Hmmmm. . . I don't think anybody could refuse a signed copy of Evil Glorified

As long as we throw in some orcs.

I'm thinking Saruman/Sleepy and I should go for one of the various secret weapons we've installed and loose the rabid killer hamsters on the troll.

The rabid killer hamsters, eh? Sounds interesting.

Everyone can vote for the best strategy as soon as everyone has got past it.
I'd ask that every Vehicle be past the Troll by Tuesday night at the latest. Voting will close on Wednesday at 15:00 GMT, depending on how quickly the task is completed.

I haven't consulted with Sleepy on this yet, just to let you know.

Heres what I have in mind- Reply to my post with any ideas you have, it'll be up soon.

Don't blame me! I'm not the one who left all the money in an easily accessible pocket am I?

Good post, Sleepy!

I can just imagine Saruman doing some Disco moves!

By the way folks, I've hidden some secret bonus places around. Some will jump you forward, some will knock you back and some will make you sick. Watch out for them!

If you end up on one, I’ll PM you with the situation and when all things are sorted, I’ll post Dwarfy’s commentary on what happens.

Well, THAT's just not fair, Hookbill... unless the taxi lands on one, in which case it's all good.

By the way, I'd like to officially say that I'm really amused by all the posts thus far. Everyone's got such a high quality of humour and writing.

Bag-Endless, in particular, I enjoyed the parody of Bilbo's life and times. Beautiful material there. I must confess, though, that I though you had run out of material after that first post- but it seems I was wrong! Here's to more! From everybody.

(P.S. What does the winning team get at the finish line? First dibs on Modding the first race that Hookbill and Nilp decline? Or is that a consolation prize? Either way, I'd love a shot at it- although if you think this discussion should wait until after this game is mostly over, then I'll clam up now. But it's a testimony to your genius that I'm already hankering after your jobs- while thoroughly enjoying my own... I'd rep you, but Werewolf has currently sapped my power in that field)

(P.P.S. Nilp, where are you? You're missing all the fun!)

(P.P.P.S. Which came first: Hookbill's "Who will win the Big Race?" signature or the idea for the came? Because the sig only had four vehicles...)
