What did I just tell you! There is no chapter 16, so beat it. Oh unless
you were kind enough to write some type of review. In which case please
feel free to read the next part we lovingly call: A whole bunch of kissing
up. There's so much praise we had to reorder half way through.
RAM: Well I hope you eventually managed to find my MST, wherever
you have gotten too. I do not know how much I have
been able to
stop a Mary Sue (My odd sense of humor tends to
only work on
those who are willing to think about it at least
for a moment. Sadly,
I suck horribly at shock value. There's just no
hope for me). On
another note, it does in fact appear as though that
certain fic I did
MST has vanished from the site, and I feel a little
bad about it.
Maybe it's undergoing a reconstruction. All I ask
is please, no
froth-barrier. That's just disturbing.
Mbradford: I'm glad you enjoyed yourself, at least I hope the tears
aren't from my habit of routinely missing typos
during that long
editing debacle. I have to admit, I really really
came to despise my
main Mary Sue (Mar) as this story went on. For a
few scenes I
almost forgot to even include her. (This also happened
with Legolas
in one scene, good luck figuring out which one).
If I could
recommend a few other good parodies I've come across:
"From
MarySue to MarySue, The Legolas story", "Charisma
Goes Abroad,"
"Me, You and a Hobbit Named Sue," "Mary Sue Parody
Parody"
and "Concerning Mary Sues and Other Essays" among
a few others.
Fuzzy Hobbit: Thanks for the review and all and I hate to be the one
to
tell you this, but it actually is supposed to be
funny. So laugh, laugh
your head off. Even if it's at the fact that I can't
do humor, as long
as you're laughing I got my job done.
Laura: Thank you for the more more more. I cannot help but be
reminded of a certain show produced in the Twin
Cities area that
involved a few robots and bad movies and one of
their earliest praise
was exactly that. Frankly I hope Legolas isn't as
dumb as I make
him otherwise I wouldn't have trusted him with a
bow and quiver
full of arrows.
Madmartigan: I hope you enjoyed my other MSTs although I must
admit I have been working on them for, hang on,
carry the one,
replace that button, oh since about 1999, so if
some of the early ones
seem a little bit, well, stupid, please forgive
me. The fact that some of
my latest ones are stupid are completely my fault
though. So feel free
to blame me for those.
Emerald Griffin: I haave to aadmit it waas difficult not to go baack
to try
aand fix some of my earlier chaapters. But what's
interesting is that I
wanted to show how some writers will have an almost
script format in
nothing but dialogue and I kept that feel for the
first few chapters.
Then I really got tired of it and had to stop. Little
warning if you ever
plan on writing a parody that is stink-o-rama, do
it in short bursts with
plenty of water and rest between activities. And
don't go writing until
thirty minutes after you've eaten.
Obelia medusa: Thank you for helping in getting my review count through
the roof (Well it is through the roof for me). It
is nice to have some one
tell me what few things I did right in each chapter
so I know what to leave
during the great demolition. I'm not so good at
that, I guess I just like to
take the whole story in and the digest it. Or maybe
I read too many essays
by Bacon. (Whatever you do do not take 'Of Studies"
literally. I have yet
to find a sauce that can make digesting any book
easy.) I had in fact
completely forgotten that Sev Trek and Fraud of
the Ring called everyone's
favorite Wizard of Many Colours Sourman. That name
for me actually was
born of a misspelling. Yeah I accidentally typed
Saruman and then I thought
it'd be funny if I just misspelled his name throughout
his chapter. In the first
chapter, I spelled it right. Or it is a reference,
whatever. Now I just have to go
and finish reading your epic masterpiece assuming
I can avoid having to help
rain those little doggies. People no matter how
cute they look, having three
black labs is just asking for trouble.
elfiegurlofleggy858: Wow that's a lot of X's and O's. What about Q,
I always
feel that poor letter doesn't get enough use. Sorry,
was getting side tracked
there. I'm also sorry Im a realy bad writer I will
try better in the future. Oh
who am I kidding, no I won't. Also in the end I
chose Frodo to be the
star/straight man because it just made the most
sense. FOTR is all about that
little hobbit and he is the main focus of everyone's
attention so it would be
best if he reacted to everyone else going insane
instead of him being insane.
But I'll still get on that not being able to write
thing.
Tindomiel: I'm really glad you enjoyed this so much you think God himself
would find it hilarious. Although I'm sure He's
got much more important
things to do. After all, He can't go back to His
reading until He's finished
His chores and Order of the Phoenix just hit stores
in heaven.
Kate the Great: I don't know why I should even talk to you. I'll just
see you l
ater at that stupid county fair. Oh wait that's
right we're on. In defense of the
actual person who wants to go on and become a writer
she only helped me
with one chapter, and I did ignore quite a few of
her helpful comments (See
lazy). So she is in no way responsible for this
gurgling pile of drudge. I'm
sure she can come up with her own gurgling pile
of drudge all on her own.
Merigold: Thanks, have a cookie. (But not just like my mom used
to make.
She's a big fan of having the cookies catch on fire)
For a while I actually
thought about continuing and mocking the Two Towers
and Return of the
King. Then I realized that one I am still too lazy
and two I had screwed up
the timeline too much. Frodo was originally going
to head off into Mordor
not with Sam but with Merry and Pippin, and with
my version of Merry and
Pippin they would have lasted about of two and a
half minutes. Plus my
straight man, Frodo, was leaving a lot of the action
behind. I suppose, as I
never really gave Aragorn any character (another
lazy little move on my part),
he could have suddenly become a second straight
man, but I'm fairly sure
those two cousins would have lost the ring somehow.
Oh well, there's
always next summer.
Tinania Lindaleriel: I'm glad you can follow directions. I do hope that
if and
when you do actually read this stupid thing it doesn't
turn your brain to
mush. I've been getting that a lot. Well I'm out
of words, but given the
choice would you choose P or Q?
Well that's really it and now I think I'd best be putting my brain to
better use and need to be weeding the garden. Have fun reading! Toodles.
