Just to clear this up, Garnae's name is spelt G-A-R-N-A-E.
Sorry, I said I would post on Thursday and its Monday, but I was STILL feeling sick. I think I'll post before Cordelia finishes her save, tut tut so impatient of me. Sixth Wizard signing out. |

I am so so so sooooooooo sorry. I wasn't feeling well so I went to see the doctor and I had blood poisoning so I was in the hospital. But I'm back now and I am feeling very well.
Again I am SUPER sorry for my long saveness thing. I didn't mean for it to happen. |

Glad to hear of your recovery ... .thank goodness (and Alexander Fleming) for antibiotics...
By the use of "dwell" for trees - is that a suggestion of somthing Entish or Huorn-...er Huorn-like?

Yes Cordelia, it is indeed gratifying and makes me feel a lot better to hear you're okay. When I read your post my stomach got all tied up in a knot. Glad you hear you're alright!

Wow, I have just realised how much of a hypocrite I really am... (refer to post 101)
Cordelia, please just ask if you want any of my post edited... to give you a shot at a 'romantic' post! lol Guess who got to 50 posts! I think I'll stop using the word 'post' so much in this post and possibly future posts, is that okay with you fellow posters? Will the posting of less of the word 'post' interrupt your posts?

I have done some thinking , and looking at maps.... another possibility for the wood being a dread place would be if it were near enough the paths of the dead to be regarded to be haunted.
There are a couple of villages mentioned in Harrowdale between Dunharrow and Edoras, since "our village " is agricultural and near Edoras it might be / be near "Upbourn" where Harrowdale widens out rather than " Underharrow" in the narrower part of the valley. The Journeys of Frodo shows a sizeable wood across the Snowbourn from Underharrow. Situated under the shadow of the haunted mountain (Dwimorberg) and only a couple of miles from the door to the Paths of the Dead ..it might reasonably be the source of childhood terror for children in the area, and it would be palusibel for Uncle Sam to have property near the next village. And goodness know what we might find within. If this is acceptable and doesn't contradict your plans Crystal, then I can use some of this for Hama in my next post... In the mean time .. I will do something for Elfride .... who will have her work cut out as a Chaperone methinks

Don't worry I happened to have maps of the area on me!!!! Relics of an aborted project tucked in the project of the notebook I also use for Werewolf. I really should get a life shouldn't I ? OK well I will have Hama arrive hot on the heals of the second dose of Love's young dream ... what on earth are they putting in the beer/ mead at the White Horse?

They are putting in some sort of happiness and love pill in there or something. lol
Really? That is so awesome! Naw you don't have to get a life. You have one! TROPHY TIME! Trophies go out to: EVERYONE for posting and keeping with the group. Random Trophy of Coolness goes to: Mith! Because she is awesome and has all kinds of awesome stuff that she just pulls out of the air and makes the RPG great.

Actually it is just nice that it isn't going to waste. And it will give me a suitably grown up and leaderly thing for Hama to say which won't compromise the finer points of the char...splendid ...I was afraid I was going to get writers block with the responsibility. ....... so excellent. Hopefully tomorrow ....
and LOL seriously I am so not cool ...... but thank you

Mith, don't worry, this is a Tolkein forum, I would believe 95% of people are very uncool, or I am just in denial! Will post soonish. Aren't the Huorns kind of mysterious and cool, what with the darkness and the menace and the tree-branches strangely falling on top of people and the moving around and them appearing even near the Shire and the disappearance of the Entwives and the ... *breaks off into senseless mutters*? I thought they were kind of everywhere around that area, and we could just blame it on spirits and Dead guys... Bye! Last edited by The Sixth Wizard; 06-13-2006 at 12:06 AM. |

I had short term depression? Huh? lol. Yeah I got over it. I'm good now!
This is how I usually act. I'm a very hyper person. AND WE ARE ALL COOL! Don't say that we aren't.

Dear Crystal and the rest of you,
I am immensely sorry to have to say this, but I think that I am going to have to officially bow out of "Darker Days" for the next three weeks. My exams are simply taking up every second of my time, and I cannot continue to play. I'm sorry to let you down, Crystal. If you could keep Hama running until I get back I would be most grateful. Apologies once again to you all, Hama |

*ANNOUNCEMENT STUFF**********************
Well, guess I AM in denial, doesn't surprise me. <sigh> Oh, nice avatar Pio! Poor Hama! Won't it be different without him. ***************************************** Is Mith going to open the door and embarrass Cordelia and Garnae? Won't post 'til then... And Cordelia, I think you may have accidentally given me a DE-reputation, is that what the blue square thingy means? And wasn't the thing I so rudely referred to as 'depression' (I always hate my posts the next day!) Crystal's aunt in hospital or something along those lines...? Signing out.

There is no need to apologize. Studies are highly important. You concentrate on your studies. We shall just carry on your character. We will have to make him more quiet and keeping to himself, but we shall carry him all the same. Good luck with your exams and do not worry about it.

Do not chat on the RPG Discussion Thread - take it to PM or go to the chat room, or AIM or wherever you'd like to discuss none-rpg oriented topics.
Rep points, depression, avatars, etc. can all be discussed elsewhere. Use this thread to discuss the game and how to move it forward. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ One other comment - please remember that posts to games in the Shire need to be at least 2 paragraphs long. And EACH paragraph must have at least 2 sentences in it. Some of the recent posts to the RPG have had 1 sentence paragraphs. Please remedy that in your future posts. ~*~ Pio, game moderator

Sorry...also for the sig....
I have PMd with Hama and intend to get a couple of more substantial posts up tonight. I save I shall use to get Love Birds Pair 2 inside (hopefully won't have to throw a bucket of water over them!). Hama will arrive soon after and will put forward some of the materials outlined earlier. So in about 6 hours we should have the entire party assembled and we can refocus on the main plot. No doubt there will be scope for "private moments" as the plot develops.......

I have to tell you that I might be going on a trip on Tuesday or Wednsday and I'll be gone for a week. I will not be able to post anything during that period, so anyone can feel free to carry my character, if the RPG moves on. I'll let you know tomorrow if I am leaving or not, and when I am leaving.
