Be careful what you wish for...
Okay, this is a game my older brother came up with, and I thought it would be good for the Downs...
Make a wish. A Tolkien related wish, preferably. Someone else can grant it, but there must be an ironic, or comical consequence to the wish. They can be serious (if you want) but more likely just plain silly. Like so. Someone posts: I wish I could go to Middle Earth Someone else posts: Quote:
I wish I had a Silmarill **** And so on. I hope you get the idea. Please put your wish in bold letters so everyone can see it. Here is my wish... I wish there were more sheriffs in the Shire. [Edit: Make sure to quote the wish you are granting.]

Your wish is granted. Michel Delving becomes Nottingham, all proceeds go to the corrupt Prince Faramir, and the hobbitry stand in need of a benevolent hero in green tights.
I wish I could bear one of the Elven rings. Argh. Cross-post. Well I like this answer, so I'm leaving it...

Granted. It is so goody-two shoes that no one can stand the place.(When I meant Sauron losing his image, I meant his reputation. You can't really think highly of a warlord when he loses to a dog and surrenders to an unarmed women.)
I wish Gandalf would have told everyone at the Council of Elrond that the Eagles wouldn't fly Frodo to Mount Doom. |

Granted. It kills everyone and destroys Middle-Earth.
I wish we knew more about Rhovanion. |

excuse me, I meant zzzap. your wish is granted. the witch-king's crown is now a hot hat. unfortunately, the hat is so hot that whenever he tries to put it on, he drops it on his toes.
I wish that the barrow-downs in the book were replaced by our barrow-downs
