She most certainly is. Well done, alak. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

alaklondewen · 06-08-2003, 05:52 PM

Thank you, my noisy friend.

What class did I take that brought me to the Barrow Downs?

Beren87 · 06-08-2003, 06:47 PM

A study in mental disorders? [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

alaklondewen · 06-08-2003, 08:10 PM

I've definately taken a few of those, but none of them lead me here. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] Good try, though, Beren.

aragornreborn · 06-09-2003, 06:59 PM

A Children's Literature class?

alaklondewen · 06-09-2003, 10:44 PM

Yes! Very good. I believe the board is now yours.

aragornreborn · 06-10-2003, 09:03 AM

Thank you. Well, I had a little trouble deciding what question to pose. But here it is! If this one is too easy I'm going to have to be harder and more cryptic next time! (I've been taking notes from Saucepan Man [img]smilies/evil.gif[/img] )

Who introduced me to Tolkien?

**The Saucepan Man** · 06-10-2003, 10:20 AM

Your Dad checked out the Hobbit audio cassettes from the library and you listened to it on a long car trip. You absolutely loved it.

Therefore, I would say your father.

aragornreborn · 06-10-2003, 05:34 PM

Ohhhhh, and it would have to be you, of course! [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img]

Yeeeeeeees, that's what happened. Your go.

No more Mr. Nice Guy... [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

P.S. Saucepan Man - Oh, cool, you now have a title (you know what I mean). Very nice.

**The Saucepan Man** · 06-10-2003, 06:36 PM

Thank you, aragornreborn. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

What football club do I support?

Beren87 · 06-10-2003, 08:56 PM

Chelsea? and (of course) England.

Although, I'm more of a West Ham person myself. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

**The Saucepan Man** · 06-11-2003, 08:21 AM

Blue is the colour, football is the game
We're all together, and winning is our aim
So cheer us on through the sun and rain
'Cause Chelsea, Chelsea is our name

*Ahem* Yes, Beren, you are correct. Chelsea is indeed my club. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

And I do of course support my country too (good luck to the lads tonight against Slovakia.)

You have my condolences. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Beren87 · 06-11-2003, 08:26 AM

Ha..ha..ha. [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img]

What does my girlfriend call herself relating to this site?

aragornreborn · 06-11-2003, 01:54 PM

Faye Took, perhaps?

Beren87 · 06-11-2003, 02:16 PM

Ah. No. That's not quite what I mean. (That was a long time ago)

*insert ackward pause here*

Anyway, it's more of a title than anything. I'll give a hint, "Barrow-_______".

aragornreborn · 06-11-2003, 03:22 PM

*insert my own awkward pause*

Forgive me.

Let me just think about this one...

vanwalossien · 06-12-2003, 02:16 AM

She calls herself a Barrow-Widow, doesn't she?

Orofaniel · 06-12-2003, 11:52 AM

I think you are right, it is Barrow-Widow.....

Yay!!! this is my 100th POST!!!!!!!!!!!!! [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

That she does vanwalossien.

Jokingly, I hope.

vanwalossien · 06-12-2003, 02:06 PM

Hopefully she's joking, otherwise I think you're dangerously addicted to the Barrow-Downs..

Ok, question about me... What is the Sindarin translation of my real name?

Beren87 · 06-12-2003, 02:11 PM

Dûnhísië? or is that Quenya...or am I just wandering lost in the woods somewhere..?

vanwalossien · 06-12-2003, 02:21 PM

No, that's not it
EDIT: And yes, that must be a Quenya word. 'Hisië' is 'mist' in Quenya, isn't it?

[ June 12, 2003: Message edited by: vanwalossien ]

aragornreborn · 06-13-2003, 06:20 AM

Well I don't know your real name nor am I anything remotely resembling anyone remotely knowledgeable about Sindarin.

But judging from Beren's Quenyan guess, does the Sindarin version go along the lines of Eriahithlain? At least, those are two roots that I put together. It does have a nice ring to it...

vanwalossien · 06-13-2003, 07:28 AM

Nope, not that either. I posted it only a week ago or something, and (hint follows)I think Beren has seen it, he posted after me on that thread.

vanwalossien · 06-18-2003, 02:32 PM

Any guesses? It's not that difficult, just browse a bit and you'll find it..

Orofaniel · 06-18-2003, 02:34 PM

May we have a hint, perhaps?

vanwalossien · 06-19-2003, 06:49 AM

It starts with H. I posted it somewhere in the Barrow-Downs forum, it has been mentioned in Languages also, I think, a long time ago...

alaklondewen · 06-19-2003, 09:22 PM

Yes! I found it...your Sindarin name is Hiriel...very pretty. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

vanwalossien · 06-22-2003, 04:38 PM

Correct, you go [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

alaklondewen · 06-28-2003, 11:06 PM

Sorry for the delay. This is easy, so I'm sure several of you will know this without looking for it. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

What is my major study in school?

Sophia the Thunder Mistress · 07-03-2003, 12:22 PM

Psychology... though why anyone would pick it over Philosophy is something I'll never understand...

[img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] Sophia

alaklondewen · 07-03-2003, 05:01 PM

Sophia, we shall talk about the above comment in private. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] You're correct, of course, so please carry on.

Sophia the Thunder Mistress · 07-05-2003, 06:32 AM

Muahahaha! or, oops, I mean...

Should be very easy:

What is the title of my blogspot site?

Lyra Greenleaf · 07-05-2003, 06:44 AM

"A Turbulent Wind". It's your homepage- that's hardly challenging is it!

I'm forever blowing bubbles, pretty bubbles in the air.
They fly so high, nearly reach the sky
Then like my dreams they fade and die.
Fortune's always hiding, I've looked everywhere
But I'm forever blowing bubbles- pretty bubbles in the air!
(Translation- me too!)

Sophia the Thunder Mistress · 07-05-2003, 07:24 AM

lol, not difficult at all.

Your go, and er... to add a link in your sig copy and paste in that:

[*URL=http://*]web page[/URL]

with the address inthe proper spot and the text you want where "web page" is now, and take out the asterisks. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Hope that's helpful!

It is still around somewhere, so it doesn't have to be from memory!

Yes...and yes, it is!

elven maiden Earwen · 07-13-2003, 08:31 PM

ok.

What's my real name?

Hint: It's not Earwen [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img]
