Okay, this is a game my older brother came up with, and I thought it would be good for the Downs...
Make a wish. A Tolkien related wish, preferably.
Someone else can grant it, but there must be an ironic, or comical consequence to the wish. They can be serious (if you want) but more likely just plain silly.
Like so.
Someone posts:
I wish I could go to Middle Earth
Someone else posts:
I wish I could go to Middle Earth
Your wish is granted. But you are murdered by Orcs and Saruman takes all your gold.
I wish I had a Silmarill
****
And so on. I hope you get the idea.
Please put your wish in bold letters so everyone can see it.
Here is my wish...
I wish there were more sheriffs in the Shire.

Your wish is granted. There are more Sherrifs in the Shire, they catch you stealing an apple and beat you with a sparrow. They then throw you into the Old Forest where you are eaten alive by Old Man Willow.

Your wish is granted. Gandalf is still around, in fact he is right behind you. He convinces you to give your computer to your nephew because it is 'The One Computer To Rule Them All'. You then depart to Linux while your nephew must go to the Microsoft HQ to destroy 'The One Computer To Rule Them All'.

Gil-Galad doesn't die, he waltzes his way away from Sauron which causes all the females in Middle-Earth to become his fan girls. For many years to follow every female can be heard saying, "OMGZ!!!111!!!11 GILGALD IZ SOOOOOOO SXY!!!11111!!LOLOLOL!!!31!11."

I wish Orcs would revert back to elves.
Your wish is granted. Orcs are Elves again, but unfortunately they have kept the stench of Mordor and are therefore shunned by other Elves. The growing enmity makes them much worse foes than they were as orcs, for they cannot be distinguished from friends by their appearance.

Your wish is granted. Sauron is killed, the Rings of Power are never made, The Lord of the Rings never happens. The Barrow-Downs are never made, Numenor would not be destroyed meaning Gondor would never be around, the Elves would be snobbier.... and oh yeah... this topic would have never been made. :)

Your wish is granted! Varda leaves Manwe to marry Morgoth! Morgoth is a very bad husband, and constantly beats Varda. She divorces him, and tries to go back with Manwe, but he is heartbroken. In anger, he removes Arda from the stars, and casts Varda into the void. She would be stuck there for all eternity with her abusive husband, Morgoth!

I wish Boromir hadn't died.

I wish Boromir hadn't died.
Your wish is granted.
Boromir's conversion to the Lite side saves him and he is able to forge a rejuvenated Fellowship in support of Frodo's quest to destroy the Ring. His strategic choices, his wit, his self determination and self-knowledge, his assertive training of others, brings him ever and ever greater renown.
Aragorn, in awe of this new Boromir, decides to forgo the throne of Gondor in favour of Arwen's favours and returns with her to Lothlorien, where they set up the first hippy commune.
But first he works tirelessly to educate the men and let us not forget the women also in the values of true leadership. Before Aragorn leaves, a strong form of constitutional stewardship is established in Gondor, to be remembered long years after in the form of parliamentary democracy established in the 7th age in the country called Cânâgórnmïr, one of the few remaining nations that still revered the two Trees in their contemporary form of the Maple Leaf Forever.

Your wish is granted.
After Aragorn brought Eowyn out of the darkness and she was walking around again, she decided to not listen to Faramir or the Head Healer and went off after the men of Gondor and Rohan to the Battle of the Black Gate. There, she saved Pippin from being crushed by the troll and Aragorn forgot his love for Arwen and married Eowyn instead. And Arwen married Haldi and they crossed over into valinor with Elrond, Galadriel, Frodo, Gandalf and Bilbo. Everybody's happy.

Your wish is granted. Unfortunately, Glorfindel falls off the horse due to Frodo's weight and is cut out from the movie with a lean pension and nothing else. Legolas gets sulky, and refuses to do the amazing surfboard thingy in the movie because he thinks it would be dangerous. Then the OMG Orlando RULES fans have no one to be crazy for, so the movie was not as good, and then eventually the whole thing was scrapped.

