Sounds good to me.

On a side note:

Are the map and plan on the old thread still valid (Nogrod's)? I make it about 40 miles in old money between Scarburg and Edoras is that right?

Anything goes For that matter, I am not sure I would call Áforglaed necessarily "open-minded", he's just, maybe I would say, chaotic in the way that he doesn't mind So I think we'll still see him going "hey! Look guys, I am sitting next to a Dunlending!" and, say, if something went missing, he would suspect the Dunlending first, but at least he is being kind of honest in this way of thinking.

Fine by me.

Should be. For that matter, I have been thinking (Pio?) if these maps from the previous thread (namely Nog's and Folwren's, I think - Scarburg and surroundings and the general outline of the Hall - probably now somewhat changed, but for the basic orientation purposes) could be linked directly among the sources on the first page of this thread. I used them a few times already on this thread, and it's kind of difficult to look up at this point.

Your wish is my editorial command!

There is now a link to the original page from the Scarburg Meadhall Discussion Thread where the maps and descriptions of the Meadhall and its surrounds are listed.

The link is on post #3 of this discussion thread - HERE

So a few hours passed and nothing happened. I will do my utmost to post later today, but if someone beats me to it, then so be it.

Ok, so I went and fell off the face of the planet after promising to post. Sorry about that. Teaching has begun and I have no internet at home. I cannot possibly write a post at this point in time. I am not sure when I'll be able to. Internet comes on at home on Saturday, though!

Haha. When I first read your question I thought you were inserting 'sticking' for some expletive. I re-read it and saw that was not so.

Yes, sir. Well, mine is 2-fold. One reason is RL - mostly the fact that I had no internet at home at all last week.

The second is that I started 2 PM posts and haven't yet finished either one.

Honestly, I think most people are waiting for someone to start a post for the next day. I promised to do it, then never did, and I regret saying I could do it when it turns out I couldn't.
