Which Downer Am I! - Page 24 - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Mithalwen · 07-13-2006, 06:25 AM

Well a Canadian managed .... and Note can be synonymous with Mark....

Well done wilwa!

wilwarin538 · 07-14-2006, 11:54 AM

Thank you!

I'm not very good at coming up with questions, so this one might be easy, but it probably will require the use of Google, or another search engine.

Daphne Anderson, Amanda Donohoe and Felicity Dean were all called by this Downer's name.

Good luck!

Eomer of the Rohirrim · 07-15-2006, 10:23 AM

Well, I came across the name Nora, and found that there was actually a Downer called that.

I have no idea what it all means.

wilwarin538 · 07-15-2006, 10:32 AM

That's not it Eomer.

Maybe it's harder then I thought.

If no one gets it by tomorrow I'll give you another woman's name.

Kath · 07-15-2006, 05:03 PM

Ok, slightly random guess inspied by google - Guinevere?

wilwarin538 · 07-16-2006, 08:05 AM

Kath got it!

The three woman I mentioned were all actresses who played Lady Guinevere in a film.

Your thread Kath.

Kath · 07-16-2006, 11:04 AM

Thanks wilwa, methinks I need to go assign Google to the Shire!

A name with little sanity.

Now while this makes sense to me it may not to anyone else

Gil-Galad · 07-17-2006, 06:52 AM

hmmm... there are alot of names like that... LMP?

Kath · 07-17-2006, 10:01 AM

Nope.

Kath · 07-20-2006, 10:39 AM

Clues needed?

Valier · 07-20-2006, 10:43 AM

How about either Fordim or even the Perky Ent?

Kath · 07-20-2006, 12:02 PM

No.

It's not the actual name that indicates insanity. Also, part of the clue is an anagram. Hope that helps.

Valier · 07-20-2006, 12:24 PM

Anagram!!!!!

I'll never get it now.....Ok I'll try.

Feanor of the Peredhil · 07-20-2006, 12:35 PM

Throw in an apostrophe with some bad grammar and the whole dratted thing is

I amn't Estelyn with a tail.

So the answer is obviously not a betailed Esty...

Wait!

It man Estelyn with a tail.

So all we have to do... is find a male Esty... that does have a tail!

Kath · 07-20-2006, 12:37 PM

Fea, though I think you're already quite aware of this, that is not the answer.

Nice try though!

Kath · 07-26-2006, 02:34 PM

Is another clue necessary?

Eomer of the Rohirrim · 07-26-2006, 03:38 PM

You know it is.

Kath · 07-26-2006, 03:46 PM

Ok, well, try looking at people's locations.

Naria · 07-26-2006, 06:27 PM

First time guesser; long time viewer here

. I'll give it a try how about Lhuna?

Kath · 07-27-2006, 04:14 PM

Not Lhuna I'm afraid - but nice to see you guessing!

mormegil · 07-27-2006, 04:28 PM

Mithalwen?

Somewhere between flaky and barking mad

Though I'm not sure of the anagram though you can extract Mithalwen from your clue.

Kath · 07-27-2006, 04:34 PM

You are correct morm. The anagram bit was:

name with l ----> Mithalwen

Not a great one seeing as I'm bad at them myself, but I thought I'd give it a shot. At any rate, it's your thread

mormegil · 07-27-2006, 05:26 PM

I am often seen but seldom heard

Diamond18 · 07-27-2006, 06:30 PM

First guess, Hookbil. His PT is Alive without breath and you if you don't have breath you can't speak, hence seldom heard. But he does a lot of graphic stuff, ergo often seen.

mormegil · 07-27-2006, 09:04 PM

Nope but an understandable guess.

Glirdan · 07-27-2006, 09:06 PM

First guesses that come to mind are Wayne or Wilwa. Both of them have been seen around quite often, yet as of recently, they became rather quiet.

mormegil · 07-27-2006, 09:13 PM

Again no, I fear you are both looking in the incorrect direction.

Gil-Galad · 07-28-2006, 06:51 AM

the Perky Ent? you always see him as a user online or viewing a thread but he usually doesn't post

**The Saucepan Man** · 07-28-2006, 09:47 AM

It is (often unfairly) said that children are best seen and not heard.

So, Child of the 7th Age?

mormegil · 07-28-2006, 12:05 PM

Sauce that is a good guess and I like the logic but no on both accounts.

However perhaps Chris De Burgh could be of some help.

Diamond18 · 07-28-2006, 04:03 PM

Well, using the Chris de Burgh hint -- is it Me

or Fea?

He has a song called "Diamond in the Dark" and a song called "Lady in Red" which is what motivates those guesses. Yet how either of us would tie in to the first clue, I don't know.

Diamond18 · 07-28-2006, 04:11 PM

Oh wait wait, I change my guess! JennyHallu perhaps? She has a lady in red in her avatar and being a "hallucination" she is something you usually see rather than hear.

mormegil · 07-28-2006, 04:56 PM

It really is a bit more literal than that Diamond but I love to see the wonderful ways in which you all think.

Valier · 07-28-2006, 05:06 PM

So what does Chris De Burgh have to do with anything?....I was thinking Jenny too.

mormegil · 07-28-2006, 05:18 PM

Now if I told you that it would give away the whole thing but it is somewhat related to his song 'Lady in Red'

Gil-Galad · 07-28-2006, 05:47 PM

Feanor perhaps? her 'Bringer of the Red Dawn' title

Valier · 07-28-2006, 08:16 PM

Or Perhaps Roa? Her Avie is a red-haired girl

mormegil · 07-28-2006, 08:43 PM

No she's not a well known downer because the clue is fairly literal on not heard often. Much more so than the downers you are mentioning.

Diamond18 · 07-28-2006, 08:49 PM

Would it be.... red?

I don't think she's been here in years.

Or, possibly, Rhod the Red.

mormegil · 07-28-2006, 09:11 PM

Diamond, if you don't get this soon I may have to whip you!
