Welcome back, tWL! [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Please note that in my post, Gilly mentioned Rose had gone off on the search for the missing Fosco.

I can edit that out if need be - just let me know.

Child of the 7th Age · 04-12-2003, 07:13 PM

Orual,

Please check my p.m.

Cami

theWhiteLady · 04-12-2003, 08:08 PM

Thankies Pio, that works great [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

theWhiteLady · 04-13-2003, 02:14 PM

Nuru, Pio, or Cami: Would it be all right for Rose to discover Fosco's hankerchief?

(I apologize for the double post!)

Yes, it would be perfectly all right for Rose to find the hankerchief. Perhaps she could bring it to Angelica and Merimac?

theWhiteLady · 04-13-2003, 07:10 PM

I've filled my post, but if some of the details don't work, I can edit! Just let me know [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Orual · 04-13-2003, 08:25 PM

Filled in my save, finally! Sorry about the wait.

Nurumaiel · 04-14-2003, 02:31 PM

I've filled in my 'Save' space from April 11, 06:48 PM, and have put up a new one for Rose Goodchild and the Muddyfoots.

piosenniel · 04-15-2003, 03:45 AM

Mithadan - your post of April 11, 2003 08:36 PM: I put a post for Piosenniel on there. She can't step up to solve the problem - so she'd like Mithadan to do so . . .

Nurumaiel · 04-15-2003, 05:57 PM

I've filled in my post from yesterday concerning Rose Goodchild. theWhiteLady, you'll probably want to check it out.

piosenniel · 04-17-2003, 11:59 PM

Sharon - rearranged the posts so you can come to the Inn in the morning and find Pio.

Mithadan & Bird - left you some saves in case you want to conspire, leave the premises, or what ever . . .

theWhiteLady - left you a save in case you want to respond to Gilly.

***Mithadan*** · 04-18-2003, 09:52 AM

I've used one of the Saves. Thank you.

Child of the 7th Age · 04-18-2003, 11:41 AM

Nuru,

I have a question about the order of recent posts. Your post of 4-11 at 6:48 said this:

Quote:

At the same time as the Shirriff was hearing of the man with the bundle over his shoulder,

Was this referring to the hobbit whom Frodo discovered in my post of 4/15, 2:14 p.m. That hobbit was a poacher and he and his grandson saw the bandit with the bag over his shoulder. The bandit told them he was looking for bad boys. Or was there another reference to a bandit with a bag you are alluding to that I might have missed?

If you're referring to the bandit seen by the poacher, shouldn't your post come later, immediately after mine? (Just the first part of your post, not he later part which is on a different topic.)

Please clarify. I may have this wrong in my head as I am trying to play catch-up now after several busy days. BTW, I'll be glad to paste it after mine, if that's what you want. Another possible alterntive---edit the reference to the bag and the bandit.

In my Shirriff post, there is mention of a Man carrying a bundle.

Child of the 7th Age · 04-18-2003, 11:47 AM

Thank you, Mith .

Nuru-- Ignore my earlier question!!

Nurumaiel · 04-18-2003, 02:48 PM

Please see your PMs.

Child of the 7th Age · 04-19-2003, 10:38 AM

Pio,

Please check my last post. I fear Cami is having bad dreams again!

sharon

Nurumaiel · 04-19-2003, 12:41 PM

My post from April 14, 04:29 PM is now completely filled in with a post from theWhiteLady. As you can see Miss Rose Goodchild has made quite an impression on little Madoc Muddyfoot. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

piosenniel · 04-19-2003, 02:48 PM

Ooh! Madoc has it baaad!

I rearranged a post each for Mithadan and Gilly to make the storyline flow more smoothly.

piosenniel · 04-19-2003, 04:18 PM

theWhiteLady

Please see your PM's.

Child of the 7th Age · 04-20-2003, 10:21 AM

Pio, Mith,

Please check your pms.

piosenniel · 04-20-2003, 10:36 AM

Did not receive PM, Sharon.

Child of the 7th Age · 04-20-2003, 11:01 AM

Pio,

This time, a pm should come through....

