Finwe 02-01-2004 09:31 AM

Ok...

You don't need to involve Elwing at all.

Finwe 02-02-2004 06:11 PM

Oooh... you're very close


But, I'm afraid, I'm going to be nitpicky, and you have one or two tiny errors in there.

The Perky Ent 02-05-2004 04:43 PM

Can you give me a hint? Because i'm just too lazy

Finwe 02-05-2004 09:27 PM

Sorry, Perky Ent, I'm giving this one to Silmarien for both effort and almost-there accuracy. Of course, there were a couple of things that were wrong (i.e. Elendil's good ol' da is Amandil), but I'm giving it to you for effort.

BTW, Perky Ent, take a look at this (it's part of your post):

Quote:

Dior -s> Barahir -f> Rian -m> Denethor I -f> Boromir -f> Cirion -f> Hallas -f> Hurin II -f> Belecthor I -f> Morwen -(grandmother)> Egalmoth -f> Beren -f> Beregond -f> Belecthor II -f> Thorondir -f> Turin II -f> Turgonn -f> Ecthelion II -f> Denethor II -f> Faramir -f> Elboron

How in bright heaven did you get from Dior of the First Age to Barahir and then to Rian and then to Denethor I??????

The Perky Ent 02-07-2004 10:34 AM

Silmarien, if you're there, please make up a new thingie for this game!

Silmarien 02-07-2004 10:27 PM

Sorry about my mistake but it took a while to type it all out and then when it was wrongish I couldn't be stuffed checking then typing it all again. Anyway try this.

Theoden and Denethor two ways.

The Perky Ent 02-08-2004 12:23 AM

This should be easy!

Theoden -s> Thengel -f> Theodwyn -m> Eowyn -m> Elboron -s> Faramir s-> Denethor


Well, glad that's over!

<font size=1 color=339966>[ 1:24 AM February 08, 2004: Message edited by: The Perky Ent ]

Silmarien 02-10-2004 03:57 AM

Aye but tis only one way, I asked for two.

NightKnight 02-10-2004 07:36 AM

Theoden -s> Thengel -f> Theodwyn -m> Eomer -f> Elfwine -s> Lothiriel -d> Imrahil -s> Adrahil -f> Finduilas -m> Boromir -s> Denethor

Theoden -s> Thengel -f> Theodwyn -m> Eowyn -m> Elboron -s> Faramir -s> Denethor

Silmarien 02-13-2004 02:33 AM

The Night Knight has pray continue good sir.

The Perky Ent 02-13-2004 11:23 PM

Not in the Rules
 
<font color=red>Silmarien, although it is true that NightKnight has answered your question, you don't get to ask for two different answers at a time. It's one per question! </font color=red>

NightKnight 02-14-2004 05:45 AM

Orodreth -> Turin

The Perky Ent 02-14-2004 11:24 AM

Which Orodreth?
 
Orodreth -s> Aldarion -s> Earendur -f> Amlaith -f> Beleg -f> Mallor -f> Celepharn -f> Celebrindor -s> Malvegil -s> Argeleb I -s> Arveleg I -s> Araphor -f> Argeleb II -f> Arvegil -f> Arveleg II -f> Araval -f> Araphant -f> Arvedui -f> Aranarth -f> Arahael -f> Aranuir -f>Aravir -f> Aragorn I -f> Araglas -f> Arahad I -s> Aragost -f> Aravorn -f> Arahad II -f> Arassuil -f> Arathorn I -f> Argonui -f> Arador -f> Arathorn II -f> Aragorn II -f> Eldarion -s> Arwen -d> Elrond -s> Elwing -d> Dior -s> Beren -s> Barahir -s> Bregor -s> Bregolas -f> Baragund -f> Morwen -m> Turin

The Perky Ent 02-14-2004 09:31 PM

nk?
 
NightKnight? Please post!

NightKnight 02-15-2004 08:26 AM

Actually, you have the wrong Orodreth. The one I meant is the elf in Silm. Nice work though.

The Perky Ent 02-15-2004 09:29 AM

OK Then how about this!
 
