Hahaha! I love how certain themes occurred almost through the entire round.

Thanks for modding Form (even if it did take eight months and you mixed up the order of Hook's & my sentences ). It was a good idea to use a Tolkien quote as the original text, actually I had thought of doing it too if I ever modded a round.

Things I loved especially:
-wilwa's boat with the speech bubble, it was a great way to carry across the meaning of the sentence
-LadyBrooke's sentence
-Oddwen's crazy grinning Noldor
-Greenie's anarchist dwarves (and one of them looks a little like me!)
-Mnemo's idea, it was quite original. Actually it'd be interesting to do an entire round with photos...
-TGEW's sentence
-Eönwë's viking & the swan's speech bubble
-Nog's "Rune gets carried away while cutting the hedge"
-Hook's squirrel. Cuteness!
-Legate's picture idea! It's hilarious. So did you actually play a whole game with those characters or just stage a fight?
-Rune's sentence
-Brinn's picture. It's simply funny.
-Might's sentence
-Ka's pic. I love it!
-spawn's picture. Especially the Helsinki Cathedral!
-Lauri's pic. The colours are great and penguins cute.
-Rune's Sky Viking
-Eönwë's "Dread Norseman"
-Nog's pic, absolutely hilarious
-Isabell's bathing penguins
-Lommy's picture. Faramir has a dirty expression!
-Might's pic

I'd like to sign up for the next round too... And I'd like to draw rather early because if the volcanic ash cloud dissolves by June, I might be more or less unavailable for drawing.

I'd offer to mod too but as I said, June-July will be a bit bad for me...

I'll take the mantle again, if no one else wants it.

Anyone else.

I have some ideas for this one that may or may not happen.

Me too, please. (And I'd prefer to draw early, too, because I'll be travelling from mid-June to mid-July too.)

And since I didn't say anything more yet - this was indeed such a hilarious round! I loved all of it, that was full of highlights... aww. My only complaint is that people write too long sentences but even it didn't ruin this (at all).

I'll play next round! The only thing is I can't be online the last week in June and the first week in July except on the weekends () so if that could be avoided, that would be great. I can still draw then, but I couldn't send it in for a while.

Hey people, didn't comment yet, but it was a hilarious round indeed. Great job, everybody, really!!!

And Hookbill, if you are organising a next one, sign me up for sure...
