Hookbill the Goomba · 06-14-2005, 03:34 PM

Unfortunately, the lava served as more than enough fuel.

Kath · 06-14-2005, 04:14 PM

Fortunately the lava was spewing out of the wrong side and so directed the mountain back towards Frodo.

Parmawen · 06-14-2005, 05:54 PM

Unfortunately Frodo has mountainesphobia which is the fear of Mount Dooms, so he ran in the opposite direction, carrying the ring with him.

Vinyacoriel · 06-14-2005, 09:05 PM

Fortunately the ring had a will of it's own and wanted to go back to its master so it made Frodo turn around and go to Mount Doom.

Kath · 06-15-2005, 03:03 AM

Unfortunately this led to a rather amusing tug of war and resulted in the Ring flying out of Frodo's hands and onto the back of a passing troll.

Hookbill the Goomba · 06-15-2005, 04:33 AM

Fortunately, the Troll was run over by Mount Doom.

Gil-Galad · 06-15-2005, 07:13 AM

Unfortunately Frodo woke up again and realized that he was still in the cavern with no ring...

Hookbill the Goomba · 06-15-2005, 07:23 AM

Fortunately, he saw Sam running off with it and knew that Sam was not as fast as he was in a race.

Kath · 06-15-2005, 09:30 AM

Unfortunately Sam miraculously turned into a tortoise and, as we all know, the tortoise always wins the race, which he promptly did.

Meneltarmacil · 06-15-2005, 10:55 AM

Fortunately, the tortoise ran right into a stone wall, knocking itself unconscious.

wilwarin538 · 06-15-2005, 02:25 PM

(whys that fortunate???)

Whatever

Unfortunetaly Tortoises are used to being nocked unconscious so it only lasted afew seconds.

Meneltarmacil · 06-15-2005, 02:27 PM

Fortunately, that was all the time Frodo needed to get the ring.

Hookbill the Goomba · 06-15-2005, 02:30 PM

Unfortunately, Frodo was distracted by a cake shop.

Meneltarmacil · 06-15-2005, 02:46 PM

Fortunately, the tortoise was devoured by a gigantic evil duck and dropped the ring.

wilwarin538 · 06-15-2005, 02:49 PM

Unfortunetaly the tortoise wasn't seasened(sp?) to the gigantic evil duck's likings so he spat him out.

Meneltarmacil · 06-15-2005, 02:54 PM

Fortunately, the tortoise got stepped on by an Oliphaunt before he could get to the ring.

Kath · 06-15-2005, 04:16 PM

Unfortunately oliphaunts can't fit in small caverns so it got stuck, trapping the ring and Frodo beneath it.

Memory of Trees · 06-15-2005, 04:51 PM

Fortunately, Frodo was optomistic, thinking that the ring might be forever entombed by the oliphaunt's behind and never bother anyone again.

Larien Telemnar · 06-15-2005, 05:00 PM

Unfortunately, Frodo would also be forever entombed.

Parmawen · 06-15-2005, 07:57 PM

Fortunately, Sam (who had changed out of tortoise shape) had brought along a small-cave-survival kit, which contained Oliphaunt food to lure it out of the cave.

Gil-Galad · 06-15-2005, 07:58 PM

Unfortunately he read the instructions wrong and put the food over himself, thus making it eat poor poor delicous Sam...

...mmmmm gardener...

THE Ka · 06-15-2005, 11:05 PM

Fortunately, the Oliphaunt spat him out because he hadn't the stomach for such feet and they all (including the ring...) settled on singing I'll stop The world and Melt with You, in which at that time 'Smithy' (Robert Smith) appeared to lead them through the wonderful song...

~ Cure Ka

Meneltarmacil · 06-16-2005, 08:32 AM

Unfortunately, the cave collapsed due to all the vibrations caused by the sound.

Hookbill the Goomba · 06-16-2005, 09:34 AM

Fortunately, Frodo had escaped and was now chasing after the ring as it rolled down a hill.

Kath · 06-16-2005, 09:59 AM

Unfortunately the Ring rolled up the next hill and Frodo was too exhausted to follow it.

Hookbill the Goomba · 06-16-2005, 10:19 AM

Fortunately, it began to role back.

Kath · 06-16-2005, 10:22 AM

Unfortunately Frodo was passed out on the ground and the Ring rolled right back into his mouth and down his throat.

Hookbill the Goomba · 06-16-2005, 10:24 AM

Fortunately, he coughed it out and thus woke up.

Gil-Galad · 06-16-2005, 11:06 AM

Unfortunately Hookbill went into a coma and let other downers post the 'Fortunately' part...

The Elf-warrior · 06-16-2005, 05:21 PM

Fortunately M@P, Gandalf and Sam got out of the cavern alive.

Holbytlass · 06-17-2005, 07:29 AM

Unfortunately, Gandalf and Sam tripped over Hookbill the Goomba's comatose body.

(m@p, ma and pa?)

Kath · 06-17-2005, 08:27 AM

Fortunately this put them close enough to the ground to be able to see the Ring.

M and P - Merry and Pippin.

Hookbill the Goomba · 06-17-2005, 08:30 AM

Unfortunately, a beetle was running away with it.

wilwarin538 · 06-18-2005, 03:29 PM

Fortunately beetles are very easily crushed, which is what happened, by a giant pink CUCUMBER!

Parmawen · 06-18-2005, 07:56 PM

Unfortunately the pink cucumber had been left out of the refrigerator for far too long and was beginning to rot poisonous...rottage?...all around the ring.

Gil-Galad · 06-19-2005, 01:03 PM

Fortunatley the animator for the Pink Cucumber had a fatal heart attack and the cartoon peril was no more...

Hookbill the Goomba · 06-19-2005, 01:11 PM

Unfortunately, it was too late for poor Sam.

Celuien · 06-20-2005, 02:21 PM

Fortunately, the Pink Cucumber's poison was easily counteracted by a sip of miruvor and a pat on the back, restoring Sam to perfect health (but also leaving him a little tipsy...).

Kath · 06-20-2005, 03:56 PM

Unfortunately in the meantime Gandalf had picked up the Ring and become a dark and terrible wizard.

Gil-Galad · 06-20-2005, 03:57 PM

Unfortunately thats what they told Sam, it is in fact much, much, much, much worse
