Has anyone played Scrabble using only Tolkien stuff (characters, places, etc). I have.

Of course you have to make it more simple than the usual Scrabble game, so if you're not satisfied with what letters you get on the first try, you are allowed to exchange the letters three times more. After that, you have to make a word out of the letters you got, for bad or worse. The only problem with this game is that there are too few letters such as 'R' and to many "E's and vocals in general...There should be a Tolkien Scrabble Game made...

EDIT: Duh. BW's link loaded and I went there and saw someone already thought of a Scrabble Game for Elvish. But still, this is somewhat different that what I was suggesting. This would really be difficult, especially for those of us who are not fluent in Elvish.
