	Troll (Discworld) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Trolls are made of "metamorphorical rock" (a play on metamorphic rock and metaphorical), which basically means that certain trolls take on the characteristics of certain stones and minerals, which they are usually named after.
		In a troll courtship the male troll hits the female troll on the head with a rock, although the rock must be a suitably attractive one to gain the female's favour.
		Trolls and dwarfs have an ongoing feud, ostensibly stemming from one being a race of living rocks, and the other being a race of miners.

	Snowgum Films - Troll Bridge
		Troll Bridge is now being adapted into a short film by Snowgum Films, a keen and enthusiastic group of film-makers based in Melbourne, Australia.
		While Troll Bridge has absolutely nothing to do with Maskerade (going so far as to be shot on the other side of the planet), we hope to avoid some of the problems the project seemed to have.
		Although Troll Bridge is her maiden voyage (so to speak), we also have several other scripts being developed and worked on in which we hope to shoot in the future.

		Discworld, in a universe not quite parallel to ours, is, as the name suggests, a giant disc, containing continents and oceans and many populations, and resting on the backs of four elephants, who in turn stand on a giant turtle, who is swimming steadily, relentlessly, across the universe.
		The primary tasks of this cleaned-up Watch are two: forestall a riot-cum-war between the city's dwarfs and trolls, and solve the murder of a dwarf in a tunnel under the city.

		I know what a mythical troll is. I've also heard the term used for short, plump girls who frequent our local bars, but I have never seen the term used before in a photography context.
		Trolls existed long, long before most photographers/camera enthusiasts even knew there was such a thing as the internet, let alone banded together into a USENET forum.

	The Discworld - Discworld Noir Problems (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		I can install Discworld Noir without any problems or error-messages; but it does not create a shortcut on my desktop, there are no entries in the start menu, and in the folder there is not even a file named "Discworl.exe" or something like this.
		Discworld Noir seems to load OK (have tried full and typical installation), but when it gets to the end it asks if I want to put a shortcut on the desktop, I click yes (but no shortcut appears), and immediately get another dialogue box asking me if I want to play the game.
		Now Discworld Noir may work but if you still get the "The application failed to initialize properly (0xc0000005), Click on OK to terminate the application" message try downloading the Application Compabillity Update for Windows 2000 found at http://www.microsoft.com/windows2000/downloads/tools/appcompat/default.asp.

		Not only is the Discworld map practical (yes – you can finally work out just where all the various locations on the Discworld are in relation to each other!) but it’s gorgeous to look at.
		I've been a Discworld fan for a few years now so i finally bought this map to follow exactly where characters were actually going in the books.

		The Battle of Koom Valley was a battle between dwarfs and trolls in Terry Pratchett's Discworld.
		There have actually been several battles in Koom Valley, possibly because it's a naturally suitable location for an ambush, near where dwarf clans and troll tribes are most likely to come into conflict, and possibly because the History Monks stitched the same event into Discworld history on several occasions.

		Welcome to Ankh-Morpork, Discworld's most happening city and so carefully described it could be considered a character in its own right.
		Divided in two by the River Ankh—a waterway so thick with silt that it should really be considered a walkway instead,** Ankh-Morpork is one of those rather large cosmopolitan burgs that, like a lot of others with a similar claim to fame, always seems on the move but never really goes anywhere.
		Once inside, gaze in wild wonder at its violation of physics with seemingly endless rows and shelves of tomes magical and otherwise—theoretically all of the books in existence, as well as those that were never written.

		Commander Sam Vimes of the Ankh-Morpork City Watch admits he may not be the sharpest knife in the cutlery drawer -- he might not even be a spoon.
		But he's dogged and honest and he'll be damned if he lets anyone disturb his city's always-tentative peace -- and that includes a rabble-rousing dwarf from the sticks (or deep beneath them) who's been stirring up big trouble on the eve of the anniversary of one of Discworld's most infamous historical events.
		Centuries earlier, in a gods-forsaken hellhole called Koom Valley, a horde of trolls met a division of dwarfs in bloody combat.

		Terry Pratchett has devised a fictional history of how Thud was invented, which bears some similarity to the Shahnama theory of the origins of chess.

		My introduction to the Discworld being performance based, it had always been a dream of mine to see a moving picture set in Terry's world.
		We didn't have a couple of million dollars to play with, so shooting a short story was going to be a lot cheaper than one of the full length novels.
