Hi guys! As bmilder just said, we're apparently going to have to have a new thread for this... which is convenient, as it can function as a kick in the butt. Let's get the TLA back to life!
Speaking of which, where's Eärniel?

Oh, I knew this was going to happen.... As soon as I read the announcement, my first thought was: "darn! The TLA-threads! No!"
Eärniel is back, I just really needed a break from mooting. I will return to the TLA shortly... Well, maybe not shortly but soon... sort of soon... anyway, you catch the idea..

We're losing Eärniel?
I am now truly scared for the existence of the TLA. Hope soon doesn't turn into "never" like some of the people I poke...

No you silly, I was on a break but when you find 32 reported posts in your inbox one morning, you know you have to come back. I meant the 'I will return shortly' as in 'I will post as soon as I caught up with the 185 reply-messages I got while being on break'.
I take it you didn't even miss me then, while I was away the last two weeks. Right. EDIT: Do'h! I editted the wrong post with the link to the new discussion thread! I'm stupid. Blame mod-powers and my dad for talking to me while I try moot. Sorry, CC. I meant that edit to go under my own post.

No, I did, I just chose not to mention it until now . I was wondering why that thread was mouldering... Now, to do proper penance...
yay! she's back! Now, with multiple people posting, maybe we can GET somewhere. EDIT: Now that your post mentions Elemmakil, I just edited my post to not mention him

*feels missed, is happy*
Multiple people posting is good, multiple people posting at the same time is confusing... *eyes go cross-eyed* Your post prior to mine mentioned Elemmakil, so it doesn't look too awkward that I mentioned him. I've just edited my post a little because I wasn't satisfied with how I had mentioned him.

Right. I edited mine because I had posted it before you edited yours, and it was conflicting. So I changed it
Should we make a posting schedule so this doesn't happen again ?

Nah, we can deal with the chaos afterwards. There's always the edit-button. Besides, it's more amusing to be confusing.

And more in tune with the traditions of the TLA
Onward! To war and death!

Oh shoot, I thought we had finally managed to clear the confusion. Oh, well, that's the TLA for ya.
Katt, Eärendil is born already some three posts ago and being raised as we speak. Glorfy is baby-sitting him (and turning into a alcoholic while doing it).

Ok. At least I write anything for him...
I have a brilliant idea!

Is there anything anyone else still wants to do while Gondolina is still standing? I'd say now is the time for that.
Otherwise, I'd vote for moving over to *sniff* the bitter end of the fair city.

Okay, I've waited for a week so I take it no one has any loose strings left to tie in Gondolina? Alright, on with the destruction then!

Arcala, some time has passed since Eärniel fell on top of Ecthelion, so they wouldn't still be below the balcony when the army of Morgoth came knocking. He even had a drinking match with Glorfy in between. It's a little detail, I know. But could you just remove the reference to the getting acquintated?
