OK, one week after the last one, here is the fifth Tengwar Challenge. Again, words in red are ones I’m not sure about. There’s only one in this Challenge. Of course, that doesn’t mean all the rest are correct.

Panther : August 26, 2003 :

Thanks to my cousin, I’ve been able to play around with the latest seed of Panther. It is MUCH better than the previous release of Panther. Much more stable and now supports CD/DVD burning, which was a big problem with the last one. There’s lots of nice little touches here…
Here’s my first crack at writing in the second Mode of Beleriand. I’m pretty sure it’s correct, except I’m not sure if I wrote “ou” correctly. It says, “People demand freedom of speech to make up for the freedom…
Something is screwy with my both my quotes and referrers. I’ve checked my site’s stats, and it showed the traffic was almost twice as much as July, even though August is only a little over half way through. I checked the logs, and my quotes script is being accessed A…

If you think I have a lot of extra time on my hands, check out what this guy did on his free time. It’s called the Zombie Infection Simulation. It basically is a Java applet that shows what it would be like for a city of…
I’m wondering how long it will take before the Iraqi people get sick of the bombings and sabotage. They’re finally getting a taste of real freedom (which is scary when you haven’t had any in a long time), and some bands of Saddam loyalists and foreign asswipes are trying to…
I’ve written The Owl and the Pussy Cat by Edward Lear in Tengwar. It’s the longest piece I’ve written so far. I can tell I’m getting the hang of this because I’m getting faster in both writing and reading Tengwar. In this poem, there weren’t really any words that stopped…
This challenge marks the first time I started using the diphthongs based on Tolkien’s Michael Endorian autograph. I’m not sure if I did them all correctly.
