I'm not holding the game up, by the way. Formy has yet to update the list.

Probably stuck in all that soap.
Not sure who is playing right now...

You say this almost as if I were to be faulted for confusing you all!

However... yes... Lommy is the guilty party hasn't sent me back a sentence.

*frowns over glasses*

And here's the updated list--including the return lap, since apparently its previous absence confuses people. And thanks to THE Ka for rounding us out to an odd number. I think--seriously--that we're about full up now.

1.Wilwa
2.Lady Brooke
3.Oddwen
4.dancing spawn of Ungoliant
5.A Little Green
6.Laurinquë
7.Mnemosyne
8.TheGreatElvenWarrior
9.Eönwë
10.Nogrod
11.Hookbill
12.Isabelkya
13.Aganzir
14.Thinlómien
15.Legate of Amon Lanc
16.Rune
17.Brinniel
18.The Might
19.THE Ka

20.Wilwa
21.Lady Brooke
22.Oddwen
23.dancing spawn of Ungoliant
24.A Little Green
25.Laurinquë
26.Mnemosyne
27.TheGreatElvenWarrior
28.Eönwë
29.Nogrod
30.Hookbill
31.Isabelkya
32.Aganzir
33.Thinlómien
34.Legate of Amon Lanc
35.Rune
36.Brinniel
37.The Might
38.THE Ka

THE Ka · 09-20-2009, 04:02 PM

Actually the thanks should probably go to Aganzir, since she reminded me of paper telephone in the first place, but you're welcome of course too.

Thinlómien · 09-21-2009, 03:59 AM

My apologies for taking time (I forgot it on Thursday and was away for the weekend), but if it makes it any better, I'm seeing Legate today and I can pressure him to make his picture as quick as possible.

Note from Legate: She didn't even mention it

(I didn't get my sentence yet, but I promise I will do my picture soon and will be lot faster than some people around here are

Although I will probably have to do it with Paint, as I lack my scanner here. But I will try to reach the quality standards anyway.)

Thinlómien · 09-22-2009, 12:54 PM

That was just due to more forgetfulness because I forgot to take the sentence with me in case Form wouldn't have sent it!

PS. Next time you can use Greenie's scanner if you wish.

Formendacil · 10-25-2009, 11:19 AM

As you can see below, we're moving ahead. Of course, being a secretive little mod, I wouldn't post this where Lommy could see it, but The Might's PM-box is full, and I need him to clear out at least one message...

*hugs Form*

But see! We're soon halfaway through!

THE Ka · 10-29-2009, 06:48 PM

Pretty please, The Might? Just oooone little message, hmm?

Though, it's actually going pretty steady for such a long list.

~ Ka

Laurinquë · 11-07-2009, 01:56 AM

How long do we usually wait for this? Maybe we should move on without The Might. Just one little message please sir?

Rune Son of Bjarne · 11-07-2009, 06:11 PM

I can understand that people can get busy and that it is not something you can know when you sign up, but I really think this game is taking ridiculously long.

People need to say so if they don't have time to participate or Formy need to take action and move the game along.

Formendacil · 12-21-2009, 02:58 PM

Okay, so here's the updated list, and take note of the underlined names, which indicate those that have been moved around.

1.Wilwa
2.Lady Brooke
3.Oddwen
4.dancing spawn of Ungoliant
5.A Little Green
6.Laurinquë
7.Mnemosyne
8.TheGreatElvenWarrior
9.Eönwë

12.Isabelkya
13.Aganzir
14.Thinlómien
15.Legate of Amon Lanc
16.Rune
17.Brinniel
18.The Might
19.THE Ka

20.Wilwa
21.dancing spawn of Ungoliant
22.Oddwen
23.Laurinquë
24.A Little Green
25.Lady Brooke
26.Mnemosyne
27.TheGreatElvenWarrior
28.Eönwë
29.Nogrod
30.Hookbill
31.Isabelkya
32.Aganzir
33.Thinlómien
34.Legate of Amon Lanc
35.Rune
36.Brinniel
37.The Might
38.THE Ka

With the exception of the odd people staying odd and the even people staying even--so that everybody gets a chance at drawing AND writing, the list can be fluid. But I don't like moving trouble people just because they're slow, because then we'll end with a backlog at the end.

Now, to see if I still have Wilwa's sentence...

EDIT: Sooooo.... yeah, I cleaned out my inbox a long time ago, and while Wilwa's sentence is safe in a document on *my* computer, it's nowhere near me now. If Wilwa wants, and gets it to me today, I can still send it on.

Actually--if Wilwa sees this and can pass on *both* my email address and the sentence to Dancing Spawn, it doesn't even matter if she gets it to me today.

Oddwen · 12-21-2009, 04:19 PM

Wayyyyyy ahead of you there.

wilwarin538 · 12-21-2009, 08:34 PM

So I passed my sentence on to Spawn (you're lucky I hadn't deleted that sent message, haha), but I can't locate your e-mail anywhere Form so you'll have to inform her of what that is.

TheGreatElvenWarrior · 12-22-2009, 06:06 PM

Whenever the sentence gets passed 'round to me again, can you ('you' being Formy) send it -to my email? Who knows when I'll be able to get back on the Downs again.

I've talked with LadyBrooke, and she's got school and other reasons to not draw right now, and has offered to withdraw or switch someone who's already drawn once for a writing spot, but for now we'll just trade her to a drawing spot at the bottom of the list, and we can deal with that when the time comes. Here's the updated list:

1.Wilwa
2.Lady Brooke
3.Oddwen
4.dancing spawn of Ungoliant
5.A Little Green
6.Laurinquë

35.LadyBrooke
36.Brinniel
37.The Might
38.THE Ka

The underscored names are the ones have been moved about this time.

That's means TGEW can expect me to PM her the next sentence--Lauri, I know she's had difficulty getting on the Downs of late, so can you let her know it's been bumped to her turn, and give me her email address to send the sentence--if she can't get on?

TheGreatElvenWarrior · 02-09-2010, 07:34 PM

I'm glad I got my picture out of the way! It was a bit of work.

I'm sending it on to Eönwë right now...

Aganzir · 01-11-2010, 05:44 PM

I can't believe this has been going on for over four months.

*is impatient* I would probably have already forgotten what I drew if I didn't come across it practically every time I go through my sketchbook (a demonstration of how little I've drawn lately)... Crazy.

And here I was, planning to volunteer to mod the next round, but with this pace, it's summer and I'm (hopefully) on the other side of the world with no time on my hands before we're finished with this one...
