Post Poll Suggestions

The staff of the site really sucks at coming up with new poll suggestions for the front page. So...I'm opening it up to anyone who might have any ideas. Got a good idea for the poll on the front page? Please list it here, along with 4-6 possible answers/choices. If we like it, we may use it as the next poll, and we'll give you 3 user points.

Those are exactly the kind of thing we're looking for. We need as many as possible, and every week, I'll poke through and pick out the one I like the best, and change the poll.

A few choice words from Galadreil.
Bilbo "finishing his book"
A few ships sailing into the sunset with the remainder of the fellowship on board
Legolas and Gimli sailing down the Anduin
Sam and Rosie settling down

Or is that too spoilery?

- cry at the end because its all over
- squeal whenever your favourite character comes on
- hide at the scary bits
- not watch it, you're too busy with boyfriend/girlfriend
- wonder what you're doing sitting there, and walk out

Edit: ok another poll, ok me again! as its me, i've come up with a food one! its a bit weird, but nonetheless still a poll right?

Here's one to use before TTT comes out (which is soon)

How are you going to buy The Two Towers when it comes out?
- I already pre-ordered it
- I'm going to buy it from a store at 12:00 a.m. Aug. 26
- I'm going to buy it from a store a few days after it comes out
- I'm going to wait for the Extended Edition
- I might get around to buying it, but I might not
- I'm not going to buy it, but I'll probably rent it a few times
- It wasn't good, I'm not going to buy it

It has 7 choices, I hope thats ok

Okay here's one I just thought of....

What Middle Earth creature would you want as a pet?

1. An Oliphuant, they handle back roads very well.
2. An Eagle, so I could fly.
3. A Dragon, they're very good at finding treasure.
4. A Troll, I like my pets big and dumb.
5.Gollum, he's so cute!

I thought of this awhile ago, I posted a thread in The Prancing Pony for ideas so here are what the members of CoE have come up with.

A name for LOTR fans?

1.Ringy, or Ringers
2.Tolkienite, or Tolkienian
3.Ringnut
4.Lordies
5.Aphadrim,( followers in Sindarin)
6.Lotrers
7.Questans, or Questers

These are only a few of the many suggestions, but they seem to be the ones getting the best response.
