About Wotmasters
You've been reading all about this site, how much attitude it has and how bloody hillarious it is. So, you decide to check it out, and before you know it, wotmasters has got you giggling like a wine-drunken Elayne with an ever-so-helpful attendent. And then, just like the Sniffer in question, you start wondering "Why the flaming flame did this flaming flamer do that? What the flames is up with that, and who the flame does this flamer think he flaming is?"
If you ever find yourself even remotely thinking anything like that while at this site, then it's fulfilled its purpose. And if you don't think that, well, you'd better start and you'd better start soon, or you'll be shipped first-class to Shayol Ghul for therapudal treatments involving the figs & mice as well as Semihirage.. Cause wotmasters is the most arrogant, egotistical, sarcastic, cynical, and bloody funniest Wheel of Time website you'll ever find. And, yes folks, it's true, we even match the competition's prices.
Back in the Age of Legends, normally referred to as the year 1998, I decided to make my own website. Being the Wheel of Time fanatic that I am, I used WoT as my site's theme. Of course, that site was on Angelfire, and it sucked more than a hungry Draghkar. It was called, of all the silly flaming things, Lair of the Dragon Thief. So, after actually bothering to learn what I was doing instead of monkeying around all the time, that got overhauled, revamped, moved to various hosts, and was renamed The Stolen WoT Pages. Once I browbeat Frenzy into creating the weekly quizzes (read: she nagged until I finally uploaded them), the site got regular visitors of around two hundred a month. And, in the words of Monty Python, there was much rejoicing. So, deciding that web-design was actually fun once did right, and being that I'm a greedy sot of a thief, the idea for wotmasters.com was born. And man-oh-man, the world's still crying over that sad, sad fact.
Finally, in 2001, I nabbed some help from friends, learned much more about web design, and created the new, larger, more detailed, and attitude-charged site. Yep; supposedly this is it.
About the creator, "Dragon Thief"
So who is this un-masked non-marvel un-known far and wide as the Bumlord, this "Dragon Thief", you ask? Flame me if I know,
folks, I'm just here for the ride. Or, you know, it's slightly possible that I could be lying. Cause, you know, I am. My real
life initials are B.S. (what's that tell you?), I'm 22 years old, and am slightly given towards unfavorable male tendencies
like missing the toilet bowl at nighttime.

I started reading the Wheel of Time somewhere in the middle of 1997 with a paperback version of The Shadow Rising I bought at the local Wal-Mart. The cover actually sold me more than the storyline at that point. (Believe it or not, as long as you have no clue who the characters are supposed to be, Mr. Sweet did a decent job on that cover.) Anyways, I got hooked, read the rest of the series, waited another year for A Path of Daggers, then two more for Winter's Heart, then two more for Crossroads of Twilight, and then another flaming lifetime for Robert Jordan to finish the series. In the between-times, however, I bought all of the books in hardcover, including what a group of us refer to as the BWB (Big White Book), which is more commonly known as The World of Robert Jordan's The Wheel of Time, The Illustrated Guide, or merely the Guide.

About Dragon Thief's minion helpers
Unbeknownst to the general public, at least before reading this sentence, I am a tyranical regime leader who holds in thrall my hordes of minion helpers, forcing them to do all of the work while I sit back and enjoys the fun. In reality, however, those "minions" are about as worthless a group of helpers as I guy could have, as each and every one of them is as lazy and arrogant as me. Can you just image the authority issues to be worked out in such an attitude-infused group?
So, who does help me out with all sorts of helpful goodness? No one, really, but this list of people below will have to do for now, cause they're all I've got.
| frenzy | quiz contents, custom hand-drawn artwork, other unsavory items. |
| infidel badger | novice sections, other unasked-for smart-assed comments |
| tremul | custom scripting, Linux promotionals |
| layla | Celtic parallels, all gizzard-related problems |
| uno | Norse parallels, puffs of pipe-smoke |
| moonshadow | for random moments of boredom-inspired inspiration |
| hamilton cline | the faces on the Sniffing Star logo |
| theorylanders | cause too much insanity is an oxymoron |
| Online Artists | cause I stole your work, but you let me cause you're nice |
| Everyone else | for nothing, you bums! (but thank you for visiting the site) |
