I have been wondering about this myself. I am actually leaning toward ignoring him and his activities. After all did not the townsfolk ignore the village fool in days of olde... I figure he is merely delusional, prone to erratic behavior, but basically harmless.

Oh, I did manage to get another smaller one submitted. I will be reading through Downie's guide and giving that a shot next. We'll see....

This is probably best.

Good luck!!!

Karl Marx on Middle Earth

There is a spectre haunting Middle Earth -- the spectre of Sauron. All the Powers of Middle Earth have entered into a fellowship to exorcise this spectre: Frodo and Sam, Aragorn and Legolas, Eleven archers and Knights of Rohan.

Where is the Ring that has not been decried as binding by all in Middle Earth? Where is the Dark Lord that needs be destroyed by the powerful Fellowship?

Two things have resulted from these points:

I. The Fellowship is already acknowledged by all powers in Middle Earth to be itself a Power.

II. It is high time the Fellowship should openly move against the Dark Lord, tear down Isengard and move against Mount Doom and Mordor itself.

To this end, potential recruits of various groups have assembled in Rivendell and sketched the following Rules of Fellowshipping to be published in Elvish and Numenorian, and the language of men.

Matthew you forgot about me??? Actually he did not


Actually, I did. Having thought about it some more, given the amount of arguments Mayito gets into, his entire life must resemble one big sadistic initiation ritual. I think he's suffered enough. (Although I may be in a minority there.) However, I've decided to wait before sending anyone else my strategy guide, on the grounds that there's about to be a new update to GalCiv and I want to make sure it won't become immediately obsolete.

Incidentally, I'm an elf. We don't have tires.

Mayito lives in a different reality, it would seem.

Queen/Freddie Mercury on Middle Earth

Is this a real ring-
It makes me feel so good-
Drawn to the Dark Lord
No escape to reality
Take off the ring
Look up and see dear old Sam
I'm just a Hobbit, from the town of Bag End
And my name is Frodo, yes Frodo
A little plump, a little low
Anyway the group goes, doesn't really matter to me,
You see....

Frodo, just took a boat
Off with Sam he did a-float
Down the river toward the South
Frodo, are you sure you're right
Dear Sam, I have to throw the ring away
Frodo, oooo-oooo
Didn't mean to make you cry-
Boromir wanted the ring for himself
Carry on, carry on, as Boromir is gone now

Too late, we're in the swamps
Sends shivers down my spine
Sam's whining all the time
Goodbye everybody-I've got to go-
Gotta toss this ring in there and go face Sauron
Frodo, ooooo
I don't want to die
Sometimes Sam I wish we never went out at all

I see a little bitty shadow over there!
Smeagol you! Smeagol you! Will you stop with all the sneaking?
Darkened skies and Dark Lord's very very frightening to me-
Precioussses, Precioussses
Precioussses, Precioussses
Precioussses, I wants it back, I needs it now
I was once a hobbit from a nice family
Spare me life from the power of this ring
Sauron says: I will not let you go, let me go
Sauron says: I will not let you go; let me go
Will not let you go-let me go
Will not let you go-let me go
No, no, no, no, no, no, no
Sauron please, Sauron please, Sauron please let me go
There's a Balrog put inside Moria for them, for them

So you think you can block me and not let me pass?
So you think you can beat me? I will get past!
Uh-oh aieee!- don't break the bridge!
Just falling down, just falling outta here

The wizard he does come back
In a white robe
Everything works out, Everything turns out well

In the last pages, you see....

Thanks....and with further apologies to Quees:

Are you gonna show the mirror tonight?
Ah down beside that red firelight
Are you gonna let the mirror out?
Fat bottomed elves
They make my future seen to me

                    
#311  by Veteran Terl - 2/13/2004 9:51:00 AM

An orc is an orc
Of course of course
Unless the orc
Is a well bred orc
The famous Uruk-Hai!!!

Hi all. Hope all is well.

Matthew, I do have bug-o-phobia which is why I stay at 1.11 and haven't checked out 1.12 or 1.13. Cari said in a post 1.2 should be very stable and I won't be able to stay away from the regular (non-beta) AP. In the mean time I have had no CTD and only one lock-up in many months. That was after the buggy 1.10 versions. So maybe after not having any crashes or freezes or disappearing ships or whatever for many months, I will be ready to explore new versions. I really look forward to the two new races. Sounds cool.

OK, I better get back and finish that Gig maso with only 3 planets in 2 sectors. My 20 is now a 24 and the two 16's are 19's but the economy is kind of slow. Since I got my freighters out early, I am now 200,000 bc rich. And, if one has enough money in Gal Civ (especially mixed with some diplo skills), one can do just about anything - even win with only 3 planets.

Good morning everyone, nice to see you quiet here after the rapture of the tires!!! It was just a prank, I already replaced all the tires with brand news from my store ( really belongs to the Torians, but they generously donated the tires for a few boxes of Liquor and cigars)So all the commercial prank is over, new free tires for those who need ones and free wings for the elfs.

      
#315  by Veteran Terl - 2/13/2004 10:32:35 AM

free wings for the elfs.


Elves do not have wings. Get your mythos straight!

Though according to Black Sabbath faeries do wear boots...

Dr Seuss defending the bridge in Moria

Mr Balrog oh so big
You can snap me like a twig!
Balrogs come and Balrogs go,
Yet you'll not pass, no, no, no!

Boromir in "Fiddler for the Ring"

If I had the damned ring
I would rule the whole entire world!
I would rule and prance about a lot
And rid us of the pesky elves

If I had the damned ring
I'd smack my stupid brother in the head
He thinks he's boss and boy that really hurts
I will truly deal with him....

Frank Zappa on Middle Earth

I'm moving to Isengard
Gonna grow me a crop of big old orcs
Grow them up
Raise them all
Give them a sword to use uptown....
