Who/What's your favorite? - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Thanks for the b-day wishes! (And I'm sorry about the PM box! I swear, there was plenty of room in it when I left! *runs and hides*)

Agreed -- the Gimpy Gothmog fanclub is in full swing! I wonder if there should be a thread just for him, a la Warg & Warg Rider Appreciation Thread.

[a little voice in the back of Enca's head tells her to stay on-topic]

Let's see... my favorite thread at the moment is Have you seen.......? because I like to read people's accounts of elfish beings they've seen or felt.

I should add a few newer faves:

Gurthang- for his posts in Crazy Captions especially (if I’m not mistaken he ‘invented’ the MapQuest trend that’s going on right now)

-and-

Cailin- who really grabbed my attention during WW9 (which I believe was her first WW game) when she surprised me with many long posts of thoughts and detailed analysis. I’m not prejudice but I usually expect more along the lines of fewer and much shorter posts from newer members of the 'Downs playing in their first WW games (no offense to them). I think her five boxes/Fame of Frodo despite only 75 posts speak volumes.

Anyway, just wanted to mention that.

p.s. despite being one of my faves, I'm not 100% sure of Cailin's gender, so I hope to God I got it right!

While I am fond of many downers, my favourite has to be Heren Istarion for that unbeatable combination of knowledge, enthusiasm, gallantry and humour and his careful nurturing of new downers.

However since (as far as I know ) he doesn't venture in to RPG, I will mention someone who doesn't seeem to venture away from it. Piosenniel the patient shepherd and repository of arcane knowledge, who has so far resisted the no doubt great temptation of killing me for too frequently forgetting to remove my sig .
