The people scattered gold-dust before my horse's feet;
But now I am a great king, the people hound my track
With poison in my wine-cup, and daggers at my back."

TMS has us at 11 guys. Press that blue button, no need to sign up! Just vote!

4 votes and we could jump 2 places.

I wonder if this event is history page news.

How is it we only have 80 Votes on TMS?  Vote ya Fooks!

Ah well you should just kill those PCs. They're not worth the time of plotting creatively against.

I just realized I can vote on TMS from my phone, you know.....when I'm not near my computer....I would never vote on both devices every day going forward.

Or ya know, your home computer, work computer, mobile phone, vpn... it's all based on ip address.  I imagine that many of the higher ranking muds take advantage of this to retain their spots at the top.

doesn't the term "movember" have something to do with prostate glands and mustaches? I fucking hate both of those things so I am in full support of Movember meaning Mo'VotEmber instead. Fuck prostates and mustaches, I fucking hate both of them.

(well, maybe I hate mustaches more)

We're on pace to get around 275-300 new accounts this month, and I see several promising newbie accounts with lots of hours logged this month already. Let's keep doing it, guys!

I, personally, am a big fan of my prostate's work.

I, personally, am a fan of gaining ranks on TMS.  In that vein, we only need 22 more votes to the next rank!  We should be able to easily attain that with how many people we have on the GDB.

Keep voting! We're still on pace to get 300 new accounts this month. That's really fabulous. Let's keep going.

That's good. And with the current stellar work being put into the mud the retention rate on those accounts should be a positive surprise!
Modern concepts of fair trials and justice are simply nonexistent in Zalanthas. If you are accused, you are guilty until someone important decides you might be useful. It doesn't really matter if you did it or not.

        

Even the little white bellied one is trying.

We can see the five spot from here!

I'd like to think we got #5 because I voted.

You can feel this way too.

Vote.

The four spot will be harder. I think we have to go for it, if only to make sure we keep #5.

It's only 64 votes up.  If about 40 people voted twice a day, we'd be there.  And we usually have more than 40 players at peak, so it's doable!

Is that the top five? Oh yes it is...

We're losing ground, only 2 votes away from dropping back to #6.

One vote from getting fifth back, guys, come'n.

Still on track for 300+ new accounts this month. And I see a handful of promising newbie accounts who have put in a lot of hours already and have played over the course of several days. You guys are working it!

#5 is 10 places away and we have 50+ people on right now.  If you haven't voted yet, you should!  We could take back #5.

TMC still won't let me vote so I give up.

Remember that we're the best game in the world and that one day the votes ought to reflect that. Vote!

We are three votes from losing 6th place. Let's not sink in the ranks, vote!

We're 5 votes behind!

We've been killing it in TMC all month, and I think that should help a lot!  It'd be amazing to have this again:
