Bilbo's Clan and Role Assignments

[Kev]

This is so exciting, the Baggins Clan look resplendent in their new costumes

I'd like to see the Old Guard and Violent Squad top this.

When we have our sig we'll be unstoppable

[Kev]

I like it!! Nice one, Gimli!

Now I have a very technical question to ask as I am computer illiterate....how does one go about putting the picture in as an avatar?

Miles it's easy.

Simply right click on the picture of Gandalf and save it to your harddrive.

Next go to the control panel options, select avatar, and then look for the option where is says 'upload from location on harddrive' or words that effect.

Click the browse button there to go to your computer, find and click on the picture and it will load it as your avatar.

Save the changes and you are done, and officially Gandalf!

Hahaha!!

Did it and I didnt need to pull out a single strand of hair in the process. Easy to do. Cheers, Baggins!!

Great stuff Miles, now you finally look the part.

Donny, don't feel bad if you can't join I understand.

Although as I understand it, according to JT Rock, the 'Old Guard' arn't a clan at all but merely a group of veteran individuals striving to uphold the traditions of Saddo's.

As a longtime poster myself, along with Miles and Dizaster, the Baggins Clan also believes such values are to be desired and would seek ourselves to conduct our clan affairs with restrained dignity and with respect for Saddo traditions, affirming every member to be valuable in the eyes of Saddo.

You could become a member of Clan Baggins without comprimsing your committment to the Saddo Way.

I'm sure the Old Guard would understand, as after all they are above such petty jealousies and sqaubbles.........

Yep, looking pretty nifty. I remember I used to have a picture of Tyson eating Holyfields ear as my avatar. This new picture presents a far more civilised image to the world.

[Dizaster]

The Fellowship of the Ring Extended edition especially, is the greatest piece of cinema ever made imo. Perfect from beginning to end, as I'm sure Legion will agree.

I desperately want to buy a copy of that!!! I had all of the regular editions when they all came out, but I one day saw The Return of the King extended edition and had to buy it... After watching it right through, the extra scenes add much more than just the extra 30 minutes or so of viewing time.. It gives more depth... That was years ago now, and i've been dieing to get the other 2 extended editions.. Just 3 weeks ago I found The Two Towers extended and bought that... Havn't watched it yet though as I reallllllly want to get Fellowship extended and watch them in order....

Even for a real purist as Bilbo said, looking at the entirety of the books, and how well Jackson did to fulfill the huge vision and scope that the books had, it's really hard to imagine it being much better than how they turned out...

Some people complained about how a lot of the tradition was presented as "Old English/Celtic" when there isn't any mention of such in the book..

But I think it was a great way to really give the scenes in the movie a deep tradition through that celtic image...

I am confused JT, so is the Old Guard a clan like mine or not?

If not, why do you object to Old Guard becoming part of Baggins Clan?

And if so, why do you ridicule my clan for being as such, when in truth your group is the same?

Its just the way it is,we will not dillute our lineage... Old Guard is a royal crest and seal of the Old School Saddo covenant... our members are idenifed and proud.. Clan Baggins will not fit

Again the only one confused here is you

Take heart though I typed it real slow this time so you can understand... Gee elitists huh? I dont know how.. We have no hierachy we are a mutual group owned by its members... and of Course the ONLY group endorsed by Saddo himself... Also we are the only group that dosent take our dog and pony show on the main board... We are dignified in our attitiude and appearance

Ok.

1) No Hierarchy, other than you need 1000 posts and 18 months membership to be considered. Anybody else is NOT welcome. That's a pretty elitist heirachry if you ask me.

2) Endorsed by Saddo? I presume by this you are referring to his 'nice idea' post in the Old Guard Thread. A full endorsment indeed.

3) Dog and Pony Show on the main board, JT no Clan Baggins member ever posts in any of the Boxing boards, you should really know this by now. We exist only in the hidden forums, plus we are still saving for a pony.

Sorry Bilbo, I forgot to mention.. I took my Baggins Clan Jack Russell out for a quick run in Boxing Talk earlier this morning... It was like, 5am and didn't think anyone would notice...
I've learnt from my mistake now though.. He likes to run around in here anyway and no one seems to mind that he poops everywhere..

[Julius Rain]

I've got Rains's Avatar below... I'm having trouble with the other members who's roles are taken out of the book, but weren't in the movie, as there isn't every many pictures of them.. Only some pretty badly drawn ones...

It'll be great when the signature is up and running, then the entire team will look sharp..

Until then, i'll do my best to make uniform Avatars for everyone possible

Looks Great but I had already made one, if its ok I would like to keep the one i have on now

But the new one matches the rest of the Clan Rains!

We want to all have matching Clan costumes. It should be a badge of pride.

Baggins Clan - Pippin.

You are an integral part of the Clan Pippin, you need to wear the official Clan Pippin Badge!

[:::PSL:::]

Of course.. I'm up for any such games which involves the clan...



I'll have to distribute all these once they are ready unless people can collect from here.. Actually, i'll start a "collect your baggins clan avatars here" thread...

Bilbo,

Can you pick another role? Merry is one ugly mofo!

Plus, isn't the word "merry" associated with the word "happy" or "GAY"?

[Gandalf]

Ive chosen to accept the role of Gandalf because its good to be able to transform into a wizard every now and then. Simple as. I like old guard and Im all for it too. I think ideologically I am an old school Saddonian and have a lot in common with other long time members. I wouldnt mind being a member of both actually but was won over by a fond interest in taking on the wise old Gandalf persona. He has magical powers and all that sort of thing. And seems pretty wise. Maybe as I begin to fit into the character interesting things may happen.
