Moria

[Alamarian]

Moria being abandoned is coincidental. Two events that are unrelated but still correlate (almost as if planned) are coincidental. It would be ironic if Moria was occupied, not abandoned. Irony requires incongruity, a reversal of expectations.

you are unfunny

Untrue. You've never seen me dance.

don't people rebuild and/or get revenge anymore

LOL cuz PvP & GvG are balanced enough to do so?

Actually, it is a "unintended connection with truth" (*http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Irony) It is unintended the village of Moria in H&H has been abandoned, just like the "truth" in Lord of the Rings.

Selective quoting. Wiki (hardly the best source) defines situational irony (this particular case) as "a discrepancy between the expected result and actual results." Exactly what I said. Irony requires incongruity. In the classical sense of irony, this leads to truth but this isn't a Greek play.

There is no need to use irony for these situations when there is already a perfectly good word for that, which is "coincidence."

It's amusing that Moria has been abandoned. ;p
