The Hobbit Hole III - Journey to the Cross-roads!
Posted on 12/17/2002 7:32:02 AM PST by HairOfTheDog
Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!
Journey to the Cross-roads
The Two Towers Edition
Come on! Come in! -if you would like to have some seedcakes and a pint and relax a while. (If it is a special occasion, we still have a few bottles of the old wineyards left!)
Our first thread ( New Zealander builds Hobbit hole ) reached 4,100 posts, and we thought that was big. Our second thread (The New Hobbit Hole ) held us for over 48,000 posts, and we loved it dearly. We talked about moving to a new thread for the last 38,000 posts, but we are really slow to muster! Finally, the time has come. Tomorrow (at 12:01 am, to be precise!) The Two Towers comes out, and we start a new chapter.

We're running frantically to thread implosion. We're in a race. Trying to get there first. Therefore, posting as much as absolutely possible - important information of course.
Family trees would be a good topic for getting the last coupla thousand done - don't you think?

No, it's not time for the Fourth Age yet. Needs to be something before the 4th age.
Could be avoiding Shelob.

Ok...so I'm about 4 hours behind everyone else, but I finally got to see the trailer! Oh joyous rapture! O! Elbereth!
*swooon*
*THUD*
Thank you, ecurbh for your speed in hosting the trailer. Thank you all for letting me know about it's existance, and thank you Bear and WN for giving me the straight-dope on fixing my Quicktime!
To: g'nad
Why are you on dial up?
To: Wneighbor
Ok, call me stupid, but I take it we KNOW at what post we are going to implode???? what post would that be?
To: ItsOurTimeNow
Heh... when a thread reaches 65,535 posts, it's done. Can't post any more messages to it, because of the way the forum software is written. The event has been dubbed the "thread implosion."
By my most recent calculations, it should happen sometime on August 12. Although that may have to be revised... a lot more posting than average has been taking place recently!
To: Wneighbor
Well, with the election coming up, how about The Battle For Middle-Earth?
To: Wneighbor
Good point!....
Muster of....
cant really think of anything...

Thank you, ecurbh for your speed in hosting the trailer.At your service, my good man!
