I wish I had £40 million! Sure, it's a whack of dough but with all those paying tourists it's a fixer-upper with a mortgage-helper!

I say all the Hellboarders pitch in and we can have a time share. :)
I have £.0004 million; all we need is £39.0006 million more. Come on, look in those couch cushions.
hmmmm...castle? or iphone?:confused:

Or coolest Hellboarder clubhouse ever!!
I call dibs on the uppermost room in the little round tower tucked away in the corner.
(I have about £0.0003 million)

Since I don't even how much a Pound IS....I'll sleep outside in the woods...by that nice rock wall...

Not to spoil the party, but I read it would also cost us several million to renovate it for a clubhouse. I can give about $10 to it.

I could chip in $200, whatever that is in...I don't have a euro button. I call spooky attic, or basment.
parrish
01-11-2007, 07:13 AM
Well, since Vakanai said he'd give 200, I'll bump up to $11 dollars. Any room is fine, but if I have to share it with someone I call the top bunk.

I got $13.31. I call the attic!

So cool! I call a tower room too! Preferably with a window out of which to go squirell-fishing.
And may I put forth a motion to the club that we should install a water slide...
...(was going to say "OF BLOOD" but thought this might be tactless and disgusting, thoughts)

This may help you to pick your room. (http://brancastlemuseum.ro/ghid_en.htm)
I'm now thinking that I might like the room with the secret passageway.
I'll take the room what passes for the medieval washroom.The privy? I believe that it's just a seat with a hole in it leading to a chute in the wall leading to a pile outside. Do you want the seat or the pile? :D

$20 I call the hall and woods surrounding it Mwahahahaha
and maybe even that dinky little bell house on top.

Whats needed is a Good Credit Score and a Quick'ns loan for $78-80 million US.
Some sources say that the asking price is inflated by as much as
25% so a little dickering may be involved.
Figure by targeting the Goth community world wide and
getting Universal Studios interested then this is Do-able.
I'll have my guy work on the papers.;)
The Biedermeier Saloon should suit me just fine.

01-11-2007, 09:41 AM
Ooo, okay. I call the saloon floor.
("Room of hunting trophies" **shiver** Dare you to spend the night in there)
Otto: That's a good idea...good thinking there...but what if, collectively, we...STOLE THE MONA LISA!

The Mona Lisa Heist was done back in MARCH of 2001. A copy is on display
with the original now in the collection of... but, wait... I've said too much...

Or we could steal the Hope Diamond. Or sell lemonade. Red lemonade. Red with the blood of Cthulu...or regular lemonade, either is fine.

The Hope Diamond is a myth. Sorry.:D

Maybe one of us is the decendant of Vlad and can claim that the castle is actually their property and that it was stolen hundreds of years ago...
Anyone into genealogy?

This is a great idea! Someone has to have some...wait...
OMG, I've never let this slip, but my real name is...Vladi Vlad Vladenberg!
Why didn't I realize this before?!! The castle is mine! ALL MINE! I mean OURS! ALL OURS! Totally getting a water slide now!
SUITE!:D

ahahahhaha! Awesome.
Let's call it the Magnificent Cthulu Manor of Darkness.
I want what ever room has a big fire place. Close to people because I'll get scared if I'm too far...and I need a mini-fridge and internet connection.
And let's paint the roofs another colour, orange is so 90's!

A Pound sterling is around two dollars at the moment.
Having lived in a castle and being surrounded by them here, I hope the place has adequate heating. I tell ya, those flagstones can be bloody cold on the feet in winter when you go on a midnight perambulate to the bathroom. Note to self - remember slippers and hot water bottle.
I have about £15 and a couple of cows I can sell - I want a bedroom by the inner courtyard, that way you don't get quite so many draughts.

Of course we wouldn't exile you, that's what Kareoke is all about! Sucking! Par exemple:
Suckin at the neck of heartache!

There really is a Hope Diamond. It was stolen in the summer of '94 by the Russian mob and was held for auction in Georgia until the swat team came. Also, I call the laboratory if there is one.

There are about 100 of us on another board trying to figure out how to buy it! Man...that woould be so totally awesome, I'm jsut waiting for some crazy celeb to buy it. For some reason I can see Nicholas Cage owning it.

I was thinking either James Earl Jones or for some strange reason the host of The Biggest Loser who used to star in Sabrina the Teenage Witch and Hollywood Squares.

James Earl Jones is a... no, wait. He's real. Carry on.:D

You better beleive James Earl Jones is real, best darn actor ever. I wonder if there is a fan club I can join?
