Congratulations Rino! Though I don't visit here as often as I would like, I've found your posts to be quite a blast!
And I notice our Grand Sage - - George Krashos - - also received a promotion. Congrats. I do have to ask, though, why his title wasn't changed to Great Reader?

I am mere days away from my 10,000th post... And then Big Al will finally officially acknowledge me as the Master of Mischief!    |

Pre adverts appears unfair when others moving up the roles get no mention at all. |

Wow, I didn't realize you were so close... I've not been watching the post count as intently as I used to, because most people were far from flipping levels...
So allow me to (pre-emptively!) be the first to contgratulate you, Kentinal! |

| First congratulations to both Kentinal and scererar. And here I'm looking to get excited on my 100th. Good job guys and keep up on the posts and before you know it you will be tied with Wooly or the Sage. ] |

Wizard's First Rule: Chapter 36, Page #397, US Hard Cover (revealed by Zeddicus Zu'l Zorander).
Explanation by Zeddicus Zu'l Zorander: "People are stupid; given proper motivation, almost anyone will believe almost anything. Because people are stupid, they will believe a lie because they want to believe it's true, or because they are afraid it might be true. People’s heads are full of knowledge, facts, and beliefs, and most of it is false, yet they think it all true. People are stupid; they can only rarely tell the difference between a lie and the truth, and yet they are confident they can, and so are all the easier to fool."

Worry not Kentinal.
You'll be busy adjusting to your new "Master of Realmslore" duties soon enough!

Yay me!
I consider this a proud day for Tricksters everywhere. Who do I call about making this an international holiday?
On a more serious note, I'm just happy to have an active community to discuss the Realms and maybe crack a joke or two. I don't think we thank Big Al often enough for everything he's done to give us such a wonderful place to (virtually) hang out. |

I do thank you, though not sure I earned it.
Big Al has staff waved at me a few times after all.
The new robe though might be nicer then the one I have worn a long time as my additions to scrolls slowed and moving up require more. |

| Congratulations both of you . . . I'd say something witty, but the Dragon/Dungeon announcement kind of took the wind out of my sails. |

Aw, heck, that's nothing! Even as a mod, I still have to duck Big Al's staff upon occasion! |

Congratulations, Wooly... well deserved indeed
Blast! It's the Bookwyrm and the "Master of Realmslore" challenge all over again. I'm no longer unique... The Trickster will pay for this!
Seriously, a big furry congratulations Wooly. You've certainly been one of the more curious and fun-loving scribes here at Candlekeep. I've enjoyed having the opportunity to work alongside you, as a mod, and I've come to appreciate many of your insights into not only the Realmslore, but many other non-FR related matters as well. You're a fine addition to any online community.
Here's to the next 10,000...

Yes, congratulations to all. This is a wonderful place and I very much enjoy being here. Oh, and I've remained a Master of Realmslore thanks to the good graces of Alaundo. I didn't think I was quite ready for a promotion to Great Reader. Still lots of work to be done at the 'Keep.

George, your title should be 'Grand Master of Realmslore'!
I am so envious, because Big Al lets you into the library! Maybe you could sneak some tomes into the cellars, hey? |

Well, only to empty the waste bins. But I hope to move up to chief waste bin remover in a couple of years.

Err though the chatter, we have missed congratulations to Asgetrion for achieving status of Master of Realmslore. I wish you well in your earned status.
Edited some spelling. |

Well met
Apologies for my late response, I was busy issuing instruction to reinforce Asgetrion's desk ready for the delivery of new tomes to research 
Congratulations, Asgetrion. 'tis indeed a worthy title. The library wouldn't be the same without thee. Speaking of which, here... here's the duster! |

Thank you, everyone!
I really appreciate how warmly I have been welcomed into Candlekeep, and I feel very privileged and grateful to be able to walk among so many eminent sages and scribes! This is a great honor and I am truly proud to have achieved my fourth star, although being a 'Master of Realmslore' makes me feel a bit uncomfortable - maybe Big Al should change it to 'Master Rat-catcher of the Cellars' or something? |
