Just to clear this up, Garnae's name is spelt G-A-R-N-A-E.

Sorry, I said I would post on Thursday and its Monday, but I was STILL feeling sick.

I think I'll post before Cordelia finishes her save, tut tut so impatient of me.

Sixth Wizard signing out.

Sorry about mispellings. Upon occassion that happens.

My prayers are with you. I hope you feel better today!

Where is everyone? I haven't posted for ages because I decided to wait for Cordelia...

:confused:

Perhaps you could just go ahead an post something without waiting, The Sixth Wizard.

~*~ Pio

I am so so so sooooooooo sorry. I wasn't feeling well so I went to see the doctor and I had blood poisoning so I was in the hospital. But I'm back now and I am feeling very well.

Again I am SUPER sorry for my long saveness thing. I didn't mean for it to happen.

OH my gosh! Well we are very glad that you are back.


Let's get this going guys okay? Thanks

Glad to hear of your recovery ... .thank goodness (and Alexander Fleming) for antibiotics...

By the use of "dwell" for trees - is that a suggestion of somthing Entish or Huorn-...er Huorn-like?

Yes Cordelia, it is indeed gratifying and makes me feel a lot better to hear you're okay. When I read your post my stomach got all tied up in a knot. Glad you hear you're alright!

No. I just liked the word dwell. :D

I thought a cough was bad...

<later on...>

My post is now up (Le Poste Magnifique) and I think it's a bit rushed, well, very rushed, but at least I filled my save...

aww I hought we were going to have an encounter with an old man willow clone

Wow, I have just realised how much of a hypocrite I really am... (refer to post 101) :rolleyes:

Cordelia, please just ask if you want any of my post edited... to give you a shot at a 'romantic' post! lol

Guess who got to 50 posts!

I think I'll stop using the word 'post' so much in this post and possibly future posts, is that okay with you fellow posters? Will the posting of less of the word 'post' interrupt your posts? ;)

Sixth- I LOVED IT! I actually giggled when I read it. So great. I have posted. Just tell me if you want me to change anything.

Well that does sound kind of interesting. Does everyone want to encounter that kind of thing in the wood?

I have done some thinking , and looking at maps.... another possibility for the wood being a dread place would be if it were near enough the paths of the dead to be regarded to be haunted.

There are a couple of villages mentioned in Harrowdale between Dunharrow and Edoras, since "our village " is agricultural and near Edoras it might be / be near "Upbourn" where Harrowdale widens out rather than " Underharrow" in the narrower part of the valley. The Journeys of Frodo shows a sizeable wood across the Snowbourn from Underharrow. Situated under the shadow of the haunted mountain (Dwimorberg) and only a couple of miles from the door to the Paths of the Dead ..it might reasonably be the source of childhood terror for children in the area, and it would be palusibel for Uncle Sam to have property near the next village. And goodness know what we might find within.

If this is acceptable and doesn't contradict your plans Crystal, then I can use some of this for Hama in my next post...

In the mean time .. I will do something for Elfride .... who will have her work cut out as a Chaperone methinks :rolleyes:

It sounds great Mith! Thank you for all your hard work and researching.

Don't worry I happened to have maps of the area on me!!!! Relics of an aborted project tucked in the project of the notebook I also use for Werewolf. I really should get a life shouldn't I ? OK well I will have Hama arrive hot on the heals of the second dose of Love's young dream ... what on earth are they putting in the beer/ mead at the White Horse?

They are putting in some sort of happiness and love pill in there or something. lol


Really? That is so awesome! Naw you don't have to get a life. You have one! :D


TROPHY TIME!


Trophies go out to:

EVERYONE for posting and keeping with the group. :D


Random Trophy of Coolness goes to:

Mith! Because she is awesome and has all kinds of awesome stuff that she just pulls out of the air and makes the RPG great.

Actually it is just nice that it isn't going to waste. And it will give me a suitably grown up and leaderly thing for Hama to say which won't compromise the finer points of the char...splendid ...I was afraid I was going to get writers block with the responsibility. :D ....... so excellent. Hopefully tomorrow ....

and LOL seriously I am so not cool ...... but thank you

Mith don't doubt yourself. You are cool.

ALL HAIL MITH!!


Okay where are my peeps? Where ya at? *looks under rocks to find others*


LET'S GO LET'S GO LET'S GO LET'S GO! WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

*mutters quietly* she'll neve find me here. *sniggers* Oh cripes she found me!! I mean...yay!! You found me!!

Mith, congrats on the random award.

Crystal, thank you for the rep! :D

Everybody else, STAY HIDDEN!! I mean...come out, come out wherever you are my pretties!

Anyway, just letting everyone know that my final exams are coming up starting next week and into the final week of June so most of my time will be spent studying. I'll try and get on to post at least something...

A note to everybody, please remind me to remind myself to write a note to self about leaving my sig attached to my post in the RPG. I suffer from short term memory loss you see, so....

