Indeed, I second that, I'm very impressed with the posts so far, from the more conventional prose to the impromptu poetry! [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] And Carlas, thankyou [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Yup, we're going to make RPG history, and the good guys are not going to win!

Keep up the good work, ladies and gents. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

EDIT: Also, please note that the time scale has been moved on to the next morning, the morning of the depature. However, do feel free to post a post for the night before, so long as you catch up at the end.

Thankyou.

oh, sorry Pio, I think I've left mine on a couple times now, I'll try to remember. Sorry about that. [img]smilies/frown.gif[/img]

Aman, i don't know what impromptu poetry is, but seeing as how i'm the only one who wrote poetry, thanks (i think)

It was a compliment [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

A note: until everyone has posted that they have met with the others (and do feel free to be a little late if you think it is in character [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]), or at least that they are up and coming, please do not move forward so we have set off on the quest. I would like to make sure everyone is here before we set off. Thanks [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Ok, finally got the post up! [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Pyroclastic-If there is anything you need changed, PM me as soon as possible! Thanks.

All Orcs- If you guys have any more ideas for the revolt, PM me. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Dwarves: in a few days I will depart on a journey of my own. I will be away for almost three weeks... half the game! I *may* be able to post while I am away but cannot promise. (I will try...)

Meanwhile, please feel free to interact with my character (Lîs / Lîn) as much as you like til I return. Have fun. Please don't marry her off! But she can get into as many quarrels (including fistfights) as you like while I am gone, and anything else you can think of within the reasonable (and proper) Shire rules.

Thank you mark 12_30 for the guidlines regarding your character and for the advance notice. We'll miss you!

We need to hear from some more dwarves before we can move forward and thank you for the orc post, Carlas !

Carlas,
Your post is just great. How like an orc to go about insulting people out of hand like that, good job. you're getting more orcish by the minute! [img]smilies/evil.gif[/img]

I'll wait to see what Lugnush has to say about Uzgash's plan before I write my next post. I'm sure he has a few thoughts on the matter. Oh boy.
~Pyro~

Wonderful posting everybody!

Mali hasn't joined the group yet, but I plan on doing a forwarding post sometime tomorrow evening... [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Keep up the good work everybody!

Cheers!
Imladris

No worries, Imladris, I will be posting for Malí soon! So sorry for my sudden disappearance from this game - it's been a bit hectic with Mid-Year exams. But those buggers are over now so I'll have more time. I'll edit this post when I have filled in my save, which should be tonight or tomorrow morning!

-Aylwen [img]smilies/redface.gif[/img]

Edit - my save was filled in last night! Onward, Dwarves! [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

<font size=1 color=339966>[ 4:54 PM February 05, 2004: Message edited by: Aylwen Dreamsong ]

Alright I have done the forwarding post! The dwarves are now travelling towards Mirkwood!

Thank you, Aylwen for you post. I'm sorry if I sounded impatient because I wasn't....

Cheers!
Imladris

Question: Is there a certain amount of time we're suppost to spend in one place, or do we just move along as soon as everyone has posted?

When the game owners decide to move forward, one of us will announce it and do a forwarding post. There is no set time, but we would like everybody to have at least posted once before we move on. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Cheers!
Imladris

Cool!

BTW, Imladris, I love your Signature! Bill and Ted is awesome!

Loni is walking with the rest of the group now.. and about my last post- I'm sorry, but it was way too tempting not to steal a pile of sausages! I mean really, what dwarf seriously doesn't like sausages [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img] (besides, he needed some breakfast [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img])

Hello.

I'm sorry about the long wait, but I've now filled in my save for Lugnush, the Orc.

Fellow orcs; let the game begin. [img]smilies/evil.gif[/img]

ANNOUNCEMENT
 

Note to All Players

The move to the new board restored all your signatures to previous game posts.

Don’t bother fixing them!

Just remove signatures from the new posts you place on the game.

~*~ Pio, Shire Mod

ok, that works for me.. someone else post on the acual game! please!

Unavoidable absence
 

Due to things beyond my control, I now have limit internet access and thus cannot post as often as I could wish, which doesn't seem to matter since the game is....lagging. *cough* ;)

Anyway, the dwarves have just left the Lonely Mountain and are on their way to Mirkwood. *eery music*

Oward Dwarves! Hopefully all the players found the new forum....

Cheers!
Imladris

Ok, sorry to hear that though imladris. Poor internet! lol

ooh! eery music!

Well I have made it to the new forum, but I haven't seen Pyro lately. He should hopefully be back soon, and will probably have another great orc post ready. Let's get this game rolling! :)

Oh, and by the way: Has anyone spoken to Mercy of the Valar lately? She (he?) hasn't answered any of my messages and I just haven't seen Mercy around at all. :confused:

Hmm, I've also made it through the sometimes confuzzling new forum, and I'm definitely overdue for a post here. I'll get one up tonight or tomorrow...