Your wish is granted! Hurin sits next door all day watching the same old channel. His children are actors in Morgoth's new reality TV. Once the writers kill them off, Hurin runs around in a panicked circle in your front lawn. He finds his wife, and buries her on your porch. Rest assured though, your porch will never sink. He then goes to the Gas Station to buy a microwaveable burrito, but there's a dwarf in his way. He kills the dwarf and takes the burrito, and turns to your house. He gives you the burrito, and you attach your central air to it. You are happy, for a time. A group of dwarves come later to fix a hole in your basement plumbing, and begin redecorating your whole house. When they're done, they want the Central Air encrusted Burrito, but you won't give it up! They kill you, but they don't get the burrito and central air. Your neighbor truly lived a bad life, and casts himself into the broken plumbing!

Legolas sees him when he gets to Mordor with his awesome elf vision, assumes he is something evil because nobody knows yet that hobbits can fly. Legolas shoots Frodo and the ring falls on an orc, who brings it to Sauron. Middle Earth has been destroyed.

Your wish is granted. Unfourtunately, the afro blocked his view from everything and instead of picking Bilbo to go with the Dwarves, he picked Lobelia!! :eek: And because he chose Lobelia, the ruin of Middle-Earth came early.

Poof! Sauron is Grilled Cheese. And Mount Doom is turned into a Bowl of Tomato Soup. Sauron is eaten by the starving orcs of Mordor.

Boromir88

I wish Gandalf was a Giant-sized Snow Cone.
I grant your wish, but you eat Gandalf the Giant-sized Snow Cone, which gives you an uncurable brainfreeze until which you have to embark on a long, dangerous, treacherous year's journey to Mount Doom where to get rid of the brainfreeze you need to jump in the lava.

Thou hast made a wish! I have granted it ye!
Sauron fears cats. So much, in fact, that he begins to hate them, and all things that look like them. That, he decided, includes Hobbits, and so has them all killed before the Ring is even made. Oh dear.

There are more Rings of power. So many in fact that Sauron can't keep track of them all and loses a whole bunch. A gang of Skewrls finds some and they take over Middle-Earth! The End.

I wish Helm's Deep was a giant burger bar.

I wish Helm's Deep was a giant burger bar.
Alakazam! And your wish is granted. However, all the defenders of Helms Deep are too interested in getting their Hornburger, Saruman's orcs kill everyone. Meaning no Theoden, Aragorn...etc, no Army of the Dead or Rohan coming to Save Minas Tirith...Sauron wins and you know the rest.

I wish that Radagast had been more involved.

Someone else can grant it, but there must be an ironic, or comical consequence to the wish. They can be serious (if you want) but more likely just plain silly.
I think I'll try this out...
I wish that Radagast had been more involved.
Your wish is not granted! Radagast stays obscure in the books and is rarely mentioned. Because of this, he never starts the fan club he's been dreaming of, and constantly asks the Mockingbirds why they mock him. :D
I wish Sauron was really a hobbit.
Boromir88
10-03-2005, 05:57 PM

Boromir88

I wish Gondor and Harad/Umbar would be the best of friends.

I wish Saruman had blue hair and was a hippy
Your wish is granted. Saruman smokes too much pot. Gandalf sees that he's relaxed and not worried about Mordor and joins him. In staring at their fingers, they forget about Frodo, the Fellowship and the Ring. When Gandalf finally remembers, he jumps into his VW bus, which stalls, drives to them as fast as he can, then sees them and, still hallucinating, thinks they're orcs. He hits them with his bus and leaves the bodies there for the Nazgul to find.
I wish there were more Gollum/Smeagol conversations in the movies.

