                                      The creators of The One Ring Role-Playing Game (TOR), have created the first licensed D&D-based Middle-earth RPG, "Adventures in Middle-earth". Here is a preview from a decades-long Tolkien-based gamer. While I received the PDFs many months ago, I finally received the hard copies of the d20 Tolkien RPG System based on The One Ring (TOR) by Cubicle 7: "Adventures in Middle-earth Players guide" for 5th Edition Dungeons & Dragons. Definitely plan for this to be at Tolkien Moot XIII!

                                      After the sudden closure of the collocation facility where our servers were hosted, we have been slowly trying to get everything back online. The email server hosting merp@merp.com is not yet back up and running, but we are working on it.

                                      After years of the Plone developers not resolving the problem with registration spam that I was reporting, one of the developers finally helped me directly, and after several stop-gap attempts, they acknowledged the problem and have finally fixed it. So at long last, the Middle-earth Role-Playing community can try to come back to life. REGISTER now!
