Speaking of which, ridiculous conspiracy theorists should go to Mordor, as should their ridiculous conspiracy theories.

Of course I'm happy! I've received provisional approval to start up the "Assigned To Mordor" rpg, at some not too distant, not too soon, time in the (relatively near) future. There, enough chronological qualifications for you? It's going to have to wait until a few other things are taken care of, like a werewolf game, and a rather slowly developing Numenor game, ... not to mention a trip to England in September, so don't hold your breath. We're gonna do this right!

I think Little Man Poet is just happy to see Mordor reaching it's fullest capabilities... And with everything going into it, I would not be surprised if it resembled a modern-day garbage dump of both physical and mental attributes.

Now I feel like an ultra-consumer, agghh...

To Mordor those who spill such draughts, wantonly!

How naive of me. All along I thought the whole RPG thing was a joke.

EDIT: Please don't volunteer yourselves to play. I'm going to PM various individuals who I think will help me develop a really enjoyable first run, and not until I'm ready to.
Of course, our beloved Saucepan Man should not be left out; after all, he himself is now firmly ensconced in Mordor, as he said.

Now, now, what to send to Mordor...

Those nagging thoughts that seem too irrelevant at the moment, but afterwards you will realize you should have listened to. *mournful sigh*

Bullies should absolutely be sent to Mordor, along with lima beans and most bugs.

And rabbits!!! They are the most evil breed of mammal known to humanity, hobbitry and elfdom...devouring entire flower gardens overnight...killing shrubs with their incessant gnawing. The evil evil bunnies should all be sent to Mordor!

**stops to ponder**

Actually, considering the miniscule amount of healthy plant growth in Mordor, it seems that the Evil Bunnies have already overrun the place.

But without complex mathematics, we wouldn't have fast planes or cars! And engineering, and life insurance! And architecture! And...

Teachers who don't make maths interesting and explain it properly should go to Mordor instead.

Nope, lmp is purdy gungho about it. He asked me about putting it in Rohan, but I suggested that, since most of the people who have posted here don't have Rohan gaming rights, perhaps he should approach the Shire mods. We'll have to bide our time and see what comes up.

I ban sports physicals to Mordor - $40 dollars (or more!) for 10 minutes of a doctor's time to say I'm healthy. And while it only takes 10 minutes of a doctor's time, it takes an hour and a half of my time.

And people who give away spoilers to books and movies without warning you. It's happened to me on both the 5th and 6th HP books. I haven't even read the 6th and I already know who the Half-blood Prince is. Grr...

It's really not that big of a deal -- there are worse spoilers that could be leaked...

I therefore condemn to Mordor unnecessary aspects of plot! (the esteemed Mr. Bombadil excluded, of course )

Oh, and Balrog Wingers should go straight to Mordor for perverting Truth with their lies, of course...
