Just to keep the ball rolling here.... How are we going to divide up the teams? Is it going to be something that people don't really control, as in they answer a question (like the pet one) and their answer determines their team? Because we need to get this set up so that we can get the hype up and people to answer and such.

Everyone's already come up with so many brilliant ideas! About sorting people into groups, I think that the questionnaire idea is a good one. But what happens if we end up with too many people in one group? That's probably my only reservation. Then would we sort people randomly or? Food for thought If we're to have a ball, can we just have on big one at the end or something? And a treasure hunt idea sounds good, in which people can stack up more points for their teams on top of the rest of the events. And then there can be like... a Race Cup (Haha. Forgive the Harry Potter reference) 8D The idea of non-contest points also sound wonderful. Im not a graphic-maker, and I'll have exams in June, so I know that personally, unless its on a non-contest basis, I wont be able to participate. I'll try and come up with a few ideas for this though...

Then would we sort people randomly or? I thought of a question today which I think would get a good distribution and still tie in to LotR. You obviously wouldn't put the "Team --" in the question. ie Of these, which is your favorite lesser-known character? Gothmog (Team Mordor) Fatty Bolger (Team Shire) Tom Bombadil (Team Gondor) Gildor (Team Lorien) Goldberry (Team Moria) And, of course, we could change out the people if you guys have other input. But I think we would get a good spread with this. Also, we need the team leaders. I was thinking that each team leader could set up a thread for their team in the Misc Randomness thread (to keep track of points, talk, whatnot). If the leaders set it up, they can edit it whenever they want. Then, after we do the question and we divide everyone up, the leaders could PM their team or something to let them know. It'd be great if we could get the question set as soon as possible so that we can get everyone going by the start. For official dates, how does June 19-July 20 sound?

I was wondering.....maybe if the answer to the question was not related to the group they could be put in (I know some of yours aren't Nurr), then that would be the best way to make sure that people don't cotton on to which answer means X group. Maybe a more controversial question or one that has lots of people supporting it for each would be best, so there will never be people going for the same all the time. Favourite couples (friendships) would be perfect as you could also add couples that didn't exist and hopefully there would be a nice number of people in each. coughmoriacoughmoriacoughcough

Yeah, that would probably be good. I like the friendships/couples idea, since it broadens it out more. So, some ideas: Frodo & Sam Merry & Pippin Legolas & Gimli Aragorn/Arwen Aragorn/Eowyn ..more? I feel bad, Siara, but I already asked Panneth for the Shire. Perhaps you'd like to take one of the others? Or maybe since you know what's going on you'll rig yourself to be in the Shire? Team leaders as it stands right now: Gondor - Panneth Moria - JF Shire - Nurr Mordor - Lorien - How are the dates for everyone?

@Freya: I know there's no way we can get everyone the whole time, sadly. Would you have internet on the 18th? Because we could start that Friday, and that way you would know the beginning and could jump back in when you got back. Team leaders as it stands right now: Gondor - Panneth Moria - JF Shire - Nurr Mordor - Aramel Lorien -

yeah. I can try to be on during the 18th.

Frodo & Sam Merry & Pippin Legolas & Gimli Legolas & Aragorn Bilbo & Gandalf Gimli/Galadriel Sam/Rosie Aragorn/Arwen Aragorn/Eowyn Eowyn/Faramir And if we have 10 options, we can be extra sneaky and each group can have 2 answers. So hopefully each group could get one of the popluar answers and another one as well.
