  1. @ZCerberus: can we please please please call you 'grand-daddy' from now on? --- Indeed, its GoH which got me out of my dark ages, so I hope this community will live on! (there are other reasons as well of course, like the great fun and the tons of things I've learned)
  2. Wow. Just, wow. I think others have already written what I'm thinking, but I still want you to know that we (or at least, I) truly appreciate this look on your life, plus that I'm sorry for your mom. --- Wait, they were veterans when I joined, so if they're the "GoH kids", my generation would be the... "GoH embryos"? --- That would be amazing to see, can't wait
  3. Just my two cents, for what its worth (even though I've not been very active for the last few months). * Even though my confidence was tried several times during the long waiting period for Book II's challenge, I still trust the leadership. I wouldn't need elections or so, but as someone else has already mentioned, its very important that there are enough leaders (to share the work etc) and I'd say that's why people are volunteering. Especially the surprise when a new challenge comes up, and the abilities for the community to shape the storylines are highly appreciated. Thanks guys * Closing Nocturnus is a pity, but I would understand it if necessary. On the other hand, I'm also feeling a bit concerned that the variation of styles in Valyrio is not as big as the Nocturnian range. Of course, there would still be possibility to build in the Darklands, but I really can't imagine people like Lord Vladivius or Blufiji swearing fealty to any other guild... * I like that we are divided in guilds, for things like a scoring system as Book I possessed but also for some good old trashtalking (as they who know me will surely confirm my fondness of it )! Still, we're also united, as we've all got the same goal: developping Historica, fleshing out the world, ... I feel like in other games, for example BoBS (which I've enjoyed as well, don't get me wrong), the division is bigger than the unity, and that's a real pity IMHO. Hence, I don't feel the need for the things like a PM per guild (though of course, their use has been proven very well by things like the Algus Saga, so I can't say I don't want them). That's about it, my apologies if I was ranting and you haven't understood anything about it! (I feel like my English gets worse instead of better)
  4. Some sweet MOC's you've got there According to an ancient traditions, dating back to the very first SJ edition, some Avalonian builders will put their heads together and roll up their sleeves to show a part of our beautiful guild in the collab category!
  5. 3D-chess, and he outsmarted us all
  6. It reminds me of my favoured LOTR title, the Return of the King [insert spectacular music] Welcome home, lord Buress!
  7. Absolutely a stunning dragon, almost a pity it distracts from the great base I really like the colourscheme, using sand green in both the dragon and the landscaping is risky, but it worked out I think. The brown finishing touches are gorgeous
  8. @TheLordOfBricks I can for sure see that, and it looks good! Especially that axe
  9. Nice guild pick guys, be very welcome!
  10. Great how I can recognise both the Brickbuilt-influences and your own style! I have to remark that the tudored sections of the white house look a bit blocky, especially under the roof... Still, the more tudor the merrier The market looks very nice, lots of activities going on which is always cool - and having interiors is even cooler These guys in the sewers, on the other hand... I'm curious to see what they're up to!
  11. I pity the man turning that stone around, it defenitely looks like a heavy job! Though I feel like the dark tan wedge plates make the ground just a bit too regular, you have used them very well in the little rockwork patches I also like how you've evaded a flat roof by putting some additional tales on top of it, nice job!
  12. Hereby I, [insert name] of a city yet to be founded and of a background yet to be revealed, pledge fealty to the pearl among the guilds. Up Avalonia, up! Let them fear the Dragon's Flight! ---- OOC: yiehaaaaaa! I've been waiting for this so long (you don't wanna knowhow old that build is, really), I can't believe it's actually happening! A big thanks to the leadership - even though it took some time, you guys did what was needed (great initiative to clear the lore a bit, for example). Also, congratulations to @Henjin_Quilones, seems like you beat me Well deserved, I'd say!
  13. I have never thought of using such big pieces when rockworking, but seems like it works! On the other hand, I'm no real fan of the road pavement, especially the 1x4 and 2x4 tiles are too rectangular for my liking. But you managed to hide it very well under that beautiful wagon! Also thumbups for the vegetation, good job
  14. Such a lovely MOC! I see what you mean about the backside of the rockwork, but that's really the only thing I could remark. The overall landscaping is great, all the greenery makes for a very Avalonian scene, and all the colourful flowers are just I like your stonework as well, as TM said: the round 2x2 tiles create a very non-militaristic, peaceful atmosphere! The different agricultural activities all look good as well, like the wheat and the windmill!
  15. Indeed, the flowers are lovely! I also really like the rounded corner's of the base Looking at the image, I feel like a roof-window could have added just the extra bit, but even without that the house looks very fine (we even got an interior, hurray )!
  16. And the "Best News of the Year" trophy goes to... Have a blast at BW, and I'll cross my fingers for Book III
  17. As said before, these angled walls are gorgeous I like how you used wedge plates to make a walkable slope, though I think it would have looked better a bit irregular. Also a big fan of your variation between rounded (log) pieces and normal reddish brown plates
  18. Looks great! Love how building in other peple's cities would force members to look things up and get in contact
  19. Welcome back, I'd say! I fear there are no current challenges, everyone is awaiting Book III. Freebuilds are always appreciated, though!
  20. Very nice for sure! I have to second Zlatan, the road is bit straight and untextured, especially when compared to the wall, but that's about it. I really like your woodwork, and putting the wall at an angle is just brilliant!
  21. Sounds like a great summary to me! One small remark: this new Queen hasn't been confirmed by the leadership, who're still debating the results of the last challenge. To be honest, I feel like the passivity of the guilds has a lot to do with this indecisiveness, people are just waiting on the end of the Book and the start of a new one, so they know what the world is up to and can build/tell their stories accordingly.
  22. For me two ounces of tan, to remind me how much prettier the green is
  23. Actually, green is green, wether the leaves are just in front of your eyes or dotting the hills on the horizon...
  24. I fear we're not talking about the same guild than, my dear. Considering the amount of factions Kaliphlin is divided into, I'm pretty okay with a third place
