Yall have been issuing challenges up a storm (yes, a good thing!). Thank you so much; this makes Maram's and my job a lot easier. Except... now we have so many yummy challenge ideas we don't know what to do with them all. So, you get to pick.
These are the 5 oldest challenges in our queue. Pick the one you like most, and we'll issue it pronto.
Thanks! |

You're right Viv, they're all yummy! I wouldn't mind writing this one *cheeky grin* tho... but the choices are rather hard... I'll think about it over first 
I'm torn between Looking back too... hrmm... *smacks muses down* I have to study!

-snickers- Gandalf the girl.
"Oh Eru! What the <bleep> is this?!" asked Gandalf...the...girl.
"Gandalf?" wondered Aragorn with a  look.
"Aye, it is me..." Gandalf replied, twirling his finger in his hair.
"So, should we call you Gandalfa the White?" Legolas asked with an equally look.
The End...maybe.

OOh, 'Who Done It'. Yay. (Don't care if it doesn't win, the plot bunnies are spawning anyway).

This would mean that Melian was not the only female Maia.

Gandalf the Girl.... the possibilities! My evil sense of humour is starting to make my head ache. The horrors to be inflicted! Manicures...nail polish...PMS.....Pregnancy... I'm not much of a writer, but I might just have to do something, if only to ease the sadistic glee running through my mind. Can any one else picture GFandalf's reaction to a period? And what kind of body would he come back in? An old wisewoman? Or a nubile young thing with a wisdom beyond her years? Or maybe a blond with Valley Girl influences.....  -evil laugh- |

You know, some people with no sense of humor or no imagination (they go hand in hand) could actually get somewhat huffy about Gandalf coming back as a girl ...
... to that I say: BRING IT ON !
I must confess I voted for Leggy simply because I think the poor elf needs some fics without females around messing him up !

Well, they wanna see it, they gotta vote for it.....
Is this bad, but I'm more bothered about the outcome of this vote than that of the General Election in May?

Still a 3-way tie.
Y'know what Viv, just let all of the challenges rip. lol. It's not like they won't write it (when they want to!) anyways.

I'm just totally biased on this as this is the first idea I've had for an LOTR story that's actually gripped me for ages. If it doesn't win, it doesn't win. Personally I don't like the Gandalf as a girl one. The Legolas one could be fun as well I suppose (although I've tried 'realistic Legolas' before and just got 'where's the romance' as a response on FF Net )
