You got it!

I think I'll be betting on Minas Taxi for this one. 10 points for me!

Wow, I didn't expect some of that... Oh well, that’s what the game is about.

So far:

Mount Zoom = Done - Rats turned into Rat Wraiths (No direction yet)

Bag Endless-fuel = Not done

Orth-Tank = Not done

Barad-Dash = Not done

Medul-zoom = Done - Rats scared off by weird worm (Heading North)

Minas Mor-go = Not done

Minas Taxi = Not done... and has a few Rat Wraiths heading for it!

Well, I'm bored. So, for those interested I've made little posters for all the vehicles... (I can only fit 5 on a post...)

Hehehe! Those are great, Hookbill!


Also- I'm going away for the weekend; my cousin just had twins so we're all going over to visit her for Easter. That means you're in charge of Mount Zoom, Glirdan.

I shall lead and we shall not get lost. I think I'll come up with an idea of you getting terribly ill and then suddenly better.

Also, Hookbill, I'll be putting up the direction shortly.

I can't let you swear everlasting vengeance upon my racing partner so I'd better tell you what hiiri means although I would have assumed that you know the word quite well... Daga.

As soon as Orth-Tank has got past the rats and stated a direction, start ye voting! (I may be asleep at the time, but vote anyway, I'll pick 'em up in the morning)

Sorry for being so tardy but I've been busy these last two days. Its rather late night now but I'll have it done first thing next morning, I guess it'd be while you're asleep Hookbill. (We're three hours ahead of you).

Once again, sorry to leave everyone hanging.

While I like Minas Mor-go's rather creepy solution to the problem and Bag-Endless-fuel's use of the obvious appealing, I'm finding the unrestrained violence of Barad-dash's solution to be irresistable.

Keep on goin'

By the way, there is nothing stopping players posting pre challenge dialogue between the participants in their vehicle.
Reaction to the Rats, the plan ahead and so on.

Get them votes, in folks!

Thumbs up Bong!

End of Voting!

So, lets look at the results!

With player votes counting as 2 points and non-players as 1.

MOUNT ZOOM = 11 points

Bag-Endlessfule = 2 points

Orth-Tank = 2 points

Barad-Dash = 5 points

Medel-zoom = 2 points

Minas Mor-go = 4 points

Minas Taxi = 5 points.

So, the winner of the Rat challenge is Mount Zoom! Look at it go!

The third challenge will be up in a moment or two.


Now, one of you has got to a secret Bonus area!
Orth-Tank is in the Galladen Fields! That was one of the 8 bonus areas. (4 good, 4 bad). The situation will be posted on the game shortly.

Location guide

Okay, a couple of notes to make...

MOUNT ZOOM
= Foot of Misty Mountains

Bag-Endless-fuel
= Foot of Misty Mountains

Orth-Tank
= Galladen Fields (will end up at the Ent Wash)

Barad-Dash
= Edge of River Anduin

Medel-zoom
= Outside of Mirkwood

Minas Mor-go

= Outside of Mirkwood

Minas Taxi
= Foot of Grey Mountains


Barrad-Dash, are you done? If so, that was quick... but still pretty funny.

Question

Are contestants alowed to pass over the Misty Mountains at any point, or do we need to take one of the recognised crossing points?

It really ought to be the latter ...

Although I wouldn't put it past you to have hidden some of your nasty little bonus zones on the crossing points of the Misty Mountains ...

Okay then...

So what ARE the "official" mountain crossing points?

The High Pass by Rivendell,
The Redhorn Pass,
Moria,
and the Gap of Rohan?

As well as going north around the Mountains, I assume...

Aside from playing TiG XX, I have to do a project on 'The Beatles' so I'm sort of tied up. Also, I'll finish the challenge by tommorrow afternoon.

Well, I cannot think of any others, so yes that would be correct.
But a few of the Bonus areas offer passages over the mountains. I won't say which, though, and on which side they are on.

Worry not. The deadline is Friday.

Well, I'm back at last, to reclaim my spot at the wheel of Mt. Zoom. Glirdan and I are working on our latest evil scheme, and we're a bit behind schedule due to my absence. Give us a bit, and we'll be ready. Shouldn't take too long, though. Sorry for any inconvenience.

Welcome back, Maeggaladiel!

Don't worry; you have till Friday (well, probably Saturday morning) to finish Challenge number three.

Keep goin' folks! There are some bonuses ahead, by the way.

I'd like to ask for an extention, too. Glirdan and I are still discussing our options, but I think all we have to do now is figure out who's gonna write it and how. If not tonight, I'd say we'd be ready by tommorrow afternoon.

Okay, you have until Monday.

Sleepy Ranger, Meneltarmacil, remember you have to go on the Anduin boat to the Ent wash after the challenge.

Does the extention go for everyone? Farael and myself have not had much time to pm and I will be away for most of the weekend. We have come up with some ideas, but have not decided how to post yet.
