ednoriaednoriatacnukesoul and kugelblitz celebrate their 200th week on the road -- congrats guys! tacnukesoul is also our only long walker, with over 15 miles, and our sole new shield:tacnukesoul 2600 miles!ednoriaedward_stanford, koralleen, and ednoria for making it there. Also, I should have mentioned last week that silmaril has reached the 4 year mark -- she's a few weeks ahead of us.tacnukesoul, with over 15 miles. If only he could count all the miles he's logging getting things ready for the Steampunk Ball, he'd probably be getting a couple new shields this week!lonebearednoriaedward_stanford, who has reached Isengard and is now off to Minas Tirith. That'll take him a while, and we all hope he doesn't break a leg on the way, because I hear that slows you down a lot. Remember to stay away from the Paths of the Dead -- who in their right mind would go THAT way???landkurt has dropped off the list. Which means our average mileage jumped ahead a bunch, again. In fact, it's made it to the Morannon, watched Mount Doom erupt, and since it already did the trip back to Minas Tirith before, I sent it directly back to Rauros to travel with Aragorn. It's gone quite a ways already. I know I said I was thinking of stopping the weekly updates, but no need for anybody else to drop out and make my job any easier, ok?tacnukesoulednoriagiraffeaholic, who has reached Lothlorien and is now headed on a relaxing river journey down to Rauros Falls. I'm sure she'll have a splendid trip, especially since the Elves packed all those goodies (Hey, anyone seen the lembas? They were right over by the hobbits...).koralleen, with over 15 miles! Now that's a pleasant surprise!thirdbaselonebearednoriasilmaril, who has made it (finally!) to Minas Tirith, fought the battle of the Pelennor Fields, and is now off to the Black Gate, to see if she can delay the enemy for just a little while longer. Perhaps she can catch up with our average mileage, which is only 10 miles or so ahead of her. Good luck! We'll be waiting to hear how it turns out! (Oh, and silmaril, if you could update your Shields page, that would help me out. Thanks!)lonebear, with over 15 miles, even in all that snow. Congrats!tacnukesoul, I am told that your "Road Home: Isengard" shield is in the works. ETA: Well, that was quick. It's ready now!tacnukesoulsilmarilednoriatacnukesoul has reached Isengard on the long journey back to Hobbiton! Woo! I apologize for not having a shield ready for you, tacnukesoul; I'll get the graphics department on that right away. He's now continuing his journey to Rivendell, minus an Elf and a Dwarf. Congratulations, and huzzah!
wil_snailfoot with over 15 miles. I'll be curious to see how the Blizzard of '09 affects our totals this week.koralleenednoria 1600 miles!lonebearednoriatacnukesoul and lonebear, who both squeaked in over 15 miles (I think lonebear lost a bit of skin). Nice to see newly-fiancéed thirdbase back on the march!)edward_stanfordtacnukesoullonebear 3200 miles!ednoriatacnukesoul's in the 100 shield club! Congratulations! Your awesomeness is blinding.kugelblitz gets that reference, good on ya).lonebear, and our two new shields this week belong to:kugelblitztacnukesoul 2500 miles!ednoriasilmaril hurries, she can make it there next week with Aragorn, just like in the books. It's only 20 miles or so... go silmaril go!koralleen. Congrats, nice to see you up here in these dizzying heights!silmarillonebearsilmaril
