** General Comments on the Project & Sign Up Thread ** - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Hello, everyone. I've been following this project for the last week or so, slowly trying to climb the learning curve before I posted anything too stupid.

I'm very excited by the project. Although I first heard about it at lotrplaza, I've been looking for just such a project to get involved in for a long time. I've read the Sil half a dozen times now, read the UT twice, and also owned and read all of HOME and Letters. (Admittedly, I do tend to skip over a lot CT's editorial comments when I go through HOME....)

I'm especially interested in doing something with Chapters 7-9 (Although, from the Outline it looks like you have the DoV finished already? I'd love to be able to comment on it if so) In the meantime, I suppose I'll be trying to make my presence felt in the Valaquenta/Ainulindale threads.

Well, I just wanted to say "hello", in hopes of getting my own ball rolling here.

Welcome to the project Raumhir. Do not fear that anythink in DoV is fixed already. The thinks nearly done as jet are very limited: FoG I would count as such and Ainulindale and Valaquenta. But the two later are still under discusssion.

And what ever you feel to need be discussed again (after reading the older discusssion) you should bring up (mostly it would be best placed in a new thread - which by the way anybody is fit to creat).

Welcome, Raumohir!

Findegil is quite correct about DoV - I imagine we'll eventually be starting the whole thing over from scratch.

I look forward to reading your comments and suggestions regarding the Ainulindale and Valaquenta. Also, as Findegil said, feel free to bring up any topics you have something to say on, or to revive any old threads.

Hey guys,

This is a great project and I'm very keen to make form of comments and suggestions in various parts of this project. I've read some of the HoME serious, as well as the Silmarillion several times and UT. I hope that's enough.

Cheers,

Fingolfin.

After reading most of the threads, I believe I can contribute to the Project.

Yes,me.

I haven't read the Lays of Beleriand, but if you need me to I will go out and get it right now. Most of the time I carry around the Silmarillion with me.

I can research topics well and organize my thoughts.

Familiarity with The Lays of Beleriand is not required - though of course, it can't hurt (and it's a very enjoyable book as well).

Please feel free to comment anywhere you feel you have something to contribute. Welcome to the project.
