Find your best location in Middle-earth...
That's right! Now you can figure out which location in Middle-earth is the best for you!
Just use our Middle-earth Location Finder.

Well, I'm packing my bags and moving to Rivendell (hehehe, watch out Glorfindel, here comes the scarlet woman herself [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] ).
Who made this location finder? Was it you, B-W? Regardless, here's a big kiss, because this is the neatest addition ever! It's the best one I've seen on any site.

Ha, no surprise, I'm going to the Dead Marshes. I wonder why I couldn't get Mordor itself. Oh well, I guess I'll be fine... [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

I got Rivendell! Glad to be where the party's at! But what's a Nazgul doing at Rivendell? I think you'll have to go in disguise so Elrond and Glorfindel won't open up a can on you!
By the way, I tried several different combinations, and I couldn't get Mordor to come up. Is it one of the choices?

Seems like I am joining a few in Rivendell. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] (Watch out for my ship! [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img])
Thanks for this, it was a great location finder. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

To answer Lush's question, "Yes, I made the location finder. I wanted to make something different that I hadn't seen on other sites. I'm glad you like it."
Mordor is not a choice, but Barad-dur, Minas Morgul and Mt. Doom are.

Anyone going to Bree? I really don't wanna be alone there... Ah well, if I won't like Bree I can always move to Rivendell or The Long Lake [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

I'm going to Lothlorien, but I'm pretty sure they'll be checking my ticket pretty carefully at the door, and seating me in the back of the forest.

OOPS.... I just noticed I had some flaws in my formulas that caused several results to never show.
I recommend trying the Location Finder again.

Shame on you, BW (tsk tsk) [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]
I tried it again and really... now I truly feel at home. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] Mt. Doom with the alternatives of Minas Morgul and Dol Guldur. Now that's more like it. [img]smilies/evil.gif[/img]

It looks as though we'll be neighbours in Edoras, Mhoram. I would say "Don't play Led Zep too loud", but I want to be able to hear it. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

So far, everyone seems fairly pleased with the results they got from the LOCATION FINDER. How was the accuracy? Do you think it gives accurate locations based on the way you answered the questions?

Rivendell!!! Yahoo! That's pretty cool. My second choices were Ithilien and Mirkwood. Pretty cool!

I did it again.....and I got the exact same locations. And I know for a fact that I entered in slightly different answers...hehe.
It seems to be fairly accurate BW. I would love to live in Rivendell...but I'd love live anywhere in ME! [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Well, B-W, I tried the test again, just to make sure, and I still got the same answers. Which means, if I ever get bored of Rivendell, I'll take a holiday in Edoras (undoubtedly, Mho & Squatter will be, erm, overjoyed).
I think it's a very accurate test. It's also not nearly as confusing and long as most of the other tests out there, while still providing a satisfying result.

I'm going home to Rivendell. But this Christmas I'm taking vacation to my two backup plans: Mirkwood and Rohan. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Cool test!
I am most likely to live in Hobbiton, and the other two possibilites are Bree and Ithilien. I think that this is a very accurate test because Hobbiton and Bree are the two most likely places I'd live, since I love hobbits.

I got Rivendell, and Ithilien and Mirkwood also. Then I tried the test again and got Rivendell and Lothlorien and Mirkwood also.
The test was accurate enough for me! I love Rivendell, Mirkwood, Lothlorien, and Ithilien. If I could choose any place in ME to live, it'd be one of those choices!

No need to worry, dearest BW. I haven't seen any other Location Finder out there, but there are all sorts of tests, some better than others. Some LONGER than others. The last one I tried contained 61 questions!!! Halfway through it, I had nearly forgotten what it was all about. Not much fun in that.
And now I'll go back home to my mountain... [img]smilies/evil.gif[/img] [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] [ August 16, 2002: Message edited by: Maikadilwen ]

Yes, I think Lush was referring generally to the myriad of tests out there, not location finders specificly. I haven't seen anything like this, and I take every LotR test I can find. (I'm terrible, I've learned how to slant most of them. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] )
See you in Ithilien, B-W! [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] Warmer climes appeal to you too, eh?

Well, I got Rivendell, Hobbiton, and Bree. So I figure I am a hobbit that lives in Hobbiton, goes to bree to stay at the prancing pony on my frequent visits to Rivendell which serves me much like a summer home. ah, what a beautiful life.

Interesting. I got Edoras and also Bree and Minis Tirith. That's okay - as long as Boromir is there (by whatever means possible! LOL!)

Looks like I'm packing my bags and moving to Rivendell along with everyone else. And if Rivendell doesn't work out, I could always go to Bree or Hobbiton!
I thought this test was pretty accurate considering that I've always wanted to live in Rivendell.

Well, Kuruharan, it seems we're going to be neighbours. I'll live alone up there by Long Lake. When I think about it must reply well to my answers, but ... Lake Town??? [img]smilies/confused.gif[/img] Well, I'll be near dwarves and elves... cool...
And if I get bored of my home I'll go to Rivendell with the rest of you. And Grey Havens, here I come!! [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

I got Fangorn Forest - great! Then Dol Guldur and the Grey Havens! I would love to live in any of those places so looks like your location finder does a good job! Looks like I'm moving out of Orthanc anyway... [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]
