    Yes we're those lands, but because we control them we are not the elves, but the Valar.

        Your just now figuring out that GoW has been the puppet of Lux since the beginning? Come on, you don't actually think the barbarian warmongers could have stopped their infighting long enough to organize a lux (sneak) invasion of Roleplay do you?

          Does that mean the Vox are the Elves since they left the lands of man to go to the lands of the Valar?

          Or are they the Dwarves, they certainly seem to have settled in mountainous caverns........

            And this all makes Ming and MarkG... ?

            More to the immediate point, it seems GS is Gondor, which is fine by me.
            The greatest delight for man is to inflict defeat on his enemies, to drive them before him, to see those dear to them with their faces bathed in tears, to bestride their horses, to crush in his arms their daughters and wives.

              Naw, you're just a bunch of useless Hobbits that stuck their noses into Ring business when you didn't know better. I hear roasted Hobbit makes good eatin'.

                For the record, the LOTR avatars were my idea. I'm also the one who e-mailed around most of the ones being used by RP and GS.

                That GoW decided to pick up the idea and use LOTR-themed avatars themselves is of their own volition, though I certainly didn't discourage them from playing along with my idea.

                Actually, the LOTR avatars are as old as the war itself, we just weren't able to switch to them for the first 2 weeks while avatars were down.

                As for what Lego is, didn't get that far, really. The idea was really just that RP was Rohan all bottled up inside Helm's Deep desperately trying to cling to its survival... GoW and ND were hordes of evil orcs. GS could be Gondor if they wanted and Lego, if they raise a finger, could I suppose be other allies (Elves, Dwarves, the Lake Men, etc.)... if they work against us, they could be the Eastrons or the Corsairs of Umbar who were each duped by Sauron into serving him

                It wasn't really supposed to be much more complicated than RP being Rohan... the rest was added later.

                  Just for the record the GoW LoTR avatars were UnOrthO's idea, and he made a few of them too.

                    Because there seems to be general agreement between GoW and RP (at least) that we're the "good" guys and you are the "bad" guys.

                    You guys like being the badass evil barbarians who burn and pillage the countryside. Our guys like being the holy warriors desperately attempting to prevent it.

                    Both sides seem rather happy with this depiction, so why not just go with it?
