Paper Telephone.

(Tech support note: I don't know if you know, but Imgur can provide you with resized versions of your image. You can get the different-sized thumbnails by adding t, m, l, or h to the image link, between the image number and the .png/.jpg/whatever. Examples: the first image in tiny, medium, large, and huge.)

It's beautiful... it's so beautiful... *.*

I'm fascinated by the fact that we started with the Argonath and somehow wound up back at statues. The hobbit also popped in and out a few times, and as Nog says, that horse...

Thanks, Lommy! This was great fun.

Nope, I did not know that! However the last two links don't work for me. Quite a good illustration how complicated this can be.

Yeah, I'm curious about how there were certain recurring elements, and I really love basically all the pictures and sentences.

I am laughing at the saga of poor Shadowfax (brilliant sentences and pictures there), and quite fascinated how he turned first into a rodent and then into a hobbit. Pitchwife's piece of art might just be my favourite, but I also love Galadriel's which she apologetically admitted she scrambled together in five minutes. Clearly both approaches work.

Also why do nazgûl and wizards always pop up in Paper Telephone even if they were not in the first sentence??

Clearly it's a thing! At least there wasn't the phantom (I think that alternated with the nazgûl anyway).

But anyway, something amazing! Great pictures - some absolute masterpieces, and sentences too, and there was a great variety! Thanks for modding and all the work, Lommy! And thanks everyone for participating! This was so much fun!

I second everybody who has complimented the artwork and creative sentences. I loved the flow of the PT, and I really enjoyed all the beautiful works of art made by all of you. It is gorgeous Tolkien art (with dubious content ).

At least we avoided Gollum this time!

I agree, there was perhaps four or five pictures of extremely high quality, but Pitchwife truly blew me away.

I loved the starting caption, well done Kath for getting the ball rolling in proper fashion.

Of the captions, especially Greenie's was amazing.

I should probably visit the Downs more often, and probably also frequent a more diverse selection of threads.

[Pitchwife]

Wow, this was all kinds of awesome:
- Kath's lovely picture, which left me totally clueless what it was supposed to illustrate (although it makes sense!)
- The whole sequence Greenie / Oddwen / Legate (tranformative sentence!) / sally (adorable rabbit!)
- Hui's pic
- Form's visual condensation of a rather complex sentence
- Lommy's William Blake (I wondered where that sentence came from!)
- TGEW's naked hobbit slave (which prompted an amount of full frontal nudity hitherto unknown on these Downs IIRC) and Greenie's picture
- Baranduin's Witch King (btw can we call you Brandy?)
- G55's well-masked weeping angel warding of the Black Breath, and Form's description thereof
Great job, everyone!

If anyone wants to mod another game, I'm absolutely down to playing (preferably doubles).

I would be up for another round.

Never forget the uncloaked wizards.

[Pitchwife]

Ah, that was during one of my resurrections...

Sure!
