TLA-discussion

[Christiana]

Hey! I've got ideas, just not many on Beren and Luthien. I got plenty of ideas for Tears Unnumbered.(or, should i say, Beers Unnumbered)

Braver than you think. Tano's right though, we do need someone new, we're running out of ideas, much as it grieves me to say it.

Are we running out of ideas? I didn't know that, I thought we were just running out of enthousiasm.

There is what, still a handfull of us posting? That is very little compared to our cast we had in the middle of LoTR. So why are the people we still have not posting? Is it the lack of time? No inspiration? I don't know. Maybe we do need some new blood.

[Count Comfect]

If I may make so bold, I think you all are actually just going through a periodic dip in posting. As one who has VERY recently read through your entire discussion thread, I've noticed points with posts along these lines before... and it always perks up. *does looooong double take, and starts nodding very rapidly* On the other hand, maybe you really do need someone new - can I join up?

P.S. It didn't take much bravery to read them... they're very very funny. And you are all totally, completely, and utterly insane. But that's a good thing where I come from.

[Earniel]

Thanks for your encouraging words, CC. And you're welcome to the TLA. Now all we have to do is find a decent spot to get you in.

Good to hear we haven't lost our touch.

I trust the 'count' in your screen name signifies that you're a boy?

[Count Comfect]

Yes, I am a boy. At least, last I checked. SOME people I know in this group seem to keep wanting me to play girls...
And thank you very much. Good to hear someone I didn't already know say I can join.

[Tanoliel]

Well, you would be funnier as Juliet than me. (Wow, that grammar was terrible...) And humor is what it's all about.

I'd post, but I haven't read much of the Sil and I really don't know what else happens at this point.

I thought so but I wanted to be sure. We haven't had many boys in the TLA yet. They usually go mad after a while.

*grabs Tanoliel by her collar, puts her in a room with no windows, shoves a copy of the Silmarillion in her hands and a handful of chocolate bars. Then locks the door with Tano inside.*
You're not coming out until you read it through, missy!

Ja, no kidding. But I wouldn't worry. County Comfection is entirely mad already, aren't you?
Yeah. He is. So no worries.

Meeep! No windows! *sulks* Fne. I'll read it eventually! I'm in the middle of the beginning of the end of my senior year of highschool! Stress and lack of time are constant companions! *meebles away, hugging Sil to her*

[Count Comfect]

Mad? Why, yes I am. Thought that was plain enough already without me saying that. I mean, I want to join you guys... think about it.
And Tano, you now have no excuse to not read, since you are done with college apps!
Question: since the next thing that happens in the Tolkien version is the Carcharoth/Beren showdown, can I do Carcharoth (who doesn't appear to have ..er... appeared)?

[Finrod Felagund]

Hmmm...we could do some very fun stuff with Carcaroth, however, we've also still got Turin...and Tuor...so you have some options!

The beginning of the end... How dramatic. Don't worry Tano, I won't lock you up but it would be nice if you knew the Sil well enough to write on the RPG. But no need in stressing you overmuch.

Well I just posted an intro to Carcharoth... or Countaroth? So if you want to do the big puppy, be my guest. We'll just have to work our way around you dying soon because otherwise, you'll have a very short TLA-career.

For everybody else- I brought Mr. Nelson in again, now he may be a little more suspicious and might realise there may be some people from his own time around too. (That be us, if I'm not mistaken, the memory is turning a little fuzzy once in a while) Just creating a little suspense.

As usual: will edit if somebody doesn't agree.

[Count Comfect]

As you can probably see, decided not to actually BE Carcharoth, just write him/it in. It would be awfully awkward to die about 3 posts after appearing.

[Christiana]

u can die and then come back, about 50 people have done that.

last time i checked, the ones still posting are me, CC, FF, Earniel, tano, and willow. Can some of you guys go and wake up all the other Seattleites? That would bring a couple of people back into the game.

Whoo! Finally someone's using the plot! It's a miracle!

*twirls off laughing insanely*

[Earniel]

Glad you liked it Willow.

Don't say your cat is named Jinx too!

[Katt_knome_hobbit]

Mr. Nelson is going to become my sworn enemy right now. Bringing guns into Middle Earth. Bastard.

The reason I haven't been posting is that my charactor is DEAD! Oh well, that's never stopped me before. See ya later.

[Earniel]

You died? I was thinking Sauronkatt had gotten away alive after the show down with the giant chihuahua.

Yes, Mr. Nelson is some nasty piece of work but with the proper nudging, he might become an interesting villain.... We haven't had a decent enemy since the Smaugettes.

[Katt_knome_hobbit]

Oh, whatever. I got away. Something.

MR. NELSON is gonna get it from me when he's finally defeated. Only evil can give evil what it so rightiously deserves.

Muah ha ha!!!!! (Five exclamation points. The sure sign of a deranged mind)

Hey, wait a nanosecond! I'm still posting!

...just don't have any Carcharoth ideas.....

By the way, welcome to the TLA Count Comfect! The world of the pink fluffy bunnies, dead people who aren't really dead, strange plot twists, and chocolate-crazy-people awaits. Have fun.

[Willow Oran]

My cat is named Jinx too. He's a adorably demonic little feline who likes to think people's hands are mice, catches birds and spreads feather all over the place, and attacks the feet of whoever is unlucky enough to get up first. (Which is why I never get up before 6:00 to do homework... )

What's your Jinx like?
