If you're going to do it, do it right.So, aside from the fact that I must have missed his proclamation as Examiner and Final Approver of Old School Projects, be sure that I will do the fuck what I want with Supplement VII. I read The Lord of the Rings for the first time at the age of 9, and have re-read the whole trilogy about five or six times. I have also read every other book from Tolkien except for The Children of Húrin. I'm not ashamed to say I've also studied Sindarin and Quenya by the book when I was about 11, filling an exercise book with a little dictionary which has, unfortunately, been lost while moving from my old flat to the current one. I'm not saying that I feel like I'm the biggest fan of Tolkien, only that these are my credentials for Mr. JimLotFP, The Evaluator of Wannabe Old School Game Designers, and anyone else who feels that such information is necessary to determine whether or not I have the right to write such a supplement.
From the books, not the movies.
Also, Mr. JimLotPF, I would like to have some clarification of your comment. I suspect that you wrote it after reading the story of me starting to write the supplement right after watching The Fellowship of the Ring, without actually bothering to ask yourself who the fuck is this guy. I like your adventures very much, and I have great respect and admiration for many of your works. But my threshold of tolerance for casual comments by arrogant middle-aged guys is pretty low, as you can read.
Guess I owe JOESKY my two pennies, only I'm too upset to write anything constructive. Uh, wait!
