No doubt it would become a thread of such might that not seven the Barrow-Wight could stop it. :rolleyes:

I predict that WereWolf XXIX (29): Johnny Depp the Werewolf Strikes will have 78 participants, but the wolves will win because all 10 shirrifs will come forward on Day 1, everyone will try a mass lynching on that day, resulting in 57 deaths, but only two out of the 8 werewolves die. That night, five innocents die(from Werewolves, Black Beorning, Vampire, and two other undecided special characters), leaving 8 wolves and 8 innocents; Wolves Win! :D

The shortness of the game causes a complete collapse in it's popularity. The next game(WW XXX: Not for Virgin Eyes!) has 5 participants. :(

I'm pretty certain that Werewolf Fever will die down now that so many of us students have been forced to return to learning institutions. Games will probably die out in maybe a few months, before erupting again in the Summer holidays.

Hehe. ;) I've already gotten round that, as you noted. However, in the tengwar, Quenya actually only has four letters.

No, the Barrow-Weight will indeed be powerless. I'll warrant the thread will come nine to vanquishing him. :p

I predict that TGWBS, Mith, Oro, Wilwa, Beth and Alca constantly hijacking the Signatures thread for debates on French grammar will be attacked by a mod. The aforementioned will therefore form a Francophonic Union, the F.A. (which would also stand for Fumbledo- Sorry, Frodo's Army) to protect their French-speaking rights.

TGWBS will quickly realised the power of Unions after a week long boycott of the Books forum, and form his own Quenya Union to protect the rights of Quenya speakers all over the site.

The B-W will lose patience will the Unions, declare himself Unquestionable Ruler of All the Downs, dissolve the Unions under punishment of banning, and restore peace and order to the land.

My 400th Post
 

Actually, for me it was Latin, not French.

I predict that the Francophonic Union and the Latin League will form a loose alliance, the Romance Language League of Unions, and will annex Announcements and Obituaries. However, their invasion plans will be halted by the Barrow-Wight's power.

I predict that this thread will move on to a 10th page and then grow and grow until it becomes a thread of Crazy Captions proportions. By then, Crazy captions will be it's own country as will The Isle of Werewolves.

ah the wonderous land of captions, where Gandalf roams un-cloaked and is know as Gandalf the Creepy Uncle, and where PJ frolics with Gimli, and Aragorn runs into glass elevators, they were truly magical times...but then... the pixilated oliphaunts came and Denethor blamed it on the toaster

I predict that I will eventually talke part in the CbC threads. Eventually.....

I also predict that Gil and I will stop dragging everyone's name who participates actively in the Fourtunately/Unfourtunately thread.

I predict that the hostility created in the "Favourite Hobbit" thread between the Bilbo and Sam camps will spread like wildfire. Eventually, the entire Tolkien community will be engulfed in this debate, and will be further divided into one of four groups, namely:
Wingers - Bilbo
Wingers - Sam
Non-Wingers - Bilbo
Non-Wingers - Sam.

Bethberry with delete all her "Unforbidden" threads (except the RPG, obviously).

Morm will teach his baby all about LotR before she can walk. She will be able to quote the Silmarillion at six.

I predict that LOTR Survivor will move on to a 12th page. I also predict that I'll be getting rid of Celeborn in the next few days and have my RETRIBUTION!!!!

I predict that one day, The Barrow Wight will encourage all Downers to save up money in order to buy our own little country and make it all Shire-e. Or Rivendel-e. Either way, there will be a Green Dragon inn, where people will have to narrate their every action. Like so;

"I walked into the inn and sat down at the table. I looked down at the questionable meal that the barmaid had just brought me and frowned. The Green Dragon's food had been going down lately and the staff were beginning to resemble frogs [... ... ... ... ...] I awoke several hour later with a throbbing pain in my head, it was dark outside."

HEY! YOU'RE NOT SUPPOSED TO KNOW THAT YET! :eek: :mad:

How... How?! Have you been paying my brother to sneak into my portfolio and tell you about my latest work?!


Ah! Fine then! I'll become the next Rossetti and won't exhibit any of my current works, then when I finally die at the wonderful age of 40, from a self-performed surgical accident while giving a lecture on The Pub Beautiful, I'll leave all of it to an obscure poet, or just have it donated to The Downs to decorate our future forum's country/island.

How did you know I was working on 'a' jester?! :(

Glirdan will over use the word Retribution and nobody will like it anymore

Frankly, I've never liked it.



It's too 'black and white' for a Socratic method, which I prefer. Having someone admit their wrong, then strive with others to fix it is much more enjoyment.

~Aesthete

~less than a year from now:

I sue the Barrowdowns for my soul back.

I predict that I will eventually last over three Days in a WW game and that when I tell the village I'm innocent, they'll believe me!!!! :mad:

Prediction.
 

Foresight came upon me, and I saw that soon, I shall develop a technique to remove unwanted alter-egos from someone's brain.

Your days are numbered, Adam Smith. :p

Just try me, Nilpaurion Felagund.

On a totally unrelated note, some of the greatest Werewolf players will meet in Stockholm for the 1st Annual Real-Life Tol-in-Gaurhoth: The Isle of Werewolves game, moderated by His Wightyness. The participants will soon break down due to a lack of posts to analyse during the NIGHT, and this will result in a total bloodbath--gamewise, that is.

For the first time, a moderator will be able to say, MODERATOR WINS! He ends up taking the prize of $750 and a Barrowdowns T-shirt.