Gollum/smeagol have more conversations in the movie. As a result a large society of Schitzofrenics gets mad and sues PJ and Newline for making fun of them, and a s a result all gollum/smeagol conversations had to be cut.\\

Eorl of Rohan
10-03-2005, 11:51 PM
I wish The Anduin was a river of chocolate.
Your wish is granted! Eru sees it fit to turn Anduin into a river of chocolate, as well as every other river, and they all eventually harden into a cake of massive chocolate - which, despite Elrond's effort, wouldn't rise into a tide to sweep away the Nazgul - so Nazgul captures Frodo and seize the ring, who immediately uses it to turn all the water in middle earth into chocolate, which didn't work out as well for him, because everyone died from dehydration and he had no one else to rule and torture, so he swallows the ring and dies. The end.

Your wish is granted. The Ring starts his own mini series where he flies around saving the day. Super Ring out shines The Lord of the Rings and Tolkien fans the world over convert to Super Ring fans. Tolkien rises from the Dead and destroys all copies of the Lord of the Rings because he loves Super Ring so much.

arcticstorm

Your wish is granted, but since Eomer of the Rohirrim plays Theoden, and since Legolas plays Elrond, and since Boromir88 plays Faramir, there is endless confusion, and it goes down in history as the worst play ever, thus adding to the poor reputation of the LotR in critics' minds...

Your wish is granted. The Anduin is a river of thick melted hot fudge sauce. The Fellowship's boats become trapped in the chocolate when they leave Lorien. They then try to eat the river only to fall in and drown, thus meeting a death by Chocolate. The Quest fails and Sauron wins.

The Shire is replaced by a giant concrete war monument, attracting thousands of tourists per year.

Gandalf removes his hat (among other things), and pulls from it, a pile of stones. Then he says "Thine wish is granted" and throws the stones away as they were irrelevant.

Your wish is my command, sir! Farmer Maggot decides to give the hobbits a limitless supply of Mushrooms, but to supply it his mushroom fields needed to be also limitless, so, to grant your wishes, he goes and buys up the whole of middle earth - including the Valinor(the special mushrooms that have seen the light of the trees, now given for free!), the sunken land of Numenor (trying to grow a specimen of underwater mushrooms), and in fact everything else. Therefore, he is now the legal owner of whole middle earth, putting out of business the king of Gondor, as well as Rohan, Sauron, and the Barrow-wights (He smoked us out from our den of black and green, and sold us into slavery where we were forced to grow agaric mushrooms day and night.)

Your wish is granted. B-W saw Bilbo on his way to The Lonely Mountain and he killed Bilbo and took the Ring. He usurped Sauron from the throne and became the ruler of Middle-Earth where all his fellow Downer's had a city or village they owned. However, the subjects of those villages soon grew tired of endless disscussions about Warg and Warg-Riders, making up Crazy Captions for pictures of the Fellowship and endless debates on who/what/where Tom Bombadil came from/is and whether or not Balrog's had wings. They then rebbeled and usruped B-W from his throne and peace was restored in Middle-Earth, but the Downer's still lived there in peace and harmony.

I wish all those killed by a falling rock could have met a more honorable death.
Your wish is not granted. Sorry, but the way they die is not under Gandalf's control.
I wish that Tree Beard would visit Bag End one day.

Granted. All those people that went around and killed people, by the urging of a falling rock, were given a more honorable death than their victims.

I wish Butterbur wasn't so dim-witted.
Eorl of Rohan
10-08-2005, 06:38 AM
I wish Butterbur wasn't so dim-witted.
Butterbur is now not so dim-witted - he is clever, so amazingly clever, in fact, that he goes and devises a way to send Gandalf's letter actually BEFORE he wrote it - therefore Frodo and his gang reach Imradris when Boromir was not yet there, (he arrived just the day before the hobbits did, Elrond said in the book), and Gandalf was still imprisoned by Saruman, and then the Fellowship is never made - so and so Sauron does not take over the world, here note the word 'not', because Tolkien never writes bad endings. Bad for the moral, see?
I wish Hookbill was active in the roleplay section as well. (hey, I like it there!)

