Best Post of the Week

[HerenIstarion]

Now I've read it, I third the nomination

More, I would suggest to post it as an article on the main site.

(not meaning to single out davem or to suggest any kind of question about the humorous posts or the rep system.)

Unfortunately, I don't have enough time to post as much as I'd like on the Downs (also, my sense of humour is something of an aquired taste & is usually taken the wrong way ), & if you've struggled through my only fanfic (Orophin Dreams of the Waters of Awakening - in the fanfic section), I'm not sure you'd want me involved in an RPG!

Thank you HerenIstarion for providing that link and playing severe auntie. I had PMed a certain person suggesting a link would help but your gracious post was anything but severe.

Ah, davem, I have indeed read your fanfic. The main problem I can see if you and I were to join an RPG together is that we likely could never agree just what our intentions are. My bogan would forever be miswriting your spriggan. And vice versa.

Kransha's post is amazing. To be quite honest, it makes me realise that Meela was on to something about Denethor even though I couldn't understand her way of getting at it. Hmm. I hope that statement is taken the right way. It is meant as a compliment all round.

Having said that, I wish to acknowledge a rather unique contribution here. It is not one that most of us could make, but still I think it deserves great mention here: The Barrow Wight's Middle earth Magnets thread. This new game manages to combine several of the best features of our site: humour, playful respect for Tolkien, knowledge of Middle earth, imagination, and just darn good writing. A superb new contribution from the guy who just never runs out of great new ways to make this site interesting. Kudos!

I accept being scolded and whipped. Thank you HI for adding the necessary.

I hadn't noticed this thread highlighting Denethor until it was mentioned here, and having just read it (and drifted off somewhere through the first post, I must admit. I never was one for complexity.) I thoroughly back it and it's nominations.
It highlights much of what I have already studied, so at least I was more than familiar with the points raised.

Well it's not from this week, but this one has been one of the most entertaining I've read in a while.

[Feanor of the Peredhil]

Which post did you mean, Tulkas? You linked to the thread, but not the individual post.
