Where would I start a LOTR marathon from if I wanted to skip forward to a more action packed point and skip some of the world building

As the poster is a major contributor of potato-based content I believe that would not be in the best interests of the community.

We will require the user to provide potato world-building information in each post as a condition.

You don't think that could get a bit overwhelming? The intricacies of potato consumption would be better spread out and shared at appropriate intervals and not forced, IMO

You can force a potato just as much as you can force a babe's first words
