As much as I hate to say this, I think I should just resign. I'm just holding everyone back and making the game less fun. I don't want to do that to you guys.
In order to preserve everyone's sanity, then, I shall step down from the helm of Mount Zoom and offer the driver's position to anybody who wants it. *takes off Sauron's helmet that she's wearing and puts it on the table* Hmm. Looks like I had the volume turned up too high. *turns the volume dial from SHOUT to Loud and Intimidating* ;) |
Sad to see you go Maeggaladiel, your posts were good when they came. :(
So, the position of Sauron driving the MIGHTY Mount Zoom is open to anyone who wants to try his or her hand at being a Dark Lord. Quote:

My apologies for our not-quite-so-spirited as usual entry for this challenge. It's a busy time for me, at least, and Spawn warned at the beginning that she'd be busy.
I guess when I signed up in April, I didn't expect things to run this long. All the same, no apologies for the shortness of our entry. I had the idea in mind for a "Burrahobbit" style entry for a while now- and time constraints or no time constraints, I intended to do it sooner or later. So there. :p |
I've no problems with your method, as long as you get the challenge done and you think it will win votes, I see no problems.
If I'm honest, I had no idea of how long this game would take when it began! I knew it would probably be lengthy, but so far it has gone on longer than I expected. (I blame these extended deadlines). |
Apologies (once again) as I have become busy. My final exams are coming up in a month so it's "crack down time" as we call it and I've gotten busy with a whole bunch of things. I will try to get back to posting, but I don't know how possible that will be. But I don't think it would be a wise decision for me to drop out at the same time as my Master, so I shall stay.
Master, it's sad to see you go. May things get better for you. So, finishing that off, I'd like to say I NEED A MASTER AND QUICK!!! :eek: :( |
Well it is exam time at the moment, so perhaps a break would be wise at some time soon. If those taking exams could inform me of when their last exam will be, I can get an idea of when to set up a little 'pit-stop' for the MZC.
|
Dear, oh dear...
Last day of voting for the Singing Elves Game.
Once this challenge is over, I'm issuing a pit stop. This is because so many are dropping out due to workloads and posts are getting shorter. The Pit stop will last from June 5th until 1 July. If anyone objects, do say so. I know a lot of people are on exams at the moment, I am one of these people and can understand that it can be an aggravating time. |
I'm quite sorry. I didn't have any exams, I was just negligent in my duties. So no excuse for me.
Once again, I'm really sorry. :( |
Well, hopefully everyone will be okay after the pit stop.
Anyway, ye voting is finished and closed for the elf challenge! Here be the results: Player votes = 2 points None-player = 1 point MOUNT ZOOM = 2 votes Bag-Endless fuel = 1 point Orth-Tank = 0 Barad-Dash = 0 Medel-zoom = 2 votes Minas Mor-go = 6 points Minas Taxi = 0 So, Minas Mor-go is the winner before the pit stop! |

Location Guide
Mount Zoom = South Minhiriath Bag Endless-fuel = Foot of Blue Mountains Orth-Tank = South of Fangorn / West Fold Barad-Dash = South of Angmar Medul-zoom = North Endwraith Minas Mor-go = South Minhiriath Minas Taxi = South of Angmar |
I for one don't like the idea of the pit stop!! :mad: We are almost finished with this game and I really don't want to have to wait a whole month to play what...three more challenges max? I say you make one last challenge now and we have the whole month to come up with something and then you can work it out from there as to who wins. I don't want to quit, but a month from now I have no idea what I will be up to and I don't want to have to play again for such a short time. Why don't you wrap this one up then if others want to play again someone can start a new game.

