I would definitly second Glirdan's nomination of Hookbill for the 3rd category, but if he's outlawed himself against winning then what's the point?

[Glirdan]

Good point. My original plan was that, but my brother told me it would be chaos. But I say lets go ahead.

Nominate anyone for the WotY.

My thanks to you boss.

I nominate piosenniel for Wight of the Year. The RPG moderators really do deserve more recongnition.

And I also nominate davem for the Award for outstanding writing in a discussion. He always seems to have a good response along with a little sarcasm in it.

It's like Olds, but NEW!



This week, the second story is written by Rune!

Also, Antarctica's third favourite comedy duo...

[Rune Son of Bjarne]

The story behind that article is that I was in Finland this summer and met Spawn and Lommy. . . We talked about Hookbill's paper and I for one was keen on writting an article about our meeting to it.

Before we said our farewells, we got our picture taken and in this one we all loked weird/tired and that createt the idea of us getting a sleeping disorder.

ME-Idol's Wilwa Abdul Speaks Up!
By Glirdan Tirithedain

This weak, I was able to catch up with the lovel Wilwa Abdul on her thoughts about ME-Idol.

Glirdan - Ms. Abdul? Ms. Abdul!?

Wilwa - Please, call me Wilwa.

G - Okay, thank you Ms.- I mean Wilwa. Do you think I could ask you a few questions about Middle-Earth Idol?

W - I would be delighted.

G - Thank you! My first question. What is it like working with Glirdy Jackson and Sleepy Cowell?

W - Glirdy is a real cool guy, lots of fun to work with. Sleepy is rather rude sometimes, he makes untrue jokes about me, he rarely agrees with me, he looks through my underwear drawer, and he's just an all around jerk, but once you get past all that, he's a delight to work with. *puts on fakish looking smile*

G - Oh I can imagine. Just seeing him on the show I get the imperssion of how rude he is! But it still must be wonderful to work with someone as experienced as him. But what do you think of Vala Seacrest?

W - Vala is wonderful! She's a great gal, and I love working with her. She also has great taste in fashion, which I really admire in a person

G - How do you think the competition is going so far?

W - I think the competition is going very well. There haven't been any injories, large explosions, deadly virus outbreaks or llama stampedes so I think everything is going great.

G - Do you have a favorite to win?

W - I can't possibly choose. All of the remaining contestants are very talented and whoever wins will have deserved it and I'll be very happy for them.

G - Very true. Would you return if ME Idol continued into a Season two?

W - I'm not sure if I would. With me returning to school I doubt my scheduel would permit it. But if ME Idol does go into a season 2 I will definetely be a voter and I will be keeping track of everything that happens.

G - I see. As for my last question, I heard that you have a drinking problem. Is this true?

W - Uh......no....where on earth did you hear such a thing?!? *glares at Sleepy Cowell* Of course I don't *hick* have a drinking problem.

With that inter view over, I shall be moving onto my next judge, and probably the coolest of the three. So watch out for my next article on the judges. But a little closer to today, watch for my weekly interview with the Middle-Earth Idol Evictee.

Look here for the un-edited version of Rune's lovely picture of Doom.

I thought this weeks Phantom and alien was a bit Risky, but no one has complained yet... Now, anyone want to guess how long Alien has left to live?

[Meneltarmacil]

Now, anyone want to guess how long Alien has left to live?

About 1/1000th of a nanosecond, given the phantom's unstoppableness. (Is that actually a word?) At least Death's right there for him if that happens.
