If you still can't get onto it, the linked page is basically just a holder for three Google Doc links:

Where was Edoras, capital of Rohan? (RG Model only, please!)
Having trouble with Valinor.
Visuals at the Pelennor?

... why wouldn't you ignore yet another of his interminable rants about how terrible everything is? You could probably play Baron Huinesoron Bingo. 'Oh, he's at it again; how long until he says 'Golden Age'?' ^_^

hS will forever imagine Barons July and Kaitlyn in the corner of the Council Hall, playing cards and MSTing the meetings

Yeah, the anonymous author decided to play up the 'crow' aspects rather than the 'snark' aspects of Thanasius. I'm sure that, since political satire in play-form is apparently a Thing in Plort, there'll be loads of shows at the Games with snarky Thanasius...

Honestly, the only person accurately represented is I think July - and maybe Iximaz. I'd temporarily forgotten how scheming she was in advance of the elections - 'if the baronial council wants a war' etc.

Though I'm pretty sure she didn't giggle when she was elected.

Caw.

There's one big problem with the theory. The only place where we've found actual hobbit remains is in Flores, Indonesia, which puts the Shire in the Undying Lands. That can't be right, can it...?

Sneakily, you've got a name which can be translated twice - by literal meaning, and by idiomatic meaning (yes, I did have to look it up).

'Scape-grace', 'one who escapes from grace', can be rendered directly into Quenya as Usilissë, 'escaping (sweetness >) grace' (or more technically Usilissello, to get the 'from' in there, but that's way too long). It's probably dual-meaning - both 'escaping from grace' and 'grace escapes from'. ;)

Sindarin doesn't have words directly glossed 'escape' or 'grace'. I went with 'bliss', which cross-references to 'fortune == final bliss'. So you end up as Drevanadh, 'flees from fate'. Sounds like a name for Turin. ^^

Adunaic I've decided to go with a less-literal translation, simply because of how poetic it is: Ayaddazûlada, 'went eastward' (ie, away from Numenor and Aman). Seriously, say that a few times out loud - a-YAD-da-zu-LAD-da.

As for the Black Speech: Sauron loves to switch things around. So instead of escaping from grace, you would instead run to the Shadow: Uburzum, 'to darkness'.

(Because I'm always willing to trade for more languages. ^^)

The theory/setting/whatnot is entirely up for interpretation: the only fact asserted in it is 'Middle-earth was in the Americas'. I carefully wrote two sensible-sounding viewpoints in the 'threads', so people wouldn't read Word-Of-God into it.

The fact that Numenor was the mythical sunken continent is pretty inevitable - it was also Atlantis (just look at the words!), but its location was misunderstood by the elf zombies of Greece.

Pacific Islanders I'd have to look into the timelines. I know Hawai'i/the Meneltarma was resettled about AD 1, but I think the others are fairly archaic? That would imply that they're either lost Numenorean colonies, or elves - possibly from the Twilit Isles. It's all up for interpretation. ^_^
