Q: What is 10,000 lawyers at the bottom of the Anduin? A: A good start.

Send all the Gondorian lawyers out to negotiate a peace treaty.

(Relax! My sister is a lawyer - who do you think tells me all the lawyer jokes?)

Funny thread.

Ha ha! Taking the French approach, I see.

What would I do? Hmm...

I know! I'd start a rumor that Turin came back to life, then I'd paint a sword black and charge at them. They'd probably run away.

If that didn't work, well, I suppose I'd ask everyone I knew if they were friends with the Ents, or at least knew where I could find a grove of orc-hating Huorns.

laugh and point and wonder how they got so small they could fit on my front door! Then I'd cover the door with a thick coat of barn red paint to make it match the roof! Bye bye 200,000 tiny orcs!

Cheers!

P.S. Then I'd put my tiny houseplant Huorns out and let them feast on whatever tiny orcs fell off the door...

Show them they could be redeemed.

200 000 Orcs......

I don't think I'd be able to do much as the sent of my flesh would probably send them wild, so they'd jump on me and tear me to pieces!

Ok, if they didn't jump at me straight away I'd pull out The One Ring which permanently lives around my neck on its very own silver chain, and put it on. I would then be so powerful I could bend their will to leaving my front door! Not that I would then get much peace as I imagine I would now be incredibly evil and try and take over the world. This would be so much hard work I would most likely die of exhaustion!

Ok, who am I kidding? I'd slam the door shut, run to the back of the house like I was being pursued by, well, 200 000 Orcs; throw open the back door and never come back to this part of Middle-Earth again! Of course I would probably die in The Wild....

Hmmmmmmmmm. *scratches head * I seem to always end up dying....

Start a business manufacturing orcish products. They'd be happy little consumers in no time, and I would become bloated and wealthy. It's the Gondorian dream.

Sigh resignedly and dig deep into my pockets as I paid for 200,000 cotton tea-towels, before signing 200,000 sponsored walk pledge sheets and saying 200,000 times "No, I don't want anything from the Avon book, thank you" before closing the door and collapsing into an exhausted heap.

If I found...

1) Well, first I'd hop quickly to the BarrowDowns to see what advice I could get in two-point-five seconds, and then I'd turn on my iTunes visual effects to hypnotize them, and while that was happening I'd sneak out the back door.

2) I would bribe them with raw cookie dough. Then hope they get salmonella really quickly.

3) Wake up.

4) Grab my BB gun and...fire off two shots before I die.

5) Get them involved in the Balrog Wing debate. After all, wouldn't some of them have seen/not seen wings?

6) Blast some Korn or Disturbed at them...woo, look at 'em run!

7) Start some "drums in the deep" of my own.

8) Tell them the Barrow-Wight thinks that they're off topic. ( )

9) Tell them that the general concensus is that them being on MY doorstep is non-canonical.

10) Wonder if this will interfere with my visits to the BD's...

200000 orcs at the door,

"Oh no, not again! What is it this time?"

OR

I'd offer them accommodation for the night, but no breakfast, they deserve no less for coming so late!

Close the door. Upon some reflection - stop drinking. Right now. Upon some more reflection - go splash some cold water over my head. Upon even more reflection - check the door again. If orks were still there, well, try to dispose myself to salutary mood real quick and prepare to die, meanwhile posing a question of 'yes, may I help you' (who knows, maybe it's not me they are after, after all?) in the most unobtrusive tone I could possibly manage given the circumstances.

Or maybe die of fright on the spot

Challenge the leader and two of his best Orcs to a game of Monopoly (because it takes ages to finish) and hope to casually win them over with my lovely character. If that got a bit heated then I would amuse them with magic tricks.

The Orcs would grow to like me and leave my home without hurting anyone.

Thumbs up Only 200,000?

If I found 200,000 orcs on my front door, I would...

Smirk as they bowed in humble reverence before my dark, dimented glory.
Then I'd politely say thank you as one of them got me a Pina Colada, while the rest give me neck massages, put soothing music on the CD player, and started up the jaccuzzi.

I would challenge them to a game of that classic from the 70's, Escape From Colditz. It took so long to gather the little cards which gave your plastic men guns or fake passports that you began to wonder if they were ever going to get out, and then when they did, they'd land on a square where they'd get caught. The Orcs would die of boredom.

Or else I'd challenge them to a game of darts. With my useless throwing I'd knock out one hundred and eighty Orcs a time with one arrow.

Formally introduce myself and my animals, then proceed to teach them the Time Warp...

Afterwards, I think we would have a lovely victorian picnic in a cemetery, or I would conduct an art lesson...

I really don't know what we would do... Or I would do for that matter with 200,000 orcs at my door. Maybe I could invite Melkor or something over. Not Sauron though, I have a suspicion that he would steal them... While Melkor would give me tips on how to care for them. Then, we could sit, drink tea and talk philosophy and music. Besides, Melkor is cooler anyway...

Tell them, in as kindly a voice as I can wield, that they do not exist.

Hmm.

