I didn't have a third

[FM]

I liked #4. Only. Not sure I "got" the other ones, or just found them plain boring/unflavorful.

[sickofpalantirs]

I like #4 and #1

[FM]

I think it's pretty settled #4 wins. Should we move over to the next one?

[macheteman]

sorry. on holiday.

#4: bajillion doom
#2: 5 stormcrow
#1: 3 azogsbane
#5: 3 m64

next challenge: i think i'd lake a card based off the companie's encounter with the wolves outside the misty mountains. it can be fellowship or shadow, and don't forget there were several different players in that scenario, not just wolves.

[macheteman]

get your submissions in by saturday. 2 already in. thanks guys!

[macheteman]

got a request to extend the deadline; i want as many people as possible to be able to participate, so i will be extending the deadline to next tuesday.

[macheteman]

I have several DC's in, but if you haven't PMed me yet, don't forget that the deadline is tuesday. we wouldn't want you to miss out, so send me your cards!

For the next contest, create a shadow card based on the mirkwood spiders.

Each time you transfer this to a companion, except a wizard, exert bearer twice. Exert bearer and add two threats to cancel a skirmish involving bearer.

"'Up the trees quick!' cried Gandalf."
