Why can't I ever draw a picture of Elrond?

Haha well that's the point of Paper Telephone. It was much funnier that way than if Gandalf had been seeking comfort in a pile of stuff.

Wow, these were just brilliant, wonderful - this must have been the best PT round for some time. Well, no wonder: it's been quite long since the last one

Anyway, wonderful, everyone, and there's just soo much to the pics that I'll have to look at all of them again, and again probably... (and maybe even again). They're all just too comlex! Great works, really. And I like also how nicely the theme switched during the course of the PT.

And I don't really get what's so ugly about my Elrond, nor what made Galadriel Glorfindel

That was probably the most hilarious one I've seen! Not that it would have been the maddest or anything but the twists and turns were kind of followable but still insane enough. And especially the pics were just awesome!

The middle-finger of Legate's Sauron still haunts me - and Naz's Jumping Jacks or Lommy's mousepad of Smaug's with the "Welcome to Laketown" advertisment really made me laugh as much as Agan's and The Ka's pictures just made me admire their skills!

And as Agan already said, this round even some texts made me laugh. And that is something...

That. Was. Brilliant. Quite possibly the best thing i've seen all day... I can't even think of what i'd pick out right now; it was all awesome. The growing tension between Elrond & Celebrian is the first thing that comes to mind. "OMG this cake is so good!" xD Amd Smaug's "Welcome to Laketown" mousepad...

And i'm glad people liked my Radagast. : D

Naz's Radagast looks like a happy Buddha I'd hug all day.

Thank you's all around and much more to everyone, especially for patience with my procrastination and scanner problems.

Thanks. The drawing wasn't much in the way of being unique though. Pallando is an anthropomorphication of the typical 'Constructively Complain Here So We'll Ignore You The Rest of The Month' paper I have to fill out in my Dept. meetings, while being given cake as a gift... Even though we make it.

I really liked the tension factor though. Along with the politico conspiracy and soylent green a la dwarves element, it was a cherry on top.
Elrond and Celebrian just remind me of every seasoned couple I've met or watched, especially when one of them has a 'zanny' idea.

This round was amazing, and probably the best I've seen in awhile.

Also, 'Sooo Bomburific!' is now stuck in my head right alongside Oddwen's 'Loose Weight With Boromir the Disco King!', thanks to Nogrod.

If there is room, I'd definately love to join the next game.

My face is so rocked off right now it is not funny. Well, maybe it is a bit funny. Not nearly as funny as anything in this round.

He's just big boned. Hmph.

Wonderful round! Let's have another! I'd love to do it again. I do think that this is my most favourite game of all!

Not sure who's going to mod the next one. If someone else wants to do it, I'd love to be a part of the game. But I don't mind modding again...
