VardaValar1: We have a new Tolkien-only member
VardaValar1: Emanuele "Theoden" Scalzo-(TV)
VardaValar1: He is from Italy and sent in an article in both Italian
and English.
VardaValar1: He found a friend to translate it, then I smoothed that
out a bit, so you should be able to enjoy it!
VardaValar1: Any other membership news?

VardaValar1: Web
News:
VardaValar1: The aforementioned article is "Sharp Glance", about
Maeglin using the translation of Maeglin's name.

VardaValar1: More Tolkien site news:
VardaValar1: The Objects Page has been re-done, hopefully easier to

VardaValar1: The Phial of Galadriel
VardaValar1: http://valarguild.org/varda/Tolkien/encyc/articles/p/phialV.htm
VardaValar1: Both inspired by an email discussion with artist Turgon-(V)
VardaValar1: Turgon-(V) added new art for use in the Encyclopedia, to
his Cave
VardaValar1: He has 6 new ones.
VardaValar1: They are listed at the bottom of his Cave page so you can
see the latest updates.
FinduilasV: Hopefully I can add mine next week
VardaValar1: http://www.valar.game-host.org/varda/gallery/TurgonV/caveTurgonV.htm
VardaValar1: That would be fantastic, Finduilas!
VardaValar1: We'd love to see them.
VardaValar1: It : )
VardaValar1: We use these to help illustrate the Tolkien Encyclopedia
VardaValar1: Some are used to illustrate the fun sections also, such as
stories and poetry.
VardaValar1: The Stories section has new goodies also.
VardaValar1: Editing is complete on "Betrayal" by Cassia-(TV) and
Siobhan-(TV)

VardaValar1: Elwing-(V) is in there and has one shot labeled
VardaValar1: I'm in there and unlabeled, in Scot garb and with my hair
tied so you can't really tell it is past waist length. ; )
VardaValar1: Ok, anyone else with web news from their sites?
VardaValar1: For Menelvagor, if he ever shows up, Alatar has been
spotted on Ventrilo and might be reached that way for website help.
VardaValar1: No other news? All asleep from the sound of my voice?
FinduilasV: no trying to find you :-)
VardaValar1: hah! That could take a long while. 7 pages of thumbnails.
: )
VardaValar1: I'm no spring chicken and not that eager to help you find
my pic. : )
FinduilasV: /me chuckles

VardaValar1: That's the ticket. Distract them!
VardaValar1: Did anyone play anything besides WoW and allowed to talk
about it? : )

to talk.

and a half, Arwen?
Arwen V1: I've never done a raid before =o It might be interesting.
VardaValar1: Eonwe, think you might be available?
Eonwe Valar: Afriad not.

