Lauser forged in secret a master bar. Into it he poured his strength, his insight, and his will to dominate all posts...

Any one up for joining the Last Alliance?
Just kidding, Jay, we wouldn't want hurt Master... gollum! gaalum!

I'm guessing it has something to do with LOtR? Sorry, I'm ignorant in that aspect!

Heehee, I love this! x)

Nice job with that, Reiyen.

Yes, the "One Ring" is the pivotal object from LoTR.

*dies laughing over all the HW/LotR quotes *

Ah. I guessed it then.

Nice, Reiyen! =) I'm guessing that's how many people there is in each group?

eruheran

Yep, I just check "The Team" link and counted each color. By the way, I managed to preserve my HRM ring without Dark Lord Lauser taking mastery.

*laughing at all the LotR quotes in this thread*

I love the new rings. Now I haz POWER! Unlimited POWER!!!

Shall we carry this on in General Discussion?

I like the red ring with Emeth engraved in it, Jay. And now it looks different than everyone elses.

The new ring is fantastic, and very suited. Though the "One Ring" was funny.

Yes, it was fun. But not good enough to maintain permanently.

Very nice.
And much less evil, though just as cool.

Pretty! HR members have pink now, well pinky-purple, and I like yours, Name. You know, it was yesterday I saw your avatar and realized what was written on it.

The color matches the text color exactly.

Do not be deceived! The Dark Lord only seeks to cause us to believe that he has rescinded his will to dominate all posts! Be ever most vigilant... and if Jay suggests that we should build a great big tower behind a wall of mountains than we must surely unite!

I like the rings... it makes me feel more important!
But I thought that there were only 20 rings....

OOh, yes! Love the new ring, Emeth! They all look so awesome! You guys did a good job.

I made my new one myself, based off of Dieki's red base.

See? Dark Lord Lauser admits to having forged this ring himself! He worked off our pure models and has now completed forging the ring with which he will dominate all HW! I suggest we all meet in council at Orthanc to discuss what should be done...

*is dying of laughter from Reiyen's attempts to prove Sir Emeth's evilness!*

I love the new rings too!

Well done! Gotta ask though... what language is the writing? -is- it a language? Or am I being vague again?

The Dark Lord would like you to believe that it is Hebrew as his signature indicates. But do not be deceived, even Sauron himself appeared wise and fair to everyone before the fall of Numenor! Do not allow HW to have the same fate by believing in Lauser's power.

Is all that woe applicable to someone who hasn't read/seen LOtR?

Unfortunately I'm afraid I'm loyal to the death...

But I have had an idea. An idea that might make Dieki groan, but I think it's worth mentioning. See, I like Jay's ring. And I thought maybe it might be cool, (if it's possible and not a tremendous amount of work,) if you engraved the rank initials on the other rings too. 'twould be a nice touch, methinks.

That is actually a neat idea. I just might do that.

And yes, Emeth is Hebrew, and so I put the word 'emeth' in Hebrew on the ring.

Oh no! The dark Lord has done as the valiant Lord Reiyen has predicted! We must fear him and his slimy little minion Gollu...erm, Vanya! They desire to engrave our rings with an evil inscription of a curse! We must keep our rings pure, Reiyen! Do not let him deceive you! Hide your rings from them! Don't let their greedy eyes feast upon it!

You guys are having way too much fun

An interesting angle, but she can't deceive me! I will not be distracted from my quest! I shall hide in Moria, in the very depths of the mine. I'd rather brave a... a.... balrog! than this new evil that is upon us!!!!!!

This is hilarious!

The power of the purple rings can not be dispelled! Together, Lord Elanhil, we shall save this Holy Worlds.
Beware, the Dark Lord's minions often travel in disguise, some putting on the guise of Marcher Lords.
The Ring of Elanhil shall be called Gon, the Ring of Stone, for in Moria he preserved it, standing vigilant in the Foggy Mountains. As for me, I shall establish myself in the Citadel and the Courtyard, fighting valiantly with the power of the the Ring Curudraug, the Wolf of Skill.
Together we shall preserve the beauty of this place. And lest we be despised by the those of greater rank, remember, "Often help comes by the hands of the weak when the wise falter."

Alas the fall of Vanya and Airianna. They were subverted to his service. We must rally the HRM so that not all of the rings and the bearers become as they.

*Laughs Out Loud!*

I hate to break it to you, Reiyen, but if I've been corrupted, then I've already corrupted my purple ringed minions .

It may be too late, but I will join this Alliance for my Moderator brethren. The scrolls in Bestiary and Peoples, Races, and Tribes are mine to protect. I will do my best to hold the tide for the sake of these species I have pledged to protect. These corrupt Marcher Lords and our Evil Overlord already have a hold, but I will strive for peace.
With my ring Cerakmol, the mender of errors, I shall preserve as much beauty as I can.

We of the honorable purple color cannot be dominated simply by the word of Airianna. Indeed, I should name her Moriel, for she has been subverted from the Alliance. Rightly was it said that the Marcher Lords have the greatest power, and rightly was it said that power corrupts those who bear it without responsibility.
But I fear that the Alliance is too small to challenge the Dark Lord openly... we must live by secret, until his tyranny grows so that all can see the wisdom of our cause. Preserve the rings and the scrolls, and seek new allies in the halls of the Scholars, as well as the realm of Enderion.
But be not content with our small numbers. We must seek aid even from the weak and the uncolored. The shadow is long, and the black hand has strength enough to crush the hearts of the timid, and there may come a day when the strength of HRM fails, when moderators such as Griffin forsake all hope of freedom, but today is not that day.
Indeed, our all hopes now hang on the keyboards of but a few. Stray but a little, and we shall fail.

*tries to contain her laughter because Elianna is sleeping next to her*

Okay, so now I want to know, how did I get linked to the dark lord? I looked over the post and couldn't find where I could be incriminated in this unholy act.

But how can we accomplish this? They are everywhere! I will seek help. I know of at least one, I believe, uncorrupt Marcher Lord. She is wise and powerful, she will know what to do.

Resistance is futile.

I think it has something to do with you telling Reiyen and Elanhil that they were having way too much fun!

We now have an ally among the Marcher Lords. She has pledged her service, but will remain secret until time dictates the necessity of her active participation. Secrecy is of the utmost importance on this venture.
I can pm you guys if you're dying of curiosity.

Only one can stand free under the strength and influence of he who rules. Only one can so deeply deceive the leader into placing all trust within her. Yet, at the most timely moment, she will have gathered information, numbers, and trust enough within his forces to successfully bring him down through his own controlling attributes and troops. For in his trust of this one lies his own demise. Let he who has wisdom understand the tale told.

Will you also join us, Lady Esmerelda?

Big sisters, all the way! Sorry, Elanhil and Reiyen.

The Borg...

I see, thank you Princess for that enlightenment. Very well, let the wars begin!

@Lizzie: Yes! I knew I could count on you, Lizzie Love. Strike one boys!