Nilp will continue posting links to huge non-mammals whenever they are mentioned in a thread.

One day, some of the Barrow Downs dreams will start to come true! :eek:

Posted by Glirdan:

This sounds exactly like a certain other Downer who than stabbed the innocent villagers in the back when they finally believed his cries of innocence.

Therefore, I predict that the villagers will most likely not be taking anyone's word without any evidence supporting it anytime soon. :p

Rather than buying a country for all the Downers, the Great and Powerful Barrow-Wight will merely relocate us all to Germany, in a remote castle. Once there, we will be free to dress in-character, and wander around doing our own Downer-bred version of LARP.

And then, the fun begins...

In a bid for power, I will attempt to oust the Great Wight from his throne (I am prone to attempting oustings and coups). No one will join my cause, however, and I will be locked away in the Darkest of Dungeons, my name never to be uttered again. You will all laugh at me once a year, as well, in honor of the Wight's victory over the Nameless One.

This series of events will all occur starting on May 7th, 2008-and continue until the Downfall of the Wight (see Book XIII of "Downer Mythology and Prophecy").

Link link link!
 

Hehe, just slugs, snakes and frogs. But I do mammals too, foxes/wolves and racoons only, though. :p

When the Barrow Wight becomes Lord master of the World and all the surounding islands, he'll order some scientists to resurect Tolkien so he can teach us all Qwenya. And tell us if those Balrogs have wings.

trying to resurect this topic
 

One day, the Forums will be so massive, that there is at least one Wight's birthday everyday of the year!

Semi-prediction, semi-request.

His Barrowship will somehow create a Deathday Icon with names at the bottom of the BD homepage to accompany (or replace) the Birthdays.

I predict there will be a WWXI

oh, and Bethberry will turn Rohan into the BD's first interactive theme park!

Gasp!
 

Gil-Galad predicted I'd return and start a major reform. Amazing, I plan to restore Quotes to its former glory and I doubt anybody can steal my self-proclaimed title of 'King of Quotes'.

Anyway I predict that Sleepy Ranger will stay this time and not mysteriously vanish for long periods of time any more. I also predict that within a week Sleepy Ranger will be back to posting where ever he feels like. I also predict that nobody will break Sleepy Ranger's 9 second record. :D

In regards to Sleepy's avatar; I predict that player 2 will win the game of pong.

MY 100th Post
 

Happy 100 post to me ! ! ! :)

I am so happy!

and what is this? with this post i suddenly get the abilety to see in to the future of the downs.

And here is the first sight allready: It is me, no longer am i to be that anoying newbie, with the stupid/easy questions. I am going to be that anoying pseudo-newbie with the stupid/easy questions.

And even futher into the future: my rep points is rising and rising! what a joy!
See i am siting on High Taniquetil, having sophist. . . ehm. Conversations with such admirebel people as:

The Perky Ent
Gil-Galad -The ever loveable (They will be there to at this point)
the guy who be short
The Only Real Estel
and
The Saucepan Man

(Just to mention some)

Flattery will get you no where...except a new car!

I will manage a French siggy that is... wait for it... perfectly accurate in every way. As a result, Mith, Wilwa et al will allow me into the clandestine French movement on the Downs that is plotting to usurp English as the primary language used here.

Yes, I do know you exist. So there. Let me in!

One day The Saucepan Man will pull a phantom/Eomer and play us all for fools as he wins a WW game as a wolf.

One day a genie or other magical person will find the "Be careful what you wish for" thread and start granting random wishes for real! :eek:

I don't think so buddy. :p You just revealed our plan. Now the whole thing is ruined. :rolleyes:

One day, someone other than me will come back after two year's absence, read the first post, the sentence 'I believe BW is going to retire next year and leave the place to Sharku', panic, post desperate messages, and made a general fool. :confused: Again, OTHER THAN ME. 0_0 Then I might feel better.

Don't you know? Francophilia is the new Quenya...

~ mal du siecle Ka


Yes, I am taking french classes, taught by a teacher who hops across the classroom sometimes... Very odd.


I predict that within the next three years, we will see a rise and demand for barrowdowns head ornaments or tracking devices to better spot a fellow member the next time you're out on the town.

That is all.

I predict that the Wolves ing both the WW and WWJ game will win. Again....

Do you realize the horrors of this, Estel?

Of course you don't. After all, you were instrumental in Eomer's victory...you, you, traitor, you.

I suppose in doing the latter he'll need someone as treacherous - I mean cobblerish :p as you were. And someone who will desperately try to convince the villagers of his lycanthropy, but unsuccessfully...like someone I know. ;)

You'll never let me foget that, will you Lhuna? :p

But I'm sure eventually Saucie will find a way to do the same thing...if he's not doing it now. ;) I've had him wrongly pegged as a 'helpful wolf' several times already-eventually I'll be right.

Oh, and I predict that someone will stumble onto Fea's drawing of 'Wolf Eomer' and offer to buy it.

Of course not, Estel dear. I fully intend to make you and your conscience suffer as much as I did - still do. :p

Oh, and I predict that soon there will be another Downs 'photo album' thanks to Enca and her bright ideas, as well as to those who jumped into her bandwagon. ;) Of course, some BDers will be portrayed more than once, and differently in each. Like a wolf-Eomer, Eomer in a kilt and with bagpipes, Eomer with a warg, and Eomer with Biff. Or maybe all of them at once. :D