VardaValar1: WoW
Europe have a report? Finduilas?
ArPharazonV: well, I've had a busy week, and not that much time to do
anything outside our normal raids
ArPharazonV: I talked to Finduilas in whispers for a bit
FinduilasV: Not really, since I only came back yesterday, I just
levelled my druid and my Pali , and showed my face on Lightbringer
VardaValar1: Which server were you two on together?
FinduilasV: Argent Dawn
VardaValar1: Seen the ent, Fladrif, this week?
VardaValar1: Valandil?
ArPharazonV: seen them, didn't talk to them much though... which is too
bad
FinduilasV: He has shown online in the chosen ones, but havent seen him
yet
FinduilasV: Flad that is
VardaValar1: okies, sounds as if homework and raids are keeping the
Euro folk pretty busy, and work. : )
ArPharazonV: that, and I'm starting to dance again... had our first
lesson again this week
ArPharazonV: our raidgroup went through some troubles, moral was a bit
low since we've been trying to kill Patchwerk for weeks...
VardaValar1: Tough getting back into the dancing?
ArPharazonV: and our Main Tank left for a while, and it's still not
sure if he'll be back for real
VardaValar1: Becoming a long-term goal, is he?
VardaValar1: ouch!
ArPharazonV: as for the dancing... yeah, it's a bit hard since I
haven't done some dances for a while, and hard to remember the steps :-)
ArPharazonV: but we should be fine in a few weeks
VardaValar1: Is WoW Euro's report done?
FinduilasV: aye done
ArPharazonV: we have some members in our raidgroup in the WoW BC beta
ArPharazonV: it's looking good so far :-)
ArPharazonV: BC is Burning Crusade, the expansion
VardaValar1: Good to hear!
VardaValar1: Heard it was moved back to January?
ArPharazonV: yes
ArPharazonV: but they'll be releasing a content patch before that to keep us
busy ;-)
ArPharazonV: including talents and honor system
ArPharazonV: I've already set up my talent spec for when the patch
comes, can't wait to try some stuff out
ArPharazonV: but yeah, that's it for this week
VardaValar1: Thanks folks : )
VardaValar1: WoW
Lothar had our usual get-together for Friday
VardaValar1: Eonwe was past his neck in programming homework and
couldn't come
VardaValar1: so we did a different type of run this time.
VardaValar1: As we started gathering, Merryv and Fainan (Varda) played
in Searing Gorge picking up the Key to the Searing Gorge for Fainan and
dispensing "Dwarven Justice" for the dwarf hiding in the outhouse.
VardaValar1: Then we gathered together to help Evenstarr with the
Maraudon instance quests, filling in a few not credited for others, and
introducing Elwingv to Maraudon.
VardaValar1: Elwingv, Evenstarr, Fainan, Merryv, and Sauronv started in
Orange Maraudon.
VardaValar1: We filled the vial in the orange lake, without staining
our armor or hair.
VardaValar1: We did the plants, Twisted Evil, collected both halves of
the Scepter of Celebras,
VardaValar1: killed Corrupted Celebras, and went to the ghost of
Celebras who put the staff together for us.
VardaValar1: While at it, we did most of the Khan quest, but
accidentally killed a Khan while two members were dying and releasing.
VardaValar1: We intend to go back and see to the Khans again another
time.
VardaValar1: Gimli dropped in about 1am, a bit late for the run, and
chatted with us a bit.
VardaValar1: Valar members are usually good about being able to chat
and fight at the same time. Yay us!
VardaValar1: That's it for the Lothar report.
VardaValar1: Uldaman server
has been a bit neglected by me.
VardaValar1: Arwen, you've been on Uldaman lately?
Eonwe Valar: Pardon, mention of Uldaman reminded me that Merry says hi
:}
Arwen V1: no, I've been playing with friends on Alleria recently, when
not on Lothar
VardaValar1: okies, Arwen. Thanks
Arwen V1: np =)
VardaValar1: Merry is on Uldaman quite a bit, needs us to show up : )
VardaValar1: once in a while anyway : )
VardaValar1: Ancalagon also plays there a lot
VardaValar1: He likes it better than Alliance
Haleth V has entered the room.
VardaValar1: Haleth, hi!
Haleth V: Aiya Varda! =)
Haleth V: Sorry for being late.
VardaValar1: No worries. You beat all the people who didn't come at
all. ;-)
Haleth V: ;P
ArPharazonV: Aiya Haleth!
VardaValar1: Haleth, did you have any news for Membership, Web, or
Gaming that you would like to catch us up on?
Haleth V: Aiya Phar
Gamatzgamatz has left the room.
Haleth V: Nope, not yet, I'm afraid
Haleth V: one moment, dogs are misbehaving again.
VardaValar1: okie dokie
Haleth V: Back.
Haleth V: Is the Tolkien chat still going on? Or are we at the
after-meeting?
VardaValar1: We are just coming to the Tolkien chat
Eonwe Valar: Still in the meeting part :}
Haleth V: =)
VardaValar1: Finishing gaming
Haleth V: Well, good to know I made that part then. =)
VardaValar1: Did you game any this last week?
VardaValar1: Nice timing : )
Haleth V: A little bit on Warcraft III
Haleth V: Mostly on US West though - a friend of mine just got the
game, so...
VardaValar1: Go ahead, Haleth
VardaValar1: The guild defaults gaming to East by the way
VardaValar1: and uses Valar as the friend channel.
FinduilasV: Which i managed to change as my gateway
Haleth V: I'll try and find some time on US East this week =)
FinduilasV: the log in seems to be a bit slower though
VardaValar1: Maybe your friend would like to try some time on East
also? : )
VardaValar1: Eonwe has a bit of Gaming news. Go ahead.
Eonwe Valar: Thanks.
Eonwe Valar: Just thought everyone might be interested to know