I got tied up on two software errors when I tried to send something to Mithadan, which I then reported.

Mithadan, btw, please see your e-mail, not your pms! I tried twice and the pms don't work.

sharon

piosenniel · 04-21-2003, 01:36 AM

Sharon - Gilly/Rose post is filled in, and you are still in the room . . .

doug*platypus · 04-21-2003, 06:49 AM

Hi, everyone.

Sorry for the temporary absence of a Bill Ferny character. I have been, and still am, unavailable due to constant heavy pressure on my time from matters outside the Downs. I believe that a replacement has been found for my services.

Best of luck with everything, and I look forward to reading the results at some far point in time, which I cannot see at this stage...

When writing for Bill, remember, villains are people too. Except for Sauron. He's just f*ed.

Nurumaiel · 04-21-2003, 10:58 AM

doug*platypus,

Good to hear from you again. I hope you find the way I'm playing Bill Ferny acceptable.

Yes, villains can get annoyed at bratty little kids like Fosco who insist on kicking them. Poor Bill and Stoatie.....

Child of the 7th Age · 04-21-2003, 12:35 PM

Pio,

Cami has responded and gone off. It is directly at the end of your last post.

***Mithadan*** · 04-21-2003, 02:18 PM

I've used Pio's save from April 19, 2003 at 6:21pm.

piosenniel · 04-21-2003, 02:19 PM

Rose and Gilly are off on their trusty steeds!

Note date change:

Tomorrow real time I'll move us ahead a day to 28 Nárië. I'll put a few saves on in case anyone needs one, after I get home from work tonight.

piosenniel · 04-22-2003, 02:09 PM

My two 'saves' from yesterday are filled in. Mithadan/Bird - Rose and Gilly should probably get to you tomorrow, game time - 29 Nárië. Scare the little scamps if you wish!

Sharon - Pio wants Cami to come see her - she has just read The Note. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Child of the 7th Age · 04-23-2003, 11:40 AM

I inserted my post about receiving the note just above yours, in your space. It seemed to make more sense that way.

Later tonight, I'll come to Pio and start the conversation. Then you can take it on.

sharon

Child of the 7th Age · 04-23-2003, 01:58 PM

Pio,

OK, I've managed to do the whole thing this afternoon. Cami has already run over in her head what she intends to say to Pio. So you're welcome to take those ideas and use my character in some sort of conversation.

Cami

piosenniel · 04-24-2003, 03:45 AM

Have filled in my SAVE. Cami, unfortunately the Elf has nearly snapped your head off - you were the unfortunate recipient of her misplaced anger, frustration, and worry.

Mithadan, you are about to be the victim of another glob of brook sludge . . . [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Child of the 7th Age · 04-24-2003, 05:46 AM

Ah, I see.

Cami will approriately respond.

I have stripped off my subsequent post and will revise as needed. Hope to repost later today.

Cami

[ April 24, 2003: Message edited by: Child of the 7th Age ]

Child of the 7th Age · 04-24-2003, 10:22 AM

Cami's post is revised and up.

piosenniel · 04-24-2003, 10:25 AM

Ack! Cami is not going to forgive the horrendously pregnant Pio for snapping at her in a fit of hormonal rage?! [img]smilies/frown.gif[/img]

Now what?

Child of the 7th Age · 04-24-2003, 10:28 AM

Stay tuned for the next installment of "As Middle-earth Turns"......

Cami

piosenniel · 04-24-2003, 10:39 AM

If this is a M-e soap - shouldn't you and I at least be having a little more fun! Where are those beefy actors that wander through and lead us astray? [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Birdland · 04-24-2003, 12:33 PM

Way to go, Cami. Just kick those gods in the shins with your furry, they're-not-that-big feet, and flip them the Bird...No! Not that Bird!

Child of the 7th Age · 04-24-2003, 04:46 PM

Actually, I wish Lorien would make an appearance about now. Cami would have a thing or two to tell him!

sharon

p.s. Just kidding Mith....
