And Finduilas is right. Finduilas, you may continue.

Finduilas · 12-13-2007, 08:49 AM

Right. Thanks.

Who's wail kept some group of people (dwarves, elves, hobbits, or men) from praising their leaders good shot at a deer?

The Might · 12-13-2007, 09:12 AM

Quote:

Before they could shout in praise of the shot, however, a dreadful wail from Bilbo put all thoughts of venison out of their minds. "Bombur has fallen in! Bombur is drowning!"

It is Bilbo that kept the Dwarves from praising Thorin's shot.

No, no, no, that doesn't sound.. symmetric enough, if you know what I mean: it should be either "Leggy and Miggy show" or "Leggie and Miggie show"...

And this is horrible, but the name "Miggie" reminds me of Mickey Mouse...

But as long as it's not Miggey I think it'll be alright...

Well, erm, anyway, Finduilas, do go on, I'm sure we're all eager to see the next question.

Finduilas · 12-14-2007, 10:25 AM

The Might is indeed correct.

Have a go, Miggie....

The Might · 12-14-2007, 11:02 AM

Who was suspicious of Frodo because his mother was a Brandybuck?

Nerwen · 12-14-2007, 06:59 PM

Lobelia Sackville-Baggins.

The Might · 12-20-2007, 03:22 AM

No, or at least not what I was looking for.

Nerwen · 12-20-2007, 03:50 AM

Old Noakes of Bywater, then.

The Might · 12-20-2007, 08:07 AM

yes

TheGreatElvenWarrior · 01-01-2008, 03:54 PM

What's the next question then?

Legate of Amon Lanc · 01-23-2008, 03:59 PM

Neerween... haalooo...

Rune Son of Bjarne · 01-29-2008, 09:01 PM

Give me the name of the mariner who sailed the Entulesë

Ibrîniðilpathânezel · 01-29-2008, 09:16 PM

Veantur. I wrote a novel using "entulesse" in the title.

Rune Son of Bjarne · 01-29-2008, 10:01 PM

Right you are. . .I thought it was a semi-hard question, but you proved me wrong. Not even my wrong spelling of the ships name threw you off

The thread is yours

Ibrîniðilpathânezel · 01-29-2008, 10:13 PM

Who was Lathspell?

(Not a toughie, but my brain's a mite frozen, with the blizzard outside.

)

Nerwen · 01-29-2008, 10:28 PM

Gandalf

Ibrîniðilpathânezel · 01-29-2008, 10:39 PM

Quite right! And I hand off to you so I can go hunker down out of the cold for the night. Nasty things, blizzards.

Nerwen · 01-30-2008, 06:26 AM

Funny– over here we've got a drought. I tell you, the water restrictions are getting so tight, it's like being in "Dune".

How did Hunthor die?

Legate of Amon Lanc · 01-30-2008, 06:32 AM

A rock fell on his head. And he fell down into the chasm.

Rune Son of Bjarne · 01-30-2008, 06:34 AM

This is starting to annoy me. . .I might now the answers, but I never see the questions before Legate has answered.

Sorry

But you can still always answer my questions

But, you know, lately I did not answer to anything for some time and no one posted still, so...

Nerwen · 01-31-2008, 12:07 AM

Legate, you are, of course, correct. Your turn.

Legate of Amon Lanc · 01-31-2008, 06:23 AM

Okay. Who did not become a dragon, but became a jackdaw?

Rune Son of Bjarne · 01-31-2008, 12:04 PM

I can of course only talk about when I am around. . . it might be that you don't answer all the time, then I am just unlucky.

Anyways it was mostly said in jest, it was just frustrating looking at a question, knowing the answer and then as one clicks on "reply" up pops your post with the answer.

Now moving on to your question. . .it was Saruman

Legate of Amon Lanc · 01-31-2008, 03:42 PM

See? You are doing well. So you can now post the next, so that I answer it, and...

No, of course, that was a joke. Anyone can try. (But I'll be first

)

Rune Son of Bjarne · 01-31-2008, 09:07 PM

Give me the name of the charachter who died in the same battle as his brother Faramir.

Gil-Galad · 02-01-2008, 12:57 PM

Artamir.

Rune Son of Bjarne · 02-04-2008, 05:18 PM

Correct

Manwathiel · 02-09-2008, 09:14 AM

can i ask a question?

Why is Treebeard on nobodys side?

Well, normally we try to *bump* the thread and if the person (in this case Gil-Galad) does not react, then anybody can ask a question.

Of course this is the unofficial rules, there is a guideline for what to do on the forum, but I cannot remember them right now.

Anyways I don't think Gil will mind you taking over this thread.

Manwathiel · 02-09-2008, 09:23 AM

Thank you

the rule is to wait ten days. usually we give a good two weeks with *bump* posts.

no for our newcomer, i shall grant him(or her) the pleasure of asking the next question

The Might · 03-27-2008, 01:38 PM

Boring...
Ok, so who was the person that stepped through a door although it felt that it's doom was waiting on that path?

Legate of Amon Lanc · 03-27-2008, 01:39 PM

Halbarad?

(Why am I answering?)

The Might · 03-28-2008, 10:30 AM

Why are you right?

Legate of Amon Lanc · 03-28-2008, 11:31 AM

I know couldn't think of anything good

Name at least one Maia who might have been of the folk of Mandos.

Nerwen · 03-28-2008, 08:55 PM

Either it's Pallando (in one version) or that's a trick question.

Legate of Amon Lanc · 03-29-2008, 05:09 AM

It is Pallando

Nerwen · 03-30-2008, 05:31 AM

To whom was the Gaffer apprenticed?
