If we're taking a vote on the name I'd go for The Island of Psychotic Penguins, but then I would

How many different species of therianthropes are there? As many as our mods want! I'm just waiting for the aquarium version where all the villagers are fish, and are being attacked by the evil were-sharks. They can protected by a Dolphin.

I say go for the philosophical penguins. So many philosophy jokes are just waiting to be made.

And Nogrod, I find your English to be quite good. I didn't even realize it wasn't your first language till I learned where you're from.

And Roa, you simply MUST mod the Weresharks game!

Alright, if I ever decide to mod, I call Weresharks. Dibs, I tell you, DIBS! Of course, no garruntees on ever modding. I like playing far too much.

I'm just shivering from the thought of weresharks!

But what is your opinion? We (Lommy & me) have been thinking about two different scenarios:

1) The old story about the elves making the icy passage to the ME - so what actually happened to those who never made it?

2) A luxury cruise on the fourth age, where a shipwreck would throw a bunch of ME aristocracy on a deserted island?

On both scenarios, you would have to pick up your roles from highly esteemed circles. But which one would be the more interesting? A purely elven game, or a post-LotR aristocracy game?

And as Lommy noted already: we will not be competing with Lmp's game, so we would start only after that game is at an end - and if Samwise doesn't suddenly appear and change his stance on the order of the games.

That's a reasonable concord... We'll see about it.

I think I like the sound of this one best... just call me Diawen.

a most insurrectional suggestion.....

we could always trade identities, just change passwords afterwards; you know,
Nogrod be Diamond,
Diamond be LMP,
LMP be Celuien,
Celuien be Feanor, then back to who we really are once the game's done.

Nah, I didn't really suggest that.
