Just for Fun A forum section to lighten your day with jokes, funny links, and things that make you laugh. Keep them clean and remember this is a family server.


Welcome to the Layonara forums!

Layonara is so much more than a game. We started off as a tabletop Dungeons and Dragons campaign more than a decade ago. Since then we have developed into a fantasy world with as much compelling and engrossing detail as you will find anywhere.

Our current showcase is a Neverwinter Nights version of Layonara, where our world comes to life in a finely polished persistent world which you can play free of charge. These forums are set up to support and accentuate our player's experiences, but it goes far beyond that.

After years of passionate effort, our world is so well developed, so detailed, so refined that any of the handbooks, maps, historical accounts, legends, descriptions of artifacts, creature reports, character biographies, short stories, novels, movies and original art which populate these forums can surely serve as resources or inspiration for your own fantasy endeavors, whatever they may be. And our world is endlessly evolving, so resources are frequently added and updated.

There are also years of sage advice and commentary on role-playing, gaming and online community development stored in these forums. If camaraderie is what you seek, we offer that too. Our community is as active and supportive as you're likely to find on the internet. In short, these forums are a resource for you to use for whatever purpose or project brought you here.

We're confident that you will find what you are looking for, and likely, substantially more.

Please be our guest and browse around the forums which are available to you. As you do, keep in mind that you are sampling only a portion of what Layonara has to offer. Membership in our community is free, and allows you to establish a Layonara identity to pose your questions and share your thoughts on the forums. When you join you'll also be able to communicate privately to other members (PMs), establish and respond to polls, upload and download content and access many other special features. Registration is fast, simple and absolutely free. So please. join our community today!

I dun really care which one, but I really wish that ONE of them would finally take control. Of course, since I'm American I don't really care too much about German domestic policy. =)

ah ha, a simple matter of ' ip dip dog... you know the rest.
I won't bother voting since the woman looks like she is on drugs and that bloke looks like he really wishes he was at home playing Layonara.

plus I don't know much about them...........infact, i don't know anything about them....

sure there are some more parties in Germany, but only that two parties (SPD and CDU) have a canditate for the chancellor. It's very confusing here in germany, a new chancellor was not yet found. So we don't know who of them will it be...
Nevermind, there are funny new names for a coalition now, called the "jamaica-coalition" because the colors of the parties, black for CDU, green for the Greens and finally yellow for FDP...
No idea if they'll make such a coalition

If I should choose I would vote for Schröder just because he is red, but most of my friend claim that i am a communist, hence I may be colored in that respect...

I know but you didn't give me that choise... Besides it was what i consider the lesser of 2 evils...

By the way as a Dane from nord Schleswich I know what "die linke" means. I have watched N3, ARD and ZDF since I was a wee one. Not only am I ¼ German but we only had 4 TV channels one danish and 3 German...

*gets tears in his eyes* But the kids nowadays the have all kinds of channels, and when they go to school in the wintertime they have both shoes and trousers. In my days we had to walk 10 km to ....

Ich wirklich interessiere mich nicht, wem gewinnt. Ich denke, daß ich für die Frau auf dem rechten fur wähle, das niemand für sie gewählt hat. Ich fühle für sie traurig. lassen Sie die beste Person gewinnen!

Neat picture of berlin at dawn.
I haev been to berlin once Since I am a city person I like it. It is big, lots of shopping, cool places and neat buildings.

Nice to see a female Chancellor... or is it Kanzlerin?
I just think it is kind of strange to see the two oppositions form a new goverment. That would never happen here... then again, I am not so much into german politics. Middle-left SPD? and ...conservative christian rightwing CDU? Or, is it more liberal than conservative?

Btw, aren't the colours black, yellow and green those of Sachsen? Why did they chose to call it jamaica in that case... I seem to remember it annoyed them jamaicans... I might have missread though....

yeah yeah, it's all a bit difficult dear...
and you're right, we would call it 'Kanzlerin'
and you're right, SPD is mid-left and CDU is conservative...
Dunno how they call it Jamaica-Coalition, however, now he have a 'Big coalition'
Dunno the colors of Sachsen or any other county here
For myself I wasn't yet in Berlin, but I definitly will one day
Not yet found a good statistic with the results of the votation, sorry!