I wish Hookbill was active in the roleplay section as well. (hey, I like it there!)
Your wish is granted. He is so active in the RPG section, that he crowds all games with his posts and everyone has problems with figuring out what characters other than Hookbill's have done or said, that RPG mods decide to banish him from the RPG sections. This causes Hookbill to be very depressed and at the end he kills himself by trying to send anthrax-powder to the RPG mods.
I wish that Arwen had fallen in love with Legolas instead of Aragorn.
Glirdan
10-08-2005, 10:15 AM
Abra Kadabra!!! Your wish is granted. As soon as she laid eyes on Legolas, she forgot all about her love for Aragorn and became so deeply immersed in her woe because everyone knew tha Legolas didn't swing that way ( :p :rolleyes: ) that she ended up dieing.
I wish that Fëanor and his sons weren't so bigheaded.
Gothmog

I wish that Fëanor and his sons weren't so bigheaded.
And your wish is granted. But The Silmarillion wouldn't be very interesting without them forever fighting for the jewels, so it ends up as a reeaaaally boring book about the elven life in Valinor, big brother style. 9875 years of intrigues in a bookseries of 342 books. And of course nobody reads them...
I wish the Ring was made of Winegum

I wish the Ring was made of Winegum
your wish is granted, The Ring was much sought as being the one winegum to rule them all, but as the years go older, the Winegum got stale and harder, so everyone forgot about it and bought Reese Peanut Butter Cups and there was no story left to make LOTR's trilogy

I wish Aragorn would take a bath for once

I wish Aragorn would take a bath for once
Your wish is granted! Aragorn now takes a bath - on which, Bilbo sues Aragorn for infringing the copyright of his bath song. However, Aragorn puts pressure on the courtroom judges so that his request for a trial is denied. Bilbo in a fit of rage breaks into Aragorn's bath-chamber, and drowns him in soapy water while humming to the tune - Ho! For the warm bath at the End of Day(s)! Of course, his prediction is fulfilled.
I wish Gil-Galad would post after me. Yay! It happened.

I wish Aragorn would take a bath for once
your wish is granted. though after Aragorn took a bath, his ratings fell and he lost the gondor Idol title, ironically Gimli was second place so he became the new King of Gondor and married Arwen and had 3 beauitful childeren, Immanuel, Joespeh and Supa Fly.

Your wish is granted. Tom releases his recording and it is played over loudspeakers that can be heard from Harad to the Grey Havens 24 hours a day. Unfortunately, the incessant ring-a-ding-dillos drive everyone within earshot to insanity, so the citizens of Middle-earth smash all copies of the recording and exile Tom to unknown lands in the East.

Whoosh! Your wish is granted! However, due to Dwarves being hoarders rather than spenders of cash, most of the rides are incredibly dangerous and or unfinished. Five Hobbits, three elves, seven and a half men and two goblins die on the first day.

I wish that some Barrow Down’s merchandise were available in everyone’s local shop.
Your wish is granted. Everyone's local shop got mysteriously crowded with Barrow-Down's items. Because they mysteriously appeared there, they were shot out. But they kept coming back. Eventually, the UN decided to shut the Barrow-Downs and all of the members decided to rebel and we ended up ruling the world, B-W being the Supreme ruler.

I wish Butterbur had sent the letter from Gandalf.
Done. But he entrusted the letter to Pallando, who had returned from the East to drink ale in Bree. While drinking, he forgot all about the letter and brought it with him on his wanderings instead of delivering it. Frodo never received the letter, decided not to trust Strider and was eaten by Neekerbreekers while lost on the road to Rivendell.

Consider it done. Sam and Gollum become the best of friends and Frodo becomes their third wheel. Sam and Gollum decide to open a resturant and they name it 'Fat and Sneaky's', all they serve is taters and raw fish. Frodo, tired of being left out, burns down the resturant and is thrown in jail forced to share a cell with the Mouth of Sauron.

OFF TOPIC: Okay, I see the wish is granted! Tolkien says Arms instead of Brains - what does it mean? Balrogs did not have wings, they had arms! The case is finished!
I wish Gandalf's hat was more magical and contained a limitless supply of food!
ON TOPIC: It now contains a limitless supply of food. However, the rules of the nature are not changed, so the weight of the limitless supply of food crushes Gandalf's head like eggshell and therefore Saruman dances in his grave.