-Aylwen

Yeah, sorry about my absence. I didn't mean to fall on my computer and break the modem hook up, it just sort of happned. So now I'm stuck using the school computers whenever I have a spare moment. Major bummer. (I'm not really a slang using teeny-bopper, I've just been at school too long, and it's unavoidable at this point!)

Lets see here, what's Uzgash up to? How about this: I'll have him talk to "The Chief", thereby revealing something of the The Chief's character for you guys to work with. If you don't mind, I may drag Lugnush and Nazklash into the orc chiefs' argument, maby have them standing around or something? I'd like to have Chief Turgrog killed, or perhaps tied up and left for dead before the Dwarves get to Moria. A power struggle while fighting the Dwarves would be lovely. Perhaps some injurys could add to the ill emotions? I aspire to have my next post here by Monday afternoon. Until then, march on brave Dwarves! We eagerly await your doom!
~Pyro~

My Absence
 

Hey y'all. Sorry I haven't been posting. It's a long story. First of all, after the change in the forum, i needed a new password, so a asked it to be sent to my email. I get on the web using an airport, but i need a phone line to acess my email. For some reason, the info for the dial up was gone, so i spend a week trying to figure out how to fix it! i just fixed it like...30 seconds ago. Just letting you know i didn't forget y'all!



~~~~~Cheerio~~~~~~

Everyone Please Note

If you find an edit by me on your post, it means your signature has been removed.

Please try to remember to do so yourself.

~*~ Pio, Game Moderator

In all fairness to your fellow gamers, can everyone please remember to fill in your SAVES within 24 hours.

Thanks!

~*~ Pio

oops
 

Is there anyone out there who sees a white dot in the top-left hand corner of the red circle icon thingie in the Shire forum index? If you do see it, what does it mean?

The white dots show what forums you have posted in! :)

Saves
 

Sorry! My bad! I had no internet access yesterday.

I'll fill it up now.

As Mercy of the Valar has not answered any PMs that have been sent to her from Carlas and from myself, and since she has not posted on either the discussion or game thread, I think it is safe to say that she is not with us anymore and that her character is an NPC.

Carry on!

Cheers,
Imladris

I regret to announce that Uzgash's post has been delayed until I finish my English essay, which is due tomorrow. Therefore I strongly urge my fellow orcs to post as they like until my return. I plan on having Uzgash's next post up by no later than Friday afternoon. I had an unexpected bout of writers block this weekend, I'm sure you can all sympathise. So sorry about the delay, please don't wait on me! I'm absolutely flexable as to plans for the revolt.

"The Cabbage is nothing but a colliflour with a college education!"
 

Melisil, all of a sudden Loni hates me? That hurts! :mad: just kidding! i'll get over it somehow. :D

I just want to take the time to ask y'all a question: Is my poetry good or is it disrupting the flow of the RPG?


PS: If you're wondering about my subject about the cabbage and the college education, that is a quote by Mart Twain i learned in my english class about 6 months ago!

Orcs
 

Pyro- I wrote another post about what I last PMed you about (I believe), so if you want to see it first I can PM it to you. :) Good luck with the essay, I'm terrible at them.

Oro- Sorry for making you check through the huge thing, your a dear!

Everyone- So another orc post should be up shortly! :D

Ladies and gents,

I must plead pardon for not having posted in some time...thankfully, my computer should be here tomorro if Murphy shall not strike and I will have more time to keep track of the game.

Balin and Flori have just had an argument, which may or may not be finished depending on Aman *evil Calvin grin* and, if your characters happend to have overheard it (Balin was getting a bit excited), please react accordingly.

Cheers all! And have a smoke too...:smokin:

Imladris

Loni hates?
 

Loni hates Nali? When did that happen? I didn't say that, did I? Loni liked the poetry.. 0.o

The Perky Ent and Melisil , please check your PMs. :) And no, you guys are not in trouble. :) ;)

"Why shouldn't truth be stranger than fiction? Fiction has to stick to possibilities"
 

Is there any special events that will take place during the travel, or does that depend on what people post?

BTW: I got your PM, Imladris! Thanks! It's won't happen again! Promise :rolleyes:

PS: that quote was also from Mark Twain. The meaning of that quote is

Dude, as long as you don't do anything anti Tolkien, or anything drastic enough to change the plot outline you are free to do what you want...in fact, I encourage it! It will make the game interesting and lively!

About the PM: it's all cool Perky Ent.

Cheers!
Imladris

I apologise for my somewhat prolonged absence. Me and my friend's family were in Lapland for a couple of days, and it came so suddenly that I did'nt have the time to warn you lot..

Many apollogies, yes-yes

STATION!
 

Cool! Question leading twords the end of the RPG, (not that i want it to end!) how long do the dwarves stay in Moria before they kick the bucket?

PS: That station thingie was from Bill and Ted, but you probably already knew that...Imladris!!!


PPS: I might not be on the downs for a while because i live in New Orleans and if you know anything, it's Mardi Gras right now, so i'll be at parties and parades 24-7! Muses, Indemion, Hermes, Dyonisus, and of course, Elijah Wood and Dominic Monaghan will be at Bacus and Orpheus!

Laissez le bon ton roule
