Reputations - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

I'm afraid to say that Elrond's Council looks to be an altogether more formal and stuffy place than Aragorn's court. When I first arrived here I doffed my smoking jacket and was looking forward to lounging around in my underwear with a can of beer, just like in the good old days when it was just davem, SpM and I in Aragorn's Court.

But alas, Elrond came out and offered me sherry which he then poured into an elegant-yet-disappointingly-little crystal glass, and then Arwen showed up so I had to keep my pants on, and when I asked for some pipeweed I was told that Bilbo was all out and had given it up anyway as he is getting on in years. . .

I can't wait for Lalwende and Bethberry to get here so the party can really get started. . .hmmm. . .

*Fordim scurries off, then returns*

Nope, drat it -- have to spread some more rep around before they can get any more from me.

Yeah, and if I hear "Tra-la-la-lalley, Here down in the valley" much more, Mandos is suddenly going to have a lot of business on his hands ...

Pshaw! Elves!

Must be the lack of pipeweed making me irritable ...

Is there a way to view all the reputation points you've received, not just the most recent?

Lyta_Underhill · 01-08-2005, 11:29 AM

I think that, once a member has reached the highest allowable level in reputation, he or she should go back to zero, much like the return to white belt in Bruce Lee's martial art Jeet Kun Do

Cheers,
Lyta (who sends congratulations to all who have reached higher levels than she...oops! That means about half of everybody!) Heh heh...

I fear that would be far too depressing for those of us in the pack ..... since I am sure our frontrunners would garner points at a depressing rate and would soon start to lap .....
