As for the specific-unspecific debate, just for note I would side with Brinn. I don't have anything against occasional "off-topic" game, but we are BDers here and Tolkien should probably be the "primary source" just for the sake of being able to appeal to wide audience. From my point of view, McCaber's game was a very "daring" one in these terms, although it turned out well (very well, actually). Although I think that was more like luck with that so many people knew the topic - yet still there were those for whom it wasn't that special or who weren't familiar with the subject itself.
Anyway, for now: All right, my game is ready, so I can as well post up now. I was busy today so I could not put up the admin thread earlier, but I just came home so I will do so in the following hour.