Your wish is granted. Boromir is most vividly portrayed man in the book. But than, nobody seems to remember Frodo or the Ring or that old fellow, forgot the name, you know, one with the beard and always teaching others what to do, that fiery thing in that Moria place got him. How many others there were besides Boromir, you say? I mean, everyone will just quit reading after Boromir is dead, so nobody will know what happened next, but noone will give a penny to know that anyways...

The "Arms" thing came from a joke running in my family. Zombies in modern films don't say "brains!" like they did on old ones, but just groan. Their groans sometimes sound like "arms!" :D
Anyway,
I wish I had a pony named Bill
Your wish is granted. But due to Gandalf asking for your wish in writing, you accidentally write "Phoney" and so he gets confused and turns you into an old man called John, who just calls himself Bill.

I wish that Tolkien had finished The New Shadow.
Your wish is granted
But it turns out that the book is more interesting for movie-making then LoTR is- I mean, political strife, revolution, that kind of thing. Peter Jackson is not filming the trilogy, but goes for the New Shadow insted, which turns out to be ordinary conspiracy movie. No oscars, no renown. As a result, people like me are not turned to Tolkien and the Barrow-Downs remains small place. Since it is small, no such topic as this one is made, no one wishes that New Shadow was finished, so it is no finished, no one films it, Jackson films LoTR, the board swells, the topic is made, you wish for it, it is filmed, BD again is small.... a-a-a-a, Time Circle!

Going along with the 'time-circle' theme here ... your wish is granted, but than, Narsil is not broken, Sauron is beaten there and then and the Ring is melted by the heat of the lazer. End of story - no Lord of the Rings books (not to mention movies) - no BarrowDowns - no lightsabers - story is written again and so forth (same principle). Story in circle, closed upon itself again :)
I wish Frodo had a helicopter
Eorl of Rohan

Great, Frodo now has a helicopter! After volunteering at Elrond's council, he immediately makes use of it to fly up to the top of Mount Doom, drops the ring into the pit of fire, and then there's no story and therefore no Barrow-Downs and therefore this thread does not exist, and therefore there are too many therefores so that the subscription for this non-existent thread becomes immensely valuable to the eyes of crazy barrow-downers and collectors.

Your wish is granted! Problem is Oliphants are VERY big. Because Hobbits love their new pets so much, they always play with them and after a couple of days, the whole Shire is trashed by galloping Oliphants running after sticks while enthusiastic halflings shout "Fetch, fetch! Good boy! Here you are, ten barrels of apples..." So no more Shire!
I wish Frodo and Sam started a rock band
HerenIstarion
10-12-2005, 09:59 AM
I wish Frodo and Sam started a rock band
Your wish is granted. Unfortunately, neither has more than vague idea what exactly 'rock band' actually is. Assuming it must be relatively numerous group of people throwing stones, they form one. Since they are strictly forbidden by the Thain to throw stones at hobbits, they come into habit of haunting highways to practice on passing dwarves and 'big folk'. As a result, Shire is renamed into Sherwood and its borders closed by royal decree #72 'about highway robbers in the North-West of our country'. Following decline in trade leads to splitting up of the Shire as a state. Hobbits are scattered, and 'far less numerous and prosperous' by the time of publication of The Hobbit

Only Witchking of Angmar and Khamul have any succesful careers though. Because nobody knows what the others names are, they're soon forgotten. The 7 forgotten ringwraiths decides that it would be better to gather the old crew again, but the two other doesn't find this very tempting. They're making big money on their own, so a bitter feud starts. It all ends with a devastating battle which ruins Minas Morgul and nobody's sorry for that. It was kind of a dump anyway...

Unfortunately while he was trying to stop Saruman Aragorn took a bath and was crowned most beautiful.

