Bandit Crew:

We are sooooo close to the end. We need to get this game moving again. Another week or two of posting and we can hack this thing out! The wedding part got ahead of the bandit part of things. Now the bandits need to catch up.

I've gone back and put a post on the closed thread where Stoatie talks to Ferny the night before the wedding. Ferny tells Stoatie what is going to happen the next day. (This is the same stuff we basically agreed on in the memoes.) This post is on the last page of the closed thread at June 4, 12:13 pm.

I am wondering if there are any other things which still need to go on that closed thread:

1. Nuru - there is a post by Bird where she is "beating" Fosco and it says he's supposed to respond. Do you want to add something? Just send it to me and I'll paste it in. Or do you just want me to erase her note and close it out as is?

2. Nuru - Do you want to have Ferny sit and think about how much he hates Frodo, Sam, etc. that last night before he leaves for Hobbiton? It could go directly after Stoatie leaves.

3. At one point Bird was going to pay the imprisoned Mithadan a visit. Bird, do you want to do that post?

Bandits --I will paste in anything on the old thread that you want me to.

Tomorrow, I will try to do a general post of the two groups arriving on the outskirts of Bag-end: the one to do the kidnapping (Child and Orual) and the other (Mithadan, Nurumaiel) to accost Himaran (Frodo-lad) and give him the ransom note. ( I am pretty busy Tuesday so may not get that up till late at night. My schedule clears out later in the week from Wednesday on, however.)

The bad guys will be hiding in a wooded grove north of the River. The kidnappers will go out first and steal the twins and Gilly, then hightail it back to the plantation where Bird is and the other hobbit kids.

Orual, you and I should coordinate on that if possible.

Then the next pair to go out should be Mith and Nuru.

If there's anyone who's too swamped right now to post in the next two weeks, let Pio or I know, please, and we'll manage.

I am going to send pms to everyone to eyeball this thread. Thanks!

Stoatie....
