That's why it wasn't makeing sense! You used the later word for Sterrendei!

Which means the word is Yesterday, which was basicly Monday.

Silmarien · 05-06-2003, 07:18 PM

I also came up with este (in the middle of the night mind you).

You're just to tricky. But I see how it works now. Maybe Beren87 will do one I actually have a hope of working out.

**The Saucepan Man** · 05-06-2003, 07:22 PM

Bingo! That's the word I was looking for, Beren. Well done! [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Beren87 · 05-07-2003, 05:04 PM

Well, it's about time!

Now, it's not suprising the fast, red firetruck was so expensive. The new models run at least into the quarter of a million dollars! Hopefully it will keep the firemen safe, especially the fire marshall.

**The Saucepan Man** · 05-07-2003, 05:36 PM

... the fast, red firetruck ...

Hehe! That surely must be Fastred, a Knight of Rohan who fell at the Pelennor Fields.

Beren87 · 05-08-2003, 07:44 PM

I was hoping it would take you more than 32 minutes... [img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img]

Good job! Your turn.

Of Physics, he knew zero. Handing in his Mathematics homework was like torture. And Physics, he never studied or aspired to study. But he had always been interested in the study of History. He found the patterns of the migrations of people over the Ages fascinating, and experienced a great thrill every time that he traced the rise and fall of old Empires. And most of all, he delighted in seeking to understand the tactics and methods employed in the numerous Battles that had been fought throughout History.

There are three words in there, and they are related. [img]smilies/cool.gif[/img]

But clearly not for you, pio. Well done, that is correct. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

I have to tell you I was delighted to be knocked down by an award-winning quizzer!

piosenniel · 05-09-2003, 12:11 PM

There are three words, here, and a dead give away, to boot: [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]
_____________________________________________

Being very fond of trains, I once took the Far Northern Line from Oregon, into Canada, and across the continent – passing from English to French, and back again, in a matter of days. The Bar Car became my usual haunt, and I sought out it out on a daily basis, liking to watch the landscape roll by as I sipped an exquisite concoction called The Flying Dutchman. I asked for the recipe on my last day aboard, and the Jamaican server flashed his gleaming smile, in response. ‘I’ll ask the chief ta instruct ya, ma’am,’ he said hurriedly. Taking another lovely tumbler of it from his cart, he daintily placed it before me.

‘Enjoy!’ he said. And I did.

**The Saucepan Man** · 05-09-2003, 06:11 PM

Hehe. There are at least six in there:

I once took the Far Northern Line from Oregon ...

Took and Arnor

... across the continent ...

Ent

... and I sought out it out on a daily basis ...

Dis

‘I’ll ask the chief ta instruct ya, ma’am,’

Chieftain (of the Dunlendings?)

... from his cart, he daintily placed it before me.

Arthedain

Oh, and Helka's there too:

an exquisite concoction called The Flying Dutchman. I asked for the recipe

Dutch mania [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

piosenniel · 05-09-2003, 06:33 PM

Oh, I see I should have been more specific!! [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img]

The ones I was looking for you got: (the heirs of Isildur)

Northern Line:

Arnor, Arthedain, Chieftains

(& Helka will be pleased I thought of him, even if subconsciously!)

Your turn! [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

**The Saucepan Man** · 05-09-2003, 07:21 PM

Okey-dokey, pig in a pokey, here's the next one:

They were mainly interested in sailing and boating. Being very cliquey, they were known as the cabal. Rogues, they were considered by the townsfolk. People used to shout at them "You are the Cabal! Rogues you are!" But, this simply went to show how intolerant the townsfolk had become.

There are 8 words to find in there, not all specifically Tolkien-related, but very closely linked. [img]smilies/evil.gif[/img]

Silmarien · 05-09-2003, 08:14 PM

ok I've found Balrog twice, cabal. Rogues
and onside? considered
But I'll keep looking

Samwise · 05-09-2003, 09:25 PM

Balrog x2,
hiss-this simply--a reference to Gollum?

Samwise · 05-09-2003, 09:29 PM

boating-a reference to the Brandybucks? But it has to be a word IN a word, dosen't it....? [img]smilies/confused.gif[/img]

**The Saucepan Man** · 05-09-2003, 09:30 PM

Both Balrogs are valid. "Onside" and "hiss" are not. [img]smilies/evil.gif[/img]

Samwise · 05-09-2003, 09:34 PM

interested-rest-what Frodo did when he left the Shire and sailed West? NO clue...

tom bombariffic · 05-11-2003, 02:22 PM

I found "Ent", (it was int "went"), but i dunno if it counts because its not merged between 2 words. hoom hoom.

