Son of Númenor · 06-01-2004, 02:09 PM

Eleventy-one!

I mean, er, seven.

Firefoot · 06-01-2004, 02:26 PM

Eleventy-one, hm, that would be 777 years. I don't think Sam lived to be that old.

That's correct, Son of Númenor. Your turn.

Carnimírië · 06-16-2004, 12:15 AM

Why did Hurin break his harp?

Fingolfin II · 06-16-2004, 01:14 AM

Because he couldn't make a song of lamentation for Lalaith.

Carnimírië · 06-16-2004, 08:00 AM

Right on, Fingolfin! Over to you.

Fingolfin II · 06-17-2004, 01:29 AM

Cheers.

Who counselled Celebrimbor that the remaining two Elven Rings should be sent to Gil-Galad?

Firefoot · 06-17-2004, 05:24 AM

Galadriel?

Fingolfin II · 06-18-2004, 12:22 AM

Yep

.

Firefoot · 06-18-2004, 04:55 AM

What two items were buried with Thorin?

NightKnight · 06-18-2004, 07:47 AM

Orcrist and the Arkenstone.

Firefoot · 06-18-2004, 11:14 AM

Yep.

NightKnight · 06-19-2004, 04:38 AM

Why didn't Thrain take residence in Moria?

Fingolfin II · 06-19-2004, 08:06 PM

Because Dain prevented him, saying that he had seen Durin's Bane (the Balrog) and it was too dangerous. Others also said that Moria didn't mean much to them, as they weren't of Durin's line and it didn't have much wealth in it.

NightKnight · 06-20-2004, 07:33 AM

Yep. The Dain-Balrog reason was the one I wanted.

Fingolfin II · 06-21-2004, 12:47 AM

Which character did Frodo suddenly feel like striking?

NightKnight · 06-21-2004, 03:27 AM

Sam, in the Tower of Cirith Ungol.

Fingolfin II · 06-21-2004, 05:04 AM

Yes- I was thinking of Bilbo in Rivendell, but yours is also right. Over to you, NK.

Lady of the Pants · 06-21-2004, 11:00 AM

Hello, I'm new here and I'm going to ask a Question. Here goes.

How old was Aragorn when his fahter was slain by orcs?

Maikadurwen · 06-21-2004, 03:33 PM

two¿¿¿

Lady of the Pants · 06-21-2004, 07:00 PM

Correct Maikadurwen.Now it is your turn to ask a question?

Maikadurwen · 06-21-2004, 07:20 PM

what is merrys westron name?

**The Saucepan Man** · 06-21-2004, 07:59 PM

Merry's (untranslated) Westron name was Kalimac.

It was, in any event, NightKnight's turn to ask a question, since he correctly answered Fingolfin II's question a few posts up. Check the Quiz Room rules for further guidance.

So, now that normal service has resumed, take it away NightKnight.

NightKnight · 06-22-2004, 07:46 AM

So I will.

How were Gimli and Balin related?

Carnimírië · 06-22-2004, 04:21 PM

Balin was Gimli's father's cousin. Whatever that is.

NightKnight · 06-22-2004, 04:36 PM

Yes, which is first cousin once removed.

Your turn.

Carnimírië · 06-22-2004, 04:58 PM

How old was Frodo when his parents drowned?

Firefoot · 06-22-2004, 06:27 PM

12?

Carnimírië · 06-22-2004, 06:31 PM

Right!

Firefoot · 06-22-2004, 06:40 PM

How many companions did Barahir have when he lived as an outlaw?

Carnimírië · 06-22-2004, 06:49 PM

Twelve.

Firefoot · 06-23-2004, 06:56 PM

12's all around! Correct!

Carnimírië · 06-24-2004, 01:04 PM

Which of Elwë's brothers had a name that dosn't seem to belong to Middle-earth?

Firefoot · 06-24-2004, 01:11 PM

Elmo!

Carnimírië · 06-24-2004, 01:29 PM

Yes.

Firefoot · 06-24-2004, 01:49 PM

Thanks!

Which Dwarves were good at making fire?

wilwarin538 · 06-24-2004, 03:41 PM

Oin and Gloin

Firefoot · 06-24-2004, 07:05 PM

Yes.

wilwarin538 · 06-24-2004, 07:23 PM

ok:

What is Shadowfax chief of?

Firefoot · 06-24-2004, 08:10 PM
