I began with this lovely sentence:

"The annual Wizard's Olympics got off to a flying start with Gandalf taking Gold in the Hobbit Toss."

To which Preciousss replied with

Which Rikae thought looked like:

Gandalf the Mauve competes in the hobbit-tossing event at the Pastel Wizard Olympics, while extra hobbit parts wait in a nearby sandbox

Lommy put a bit more colour into the equation

Spawn took up the challenge and poetically stated:

In the noble game of hobbit flinging,
Saruman of Many Colours is doing his thing
While the hobbit flies in great turmoil,
his friend is soaking in a pool of oil

The Ka did a little dance to entertain a tortoise, and then she drew this wonder:

Nimrodel_9 took up the pen (read: keyboard) and said:

Saruman of Many Colors decided to take up cooking and since the only people around to cook for were orcs, he had to have special dishes on his menu such as Frodo-and-Samcakes.

Volo needed a pencil… or possibly a pen… anyway… this is what we got…

The Might brought some Downers into the equation

A crazy looking Davem dressed up in wizard robes has a cook book in one hand and with the other he is pointing Saruman's staff at the Saucepanman who suddently seems to have a brilliant idea.
Next to the Saucepanman there's a table with a piece of cheese and Frodo's head on top. Next to two very stylishly dressed up Uruk-hai with forks and Orc swords in their hands are preparing to have dinner.

Legate of Amon Lanc’s paintbrush was filled with gold. So he got a new one and drew this:

To finish off, Lord Melkor said:

A deranged Frodo wearing his favourite 'Çommand and Conquer' shirt receives electroshock therapy from a very hiply dressed Sam, while two young orc cooks, dressed for an afterwork hip-hop and discoparty, prepare Frodo's dinner using Swiss cheese and Lotho Sackville-Baggins' severed head.

Now this is just terribly funny! All the drawings and descriptions are just great, that was the best Paper telephone I think! Kudos to Hookbill and all participants!!!

...However, I have to add one thing: my official apology to davem and SpM. I would like to proclaim at this moment that what I did was not done with any malicious intent; and to my defence I would like to say that I had no other choice but to draw what TM posted.* So I sincerely hope that even the Mods understand the situation I am in and I won't get banned.

*However, I have a feeling this might have been intentional provocation meant as revenge on me because of guessing too many TM's riddles.

Hahaha! It might be more fun actually to draw then to write! Though I don't think sneaking to the schools only scanner and scanning a drawing like that unnoticed will be so easy next time.

A wonder how the hobbit tossing Gandalf theme could last so long.

Ka, did you read fry instead of fly?

Great work everyone! I'm waiting for the next one with anticipation!

Maybe, I don't quite remember.

I do remember I felt like eating a petit-dej. around dejeuner, so 'fly' became similar to the act of making crepes or making the infamous pancake. So, then of course soaking in oil reminded me of fish (I seem to have an obsession with eating fish, something still a mystery to myself), and Sam was drawn as soaking in batter.

Also, Saruman has always struck me as the culinary type, so it just came to my mind, somehow.
I believe too many a late night studying has taken it's affect, don't you say?

The ending this time was bloody awesome :P

I particulary enjoy Preciousss' crowd of little smilies, it is quite adorable.
