It can do that. It really isn't that good, so don't take it seriously. If you're going to follow something, follow the field guide. I just made the quiz because I was bored.

It was a good idea though.

Yes well. Anyways, just a reminder. If anyone has any other problems to add to the list, just say so. Also, if you've seen the beginning of the thread, you'll see some of us have introduced ourselves

Hi.....my name is.....The Per....ky Ent....and....um....i'm.....i'm a.....downsaholic At first it was just healthy posting. I mean, i balanced my posting equally. A little Books here, and Novices here, and occasionally, movies. I was a prominent poster in the Shire. I had a regular character in the Green Dragon. But then i saw it. It was there in plain sight, but i never saw it until....until now. The Quiz Room. Millions of threads on the move. Every minute, a new responce. I was overwhealmed! I picked a nice thread. Family Ties (with no shoelases). That was my first. It was founded my Nilpaurion Felagond. He changed my life. Immediatly, I was drawn in! I couldn't stop. Then i saw them! 20 Questions on ME, A to Z of Middle Earth, First Age Trivia! i couldn't stop. Pretty soon, there was a collum containing just Perky Ent. But i couldn't stop there! I needed more! I started bumping threads every five seconds! I revived threads from 2 years ago. It was taking over. But then i said, 500 posts and i'll quit. Well, now i'm at around 550 posts and i can't quit. I've tried. I really have. But every time i scroll down to The Shire, i see them. The questions are always there. No one there but he. I just can't stop! I used to be hooked on Quotable Quotes, but i quit. I wish i could do the same for The Quiz Room, but there's too many threads! HEEELLLPPP! *exhales* glad to get that off my chest. Whoooo. It feels good to let it all out. It's nice to share the pain. *exhales* Deep breath.

Looking back, I've changed a lot since then. i guess when I "published" the un-official field guide, I lost the meaning of the thread. At least the reason it was started. But I think this thread can handel both. Anyways, post things for the guide and your story, and this thread will get even better!

P.S. i guess i just haven't been arouhd long enough... that and i'm restricted to one hour a day on the computer.

[The Perky Ent]

Glad you like the downs so much, and sorry for the hour limit.

[elronds_daughter]

not your fault, Perky. it's my dratted parents. *sigh* ah, well. it must be lived with. being fifteen has advantages and disadvantages... (example: advantage: drivers permit in 6 months! disadvantage: parents rules.)

cheers!
