Númenórean Blood Runs Black Planning/Discussion Thread

[The Perky Ent]

I plan for it to be ...um...for it to be....uh...Summer. Yeah, late summer, early Autumn!

Thinlomien your post is fine with me! It was a fun read actually, I wasn't aware we were seeing the king! Oh but what do the four stars mean?

Pio you can put my post up now as Thinlomien has okayed it.

Eorl, yes I thought you were a he for a while but on no account do you intimidate me! What I meant by the silly comment was that it would be silly to describe all the values Curamir had as I thought there was no need. Also,

Your post is definitely better than the rought draft.

I had a rough draft? First I've heard of it!

Apparently there were different customs and different galleys in different countries and diffferent times. Of course, my primary source is Ben-Hur, and as you admitted yourself that you have loved the movie, you must surely have read the part about the shifts and the presiding customs in Rome and in other corsair ships that they were fighting. It does state clearly there that there were shifts. I don't have the book right now, but I do remember that single phrase - "And thy habit?" "It has been to take off and put on every two hours." "It is a hard division, and I will change it, but not yet." - there was also talk of Ben-Hur wanting to be changed from right to left every shift, as to be not misshapen with only one limb used for exercise. However, and this is more verifiable, I would post a link to the 9th grade social studies book (page 198-211) here, but again, (this is my tribulation) it is in Korean, and then there would be no reason to, as apparently you are also right. To quote myself in my last post, though, Fordim, I have already discussed it with Perky before you came aboard, and decided to follow through with his advice, which coincided with your own. I was just putting in an objection, which happens to be my speciality. And, of course, I would be perfectly willing to translate the Social Studies textbook and put it up here if you want a second view of it. It's in the end of term exam, anyway, so it wouldn't be much of a bother as I would be studying it anyway. Although, as the discussion would get nowhere as our resources are different, I think it better to follow American History (more general view, methinks) and cede to your opinions.

Oh, dear Eru. Kath, my apologies. I mistook you for Esau, damnit! (Sorry, Pio, but 'there are circumstances when you want to go and hide out in a mice hole that you couldn't even put your finger in.' Another Korean proverb, when you are apologizing for swearing after committing a blunder. Two, in my case.) This just isn't my day. I deleted that post and hopefully you would yours.

PS. I feel seriously miserable. I knew I shouldn't write when I am in a cheeky mood.

EDIT: Folwren, my grandparents speak Korean because they're Korean.

The planning process for the RPG is now complete.

Please use the Discussion Thread for talking about the game.

Thanks!
