I like the latest one though!

Errmm let's see. If I'm not very original, please forgive me but I have this huge headache and I'm trying to think which would cost me a lot of energy without the headache anyway.

If you were Frodo, what would you do first?

1) kick Gandalf really hard where it hurts for sending Bilbo on his adventure, thus creating the whole Ring story
2) kick Bilbo really hard where it hurts for finding the Ring in the first place and making you his heir
3) find a girl at last to clear all suspicions on the gay thing
4) get rid of Sam for the same reason as 3
5) write a book about your adventure and thus become rich
6) visit Mt Doom again to see if you really can't get your precioussss back
7) visit Mordor again to check if Sauron's really gone
8) call Peter Jackson to complain about your role in the trilogy (of course it's too small)
9) hire a secretary to answer all those fan letters for you
10) move from Hobbiton to Rivendell (where it's all nice and quiet now that Elrond's gone
11) stay at home nice and quietly for ever to just forget all about everything

Could only come up with 11. It's probably just dull anyway, but hey, I tried.

Bust-ed Grondy!

Yeah I thought they would be. Just thought I'd have a go.

Thanks, Thingol, but we have already done polls very simillar to those ones, unless we make it a "which actor would you like to meet?" poll.

I was kind of hoping for a TTT or ROTK suggestion. Anyone?

I suppose the ME equivalent would be Manwemas.

It should still be there at the bottom of your menu bar on the Homepage Tommie. It's still there for me.

Anyone else having problems finding/using it?

I didn't see it either, but I do when I'm on the homepage.

rofl! Yes it's there now that you mention it.

Stupid, silly me!

What's your favourite track from the movie-cd's?

1. May it be
2. Gollum's song
3. Bridge of Khazad-dum
4. The riders of Rohan
5. The shadow of the past
6. The Uruk-hai
7. Flight to the ford
8. Helm's deep
9. A journey in the dark
10. The Hornburg
11. The breaking of the fellowship
12. Evenstar

As for additional responses:

idea 1: Goldberry, Deagol, Mablung and Damrod

idea 2: no further ideas really

But those are great ideas, very original ones!

I just posted Tommie's best CD track poll.

Thanks Tommie



(I moved Arcormacolind’va's C’rdan post to What is going to be like??? under The Return of the King.)

[Edited on 12/8/2003 by Grondmaster]

Hey, thanks Grondy! I'm just gonna go do my poll now.

That's a mean one, music. lol

Um, where is Gimli in this list? He's such a hottie.

ok fair enough point, so I've modified it

1 Orlando Bloom
2 Orlando Bloom
3 Orlando Bloom
4 Orlando Bloom
5 Orlando Bloom
6 Orlando Bloom
7 Orlando Bloom
8 Orlando Bloom
9 Orlando Bloom
10 Orlando Bloom

How about,

To you, what is the most important or significant theme/element in the Lord of the Rings?
1. Hope and endurance

5. Friendship, compassion, and love
6. Hospitality and kindness
7. Resisting temptation
8. Redemption and sacrifice

10. Other

You could probably edit it a little to make it fit, if you choose to use it.

that would be the most relevant poll ever!great idea.

Arco's poll is now on the home page. Thanks Arco and Tarrant.

I have a suggestion for a new poll Grondy.

"Out of the following characters which one would you like to walk in his/her footsteps and accomplish their deeds?

Example: I would like to take the place of T’rin and become reknown for his mighty deeds! Too bad I couldn't skip that whole incest part of his life, but you're stuck with the whole nine yards for the character you choose.

Feanor
Fingolfin
Finrod
Beren
Hurin
Thingol
Luthien
Galadriel
Frodo
Bilbo
Tour
Earendil
Elendil
Isildur
Gil-Galad
Turin
Aragorn
Frodo

I wanted to keep adding more characters but I realize there must be a limited amount of space for options to pick from. Maybe just change the Poll and make it 1st/2nd Age only? and have a decent selection of characters from 1st/2nd Age. Next time it can be changed to 3rd/LOTR Age characters. I dunno it's up to the Poll Master.