Blizzard's created their own Warcraft Encyclopedia, and it's
probably about time :}
VardaValar1: Cool : )
Eonwe Valar: Right now stuff about Elves, the Emerald Dream, mortals,
immortals, etc are in there.
ArPharazonV: they plan to update it several times a year
ArPharazonV: so that should be some massive updates :-)
Haleth V: =)
FinduilasV: sounds great :-)
VardaValar1: Much easier to update a little at a time.
Glorfindel VG has entered the room.
VardaValar1: Aiya Glorfindel!
Glorfindel VG: Hello!
Haleth V: Aiya =)
VardaValar1: One more reminder since we've had several enter.
Eonwe Valar: Hopefully they'll read their own lore now before writing
up more :}
VardaValar1: Watch your email for Lord of the Rings Online beta
invitations.
VardaValar1: Aye, Eonwe! Might help Blizzard more than us to have that
Encyclopedia!
VardaValar1: Ok, on to
top
VardaValar1: Tolkien!
Haleth V: =)
VardaValar1: Finduilas has been researching quite a bit lately and I'd
like to bug her to tell some of her impressions. : ) She's learning
about her character and the way the book versions operate.
VardaValar1: Go ahead, Finduilas. : )
FinduilasV: Well, as you know, dear friends
FinduilasV: Finduilas was the daughter of Orodreth of Nargothrond
FinduilasV: a niece of Finarfin
FinduilasV: at least in the Silmarillion
FinduilasV: She was tragically torn between her lfeelings for both
Gwindor, and Turin
FinduilasV: who lived in NaRGOTHrond under a different name at the time
FinduilasV: Gwindor was her lover of old, from before the Dagor
Bragollach but he was caught
FinduilasV: and held prisoner for a long time
FinduilasV: When he managed to escape finally, he helped Turin to find
the way to Nargothrond
FinduilasV: and she recognized her old lover
Haleth V has left the room.
FinduilasV: spoke for him , when mistrust was coming up
Haleth V has entered the room.
FinduilasV: but her heart went to Turin ..
Haleth V: Sorry about that, internet periodically breaks down =/
FinduilasV: no worries, internet does that at times haleth L)
FinduilasV: She knew it was hopeless, she knew it was not right
FinduilasV: but on the other hand she knew that *the only way to Turin
leads via pity*
FinduilasV: and she had preknowledge there was some greater fate
involved, som mishap she wanted to avoid
FinduilasV: to come to pass
FinduilasV: but alas ..
FinduilasV: to no avail
FinduilasV: That is the version, that I read in the lost tale
FinduilasV: As you know the Dragon , Glaurung attacked Nargothrond and
both men went with Orodreth to fight him
FinduilasV: Turin was held in the dragon spell for long long time ,
bewitched and b elied
FinduilasV: much too late he returned to Nargothrond via Doriath and
Brethil ..
FinduilasV: He heard from other escapees the brutal and sad truth, that
Finduilas was taken prisoner 0 Turin had seen and heard her
FinduilasV: but could not rescue her
FinduilasV: Some refugees, who tired to free the prisoners while Turin
himself went to look for his sister and Mother
VardaValar1: There was a minor prophecy that Turin must rescue
Finduilas or else bad things.
FinduilasV: right
FinduilasV: /me nods
FinduilasV: she was to be taken to Angband with the other woman and
girls
FinduilasV: but the orcs who took them were assaulted and killed, and
they killed all their prisoners before
FinduilasV: the men buried her beside the Teilin stairs
FinduilasV: Haudh en Elleth - the tomb of the Even maid it was called
FinduilasV: Strangely enogh Turin came there always after when he
wanted to be alone or wanted some thought over a matter
FinduilasV: and Turin protected her tomb fiercely
FinduilasV: so orcs never dared to come near
FinduilasV: That is how far the narration goes and what i do remember
about her
VardaValar1: Very well told!
FinduilasV: the middle bit about gwindor and turin in details only
appears in a fragment in the lost tales
FinduilasV: /me smiles
VardaValar1: So if you have a significant other, he might come in as
Gwindor or Turin. : )
VardaValar1: Sorry. : )
FinduilasV: *grin*
FinduilasV: that let him know, hehe, unfortunately he shows no interest
in tolkien in details
VardaValar1: Enough for entry maybe?
FinduilasV: I can ask him
VardaValar1: Does anyone have anything they would like to add?
FinduilasV: but doubt it
VardaValar1: Although that was a pretty complete telling.
VardaValar1: Folks, I'm going to call it
top
VardaValar1: After-meeting!
VardaValar1: Free chat or choose to get together for gaming

Menelvagor Valar: Okidee :)
Menelvagor Valar: Yesterday me and some of my guild got together for a
Blizz beta screenshot contest.
Menelvagor Valar: or rather, just a screenie contest for beta keys :-P
Menelvagor Valar: Anyways, the contest's aim was to have a scene from
Pirates of the Carribean re-enacted.
Menelvagor Valar: The scene to be screenied was the one where 2 ships
were close together at sea and the "undead" pirates fighting Jack
Sparrow and his pirates.
Menelvagor Valar: So my guildies all ate Devias Fish to get the Pirate
Costume, a hunter brought his pet gorilla.
Menelvagor Valar: and I got to play the part of ... Catherine I think
it was (female mage)
Menelvagor Valar: The screenie was taken on the 2 boats in the Pirate's
Compound in Tanaris, and we aggrod most of the 2 boats to get enough
pirates :)
Star of Phaet: well, I'm off, folks. past my bed-time
Star of Phaet: Namarie :-)
Menelvagor Valar: Unfortunately, I couldnt stay the whole time, as I
had other plans, but I did get in 1 screenie :)
