'not sure why I'm posting this. Maybe because I'm entering that dark time when this years events come to an end and before next years events start. But heck, just post something funny, something nostalgic, something...uh...you get the idea. I'll start. Good old CCH video. I'm not positive but I know I met either Sinzan or some other gnome from a famous video in Icelad years/decades ago. [Anyone have a video of the ranger simulator wireframe?]
Just a song for those that are lfg / bored. In aventuria they are called The days of the nameless (god). It is based on that: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twelfth_Night_(holiday)
Although their series was based on WoW... here's the music videos by The Guild: Do You Wanna Date My Avatar Game On I'm the One That's Cool A Christmas Raid Carol

I was just going to post that Fansy page, it took me a while to find it, but you beat me to it I just realized. I NEVER see more than 1-2 SGs in SRO nowadays. We was robbed!
This one is a classic for me: Attack of the Killer Gnome I was invisible and running through the Karanas one day when I noticed a young gnome near the gypsy camp. He was fighting a lion and though it looked like he would win the battle, being a fellow gnome, I decided to help the guy out. I targeted the lion, clicked on my mesmerize spell, then *started* to type: "I'm mesmerizing the lion for you." I got as far as: "I'm " when I remembered that I had replaced my mesmerize spell with an Area of Effect mesmerize spell... and that I was standing next to an NPC enchantress. Gulp. My movement keys are mapped to "w a s d" so I frantically stabbed at my keyboard, trying to MOVE and interrupt the spell. I forgot that I was in typing mode. The gypsy enchantress didn't like my attempt to mezz her so she promptly charmed me and made me go after the gnome I had been trying to *save*. I watched in horror as my peace-loving character, knife flailing like a crazed sushi chef, chased the little guy down and stabbed him to death. I found my victim later and apologized profusely... I even gave him a nice weapon and a piece of armor. He was great about it, and laughed when I told him what happened. He said he didn't know WHAT was going on. One minute he was fighting a lion, the next minute a strange gnome appeared out of NOWHERE, announced: "I'm wwwaaaddd", then sliced him up like Freddy Krueger.
