Pepin, well spoken!! You should be renamed into: Pepin, Well-spoken Gentlehobbit...I will try to give you as much feedback as possible!!

For a day or two, at least, that's what he shall be. Hey, the people love you, Pepin. Enjoy your (likely temporary) title.

[Smeagollum]

Haha how many people do you think have an actual Horn deck!?

Does the Jord come to the City of (red) lights... (there is only one real city of light and that's Paris, but we still have the red lights, not that I'm proud of that....)?

   Thanks folks!

   More than titles what i really apreciate is the respect that most people here in TLHH show for the members (and the sense of humor of course). So if i´m any kind of gentle-hobbit much of that is because of the way people here treat each other. I´m quit sure that many other people would deserve to be mentioned by a variety of qualities 

   But i guess this title stuff is a nice way of showing peoples peculiarities...maybe "Fool of a Took" fit´s me well too...hehehe

That's why Kralik and I were determined not to let the community die with Cobra Cards.

I could always change it to that....

[DáinIronfoot]

By the by, I went ahead and added the tourney to the calendar.

[Smeagollum]

Thx, DainIronfoot, King of Dwarves!

Hmm, we really need to quit this suck-up diet we're on apparently....

[Olorin]

@each "flying" dutch man... ;-)

Which is the best way to get from the Airport of Rotterdam to Amsterdam (central city, etc.)? Train?
any idea?

Which is a good choice to stay over night in Amsterdam (youth hostel, etc.) - it should be cheap but also full fill some standards; for instance a roof without lacks... so that the rooms stay dry... etc. 

Help please...

[Gil-Estel]

Well, I'm not sure, but I did some checkwork on this subject. It is from Rotterdam Airport to Rotterdam Central Station a 20 minute busdrive, and from Rotterdam Central to Amsterdam Central a little more than an hour trainride. That last part will cost you something like 14 euro's. I think there are others that know it better.....

Edit #1

But if you want me to, I will look into it more thoroughly....

Edit #2

http://www.bobsyouthhostel.nl/ It is in the centre, costs you 18 euro's and breakfast is included

[Smeagollum]

Well from Rotterdam to amsterdam central you'll need the train and that will take about 1 hour:

09:41 Rotterdam Centraal 8 Amsterdam Centraal Sneltrein (NS) 
09:46 Schiedam Centrum   
09:54 Delft   
10:02 Den Haag HS   
10:05 Den Haag Laan v NOI   
10:14 Leiden Centraal   
10:28 Heemstede-Aerdenhout   
10:34 Haarlem   
10:45 Amsterdam Sloterdijk   
10:52 Amsterdam Centraal 1

cost € 24,30 return and 13,60 for a one-way!

You can get out at Amsterdam Sloterdijk and take tram 12 to Elizabeth wolfstraat or you can go from Amsterdam Centraal with tram 13 to Elizabeth wolfstraat. The tram will cost you about 1,80 one-way.

So It might be cheaper to fly to Schiphol?

You can get more info about trains in the Netherlands on http://www.ns.nl
Okay it's in Dutch, but I think it's easy to understand.

That 24 euro's is for a one-day visa versa ticket...14 is a 1 way ticket

[Smeagollum]

I just see I'm an Uruk-Hai... I don't wannabee one... I wannabee Gollum....

[Smeagollum]

Is jord comming or is he not? Are the french, the belgiums,Germans, Italians, Polish or other nationalities comming? The Englisch, the Scoth.. actually the 2-klaveren does allready have scotch, but some people can't get enough of that

@Smeagollum: You can take a Gollum picture as Avatar 

  Holland rocks!

Do you have already all your decks? May I play Reflection cards in movie block?

@about foreign players: I will post this eve what people replyed to me.

Some Italians already told me, that they can not come...

[Smeagollum]

Hi Elrohir,

I will await your post about other people.

About your 2nd question I unfortunally have to say nay. Me and my friends definite want to have 2 rounds with playing filmblock. And reflections was never part of the filmblock (according to us and decipher).

I have many decks. I have to make for other people as well. So i'm still making and testing decks as it is an evertaking in progress being activity Actually that's the biggest fun with lotr: building decks: I've about 20 (12 physical and 8 extra on paper).

At the moment I'm busy with a very odd deck, which might or not might work... it depends how fast it is I think... but I'll keep it a secret of what kind of deck it will be, but yes gollum will be into it, but's not the key-minion.. he's in for extra fun!! Smeagol might be in as well, maybe as only companion, but probably not... and I wll not play the deck myslef. I think Mo or Menno will get this deck... If they win I actually get the prizesupport as I pay for them and they'll play with my decks:)
