Looks like the time is running out and I don't want to stay outside after all, so I'll vote for RSF. Why? MM's suggestion gives more power to the mods, while RSF's - more power to all the members. I prefer the latter. ____________ DON'T BE A NOOB, JOIN A.D.V.E.N.T.U.R.E.
The Challenge: You must choose one HC member and write a convincing love letter no more then 200 words. It must contain some humor, minimal threats, and mention of "that night we had together".

Dear RSF,

To Valeriy,
I write to you my dearest Admin
Hold your anger for my short sermon
I know that many poor things were said
But I can’t forget our night in bed
I wish to make a triumphant return
I’ve gone so far to buy you a fern
Please take my humble request
Else I will tell HC of your secret incest
If you’re not able to give me the nod
Then make me become HCs next mod
Please do not think that I will cause harm
Let me remind you that third time’s a charm
There ya guys have it. Vote Away.

The Challenge:
Post a picture of a seemingly ordinary object. Explain why there is more to this object than meets the eye. It is an artifact from the world of Homm (or some other fantastical world) that gives enhancements to its wielder. Explain how the artifact works and provide its history. This could include why it was forged, how it was forged, what famous people wielded it etc.

This toothbrush is not a mere ordinary toothbrush. it is the toothbrush of destiny. with this legendary artifact in hand one can slay the abominations that make others run in fear. (Bad breath, Puns, Lawyers etc.) This toothbrush comes from the land of Ainran a mystical place populated by talking animals who have enslaved the human race. a lone human plasticforger took up this toothbrush and led a crusade against the animals he was promptly slaughter because little did he know the animals weren't lawyers. The toothbrush was discovered in the garden and thrown into a time rift where it ended up on some guy's front doorstep. Some guy took this object of power and used it to brush his teeth. seeking revenge the toothbrush one day slid down his throat and choked him. After the body was buried dug up and eaten by rabid cannibals i came across this object and realized its power, purpose, and destiny.

Artifact: Brick of the Greens
Looks like a plastic toy Lego-like brick? Nope, it is a pocket artifact, known as the "Brick of the Greens". The eight nodes on the top surface is actually an indication of the enhancements it brings to the wielder.
Basic Enchantments:+1 attack, +1 defence, +1 morale, +1 luck, +25% protection against air-, earth-, fire- and ice-based spells
Additional Benefits for Several Cases:
(1)Additional +2 attack, +2 defence if there are at least 22 peasants/conscripts/brutes in total (any combination) in army;
(2)Additional +1 gold from peasants/conscripts/brutes etc. if hero is Ellaine;
(3)If hero also has another artifact(s) with elemental magic protection (such as bearhide wraps, shield of crystal ice), hero's troops receive immunity to spells of that element. If there are several such artifacts for different elements, one element is randomly chosen for the next battle. The immunity element counter is then reset until as randomly chosen again for the next battle.
History:
It was known that the peasant community in Ellaine's manor had actually gave this "toy among the peasantfolk" to Ellaine as a "token of our appreciation". Not wanting to refuse them, Ellaine accepted the gift though she wondered if this "toy" is of any use. Nevertheless, she still brought it along with her in some battles, which is where she realised the power of the brick, especially in warding enemy elemental spells.
Back at the camp, after knowing that Rutger needs to make a potentially fatal scouting mission into Ygg-Chall territory, Ellaine asked to speak to Rutger about this artifact and offered to borrow it to Rutger for this mission, since she would not likely be in the front lines for a while, tending to the accounting books of the military. Rutger accepted the offer, and, after amassing some other useful artifacts, set off for the mission.
Four months later, Rutger returned back to camp safely, though with fewer surviving troops than he had expected. He shared his experiences with equipping the brickduring battles with dungeon enemies, and after some consultation with the priests, gathered that the brick was more effective for Ellaine because she herself is a peasant hero and her troops always consisted of at least 22 peasants/ conscripts/brutes in total, whereas Rutger never brought these units into battle.
Recently, the master artifact craftsman (aka broadstrong, yours truly) got wind of the news and requested Ellaine to help in mass-producing this artifact. Ellaine agreed, on the condition that she accompany the leader to ask from the peasants, and the recipe is not to be divulged under ANY circumstances.
So I am afraid I can't really say how this item is forged, in fact this item is still quite limited in quantity. Anyway, this is the story of the Brick of the Greens.
Carcity
Story: this magnificent artifact was forged by the dwarves to a very special king. It later got enchanted by wizards and blessed by elves. This made this artefact into a very powerful one. When used correctly this artefact is devastating. Although it is very valuable it is often guarded well and hard to find. But if you use it for too long you will get a curse from it
Ability: The wielder of this artefact get a +5 to all primary stats and gives all creatures plus 10% to initiative. But every 10:th battle all your creatures will get all non-damaging dark magic curses cast on them for the whole combat.

Write why your opponents are complete and utter Cybergeeks. There will be one round for rebuttal. And another round for counter arguments. The winner will be hilarious, have made the others look like complete DWEEBAZOIDS, and have established that he/she is “THE MAN” or “THE WO-MAN.”

