Ozymandias Posted May 10, 2004 Report Posted May 10, 2004 Ladies, Gentlemen and various creative folk: It is time for promotions again! [actually, for official records, it was time for promotions by the rules on the fourth. I find myself to be...fashionably...late. (...again.) Gomenasai! {:>( ] In light of the dog days of summer having hit with a vengeance, at least in mine own, Perdhil, Wyvern, and I do believe Damon's respective areas, I propose something a little more laid back this time for the ceremony. In other words: Drinks are on me! I'd like to propose not one, but nine toasts to-day. A mug of coffee (my own #1 poison o' choice) raised to all of our new Pages! *gulp* For each in particular; A glass of red bordeaux raised to Jareena Faye and the Corpus Christi. *sip* To MeThinksUFoolish, a glass of Irish Coffee. For only someone with a mentality far too close to old Sav's could devise such a drink. ;>) *gulp* To Tanuchan, a shot of Grey Goose Vodka, a refined, yet powerful drink. *gulp* WhooO. To Vanessa, another hit from the Hypnotiq; its' sweet, effervescent taste is good at relaxing you before you notice it's happening. *gulp* To ntraveler2, a swig of Sapporo. In my experience Japanese as a nation seem hyper-reserved people with a roiling storm of passion and creativity underneath that thin yet strong veneer. And it's the best beer they make. *gulp* For those promoted to Quillbearer, I raise my trusty flask of Ol' Peculiar, that legendary drink we senior oldsters both cherished and reviled. *SSSSSizzzzzzzzzzzzzzle* Ow... To Finnius, I raise not one, but two glassesh, 99 apples, then 99 oranges; for the one who has been mixing them and mixing them well since day one. And last, but not least, to Xaious, Master of Time I raise the most appropriately freakishly sugar-charged popular drink I could find- Everclear. *gulp* *twitch* Hee. WHURRRP. Congratulations to all, and excuse me!!!!
Xaious, Master of Time Posted May 11, 2004 Report Posted May 11, 2004 *is a...astonished....* Why..Thank you! I'd like to thank Ayshela, and Wyve..wait..these aren't the academy awards.... *graciously accepts the honors* And yet, I must say, in celebration..... Vodka spiked Lemonade to everyone, my treat! *starts handing out the spiked lemonade, all held within Sobe bottles.* And please, Ozy, don't wallow in the joy all by yourself, allow me to partake of the festivities, too. *twitches*
Degenero Angelus Posted May 11, 2004 Report Posted May 11, 2004 Congrats to all the new pages, and all the new Quill Bearers, especially the ones I know better than the ones I don't. Again, congrats. *drinks a drink in honor of each one and walks away, slightly less stable than when he came in*
Tanuchan Posted May 11, 2004 Report Posted May 11, 2004 Got completely by surprise, blushes madly at listening to the toasts and finding her name in them. Thank you... I don't know what to say. Just that I'm happy to be here, and I hope I can keep helping the Pen to grow strong. Finally calming herself, goes around hugging the other promoted friends Congratulations to all! *and a bear hug to MeThinksUFoolish, for the fun time at the Werewolf games *
Katzaniel Posted May 11, 2004 Report Posted May 11, 2004 ...especially the ones I know better than the ones I don't... Wow, totally profound Still, I feel the same. Got completely by surprise... Not I. Every one of you is fully deserving of this. Even for the ones I don't know so well, I have still seen you around enough to know that this is a great cast of newly-risens. Congratulations all! (And be glad that *you* weren't chased by crazy magical rats for your promotion... only good old Ozy!)
Finnius Posted May 11, 2004 Report Posted May 11, 2004 *Sniffs... *Sniffles... *Snickers... ~Woo-hoo! Thanks to you, Ozy, and to everyone who showed up to give congratulations. Really, it's a wonderful gesture, and is greatly appreciated. After finishing with gratitude, Finnius wanders around the room congratulating the other promotees, especially Tanuchan, ntraveller2, and Xaious.

Peredhil Posted May 25, 2004 Report Posted May 25, 2004 I'm probably the one who was Initiate the longest. Prolly feels that way, doesn't it? 20/8/02 ntraveler2 But the following are all still Initiates. 14/7/02 Thomas the Lost 7/7/02 Xelnaga The First 13/1/02 DoPeY 8/12/01 Andrea Hawk Some are pretty inactive - but I see the DoPeStEr on IRC and he's posted around here, and the others as well. As you read through the threads in the areas now open to your eyes, you'll note the constant debates and discussions on What ranks? How often? What standards? etc. I urge you to thoughtfully discuss the issues (and not the people!), and when you achieve voting status to exercise your vote whenever you can. Welcome to Page. -Peredhil
Ozymandias Posted May 25, 2004 Author Report Posted May 25, 2004 Sounds quite interesting, Traveler. I'll look forward to reading that story. Hopefully I'll have one or two of my own to share by then, and we can compare notes. Ganbare!
