6 Palantirs lost or unusable by King Elessar

FINAL RECAP, and thanks to all the players! We reached 77 digits of pi, and could (I suspect) go on a lot longer. But as we know, although the expansion of pi is an infinite series of digits, Tolkien and his works are finite...wait! I MEAN, it's not Pi Day any more.

I think this is the geekiest thread I've seen on TORN, [In reply to] Can't Post

and that's really saying something! Bless your mad genius, squire. Smile

Celebrimbor: "Pretty rings..."
Dwarves: "Pretty rings..."
Men: "Pretty rings..."
Sauron: "Mine's better."

"Ah, how ironic, the addictive qualities of Sauron’s master weapon led to its own destruction. Which just goes to show, kids - if you want two small and noble souls to succeed on a mission of dire importance... send an evil-minded beggar with them too." - Gandalf's Diaries, final par, by Ufthak.