It'd be interesting. Definetly worth keeping in mind.

As for the Lovers thing going on, I think it adds more depth to the story so I say...KEEP IT UP!!

That is all...for now!! :p

You're welcome Glir! *hugs*

NO HIDING! DON'T LISTENIG TO GLIRDAN!! COME OUT AND RP WITH US!!


heheehe...


Yay for romance adding spice to a story! YAY!!



Good luck with your finals! Hey, who do you want to appoint to carry your character?

Crystal has apparently cured her short-term deppression in a BIG way... :eek:

Mith, don't worry, this is a Tolkein forum, I would believe 95% of people are very uncool, or I am just in denial!

Will post soonish.

Aren't the Huorns kind of mysterious and cool, what with the darkness and the menace and the tree-branches strangely falling on top of people and the moving around and them appearing even near the Shire and the disappearance of the Entwives and the ... *breaks off into senseless mutters*?

I thought they were kind of everywhere around that area, and we could just blame it on spirits and Dead guys...

Bye!

Thank you. Ummm....hmmmm...who to appoint....well, I don't think it should be Mith as she is already carrying Hama's character....umm...I think I'll leave it open to anyone who feels like it. But as I said, I should be able to come and post at least once a day.

And I thought that I was exuberent! :eek:

Well, there are those of us who are in between...

I shall be back later.

I had short term depression? Huh? lol. Yeah I got over it. I'm good now! :D


This is how I usually act. I'm a very hyper person.

AND WE ARE ALL COOL! Don't say that we aren't.

Let's try not to chat too much on the Discussion Thread.

~*~ Pio

Dear Crystal and the rest of you,

I am immensely sorry to have to say this, but I think that I am going to have to officially bow out of "Darker Days" for the next three weeks. My exams are simply taking up every second of my time, and I cannot continue to play.

I'm sorry to let you down, Crystal. If you could keep Hama running until I get back I would be most grateful.

Apologies once again to you all,

Hama

*ANNOUNCEMENT STUFF**********************
Well, guess I AM in denial, doesn't surprise me. <sigh>
Oh, nice avatar Pio!
Poor Hama! Won't it be different without him.
*****************************************
Is Mith going to open the door and embarrass Cordelia and Garnae? Won't post 'til then...

And Cordelia, I think you may have accidentally given me a DE-reputation, is that what the blue square thingy means?

And wasn't the thing I so rudely referred to as 'depression' (I always hate my posts the next day!) Crystal's aunt in hospital or something along those lines...?

Signing out.

There is no need to apologize. Studies are highly important. You concentrate on your studies. We shall just carry on your character. We will have to make him more quiet and keeping to himself, but we shall carry him all the same.

Good luck with your exams and do not worry about it.

Bye Hama! I hope you do well on your exams!

I did? I don't know what the blue square thingie means.

err, I mean instead of a green square there was a blue one and it seems to have deleted one of my Rep points..

Do not chat on the RPG Discussion Thread - take it to PM or go to the chat room, or AIM or wherever you'd like to discuss none-rpg oriented topics.

Rep points, depression, avatars, etc. can all be discussed elsewhere.

Use this thread to discuss the game and how to move it forward.

------------------------------------------------------------------------

One other comment - please remember that posts to games in the Shire need to be at least 2 paragraphs long. And EACH paragraph must have at least 2 sentences in it.

Some of the recent posts to the RPG have had 1 sentence paragraphs. Please remedy that in your future posts.



~*~ Pio, game moderator

Sorry...also for the sig....

I have PMd with Hama and intend to get a couple of more substantial posts up tonight. I save I shall use to get Love Birds Pair 2 inside (hopefully won't have to throw a bucket of water over them!). Hama will arrive soon after and will put forward some of the materials outlined earlier. So in about 6 hours we should have the entire party assembled and we can refocus on the main plot. No doubt there will be scope for "private moments" as the plot develops.......

Sounds like a good plan to me Mith.

I want to be on our way by Wednesday at the latest folks.

Err this is wednesday?

I mean next Wednesday. hehe.. Sorry.

We should be on our way by NEXT Wednesday! Sorry for not making that clear.

OKies I have opened the door and surprised if not embarrassed them. Let me know if I have to change anything. I think i have left it open enough for you. i was somewaht delayed thisevening by the unexpected appearance of an old friend on MSN so no time for Hama... will do tomorrow if poss. However it hink if there are a couple of posts between Cordelia and Garnae arriving and Hma it will work so i won't put up a save.

Right, will post now.

Thanks Pio!

Feel free to post Cordelia, I haven't got much time at the moment, I'll edit mine afterwards.

I have to tell you that I might be going on a trip on Tuesday or Wednsday and I'll be gone for a week. I will not be able to post anything during that period, so anyone can feel free to carry my character, if the RPG moves on. I'll let you know tomorrow if I am leaving or not, and when I am leaving.

Have fun on your trip. Don't worry about your character. We'll carry it.
