Fairy! A once in a lifetime offer: 5000 points for the Dwarf, we drop the Lore/Riddles top spot issue, and you get exclusive residence in a house built just for you to the west of Undertowers.

OK, I missed the point there medear. I really do wonder whether we need points at all. BUt just now I prefer to think about the Westmarch, and I hope my resonse to that is more on the point when you read it. :)

@Saranna. @Drifa. I have lost the Fairy. You two are much better at this old-fashioned plaza joy and gratitude thing. Do you think that you Drifa might smooch up to the Fairy a little while you Saranna repeat the request for mythical points for the Dwarf (but in that plaza smoochy way that I cannot register)? Do please also call on others who have that fairy-touch. Surely, the more joy and gratitude we can direct at the Fairy the more chance we have of the Fairy as a neighbour in Undertowers.

My dear @NPF, Unfortunately I have to dash off to the Brandywine Gate where we are expecting a most important new arrival in the Shire, who we will escort from east to west and on all the way to our home under the Tower Hills, just east of the house that we built for you. So I leave you to discuss the riddle-points award and the move to the Westmarch with some more capable friends. In the meanwhile, may I offer you a glimpse of two views from the new house that awaits you? Do feel free to direct any questions about the house to Dwarf or Librarian.
As I was saying, I have to go and meet the chef who used to work at the Prancing Pony, the one who does the amazing surprise breakfasts. I don't know what the Prancing Pony fare is going to taste like tomorrow, because - after some delicate negotiations - we have poached their top cook, who just yesterday in Bree signed up to work at Fairbairn's open house under the three Elf-towers. Breakfast will soon be a short walk from the house of the Fairy - but I have to dash, the others can speak on my behalf.
NPF edit: I must admit, I got a bit scared earlier with the unusual demands and requests.
But those fields look so lovely! I am truly tempted to at least come and visit, if nothing else... Surprise breakfasts are the best kind, too...

Hi @Saranna - Don't be fooled. Underneath Tree and Hill lies a crafty, cunning, sly dragon. Let him do his grovelling - old-fashioned plaza joy and gratitude thing. Blah! The nerve, calling us old fashion.

@NFP, a new offer.
Hill, Hill, & Hill is prepared to close at 35 points to @Drifa for the Chubb-Baggins riddle, if you take up your abode in the house in the Westmarch.
What do you say?
NPF: I can give Drifa 2!

Off the record, would you consider a straight swap of Fairy for Dwarf? Then the Westmarch could have the Fairy we have always wanted and the plaza would have the NPD, the NuPlaza Dwarf who hands out the points with an old-fashioned smile.

@Hill and @NPF: While this whole exchange has been truly entertaining, I'm going to have to ask you both to stop interfering with the true purpose of the thread:
Point requests may be made, and either granted or denied.
However entertaining, please refrain from haggling (as I saw the NPF was starting to engage in just now!) as well as offering meals and real estate. Either of you may make a thread for such purposes in OOME, of course.
Much love from your Ranger Admin.
NPF edit: Since the post below this one has disappeared (by decision of its own author), I will reiterate in this post: Drifa has been in fact awarded some sprinkles for her extraordinary contribution to the riddle thread.

Hello, nuplaza points fairy? Could I please request some points for @Dungeon Delver, for The Red Silt specifically, but in general for providing some really good reads on the plaza (appreciated all the more after a long absence)?
Thank you.
NPF edit: Your will has been done!

Many thanks to the NFP and @Chrysophylax Dives for the recognition. It's been quite enjoyable dipping my toes in with the extra time I've found myself with