**The Saucepan Man** · 05-12-2003, 05:37 PM

"Boating", "rest" and "ent" are not among the words that I am looking for.

Hint: It is significant that "Balrog" appears twice. [img]smilies/evil.gif[/img]

**The Saucepan Man** · 05-15-2003, 06:27 PM

Hint 2: It is something that was said.

05-17-2003, 05:28 AM

YAY!!! I've got it!

Quote:

"Ai! Ai!" wailed Legolas. "A Balrog! A Balrog is come!"

The words are: ai x 2, a x2, Balrogx2 is and come

Okey dokey,
"When I was young I dreamed of becoming a baseball. But now I se that we must move forvard, not backvard, upvard, and for ever tvirling, tvirling into a happy sky!" -This is a slightly adapted quote from one of the Simpsons' aliens. Sorry, I couldnt think of anthing original, or good. This is beyond easy compared to Saucepan Man's ai!ai! poser. Oh well. Sorry... [img]smilies/confused.gif[/img]

Is it Varda?

05-23-2003, 10:40 AM

Yes, of course you are right, oh Lord of the Saucepans!

I'll try and concoct something more interesting in the future [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

**The Saucepan Man** · 05-24-2003, 08:03 PM

Heading off sea servant, eh?

LePetitChoux · 05-26-2003, 07:28 AM

Well, the "heading off" suggests a letter or two missing at the beginning, making the answer ostensibly Eä, but then we get the "servant, eh?", which just doesn't seem to fit! So, um, yeah. I'll go for Eä, even though I'm sure it is completely wrong.

Eruanna · 05-26-2003, 08:48 AM

As well as Eä, I think I spotted; Heading off sea servant, eh?

Osse the Maia, and servant of Ulmo.

LePetitChoux · 05-27-2003, 05:05 AM

Ah! Now I get it! Only I'm inclined to think that the last e comes from the "eh" rather than the "servant". But perhaps that's just me. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

**The Saucepan Man** · 05-27-2003, 11:32 AM

The answer is indeed Osse, so you are correct Eruanna (although LePetitChoux is right about the final "e" coming from "eh").

Eruanna · 06-01-2003, 11:08 AM

This unfortunate roamed in the wild, never able to come to terms with his unlucky fate. Rather than accept his doom, he became a rebel, many called him an outlaw. rage overcame him when he found he had unknowingly married his sister. Eventually, giving in to fate, he took his own life.

I expect this will be solved in about five minutes! [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Arestevana · 06-01-2003, 02:31 PM

I disagree. I have been staring at the screen for ten and can think of nothing.

Or is there a Turambar in there as well? I need to go to bed soon so I haven't looked tremendously hard.

Eruanna · 06-01-2003, 03:42 PM

There are three "Words in Words"....sorry, I should have said.

Silmarien · 06-02-2003, 07:19 AM

Bringing this to the top.

The only (seemingly unrelated) words I've found are sun x2, dint, hew, comet and sown???

Eruanna · 06-02-2003, 06:04 PM

Hmm, checking back through the thread, I think I may have gone slightly *off format* with my offering [img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img]

Tinuviel was on the right lines earlier....(hint, hint)...there are three words, all related.

LePetitChoux · 06-07-2003, 02:38 AM

I'm stumped! I've found a Turambar in there, in addition to Tinuviel Took's Turin, but it's an extremely vague Turambar, so I'm not at all sure if its right.

Quote:

Apart from that, I have absolutely no idea! [img]smilies/confused.gif[/img]

Eruanna · 06-07-2003, 06:48 AM

You're right on both counts LePetitChoux (Turambar and it is vague) There is another word in there too:

many called him an outlaw. Rage overtook him when he found he had unknowingly married his sister. Eventually, giving in to fate, he took his own life.

Mormegil

In using the first or last letters of words I didn't follow the format of linking the hidden words properly.....I'll do better next time. And well done to those who found them anyway!
[img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img]
Either you or Tinuviel should go next.

Rather than accept his doom, he became a rebel, many called him an outlaw. rage overcame him when he found he had unknowingly married his sister. Eventually, giving in to fate, he took his own life. Or is there a Turambar in there as well? I need to go to bed soon so I haven't looked tremendously hard. __________________ "What my dear Lady Disdain! are you yet living?"

Rage overtook him when he found he had unknowingly married his sister. Eventually, giving in to fate, he took his own life. Mormegil In using the first or last letters of words I didn't follow the format of linking the hidden words properly.....I'll do better next time. And well done to those who found them anyway!
