The BINGO Number for March 28 Is ...

[dawn_felagund]

Yes, I am again using the shameless ploy of withholding the BINGO number in order to make sure everyone sees an important announcement.

For the final two days of the event, two of our stampers/mods (Russandol and myself) will be traveling and, therefore, offline. We shuffled around responsibilities so that all B2MeM tasks will continue as usual, and you should have received an email if your stamper will be changing. However, I do want everyone to be aware, since the duties done by five people will be handled by three, and the time it takes to get things done may be a bit longer as a result. I'd kindly request that participants wait three days before querying about any missing stamps.

Furthermore, if you tend to email me or Russandol personally with questions or requests, please use the moderator@silmarillionwritersguild.org address instead, beginning on the 29th.

And now for today's number ... :)



Once you make a significant start on a prompt or prompts for today's number, please leave a comment on this post. Include your author name (if your LJ handle is different from the name listed for you on the B2MeM site) and the names of any cards for which you've completed prompts. If you've publicly posted a piece and would like to share a link so that others may enjoy your work, please feel free to do so.

If for some reason you cannot access LiveJournal or leave comments, please email the required information to moderator@silmarillionwritersguild.org.

Comments on this post will close in 48 hours, at roughly midnight GMT on March 29. You must leave a comment or email us before comments close in order to receive your stamps.

[naurring.livejournal.com]

Good travels to you two! Thanks for putting so much effort into this, you made this event something awsome and I've had so much fun with it!

On the bingo number...I can't believe this is going to give me a bingo on a card whose (which's? uh?) prompts I made. Hahahaha! :D

[dawn_felagund]

That's, what? Your fifth?? Goodness! :D

Congratulations! And, of course, you're most welcome for the event; it was really fun for me too. :)

Emotions Card - Hope
Horror Card - Deep Woods and Water
Cause of Death Card - Falling
Mirkwood the Great - Misunder Standing (What does it means?)
Beasty Card - Oliphaunt
Aspects of Aragorn Card - King

That's it.

[oloriel.livejournal.com]

"misunderstanding", not "misunder standing" - now a dictionary should help you; I can't think of an example off the top of my head :)

Noted!

[just-ann-now.livejournal.com]

Hooray! I've been looking forward particularly to this one! "Textures" and "Original Characters", please.

[dawn_felagund]

Got them noted! :)

Noted! (And the BFF prompt is today's? Sweeeeeeet!)

[heartofoshun.livejournal.com]

I want to know if I have the most claims filled without a Bingo! I think I am due an award as the biggest loser! Just kidding, but really! I think I have defied probability here. Maybe not. I promised I wouldn't whine when I started this month--but it just comes so naturally to me.

[keiliss.livejournal.com]

I find that so strange.

[keiliss.livejournal.com]

I took one look and knew exactly what I would do with them :)

Last Lines - I'll come with you.
Textures - pebbled
Coastly and Beachy - weaving sail, weaving net
Song Lyrics - And the songs that I have sung echo in the distance like the sound of a windmill goin' round.

[dawn_felagund]

Got them noted! :)

Dawn, once again I am forced to flounce into the thread singing thanks to your specified music.

Don't fear the eyes of the Darrrrk Lorrrd
Morgoth, I cried, All hope is gone but I swear revenge
Hear myyy oaathhh
I will take part in your damned fate

(On an unrelated note) Safe travels!

[dawn_felagund]

It probably says something about me that I was not embarrassed by my music this time but was more like, "THIS IS SO FLIPPIN' COOL!!!!!1!" I mean, it shuffled on my iPod about five seconds before posting. It was like Feanor was giving one last little push to the B2MeM participants to finish the month!

[spiced-wine.livejournal.com]

[rhapsody11.livejournal.com]

w00t! Maglor & Daeron not liking each other at all and the Battle of Hastings :) Yes, I am so going to write that!

*ahem*

Let me make a proper claim of stamps.

Lyra, my dear stamper can you please stamp the following:

Maglor in history 1 G59: The Battle of Hastings and Silmarillion fanon card G59: Daeron + Maglor = BFF

[oloriel.livejournal.com]

Dear Rhapsody, of course I can! *stampetystamp*

[oloriel.livejournal.com]

No new claims (yet), but I just noticed that all my claims for N38 from this comment (http://b2mem.livejournal.com/128764.html?thread=1801980#t1801980) haven't been stamped yet. No stress, just didn't want it to get lost! (Since I obviously don't check my cards regularly...) Including a BINGO on Women of Arda, yay!
I completely forgot that I'm one of "your" participants, Dawn, so I didn't reply to your e-mail... but of course I can wait for my stamps until you're back. Sorry for the hassle!

Travel safely, all of you!

[dawn_felagund]

Thank you, Lyra! :) I'm jotting down the missing stamps now. Thanks for tracking them down and letting me know! :)

[hhimring]

Hello Rhapsody,

I've written a cinquain on Morwen's death and posted it to the B2MeM community.

Best wishes,
Himring

P.S. Very glad to hear that your daughter is better!

[rhapsody11.livejournal.com]

Yeah, her appetite is back as well and with spring here I hope that all these nasty colds and other bugs stay away for a looong time!

*passes on a smooch from her*
