In this game, you are given a sentence, in which a word is hidden.
e.g.
A rag ornament can turn out to be great.
A rag ornament can turn out to be great.

See? The hidden word is Aragorn.
Also, the sentence preferably should give a clue (the example wasn't that great, but a rag ornament is kinda shabby, but then becomes great (Aragorn analogy). You know what I mean.)

OK, First Sentence:

To wake a sleeping horse, poke it with a rod.

That was easy. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Pallando B.C · 01-11-2003, 06:27 PM

Yes

Beren87 · 01-11-2003, 06:51 PM

Somewhere Orlando Bloom is mad, he never learned the history of Rohan.

Wow, this is more difficult than I thought.

LePetitChoux · 01-12-2003, 06:12 AM

This is more difficult than I thought! I have no idea!
moredi?

Manardariel · 01-12-2003, 12:00 PM

Yeah, this is hard.. I´d say Eorl, to find in: SomewherE ORLando Bloom....

Beren87 · 01-12-2003, 12:17 PM

Correct Manardariel!

LePetitChoux · 01-12-2003, 12:20 PM

OH! I thought the second sentence was the clue! [img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img]
Oh dear!

Beren87 · 01-12-2003, 12:25 PM

Aye, the clue to the person in the first sentance.

LePetitChoux · 01-12-2003, 02:35 PM

I mean,
"This is more difficult than I thought"

Manardariel · 01-13-2003, 10:30 AM

Soo, it´ss my turn then? Ok, here´s my sentence:

You may fool my friend, but I know summer-rye is best.

Fairly easy, I´d say. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

LePetitChoux · 01-13-2003, 01:42 PM

summer-rye

Merry!

Manardariel · 01-13-2003, 04:39 PM

There is sometimes good reading on dorm room doors.

Beren87 · 01-15-2003, 05:34 PM

Gondor?! I hope so, i've been sitting and staring at the bloody thing for 12 minutes

alaklondewen · 01-15-2003, 05:54 PM

I just laughed so hard, I almost fell out of my chair. Yes, Gondor it is! Your turn. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Beren87 · 01-15-2003, 06:18 PM

Wew, was driving me nuts! lol, well here:

The gag Ron decided to play, battered his concious quite horribly.

Orual · 01-15-2003, 06:57 PM

Is it Grond?

Beren87 · 01-15-2003, 07:06 PM

Sheesh, just when I thought I had made a difficult one! Your turn Orual!

Orual · 01-15-2003, 07:11 PM

Believe me, it was difficult! I was sitting there going "Eh...Agrond? Could he have been some distant ancestor of Aragorn?" It took a few minutes for the light to dawn on me...

Moving right along.

Watch out for that fang, Marvin!
