The one and only time I played LOTR Risk, I played it with my entire family (mom, dad, and brother)...it was an interesting experience, to say the least.
All I have to say is, because of me...the Free Peoples lost. I don't really know why I bought that game, seeing as the few times I've played Risk I've only become incredibly enraged (because I am not such a good strategist and I have horrible luck with dice), and practically gotten into a fist fight with my brother (kind of like miniature golf...such a violent sport...). It did eventually come in handy, though, when I used the One Ring that came with it at the 'Ring Ceremony' at my high school in place of my class ring (but of course I went and ordered one of those this year because I decided I wanted one for the old school because they are changing locations and the name). Oh, and it's been five years of Tolkien for me, now. (But don't go back and look at my one and only post on here to find out when I first read the books, because you will see the blatherings of a thirteen year old girl...and it's not pretty) ![]() |

Yes, and to think I've always wanted to for once actually play DnD... Perhaps it's good that I have not been able to yet. I get violent when I feel that luck is the only thing against me (it's rarely really about skill, right? right...

Yes, I used that ring and put it around a chain and... oh my god, I am such a nerd...

I wore "the One Ring" around my neck for probably over a year, of and on. I kept using Rings that came on these bookmarks...but I kept losing them! What a great Ringbearer I make... Yes, let's just conveniently lose it somewhere. After all, that's how it disappeared for thousands of years anyway, being lost in a river... Behind my bed it might be even more difficult to find!
![]() I also was an avid collector of the LotR "CCG" (which translates: "Collectible Card Game"). I had a humongous binder full of them, and other boxes as well...and I can't say I played the game more than three or four times! Now they sit and collect dust, and I look at them every once in a while, and think about how they just have to be worth something someday, and that ebay will still be around then... ![]() And I can't say there's anything wrong with being a nerd. A merchandising nerd, though...well, I don't suggest it. ![]() |

Oh, you are right, Durelin . If I wasnt a nerd, I would never have found LOTR...
![]() But anyway, I never got into the CCG, be it the lack of money or the fascination with my GameCube... ![]()
