I... have to respectfully disagree on both counts.

(Also, it's kind of funny the way the phrasing makes it out so that you're turning something into a human... except not a human but an elf instead.)

Am I hurting? Am I sad? Should I stay or should I go?

I've forgotten how to tell. Did I ever even know?

I'm not big on pointy ears unless they're fluffy and soft to the touch.

Insert something witty that makes me better than all of you, here.

I have to agree with the majority that Elves are pretty cool.

#369555 Sereg Fri, 24th May '13 10:57:06 AM from South Africa

On a woman I'd prefer hairless to fluffy ears because ... I don't want a hairball.

EDIT: I've read The Silmarillion four times. I love elves (as incredibly stupid as they tended to be in that book).

I'm so due for a cheese baton to the eye, but I'm not that keen on elves. (Then again, playing Dwarf Fortress amplified that.)

Garrotxa is a fine ammunition, according to Mythbusters!

I wasn't keen on elves from even before DF. Must've been some RPG I don't remember otherwise.

Oh, the thread? Don't worry, it's just dead.

#369559 Sereg Fri, 24th May '13 11:00:37 AM from South Africa

Hey, Dwarves are cool as well. The story of their creation drove me to tears with how beautiful it was. (I really like The Silmarillion.)

what's the difference between elves and goblins?

All things are lawful for me, but all things are not expedient: all things are lawful for me, but all things edify not.

Goblins aren't hated for having so many tribal shenanigans.

Depends on the verse. In th Tolkienverse ... very little. Goblins actually are elves who have been tortured and corrupted by Morgoth (and their descendents).

Everyone loves sexy elves.

It's true!

But how is that any less weird than redrawing magical talking ponies who looked like they stepped out of an acid trip into humans that look like they've stepped out of an acid trip?

You might as well scrap any attempt at rationality and go all the way.

@Sereg: Ears can't be too big or you might get poked in the eye.

I'm pretty ambivalent about the "typical" fantasy races. I tend to enjoy works that create new races or do something interesting with them rather than just defaulting to your typical "elves and dwarves" setup.

Too true.

I inevitably had more fun playing against someone running tribal Gpblins that someone running an elf tribal. I've got a pretty entertaining troll tribal somewhere that made use of Dead-Iron Sledge & Lure. It definitely isn't the best deck, but it's fun.

I wouldn't mind having a regular, non-elf sexy friend.

Actually, G1 had some elves as well as the other races at least once. They were pretty dickish in a neutral we're staying out of this kind of way.

Basically, other than the Moochick who forgot what he was trying to help them with half the time, the other races were apathetic at best. With the strange exception for the ice orcs and lava demons who seemed nice enough.

And then we find out that they are like Discworld elves. Amoral bastards who don't give a fuck about anything but their own pleasure and think humans are just animals to amuse themselves with.