I wish Bilbo had done more fighting in the Battle of five armies
Granted. Bilbo goes berserk and takes out six hundred and one warg, four hundred sixty four goblins, seventy two hobgoblings and a half an ork (only half, as another half simultaneously falls into a precipice, cut by its own scimitar by accident) single-handed. Also, being a perfect marksman after the fashion of his kind, he spits down seven hundred and three bats. The rest of the five armies are so amazed to see such a fury, they stay stupefied and do no more than gaping at one who was previously thought of as 'that burglar dwarves have'. After Bilbo is exhausted, the antagonists make a truce never to make war with hobbits nearby. Unfortunately, Sauron learns about hobbits and their importance earlier, bides his time until Bilbo The Furious (as he is known after the battle) turns 111 and leaves the Shire and moves his main force against the Shire instead of Gondor. Ring is captured, and despite Bilbo's last stand in Imladris, dark years return to Middle Earth...

Your wish is granted. Beruthiel no longer keeps cats, but instead decides that she likes malteses and toy poodles better. Everyone knows what fabulously great and happy results had that change of history has wrought - her canine pets, and Fenny (My toy poodle, the only one white, set to torment the other dogs), unfortunately were more protective of their mistress than would've the cats, and therefore Queen Beruthiel didn't get exiled but continued to terrorize her territory until they were all wiped out by Rabies. The results were only fabulously great and happy to the Haradrim, the only race that lived to tell this tale.

Wee! Now these two are best friends ever. However, as it is theoretically impossible to ever love anyone more than oneself, (Love directed toward another in in fact the sub-division of self-love that deals in giving metal pleasure to oneself by loving the other.) Gandalf IS Witch King, which, despite the immensity of this, does not change the fact that Frodo destroyed the ring, because fate governs mysteriously and this incident has been pre-ordained from the first.

AND BY STUPID THING, I MEANT SAURON IN REGARDS TO 1000 READERS POST, WHICH WOULD HAVE BEEN QUITE OBVIOUS IF ONE HAS ACTUALLY READ THE POST I WAS REPLYING TO!
Oh, dear, I think I should control my feelings. Why do people immediately assume that North Koreans are full of 'Our Father Kim Jung-Il the benevolent' and all that crap? +trembles with anger+

I wish Ents would ride on Oliphants.
And your wish is granted! Ents take up oliphant riding and everyone in Middle-Earth is terrified of them. They just stomp and herd everything in sight!

Wow! Gandalf makes fireworks the size of houses and your wish is granted! Jackson puts a huge song and dance number into the end of The Return of the King. It is sung by all the elves on the boat to Valinor! But everyone is so fed up with waiting for the end that they go around to Jackson's house and fill it with custard.
I wish more Hobbits would believe Bilbo's story and read the Red Book.

I wish more Hobbits would believe Bilbo's story and read the Red Book.
Yay! Now everyone believes Bilbo. In fact, now it is the rage in all the Hobbiton to purchase a 'leather-bound, brand-new copy of the Red Book, signed personally by Bilbo himself, now on sale - limited supply. Don't miss this chance!'. This fad eventually bankrupts almost all hobbits, (except for the illiterate and the already-broke) and the whole Shire territory is sold off to Lobelia Baggins (Illiterate) who eventually create a "Lob" dynasty over the said countryside.
I wish Faramir were only half-brother with Boromir, so that he could feel to scruple in killing him and taking over the throne instead of Aragorn.

I wish Faramir were only half-brother with Boromir, so that he could feel to scruple in killing him and taking over the throne instead of Aragorn.
Ah! Gandalf sees that this may be good, and so grants the wish. But however much Faramir wishes to kill Boromir, when it comes to it, Boromir kills him. Boromir then tries to kill Aragorn, but he kills Boromir. Aragorn then tries to kill Gandalf, but Gandalf kills him. Gandalf then decided to kill Manwe, but he kills Gandalf. Manwe decided to kill Eru, but he kills Manwe and Eru feels sad that he can't think of anyone to kill.
I wish Wromtong had a literal tong made from a worm!

