As you will one day remember
In the merry month of September,
Searching topics laid
by players with posts made,
Beasts were slain, and birds were hunted,
Farming plots grew, hatchets were blunted;
Everyone grinding did moan,
Save the Iron accounts alone:
They strive in skills with goals of maxing,
Despite the effort being quite taxing,
When death takes them, it is a pity,
Especially after reaching the Elven City,
Then taking to social media to complain,
Scarcely from anguish can they refrain;
For their grief is so clearly shown,
Making me think upon my own.
Ah, thought I, my words are in vain,
As my problems don't equal this kind of pain.
But if your plans do go wrong, then dry your eyes;
Comfort can be found in the clan called !




Bump!

Making your way in the game today,
Takes everything you've got.
Taking a break from all that skilling
Sure would help a lot.
Wouldn't you like some company?

Sometimes you've gotta go
Where everybody wants the same.
Capping together eases pain.
You wanna be where you can meet
Our clannies chatting while you train,
You wanna be in ; that's our name!




Bump!

Did you know that you've just stumbled upon a clan that has won accolades?


won the 1066 award for Most Blood Spilt In Battle. They similarly earned a five star review for providing excellent catering for William's invasion of England!

won the 'Best Dressed Playwright' award in 1592. Shakespeare wasn't too happy about it, but we'll put that down to the 'receding hairline denial' he was suffering from. I mean, honestly, long hair and a bald patch? Who was he kidding?

came a worthy second place in the prestigious Cheese Rolling Contest of 1812. Cooper's Hill near Gloucester has never seen anything like it before or since!


So as you can see, with such a rich history of victories and near-victories, it would be your loss if you didn't apply today! More information can be found at the start of this thread.

Did you know...

...about something called The Infinite Monkey Theorem? The idea is that if you an infinite number of monkeys (or indeed other primates) down at some typewriters, and leave them adequately fed and watered, one of them will eventually type out the complete works of William Shakespeare, just by randomly pressing keys. The extreme improbability of any monkey doing that is counterbalanced by there being infinitely many monkeys (and, in some versions, infinite time), so one of them is bound to do it.

It was developed in 1913 by Emile Borel and Arthur Eddington, but wasn't tested using a computer until 2003 in an experiment conducted at Plymouth University, England. The results were, unsurprisingly, of little literary merit, with a stream of unconnected letters going on for countless pages. However, the internet proves that no matter how many monkeys are bashing away at keyboards, they still won't produce anything worthwhile.

As you're consigned to not doing anything worthwhile anyway, thanks to this theorem, why not consider joining

Clear Skies

? In our warm, friendly atmosphere, you'll get through that grind, or get that next achievement, or maybe might just even have a great time
