4. How fluent do you consider yourself on general Tolkien knowledge? My dad reads it to me every year and so I think I know it pretty good, although it might be scary to enter a contest about it with someone really super knowledgable who does nothing but read it ALL DAY lol!
5. Why do you think that you would be a good forum moderator here? Well it looks really fun and it'd just be really cool!

This is just stupid.
Why does the prospect of moderator-hood have to depend on a quiz of such obscure details? Not to mention how unfair it is... I mean, you miss too many early questions in a section and you're doomed...
Moderator-hood should be based on heart and maturity and ability to lead and keep other members in line, not on such useless trivia like this.
I am so glad I am no longer a full moderator.

Gremlin King? Can't say I've heard of him. Although, I hardly think a quiz is something worth declaring war over. Are quizzes considered an insult on his planet? If so, you should tell him that this planet's culture is much different. And this is a peaceful site.

Moderator Note:
We want to thank you all for participating in our extended April Fools event this year! As some (or all) may have figured out, we started April Fools on April 1st New Zealand time and have kept it running through the U.S. day as well.
Night is upon us and all good things must come to an end. HobbitWeb must give way to Narnia Web. At 9 p.m. Mountain in the U.S. (10 p.m. central, 11 p.m. eastern, 8 p.m. west coast) we are asking that all posting with duplicate accounts cease and we will begin cleaning up any Hobbit Web related threads.
Thank you and we all look forward to next year!
Wait a minute! I didn't get my application in!
