Thanks for the tribs lately :) It will be fun seeing if people are interested in a somewhat silly debate game!

I may have gotten double tribbed by the way I have two notifications and I think my points jumped up another 10.
NPF edit: It's February, the month of carnival, love and the generous spreading of shiny things around.
And since you're gracing all of us with your creativity it's only fair the NPF gives something back as a thank you for being an awesome member.

Ok yeah I know this is a triple post.
But
this post has officially raised the bar already
and provided a smile. Requesting admin take a read.

Hey! This is where lowly minions come along and request tribute points for the great and the good from the even greater and possibly gooder? Yes?
If so could I request some points for @Romeran please? I know you gave him some up there just a few posts ago. I'm asking if you could give a bit more please specifically for contributions to a moribund lore?
(But hold one back for me please, a tax on his signature.)
NPF edit: Sure thing! Loving all the new posts :D

Awh thanks
@Chrysophylax Dives for the request and thanks NPF for the points
Also where's the fun without an at least slightly controversial quotation as a signature. But Gödel rained on Bretrand Russell's parade with his incompleteness theorems anyway

The NPF is on holiday so I am taking over until they return..
Anyways, sil did indeed get given some when it was announced, but piled a bit more on top as I know she has been awfully busy and she still did it, much love to her <3

I spent all day thinking on Goldberry and concluded I probably got things a bit wrong. But I'm giving it another day to think on before returning!

I clearly was also sort of thinking about it as well since I came up with Luthien to give Tolkein some more credit.

Ditto on that last post. And while I am here, could i please request some tribute for Drifa for some amazing riddles that have burned, boiled, and baked my brain most wonderfully? (I refer to Riddles in the Dark thread in the Shire.)

It just mentioned Lore, not a particular thread, but I can go hunting for a new gold star or heart later, when I have more time.

Ah that one, that is just for your overall contributions as it can be SO hard nailing down what classifies as a good lore post. Partly cause one of NPFs alter egos knows nada about da lore :P

A couple of weeks ago a totally anonymous admin tribbed
this post of yours
@Eldy Dunami but I assume that's not the trib you're referring to
