The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum - View Single Post - How they brought the good games from Rohan to Gondor

Hi Orual,

Here is a very brief rundown of the general procedure.

Gamers join Gondor by personal invitation from those already on the list, usually sent by the Gondor Moderator on behalf of all Gondorians. There is no formal application process or procedure.

The minimum criterion is managing a game successfully in Rohan, but membership is not automatic. Rather, in the past, gamers have been invited to Gondor based upon the overall quality of their gaming and contribution to the Barrow Downs RPG fora, in the past as well as currently. The standard to be aimed for is that set by the games themselves in Gondor.

Candidates are suggested by other Gondorians, by myself, or by The Shire Mods, Pio and Child. Agreement is by consensus. We try very hard not to browbeat our other Gondorians. If we do, Mithadan is always available to read us some riot act or other. Loyers, to use the REB term, are quite wont to do that. Of course, this is a point to which we have never yet resorted.

If you have specific questions about your game or your gaming, please send them to me via PM. I will have very little online access this weekend but will respond as soon as I am able.

Cheers,
Bêthberry
