Turambar, Banakil is not, but you are hot,! (woops, that sounds like a candy heart)

Edit: and Ruby is right!

I'll re-post. Give me a sec... Here it is:

1) Unnamed: Deserves no moniker (Gondorian name for Sauron)
2) Ruby Gamgee: A rosy jewel
3) Utumno: Melkor digs
4) Lord of the Ring: A Maiar's title
5) Ore: Inner mind, Valentine, heart (tengwa 21)
6) Kuduk: A burrahobbit by any other name is still a burrahobbit (Rohirric)
7) Iorlas: Bergil calls, "Uncle!"

Turambar · 02-12-2004, 12:12 PM

Banazir, then? Although Sam was not the hurrahobbit, I'm thinking associatively.

Celebrian · 02-12-2004, 12:41 PM

Turamarth, good, good! But no, Banazir is but another name...
You are so close! You are all so close!
The pass is looking better than my ol' nemesis, the Redhorn, so it should be easier to pin down than an Ork.

The Password appears to be Uruloki.

So maybe Kalimac for #6 ?

Celebrian · 02-12-2004, 01:13 PM

Kalimac! How jolly! However, you were closer with Banazir.

Hah! You've guessed the password! I assume that means you have time to make a new one, and I'm holding you to it!

Arestevana · 02-12-2004, 02:25 PM

#6 How about Kud-dukan or Kuduk?

Finwe · 02-12-2004, 08:35 PM

5) Oiolairë?

Turambar · 02-12-2004, 09:16 PM

#6 should be óre, the tengwa for "inner mind, heart".

Celebrian · 02-12-2004, 10:08 PM

Arestevana, Kuduk is correct, a Rohirric name for a burrahobbit.
Sorry, Finwe, but óre is the answer, tengwa 21.

Only 1) to go. Voralphin and symestreem are the closest guessers so far.

1. Unnamed...one? Unnamed one?

Quote:

You seem to have two Feanorian characters mixed together, but then, that's the idea of Valentine's Day anyway, isn't it?

No. I believe the idea of Valentine's Day is to...wait...you're right! Mix up! The only day in the year when the human brain is traded for a hamster's...

Turambar · 02-13-2004, 06:23 AM

Ulairi ?

Celebrian · 02-13-2004, 08:10 AM

Nilpaurion, you have it, the (speak-no-evil) Unnamed, Gondorian reference to Sauron. That wraps it up!

Turambar, we expect your puzzle, trifle or masterpiece, next!

Turambar · 02-13-2004, 10:42 AM

1. Isenmouthe -- Sounds like a cooling cure for drouth in a dead land.
2. Leave one small bread for the second-last of his kind.
3. Un-tardy dwarf, with Gondor’s first, visits remote village.
4. Seems that 100 well prepared Bree-men were scattered and killed.
5. Alliterative lines describe legend of the faithful friend.
6. Nimloth -- Elegant court dweller wore white blossom for 30 centuries.

Celebrian · 02-13-2004, 10:48 AM

1) Isenmouthe again?
6) Telperion?

Edit: Do any of you know the ALT code for the "th" aelig character, upper and lowercase? Thanks!

Turambar · 02-13-2004, 11:05 AM

Again ? Whatever do you mean?

But

(E: on Isenmouthe, not Telperion)

Celebrian · 02-13-2004, 11:15 AM

Isenmouthe has been used two times lately in passwords. There aren't very many ME names that start with "I", are there? (Not making an assumption that the password is from ME)

2) Fimbrethil ("Wandlimb" = small + lembas + where are the Ent females anyway?)
4) Archet?
6) Silpion?

Finwe · 02-13-2004, 12:06 PM

3) Balin

5) Huan

Turambar · 02-13-2004, 12:33 PM

All guesses are incorrect.

Note: all clues have cryptic elements - I think.

Nilpaurion Felagund · 02-14-2004, 03:24 AM

ð <- this one, Celebrian? ALT + 0240.

Is the password Istari. Just a guess here.

Finwe · 02-14-2004, 06:12 PM

2) Losgar?

Celebrian · 02-14-2004, 10:22 PM

Thanks for the ALT 0240 ð, Nil!
Edit: Found also ALT 0222 Þ and ALT 0254 þ

6) Ninquelótë, "White Blossom"?

If so, then my guess is the Ivrin for the password.

Silmarien · 02-15-2004, 05:55 PM

2. Gimli or Gloin
5. Gandalf

Turambar · 02-15-2004, 07:13 PM

No right guesses, although Celebrian was very close with her guess for #6.

HINTS (for what they're worth):

2. Person. Silmarillion. Introduced as the son of a more famous character.

3. An obscure location. The Shire.

4. Person.

5. Person.

6. Celebrian is on the right track, but try a later specimen.

Celebrian · 02-15-2004, 08:30 PM

3) Laketown?
6) Nimloth the Fair?

Password: ILLUIN?

Finwe · 02-15-2004, 08:39 PM

3) Ladros

4) Ulbar

Turambar · 02-15-2004, 09:07 PM

Nimloth is right for #6.

Celebrian · 02-15-2004, 09:19 PM

Hroom! begins with I, ends with N....
Password: IRIMON (Tar-Meneldur) ?

2)Roac?

Turambar · 02-15-2004, 09:20 PM

I think you'll need to solve a few more clues before you can guess the Passsword.

Finwe · 02-15-2004, 09:32 PM

3) Michel Delving?

Turambar · 02-15-2004, 09:41 PM

Right general area, but more obscure (and must fit the cryptic clues)

Celebrian · 02-15-2004, 09:44 PM

Oh, please let me guess, Master of the Dark Shadow

5) Oliphaunt Song?
Password: ITHRON ?

Finwe · 02-15-2004, 09:47 PM

Little Delving?

Turambar · 02-16-2004, 06:40 AM

More obscure than Little Delving - it's near some awesome uplands.

And #5 is a person.

Evisse the Blue · 02-16-2004, 06:52 AM

Lo there, password-solvers (and makers) I venture upon your domain.
Is #3 Dwaling?

Turambar · 02-16-2004, 07:39 AM

Welcome, Evisse.

Dwaling, a village in the Eastfarthing near the Hills of Scary, is correct.

Re-posting:

1. Isenmouthe -- Sounds like a cooling cure for drouth in a dead land.
2. Ibun -- Leave one small bread for the second-last of his kind.
3. Dwaling -- Un-tardy dwarf, with Gondor’s first, visits remote village.
4. Seems that 100 well prepared Bree-men were scattered and killed.
5. Alliterative lines describe legend of the faithful friend.
6. Nimloth -- Elegant court dweller wore white blossom for 30 centuries.

**The Saucepan Man** · 02-16-2004, 08:24 AM

#2 is Ibun, son of Mim, the last of the Petty-Dwarves.

(one = I; small bread = bun)

Finwe · 02-16-2004, 08:59 AM

5) Aghan?

Turambar · 02-16-2004, 09:07 AM

Ibun is right, Aghan (never heard of him/that) is not.

Of the remaining two, #5 is very easy, #4 is a bit tricky.

Finwe · 02-16-2004, 09:38 AM

5) Luthien or Leithian

The description seems to describe the Lay of Luthien or Leithian.

Turambar · 02-16-2004, 09:45 AM

The clue is worded poorly, but refers to a person, not the lay in which he is featured.
