With Trilogy Tuesday only 12 days away, we are stepping up the pace on Ticket Exchange. LOTR fans are surely a generous bunch, and we still have quite a few tickets left to offer. Tonight we have FIVE Ticket Exchange offerings, one of which has special circumstances. Please read all the details carefully before replying. [More] Good luck!

A brief excerpt:

When a post is made, the FIRST e-mail I receive — AFTER THE POST IS MADE — expressing interest in that ticket and containing the correct subject line will be put into contact with the ticket-holder.

You will do this by sending an e-mail to maegwen@theonering.net, with the following information:

  • The subject line should contain the phrase specified in the announcement post. I will be looking for e-mail specifically with this subject line. Anything else will be disregarded.
  • A screen name that can be published on the TORn home page
  • Your real name
  • An e-mail address you can be reached at, or a phone number, if you are comfortable with giving out that information.

    DO NOT E-MAIL IN ADVANCE OF ANNOUNCEMENTS, PLEASE. THERE IS *NO* WAITING LIST. By expressing interest, you agree NOT to resell this ticket for ANY AMOUNT higher than what you yourself pay for it.

    Thanks to those of you who have written in about this matter. I’ve made sure to send an email to Jim Sherry regarding his decision to NOT allow TheOneRing.net and myself to host a special Trilogy Screening for 330 people signed up for my line party. Obviously we are very disappointed about this. [More]
