Posts: 2</TD><TD></TD></TR></TABLE> location I'm from England, Buckingham*shire* if ya want to get technical, lol. I thought There would be more brits here, this board really is diverse. I have a confession, I only started reading the Lord of The Rings in January this year. I read the Hobbit a long time ago, but never realised that LoTR was kind of like a sequel (if I'd have known it had more Bilbo in it I would have picked it up in a flash) I'd always known about it, but I think I assumed it was a bit too geeky or something (I know, I'm hanging my head in shame!) until my dad bought me the set for Christmas. Now I can't believe I didn't read it sooner, and I can't imagine what it was like not to have read it! It touched me that much. I read most of it on Holiday in The Alps in March, sitting by this snowy, fastflowing river with no-one around(yes, I'm also a hopeless sap, hehe) so the whole book is linked up with this wilderness picture in my mind and I'm now a Tolkien freak. <img src=smile.gif ALT=""> </p> |

Some here call it Tolkienist instead of Freak or Nerd - but it doesn't really matter as long as you enjoy the books <img src=smile.gif ALT=""> - If you wanna get more geeky - read the Silmarillion and Unfinished Tales - more about Elves - and no hobbits - Still the same world, just earlier!

Where are you from? Hello, I am from Zoetermeer, The Netherlands, 23 yrs. I think I was here before, but I can't remember... Anyway, as most students, I had to read something for my English literature list, and my teacher recommended Lotr. I borrowed the book from the library (Fellowship), but upon finishing it, the second part (Towers) was already lended out. So I read the Hobbit in between. Everything became clear after that. Finishing the complete Lotr, I just HAD to read the Sil. And now I am a genuine Tolkien-freak like the rest of you (no offense, but compliments) My knowledge for the most part comes from playing MERP, the game. I think there is no better way (apart from reading the books) for getting the 'feel' of Middle Earth. Currently, I am combining MERP with Rolemaster and AD&D, making it a complete game in a Middle Earth setting. Where MERP the first edition was much to simplistic, and Rolemaster was much too difficult, I created a good mix between the both. I am now facing the hideous task of translating over 3000 spells in Quenya. All in good time, I will place all my files on the internet, for free and downloadable for all. It will be the best RPG* you've as of yet laid your eyes on! Anyone who is interested please, feel free to correspond * By RPG I mean RPG the real stuff, not some lame, fantasy-robbing computergame Nai hiruvalyë Valimar! Nai elyë hiruva!</p> |

I'm from Texas, floating around somewhere in the Dallas/Fort Worth Metromess. I love it, it's home, but it's hot. I'm jealous of you Scotlanders, I want to go there so bad! That and Ireland, since I'm of a stron Irish dicent. (Hence my inability to tan! <img src=frown.gif ALT=""> ) Alas, I digress... I got into LOTR when I was about 8. My dad read them all to me (including the Hobbit. In fact, one of the three times I've ever seen my dad cry was when Fili and Kili died! No joke...) so they've always been special. Like some others here, I see, I've just recently experianced a Middle-earth rennasciance. Ah... ~ Elerrina ('Crowned with stars'; a name of Taniquetil; Only thing that wasn't taken) 'Many are the strange chances of the world,'said Mithrandir,'and help oft shall come from the hands of the weak when the Wise falter."</p> |
