Thirdly and finally, I wish to make an ANNOUNCEMENT. I regret to announce that - though, as I said, eleventy-one years is far to short a time to spend among you - this is the END.

ICE has lost the license to all Middle-Earth products. The Tolkien Estate is claiming all back-stock of those products from ICE. I don't know all of what this will mean. I do know: ICE can no longer support MECCG. ICE won't run a World Championship this year. Lord of The Ring Expandable card game is canned. There will no longer be an official NetRep.

Ha, nice find. Would have been better if they had worked a "this is the end" reference into their announcement, though. Serious missed opportunity there.

Actually, in Hobbiton and Bywater every day in the year was somebody's birthday, so that ever hobbit in those parts had a fair chance of at least one present at least once a week. But they never got tired of them.
