Farrehn · 01-09-2003, 03:26 PM

Think up pastimes for orcs. What they do when they aren't being killed by every other race in Middle-earth. Such as . . .

1)playing soccer with another orc's head.

2)Burping contest!
and so on.....

Nimrothiel · 01-09-2003, 03:38 PM

This is gonna be fun...

3) Watch daytime soaps, and cry uncontrolably.

4)Stare at flowers and birdies.

Shoot, gotta go. More posts later, I promise. (Is that a good or bad thing?)

5) Dressing up like knights and being gallant.
6) Playing chess
7) Reading books and kill anyone being too noisey.

Carrûn · 01-10-2003, 08:46 AM

Urh, Kalimac, I think I've been poisened.

24. Musical chairs - everytime the music stops and an orc is on the chair he has to give up a limb.
25. Smear the quear, with arrows. Last one alive wins.
26. Hide under children's bed and then scare them at night. Extra points if they wet themselves.

Balin999 · 01-10-2003, 11:32 AM

27. playing football with the heads of thei enemies.

28. teaching their children not to swear.

29. reading the bible (thou shalt not kill!)

31. Hanging up stockings on their chimneys at christmas.

32. Go on vacation to the See of Nurnen (all inclusive, of course)

Hehehe [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Balin999 - playing football with the heads of their enemies ain't so far from the truth - didn't some Goblin Chieftain invent golf with a hammer and a dwarf's head?

And arlendil, do you think that when they surf the Barrow Downs, the lady orcs post: "ooooooohhh!! i just luv Shagrat!!! hes sooooooooooo hot!!!! hands off him!!!!! u cant have him coz hes mine!!!! hes just sooooooooooo cute!!!" [img]smilies/evil.gif[/img]

Anyway, on with the list:

34) Practicing their running with torches

35) (In Irish accent) drinking a touch of the black velvet with their mates, just for the craic (of doom)

36) Taking the Warg for a walk

37) Playing Red Eye, White Hand (like scissors, paper stone - Red Eye beats White Hand ... it's a short game).

[img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

ElentariGreenleaf · 01-11-2003, 04:46 AM

Wasn't the golf thing the other way round? Oh well.

38) Invent new games while killing the enemy
39) Who can kill the most competition
40) Burger Eating Competition
41) Who can come up with the most past times copetition
42) Designing gardens (gardening)
43) Playing snake on their mobiles! (just saw my mobile charger!)

Bullroarer Took invented golf by killing the leader of a band of orcs in the Northfarthing, then hitting his head into a hole.

Lindril Arvilya · 01-12-2003, 09:31 PM

At my summer camp, the teenage boys often like to make "swamp water": mix every juice in the juice machine together and chug it. I could outchug them all this past summer. Huzzah! Except for the time we created fake bile. It really did taste like it... urghh.... I would imagine orcs might like this contest.

Um, yes you're right, sorry. [img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img]

Since golf's not one exactly of my favourite sports, its one I could credit the orcs with inventing. Now cricket - that's more of an elvish game (they must have had the patience for it, being immortal 'n all). [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Horse-Maiden of the Shire · 01-12-2003, 10:28 PM

-taking long bubble baths (they get really dirty!)
-doing each others hair in new styles
-practicing their "evilness"

Well, GRANDFATHER orcs would tell war stories with lots of hand motions. After all the story telling was over--they sit around the camp fire and sing "sweet home mordor" and then the young orcs look up at the stars and dream that some day...they too, will be able to kill that many hobbits... [img]smilies/evil.gif[/img]

i*love*orli · 01-30-2003, 08:42 PM

They also would play 'taboo'.