What if 200,00 orcs, after reading a fantasy novel in which they are
negatively stereotyped as evil guys who get killed by the good guys,
become born again proselytizing American Christian fundamentalists
(say, hare krishnas or Mormons). They go back in time to 1950s Oxford
and try to convert to their cause an Oxford don scholar/writer. This
professor becomes so irritated with their constant knocking on his
door and driving past in cars with bad exhausts he decides to put them
in the fantasy novel he is writing as bad guys who get killed by the
good guys, a book which is eventually read by 200,000 orcs who,
after reading this fantasy novel.......

I'd do what I do with most everyone who comes to my door.

Sign for the package and/or refuse to by the vacuum and/or tell them I'm not interested in converting and/or don't need a home security system and/or not by candy and/or give pop cans and if they don't go away, release my hound.

Wander about, looking for female Orcs to determine their existance. At the same time, I would wonder how and army of 200,000 managed to fit on so small a front lawn.

Shield

Hm... I've posted two or three times on the topic. But in all likelyhood, I would stick to my original plan and lie besieged. Bring orcs, I don't think they'd be organised enough to have provisions to wait out a siege. And any assault would obviously fail: I would have plenty of boiling water at the ready!
Yes... that just might work.

I'm afraid to say that the army has yet to invade my town, and I therefore have not had the chance to hunt for female orcs. Perhaps it's better for my sanity this way.

Now that I think about it, the 200,000 would probably swarm around the street rather than just in my front lawn... My mistake.

All right, beseiged it is. You bring the water and I'll bring the food and a deck of cards. You do play, don't you? Anyone else care to join? All head to Guy who be short's place, it's the one with the small front lawn. Don't forget to bring something to share.

Wonderful idea, Holbytlass If the stores do run out, we can turn to cannibalism.

More details on the siege:
Board up the lower windows with planks from the garage so they cant be broken through.

Pour boiling water, the cheap substitute for oil, onto the orcs from the upper windows.

Throw antique lamps and other such parental belongings at the orcs. Perhaps set them on fire first.

Play loud rock music Especially Blind Guardian.


Hm... I think I need more detail. What did the orcs bring? If they have siege weaponry I'm in trouble. I'm presuming they just have their little scimitars and swords?

Oh dear...

It appears that I have been found out...

In reality, all references to my bravery, cleverness, bomb shelter, and even the Ork costume, are figments of my (rather active) imagination.

Although I imagine that a generic ork costume, due to the rather scruffy nature of the generic ork, would be quite easy to manufacture. Lots of cloth, rusty armour, assortment of dirty cultlery, and a lot of dark facepaint (well-smeared) ought to do the trick.

I'm far from an expert on the subject, but I'm willing to help, if I can... Although my main experience with lawn-battles tends to deal with lawnmowers....

~Definitely male,

Formendacil~

If I found 200,000 Orcs on my front door, I would ask them if they take sugar in their tea.

OR

If I found 200,000 Orcs on my front door, I would tell them to get off it.

1420!

If I found 200,000 orcs on my front door, I would offer them tea and spike it with Vodka...or whatever you spike tea with. I'd wait for them to get drunk enough that they forgot about me and sneak off, waiting for their drunkenness, in conjunction with their belligerent nature, to cause them to kill themselves off.

Thumbs up If I found 200,000 Orcs on my front door

I would tell them to use the back door.

OR

I would ask which one was called Bernard and hope they started an argument over which one it was and kill each other.

Tell them that they must make a reservation for all parties over 10 members in size.

OR

Take a picture of myself with 200,000 orcs and post it on Crazy Captions.

OR

Ask if they were the famous breakdancing orcs.

OR

Think of a petition that I needed to have 200,000 signatures for. Hmmm, how about renaming the town in my name! Gurthangton!

1)Tell them " No I don't want any Orc girl cookie guides now go!"

2)Ask them if the met Boromir the Disco King

3)Pull a Bilbo and yell " The Eagles are coming! The Eagles are coming" and in the confusion and fear, slip out and get an army of Downer's to come and help me where we will all fight valiantly. The only problem will be Gil and his big ego. He'll try and be a hero and take on 10 orcs at a time. Luckily, he will have the phantom by his side and both their giant ego's will prevail.

If they're as skilled in combat as most enemy soldiers in the movies are, I'd probably defeat them easily.

Well, Wayne, I'm glad you're honest.

In that situation, naturally, I would be terrified. Then I would try to find out if they were merely humans in costume. If they were the real deal, as it were, I would lead a campaign to get rid of all the cheerleaders in my school, the drill team, and the pansy school mascot (who might be the son of the Indian from the Village People, 'cause he sure bears resemblance). I'm sorry. I don't hate people with school spirit; just the ones at MY school. But mostly the mascot. He betrayed me once. Love you guys!

Just so you all know, I'd rally up the orcs and lead them into the gymnasium during Friday's pep rally. Hope it's football season! Cheers!

I would have to try beating them to death with my wooden sword and then trying to push my grandparents out the back door and over the fence.... but they are real old so I would have to knock the fence down. We wouldn't get very far.