I wish Wromtong had a literal tong made from a worm!
And now he does! Problem is, its wriggling and twisting (not at all satisfied with its present location) so much that he can't produce one single line of understandeble speak. This makes him a very poor advisor, so Theoden decides to fire him. Actually literally firing him: he ties the poor man to one of Gandalfs rockets and sends him flying to the moon. There he met Tilion, whom he became a very goo friend with (both of them lacked of other friends) and all ended happily!
See, not every wish has to end bad!

I wish Sauron had a small, cute pet-puppy
Granted! Sauron is now the owner of Mitzy, an adorable little Yorkie. Or is it Mitzy who owns Sauron? The dog is so spoiled Sauron gives it Orthanc as a dog house and the White Tree of Gondor as a chew toy. Then one day Mitzy runs away and Sauron is so filled with grief he launches his assault on Minas Tirith.

I wish Smaug had decided to be good.
Your wish is granted. But he decided to be good to Sauron and turned Rivendell into charred ruins. He was only killed when he called Sauron a Communist as a compliment. Sauron took offence with that because he was a Nazi.

"Ah! Elbereth, Gilthoniel!" Cries Gandalf. Then, he grants thw wish.
Feanor doesn’t' hear the lies of Morgoth because he is deaf. He no longer becomes a craftsman and decides that he would rather be a taxman for reasons unknown to anyone. He refuses to learn sign language or lip-reading and so doesn’t comprehend anything and is thus exiled from polite society.

Granted! Gandalfs gets white sombrero. But with it comes ranch which needs looking after, so Gandalf settles down and becomes a cowboy. The Gondor armies are now supplied with perfect meat with Gandalf's G brandmark, they are well-fed, but leaderless, and they lose the war
I wish there were other titles in Sauron's service besides his 'Mouth', like, Nose of Sauron, Ears of Sauron, Armpit of Sauron and maybe even Buttocks of Sauron too

Your wish is granted. But they all quarrel over supremacy and career oportunities, so each body member promoted to be new Head lasts no more than two days. Eventually, least agile and clever Mouth is left to be Sauron's sole representative by the time of the war of the Ring.

Grudgingly granted. But when you possess the book, you find that in book form you cannot do a lot, not even read yourself and so you fall into despair.

Your wish is granted. But since it is impossible to remove ork stench, the reformers chose to approach the problem from different angle. All the Free Peoples undergo nose-circumcision operation in the early childhood. Noselessness becomes hallmark of progress and democracy, and the custom is emulated by population of near Harad in the early days of Aragorn's reign. And though much beauty is lost forever when Legolas' nose is gone, new fashion of wearing mithril prosthetic nose-devices is introduced by him to Mirkwood haut monde...

Your wish is granted. But the stomach ache was not the worst that happened to him. When the Dwarves figured it out they killed him with there axes.
I wish that Radagast had realized that Saruman was up to no good.
Lord Melkor
10-21-2005, 07:17 PM
Your wish is granted. Enraged by Saruman's treachery Radagast calls in some favours with the Eagles, who launch a full-scale aerial assault on Isengard. However, Saruman's machinery succeeds in driving them off with heavy casualties, including Gwaihir. As a result the Eagles will not be able to aid Aragorn's army at the Black Gate and Aragorn, Merry, Pippin, Legolas and Gimli are all killed in battle.

Your wish is granted. However, when they try to remove his spine, Manwe gets rather annoyed and asks them what they think they are doing. When he finds out, he is very upset and decided to go and sit in Taniquetil for a while before dressing Varda up as himself and leaving her at the gates of Angband.

Your wish is granted. Unfortunately one of the steeds dropped the Witch-King into the Dead Marshes. He found Frodo, Sam, and Gollum and brought them to an Orc patrol after removing the One Ring. They all went to Barad-Dur, where the Hobbits were tortured for years. With the power of the Ring Sauron conquered all of Middle-Earth and ruled it for thousands of years.

Granted. Aragorn dies in his place, and without a brave and noble king to lead them, Gondor does not go to the Black Gate, thus causing problems for Frodo and Sam. Luckily, Rohan still goes and buys enough time for the ring to be destroyed, although Eomer and most of Rohan's army die in battle.