And for myself I can only prefer to wait. June is very irregular. |
Well, I'm perfectly fine with a break. I think a lot of people are really busy right now, and even if they aren't, a break might 'rejuvenate' them. It'll be good for the most part. Sorry Valier. :(
++Pit Stop |
I also must vote for
++Pit Stop For two reasons a) I don't have a master anymore b) (RL) My exams are coming up and my time is going to be completely occupied with studying for said exams. |
I have to agree that pit stop is needed. Although i will allow posts on the game thread for character development, setting up plans etcetera.
I would end the pit stop sooner, only I do not know when all the exams and that will be finished. My final exam in on 23rd of June, so after that I'm free to begin the game once again. Glirdan, when do you finish? Moreover, we're still looking for a Dark Lord! |
The official last day is either the 28th or 29th. My teachers are just as confused about as I am in (seriously, our Administration isn't the best in the entire world...) so anytime after the 29th is fine by me.

I've got a mission trip that starts today; I won't get back from it until the 25th of June.

I'd be good to have you back Maeggaladiel!
Three days of the Pit stop left, folks! You can still post on the Game thread with how the characters are dealing with it and what they are discussing (or eating in the Hobbit's case). |
I'll still be pretty busy this summer, but I'll be posting again within a day or two of the end of the pit stop.
|
Well, let’s hope we can get a good last go now!
The Pit stop is over! You can go on now! The next challenge will be up soon. |
Just notifying you that I will have to be away till the 15th. Alas, too many things to do at the moment and also picked up another injury in my last match... I really need to get myself fit again, its costing the team...
I'm sorry but I'll have to be out of the game till the 15th of July. |
What's the time limit for the latest challenge?
A nice long one would suit me down to the ground. Something like two weeks, perhaps? |
I was going to say that you have until Wednesday. The longer time limits have seemed to cause very lacklustre posts with a good few of the players.
But, if you're desperate for a longer time frame, I'm going to say... End of this challenge = Friday 7th July. |
You mean July, right? Because that would mean we get a whole year to post. :p
Speaking of which, do I have a Master yet? I'd really like to know before I go and post thank you. |
... Yes, July. Well spotted. :p
Maeggaladiel will be taking up Sauron again. But for the first week, you're on your own, I'm afraid unless someone pops in to lend a hand. Think of an amusing reason for Sauron to be out of it. :D |
Come along, people!
This is a race, you know! Have you all given up? :( |
I need a master!! Bah! I'll try and think of something funny to put up...but I won't be able to do that until later...
|
I have not heard from Boromir88 yet, so I am not sure if we will be done by Friday. I have some ideas, but nothing concrete yet.:)
|
Oh dear, I go away for a few days and utterly miss the next challenge... Sorry about that. Thanks, Sauce, for covering so effectively. :o
I promise, I'll be here for the next one. :D |
Seeing as only Bag-endless fuel and Orth tank are done, I'll have to give you an extension on this challenge.
Finish the horse challenge by... Monday 10th July. By the way, Meneltarmacil, that was pretty hilarious! :D |
Quote:
I guess it's my turn to need the extension... time has slipped right by me- and Spawn too, apparently... I'll try to get something up over the weekend... but if not, then I guess we'll well deserve the consequent no points. Quote:

I'll try to write something later today. |

I will (hopefully) comeup with something later and post it. However, I must let you all know that sometime this week, the computer is being reformatted. When and how long it will take, I have no clue. Wish I did, but I don't. So, Mount Zoom may be....ummmm, shall ww say, for lack of better words, pit stopped? Sorry everyone! :( |
Once again, I shall be absent here. This is quite possibly the busiest summer of my life. Sorry to once again leave you... (details in my sig....EDIT: Not anymore.)
|
Ahem!

Hmm... We seem to have come to an interesting point...
Mount Zoom = Not Done Bag Endless-fuel = Done - Horse eating men helped out Orth-Tank = Done - Narrator convinced to change the plot Barad-Dash = Not done Medul-zoom = Not done Minas Mor-go = Done - Horses turned into Horse wraiths. Minas Taxi = Not Done 3 are done, yet 4 are not. So, people, what do we do? I don't want to extend the deadline any further, but if I don't then, I'm afraid, Barrad Dash will be disqualified for failing to complete the last 4 challenges. |