Orodreth -s> Finarfin -f> Galadriel -m> Celebrian -m> Arwen -d> Elrond -s> Elwing -d> Dior-s> Beren -s> Barahir -s> Bregor -s> Bregolas -f> Baragund -f> Morwen -m> Turin

Now does it work?

NightKnight 02-16-2004 02:03 PM

Just one tiny mistake: Bregor -s> Bregolas. Bregor was the father of Bregolas, not the other way around, but you'll get it anyway. :)

The Perky Ent 02-16-2004 05:32 PM

Let's see...i need to think of a really hard one! OH! This will do:

Pelendur ---> Indis


That should occupy y'all for a while!

:smokin: :smokin:

Finwe 02-16-2004 09:33 PM

Pelendur -?> House of Hurin -s> Hurin of Emyn Arnen -?> (Numenorean descent) -s> Elros Tar-Minyatur -s> Earendil -s> Idril -d> Turgon -s> Fingolfin -s> Indis

The Perky Ent 02-16-2004 09:42 PM

I hate to nit pic, but i like to watch you suffer, Finwe! You can fill in the blanks! Here's a hint! If my memory serves right, Pelendur is either the 1st or 2nd steward. You can trace the line of stewards until you can find other links that weave in and out of the fabric of the Stewards of Gondor!

The Perky Ent 02-20-2004 06:24 PM

Anyone want to take a stab at it?

The Perky Ent 02-21-2004 06:15 PM

...anybody...

NightKnight 02-21-2004 06:33 PM

I've found a solution, but it contains one or two small holes. Is it possible to do it without them?

Arvedui III 02-21-2004 07:37 PM

*Pant* I haven't done this before*Pant*But I think*Pant*I have it.

Looks good Arvedui! *wink* your go! *wink*

Arvedui III 02-21-2004 07:56 PM

Umm...yeah. Thanks *Looks quizicly at the Perky Ent and winks back.*

Ok then, maybe something easy(ier) for a change.

Cirion--->Eorl

Edit: Opps, sorry. Cirdan and Cirion are different people.

The Perky Ent 02-21-2004 08:40 PM

Herm...yup, that's it. Your go Perky Ent.

The Perky Ent 02-21-2004 10:30 PM

OK. How about:


Nerdanel ---> Brandir

NightKnight 02-22-2004 06:46 AM

Nerdanel -m> Maedhros -s> Feanor -s> Finwe -f> Fingolfin -f> Turgon -f> Idril -m> Earendil -s> Tuor -s> Huor -s> Galdor -s> Hador -f> Gloredhel -m> Handir -f> Brandir

The Perky Ent 02-22-2004 10:19 AM

That's a big 10-4 NK! Your go!

NightKnight 02-22-2004 01:27 PM

Thank you. :)

Reginard Took -> Lotho Sackville-Baggins

The Perky Ent 02-22-2004 03:43 PM

Well, let's see:

Reginard Took -s> Adelard Took -s> Flambard Took -s> Isembard Took -s> Geronitus Took -f> Belladonna -m> Bilbo Baggins -s> Bungo Baggins -s> Mungo Baggins -f> Longo Baggins -f> Otho Sackville Baggins -f> Lotho Sackville Baggins

Is that it?

NightKnight 02-22-2004 03:57 PM

That is indeed it. Good work! :)

The Perky Ent 02-23-2004 08:46 AM

We've been doing really hard ones lately, so i'm giving y'all a break!


Frodo Baggins ---> Meriadoc Brandybuck

NightKnight 02-23-2004 09:45 AM

Frodo Baggins -s> Primula Brandybuck -d> Gorbadoc Brandybuck -f> Rorimac Brandybuck -f> Saradoc Brandybuck-f> Meriadoc Brandybuck

The Perky Ent 02-23-2004 07:25 PM

Yep! Merriadoc is Frodo's...2nd cousin? I'm too lazy. Let's just say he's his...Relation! Your turn, NightKnight!

NightKnight 02-24-2004 04:37 AM

Aren't all hobbits related in one way or another? :D

Anyway, try Adrahil -> Hurin of the Keys
