Is it the horns of Ulmo? *crosses fingers*

paavo · 10-28-2004, 01:03 PM

that's the one.

you are up.

Evisse the Blue · 10-29-2004, 01:13 AM

Great, thanks!

Starts with a B

NightKnight · 10-29-2004, 04:42 AM

Is it a hobbit family?

Evisse the Blue · 10-29-2004, 09:35 AM

it's not Baggins.

paavo · 10-29-2004, 12:57 PM

Did he prove that arguing really isn't good for your health?

Evisse the Blue · 10-30-2004, 08:40 AM

It's not Boromir.

paavo · 10-30-2004, 10:14 AM

Did he prove that arguing really isn't good for your health?

NightKnight · 10-30-2004, 10:28 AM

Is it a dwarven place?

Evisse the Blue · 10-31-2004, 11:25 AM

It's not Bilbo, nor is it Balin's tomb.

paavo · 10-31-2004, 01:09 PM

Did he and his two friends prove that arguing really isn't good for your health?

Evisse the Blue · 11-01-2004, 12:56 AM

Oh! I think I finally know what you're looking for here: It's not Bert the troll.

NightKnight · 11-01-2004, 12:44 PM

Is it a dwarven place?

Evisse the Blue · 11-01-2004, 01:13 PM

It's not the Bridge of Khazad-Dum.

paavo · 11-02-2004, 10:54 AM

is the name used by the fouls of the "tool" of the wise one? (even I don't understand that question

)

NightKnight · 11-02-2004, 03:03 PM

Is it a dwarven place?

Evisse the Blue · 11-03-2004, 01:37 AM

It's not Baraz.

Paavo, what's your answer?

paavo · 11-03-2004, 10:11 AM

the answer is Biter aka glamdring. it is the sword of Gandalf (the wise), and it is called biter by orcs (the foul). I admit that this was quite a vague question so you really don't need to give the next letter (unless if you want to, of course.

)

Evisse the Blue · 11-04-2004, 05:31 AM

No, it was a good question. Nothing wrong with being a bit cryptic. I understood your question, but I couldn't come up with the answer so it's only fair I give the next letter. It's I.
So it's BI so far.

paavo · 11-04-2004, 10:49 AM

is he kinder than what his name would suggest?

NightKnight · 11-04-2004, 12:15 PM

Is it the one who kicked his master?

**The Saucepan Man** · 11-04-2004, 12:53 PM

Is it something that Hobbits avoid?

Evisse the Blue · 11-04-2004, 01:41 PM

It's not Bill the Pony (for Paavo's and NK's question) and it's not Big Folk (for SPM's question).

Fingolfin II · 11-05-2004, 02:32 AM

Did he go on the Quest of Erebor?

NightKnight · 11-05-2004, 03:54 PM

Is it an adventurous one?

Evisse the Blue · 11-06-2004, 05:31 AM

Not Bifur nor Bilbo.

NightKnight · 11-06-2004, 08:18 AM

Is it the faithful's son?

**The Saucepan Man** · 11-06-2004, 10:26 AM

Is it the original Ringbearer?

Fingolfin II · 11-06-2004, 07:49 PM

Is it the original name of a nine-fingered hero?

Evisse the Blue · 11-07-2004, 03:30 AM

It's not Bilbo Gardner, and it's not Bingo (I'm guessing Fingolfin and SPM had the same person in mind).

Fingolfin II · 11-07-2004, 04:35 AM

Is it a name of mockery given by the Fallen Wizard?

Evisse the Blue · 11-08-2004, 01:45 PM

Yes, Fingolfin, it's Birdtamer!

Fingolfin II · 11-09-2004, 12:15 AM

Cheers,

Next letter is an F.

NightKnight · 11-09-2004, 11:57 AM

Is it one of the lost ones?

paavo · 11-09-2004, 12:17 PM

did he compensate his unjust deed?

Fingolfin II · 11-10-2004, 01:34 AM

It's not Fimbrethil or Feanor.

Nilpaurion Felagund · 11-10-2004, 01:41 AM

Is it steward of a realm of gift?

Evisse the Blue · 11-10-2004, 09:28 AM

Was it the one who got what he deserved?

paavo · 11-10-2004, 02:51 PM

did he compensate his unjust deed?

Fingolfin II · 11-11-2004, 12:17 AM

It's not Faramir, Freca or Felarof.