Yes, it’s true. I am “The Man”. You may be looking at my opponents and asking yourself, what makes Mighty Mage “The Man”?
Let me start with a definition.
1. n. (derogatory, semi-proper) Term used to describe any class of people who wield power and are seen as oppressive. The Man is the head of "the establishment" or an authoritative figure put in place to "bring us down." Though nobody has physically seen "the man," he is assumed to be a male Caucasian between the ages of 21-40 and is rumored to have a substantial amount of acquired wealth, presumably acquired by exploiting those whom his "establishment" is "keeping down."
As a moderator at Heroes Community, I have sufficiently kept you all down…..also in case you hadn’t guessed by now, I am white. If you feel you have not been properly “kept down”, don’t worry, I’ll hand out a penalty later to make up for it.
So the next time anyone asks you, “who is that Mighty Mage fellow always keeping us down?” you can reply confidently, “He’s The Man”

Lets first start looking at Mightymage and his profile.
As you can see, his status is a Moderator. Only a true cybergeek would apply for a moderator on an online forum, plus he is a moderator of Other Games and Bards Glade. What's so bad about that? Well nothing really, unless you take into account that cybergeeks mainly play games and Bards Glade is about writing, and when you are writing that means you are on the computer more, thus becoming more of a cybergeek. He joined in August of 2001, which is quite a long time. Seems to me that he needs some help and no, not help from the Downhill Times thread or from online members, some help from another person, face to face. It seems as though Mightymage hasn't been as active lately since he actually did escape from the computer for once and had was in the real world, but he has come back and that means we have to see neverending posts which he tells he is delicious or an attempt to make a joke just to hide the fact that he is a cybergeek.
His Personal Page says, and I quote: "I've been a member here at Heroes Community, HC to the cool people". Now, is it just me or did Mighty Mage just say "HC to the cool people"? Hmm, Mighty Mage seems to be more of a cybergeek than I first thought.
His Personal Page also states that he works at a place called 'Technicolour', which is supposedly a "big movie and game company" where he is in charge of Quality. Is it just me, or did Mighty Mage perhaps try to get that job because it reminded him of Quality Points on Heroes Community? If Mightymage isn't on the computer at home, then he is on the computer at his job, so he is a cybergeek regardless of what he does.
Now his username isn't really convincing. Judging by everything I have said (and more to come), he is anything BUT Mighty. The Mage part of his username was put there because of his love for Mages in most Computer games, something he loves so much and mods a forum about games. I'm assuming that he is trying to fool everyone by calling himself Mighty. Plus, the way he kept on acting like some kind of gangster or something was really bad and was an obvious attempt at trying to get at least somebody to like him since most people started to get away from him after his obsession for computers was reaching the maximum that it could reach.
If that's not enough, he even created a thread where he gave out his phone number and wanted people to call him. This was interesting, but it was obviously an attempt to get another human to talk to him. It showed that he was incredibly desperate for another human to even make contact with him, even if he couldn't see them face to face. He has often said he is delicious, but this is just an attempt to try and get women to like him...sadly for him, it's not working too well. Plus, I don't think women would think that a cybergeek would be delicious, quite the contrary. Would probably taste like old bread crumbs and various flavours of drink that haven't been washed out of their clothes and it somehow went into the skin.
As you can see in this thread here, Mighty Nerd asks if anybody wants to be in a threesome with him. He tried to make it so that he meant it as a joke by saying "Wow, if you clicked on this thread, that means you actually considered it". Right below that though, he wrote this "If you are a chick though (that means either Pan or Ash I guess) How YOU doin?". So you are surprised and joking that if somebody clicked on the thread that they actually considered it, but even you want it but only with women. A cybergeek
There will not be extra time for rebuttal, this round is taking too damn long. ____________
Go Red Sox!
What is behind this door? You may write a narrative piece or poem. You may use pictures. You may use anything you can think of to describe what is behind the door.
Asheera
So, you found the door to the Mod Squad Headquarters, hmm? You're tempted to enter it, I know, but I'll have to warn you in advance, that this door is very dangerous. More precisely, opening it is dangerous. I know, it looks 'innocent', but this door is weird: every time you open it, it leads to a different place. So, let's analyze the possibilities:
Well this door can lead to a tiny room with a message for you. Although it is harmless, it is known to infuriate some people. Another possibility is to lead you to the path for ultimate knowledge of the universe - however, humans have limited brain capacity and it can't be possible to grasp the complete idea, and those that try to understand the meaning of the universe will lose all their rational thoughts and become psychos. It can also lead you to a Black Hole - which means instant death for you. But there's something a lot worse than death - this door can lead you straight to Hell, where you'll be tortured for an eternity! Even worse than Hell, the next possibility is simply a horror. May God have mercy on your soul if this door opens the path for you to the OSM Quote Wars!
If you still want to try your luck and open this door after all I've said above, then just know that if you're lucky you will get to the correct destination: The Mod Squad Headquarters! Here's a pic of the first room from the Mod Squad HQ:
Now you see that the Mods have to take this risk every time they need to enter that place. They usually enter it with Golden Horseshoe after visiting some Faerie Rings, but even with +5 Luck you still get the wrong place at times - just look what happened to poor startune

I'm beyond disappointed that no one picked apart their opponents TUM style.
Where's the geeky nicknames?
I vote for no one.
MessyMage:
Other than his name trying to make up for something, this guy is a moderator of not just a website devoted to a video game, but he moderates a forum which discusses all video games. Truly a man obsessed with video games. He needs to put down the games and go find some girls.
Sir William the 14th:
Look at this guys post count. He's one of the highest here at HC. That's 4641 times he decided to post here instead of getting out into the real world and flirt with the ladies. Even more of a cybergeek than MessyMage.
Limpman:
This guys occupation says it all. Jester? You gonna go juggle out on the street and beg for money? Have fun sleeping in the streets with the homeless. Spamming? You really embrace wasting your time on a website don't you? Tavern Lurker? I assume this means that the remaining amount of your time you spend reading the forums. Not much of a job I gotta say. Women like real jobs pal. Go get one. Oh and my guess is that you live with your parents too. Moving out would be the next step.