Wish Granted! But upon hearing the distance calls of Ulmo's mighty horns his deep and terrible music most literally blows you and your fellow's minds. Or all at once we fall into a mighty, incurable depression while empathizing with Nienna, and Middle Earth becomes rid of Zoloft...thus making Frodo unable to function and/or destroy the ring of power. Poof! Sauron's back in action!

Children of all ages gather 'round! Valesse's wish has been granted!
Middle-Earth becomes home to an "All Elven" circus and Elrond is the ring master. Galadriel wows the crowd with her trained poodles. Celeborn is the lion tamer. Glorifindel is the tight-rope walker. And Arwen juggles Hobbits. It is quite the sight to see.

Your wish is granted. But Saruman used the money to start a career in politics during which he was appointed director of Health and Human Services. But after a terrorist attack by the AGES, Anti-Genetic Engineering Society, which was secretly founded by Saruman, he became president for life. He was only stopped after Merlin put a spell on him that he could only tell the truth, but even so he was only defeated after a bloody civil war.

Your wish is granted. However, Morgoth fell on top of Fingolfin and killed him. What's more, Sauron was the only one who saw the fight and so he took on the shape of Morgoth and became the new Dark Lord. He hid the body and took the Silmarills and ruled the armies much better than Morgoth ever did. Beleriand is in dire peril! :eek:

Granted. Dinosaurs are in Middle Earth. Dinosaurs being, of course, 'terrible lizards' are just that. They are careless and chaotic, always trashing inns and making elves sick with their terrible jokes. These lizards then go on to make a truly terrible stage show that sends all of Middle Earth into a rage.

Your wish is granted. Unfortunately this was because he had mutated avian flu. He got it from the Orcs and the Orcs spread it to Merry and Pippin and on and on and on until it became a global pandemic.
I wish that Turgon had listened to Tuor and evacuated Gondolin
arcticstorm

your wish is granted,
Turgon evacuates Gondolin. Gothmog and the other balrog survive until the war of wrath when Gothmog flees to Moria, having two balrogs infest the area. Turgon remains high king of the Noldor and leads the armies of the last alliance. He barely survives and keeps Vilya, Gil-galad is still slain though. Imladris is run by Turgon instead of elrond and though the council of Turgon is a great success, when the fellowship goes through Moria, Gothmog and his other pal, destroy the fellowship and Gothmog takes the ring becoming the new dark lord.

I wish Fingolfin would have defeated Melkor
Your wish is granted. But Sauron became the new Dark Lord and made a Ring of Power in Thangorodrim and Thingol asked Beren for Sauron's Ring instead of a Silmaril. Beren reluctantly agreed and was successful and after a great mental struggle gave the Ring to Thingol. One night Beleg, at Melian's pleading, took the Ring from Thingol and flew on an Eagle to Thangorodrim and refused to destroy the Ring. The Eagle then dropped Beleg into Thangorodrim as they previously agreed upon. Meanwhile Thingol killed Melian in a rage and was killed by one of her servants himself. Also Gothmog became the new Dark Lord and ordered a successful assault upon Doriath. This became the Battle of Unnumbered tears.

I wish that Nienor hadn't commited suicide.
Consider it done, Elf-warrior, infact, consider it applied across the board!
Not only does Nienor give in to personal *cough* demons, no one does, and Middle Earth is chalk full of angsty, depressed, and emotional characters, running a muck and wearing large amounts of runny eyeliner. Also, (again) Zoloft is introduced... and then abandoned. We're all far too depressed to take something advertised by a skipping rock-face...head... thing. The Rohirrim appear to turn to bad, Gothic poetry for comfort. Whereas Gondorians everywhere start wearing black...well...more black and become hermits. The peoples of Middle Earth decide that its all just too much for them to bear and gladdly hand over the Ring to Sauron, Frodo and all, so that he might put an end to it all. sniff.
