END OF LAZY LOB

Okay, that’s the end of that challenge. Lets remind ourselves of how they got on...

Mount Zoom = Done - Spider swatted with giant Newspaper (North West)

Bag Endless-fuel = Done - The File of Galadriel as well as many punny things (North West)

Orth-Tank = Lawyer kills spider (WEST)

Barad-Dash = Done - Freed by Dwarfy (South West)

Medul-zoom = Done - Drugged up spider tricked with 'shinning'. (To High Pass)

Minas Mor-go = Done - Swords cut web while #4 fired on catapult (To High Pass)

Minas Taxi = Done - Dancing Spawn let them go due to lack of taste. (West)

***

Boromir88, you have my permission to play as Théoden! Eomer turned down the post and the only other person I had in mind was Nilp, but I've already told him where all the Bonuses are. So, we can't have him!

I did say 'MORE' people might be able to post. Not everyone, if you're going to be pedantic.
But you, saucepan, seem to be getting the challenges posted for in good time. In fact, Bag Endless fuel is the most reliable so far. Could be a vote winner.


VOTING IS OPEN.
Will close on Wednesday 10th May

Spawn, Denethor, Faramir, Húrin, Beregond, Ioreth, Bergil, Mablung, Damrod, and I resent that!

:P

So there!

Who to vote for? Who to vote for?

Voting...

EDIT: I'm planning to do a Top Gear-style analysis of the vehicles involved in this challenge. Can I post it here?

I'm warning you, I will bash some vehicles--not literally, of course--, but please don't take offence.

There is much global speculation on the identity of the Stig.

Be my guest.

By the way, people, with the time for exams ect, I'm thinking of putting in a 'pit stop' here and there. A little break when the exam period is at its height. I, for one, am about to begin my A2 exams, is anyone else involved such?

Voting is still open, folks. I'll close it on Thursday Morning, around 07:30 GMT.

Boromir88 is officially Théoden.

You can still post on the Game if you wish; to further your story, or (in Boromir´s case) get used to your characters.

I've just finished devising the next challenge, by the way. *evil grin* It's going to be a good one, expect the unexpected.

Voting Ends!

Well, a good few votes came in at the last minuet, but the end was still rather close!
Lets tale a look, shall we?

Player votes = 2 points
non player votes = 1 point

MOUNT ZOOM = 1 point

Bag-Endless-fule = 6 points

Orth-Tank = 4 Points

Barad-Dash = 0 points

Medel-zoom = 5 points

Minas Mor-go = 2 points

Minas Taxi = 5 points

So, once again, Bag Endless-fuel is victorious!

P.S. I don't know if anyone has noticed, but on the maps I have carefully removed Mount Doom, Barad Dur and Minas Tirith. (I forgot about Orthank and Minas Morgul till just now). I thought it was a good little joke.
