Middle Earth Fair - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Pennthangeil · 10-13-2003, 04:49 PM

Well, its State fair season here in America..and i thought *after a a couple of cokes and a sugar high* why not have a middle earthian fair?

Everyone bring your crafts, rides and exibits here so that the fair can begin!
The Dwarf Toss will begin in five minuets

Arwen1858 · 10-13-2003, 06:12 PM

ooh... can we have an archery contest?? And for the dwarf toss, we could have one person toss the dwarf, and the other catch it by the beard [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]
And we could round up a bunch of fangirls, and have a lot of fun with them! For one, we could set up a dunking booth, and put a fangirl in there, and quiz her about the books(which she's probably never read). Every time she gets a question wrong, we could dunk her!! And we could have a pie throwing contest, with fangirls as the targets!! And we could have a fanfic contest, and find a cruel and unusual way of punishing the ones who violate canon in a major way. Sounds like fun!!!

We read all of Tolkien's books thos who insult LOTR and have never read the books.

Sorry, but... What in M-E is "a middle earthian fair" ?
Maybe I'm just being stupid (that wouldn't surprise me) but could you guys explane the point of this "m-e fair -thinngie" to me?
That much I understood that the poor fangirls are going to suffer... [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Vladivos the Rider · 10-14-2003, 12:28 PM

I think it might be like an online party? But a fair centered around Middle Earth [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]
How about dunking O Bloom/V Mortenson and E Wood in the bucket/lake/ocean and seeing if the fangirls jump in after them? [img]smilies/evil.gif[/img]

Pennthangeil · 10-14-2003, 03:47 PM

Sure, i just put up the idea..run with it.

Finwe · 10-14-2003, 06:33 PM

Hmm... instead of Drench the Wench, we could have Drench the Viggo/Orlando/Karl, and have them dressed in white. [img]smilies/evil.gif[/img] You know what white does when it gets wet. [img]smilies/evil.gif[/img] [img]smilies/evil.gif[/img]

Oddwen · 10-14-2003, 06:54 PM

Eew, Finwe! Some of us don't don't don't want to visualize that. [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img]

Anyway. Besides archery, dwarf-tossing, fangirl-dunking, there should probably be some swordfighting, any and all Hobbits should run food stands (if they could keep them in business).

Would this be a fair in M-e, or of M-e?

ElenCala Isil · 10-16-2003, 09:26 PM

Hobbits running food stands? there wouldn't be much food left by the time that the fair opened... heh...

I like a fangirl dunk tank. We could have each actor one by one stand in front of the fangirl, and when she starts to drool, the actor gets to dunk her..mwahahahaha [img]smilies/evil.gif[/img]

I like quizzing them on the books too. For archery, we could have a bunch of sues stand against a tree with an apple on their heads whilst people shoot off arrows at the apples. Then take pictures of them flinching and vend them. yep. [img]smilies/evil.gif[/img] [img]smilies/evil.gif[/img]

purplefluffychainsaw · 10-20-2003, 06:26 AM

Yay!!! Let me shoot at the apples, I always seem to get the arrows below where I aim [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] And also, maybe, we should lock mary sues and fangirls and have a freak show... [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Phervasaion · 10-20-2003, 02:01 PM

I definatly like the idea of the apples...why dont we have a run away train that can take you through the mines of Moria and we could make it extremely scary and fast at the same time. You could have models of Balrogs and thousands of goblins as you go through.

Alatariel Telemnar · 10-20-2003, 08:01 PM

Trying to kill all the innocent fangirls by 'accidently' shooting the fangirls with your arrows and apples and whatnot?

I like it.. [img]smilies/evil.gif[/img]

No offense to any fangirls [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Nilpaurion Felagund · 10-21-2003, 02:14 AM

Well, lookslike you've thought of everything...except prizes! What will we have for prizes? A stuffed Frodo? A Gandalf action figure(complete with illuminating staff)?

Yours, if you want to [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img]
