I think it's A, spoken by the dwarves to Durin or another Dwarven king...I don't have the books to check though, so I'll leave it as a guess...

Sleepy Ranger · 05-17-2004, 05:46 AM

A certain dwarf said it to another dwarf. Both of which are well known. Atleast I think they are.

Evisse the Blue · 05-22-2004, 01:09 AM

Yes, Dain to Thrain... Well, at least I guessed they were dwarves.

I am bruised and in pain,

A. and I shall not be whole again
B. but it is not too bad
C. let me be alone
D. toss me some morphine, will you?
E. I shall go with the sun

The Squatter of Amon Rûdh · 07-01-2004, 06:18 AM

I'll have what's behind door 'B', please.

Speaking of going with the sun: been into 'Death Quotes' recently?

Evisse the Blue · 07-01-2004, 08:29 AM

And door number B holds the prize! All the others were traps leading to monstrous deaths.

I'll go check said thread right away!

The Squatter of Amon Rûdh · 07-01-2004, 04:47 PM

It certainly is, Heren. I can see that no amount of silly dancing is going to fool you.

wilwarin538 · 07-02-2004, 06:35 AM

Ill try A

HerenIstarion · 07-02-2004, 06:49 AM

Nope

But there were spelling errors omitted, which are now corrected, so you are entitled to another look

Thorongil · 07-02-2004, 07:49 AM

B? Bilbo to Frodo at the end.

HerenIstarion · 07-02-2004, 07:55 AM

Right you are, Thorongil

Take it away

Thorongil · 07-09-2004, 05:23 AM

To tell you the truth,

a) so am I.
b) we are lost.
c) I wondered what you were talking about.
d) YOU SMELL!

HerenIstarion · 07-09-2004, 05:36 AM

C

Twas Sam to Galadriel, when the latter was discussing her ring with Frodo

Thorongil · 07-09-2004, 05:38 AM

Yup. Your go.

HerenIstarion · 07-09-2004, 07:37 AM

B. I don't want any adventures, thank you.
C. You were supposed to come to tea tomorrow,
D. I will certainly do my homework, but
E. I promise to change my crazy ways the day after tomorrow,

Sleepy Ranger · 07-09-2004, 07:44 AM

Its everything but B...... I mean its B but everything....argh I mean its B.
That Bilbo Baggins guy said it to that Gandalf guy

HerenIstarion · 07-09-2004, 07:54 AM

Correct it is, take it over

Sleepy Ranger · 07-09-2004, 08:01 AM

Why must you

1-Disturb my rest
2-Give me no peace at all
3-Destroy it
4-Go alone
5-Leave me

EDIT- The 100th post of this thread.... And it was me who posted it. Brilliant.

Mariska Greenleaf · 07-09-2004, 08:04 AM

Why must you... disturb my rest?

Said Saruman when Gandalf and co came to "disturb his rest".

Sleepy Ranger · 07-09-2004, 08:09 AM

Well done Mari. I do believe its your go.

Mariska Greenleaf · 07-09-2004, 08:15 AM

Thanks Sleepy!

..... half like a goblin.

A. He crawled towards them...
B. Don't you talk...
C. Some say that he could be...
D. He looks more than...
E. According to your table manners, you look...

Sleepy Ranger · 07-09-2004, 08:22 AM

D. Frodo to himself

HerenIstarion · 07-09-2004, 08:25 AM

D

As the 'squint-eyed southerner' was described in Prancing Pony in Bree

HerenIstarion · 07-09-2004, 08:31 AM

Come to think of it, it was rather on the road by Bill Ferny's house. Anyways, previous post being a crossing with Sleepy Ranger, I acknowledge my loss by two minutes

Mariska Greenleaf · 07-09-2004, 08:35 AM

Yeah, Sleepy was a bit faster! For some obscure reason I thought that I had put up a challenging one, how wrong was I...

Sleepy Ranger · 07-09-2004, 08:49 AM

Quote:

how wrong was I

Very wrong

what is the good

1- Of this task?
2- Of such honor?
3- Of this trinket?
4- in destroying it?
5- in him, I yet do not see as you do.

wilwarin538 · 07-09-2004, 11:48 AM

I think 4, it sounds like something Boromir said at the council of elrond.

Sleepy Ranger · 07-09-2004, 12:24 PM

I was hoping my phony trap would work. Nope its wrong.

Firefoot · 07-09-2004, 12:56 PM

I'm going to guess 2; it sounds like something Éowyn would say.

Sleepy Ranger · 07-09-2004, 01:04 PM

It is number 2 but I'm afraid you have the wrong speaker.

HerenIstarion · 07-09-2004, 03:12 PM

Pippin in Minas Tirith, complaining to Beregond concerning his term of being hungry whilst waiting upon Denethor

Sleepy Ranger · 07-09-2004, 03:18 PM

Well done. It is now your turn HI.

HerenIstarion · 07-09-2004, 03:34 PM

merci

what would be the correct answer to the following question?

on foot?

A. Are you nuts? There are leagues upon leagues of wood to wade through!
B. No, I suppose we'll catch a cab
C. Yes, a little walk will do us good
D. Of course, just take a look at our bulging muscles!
E. We are fighting Uruk-Hai!
F. Yes, even as you see us
G. No, noone can walk down from this eyrie; only jump or fly
H. Yes-s-s, my precious-s-s, we have s-s-ssix...
I. On feet!

Sleepy Ranger · 07-09-2004, 03:51 PM

I admit you are a genius!

Well the answer is , "Yes, even as you see us."

Aragorn to that Eomer dude.

HerenIstarion · 07-09-2004, 03:55 PM

You've got your dude(s). Take it over

Sleepy Ranger · 07-10-2004, 12:22 PM

And what may be the answer to your riddle?

What is the first line of the riddle. (It was given befor the question was asked.)

1- Ere Iron was found or tree was hewn
2- Voiceless it cries
3- Whats in my pocket?
4- An eye in a blue face

And I have a special request- If it be ok with everyone may I please post the 120th post on this thread?

Please

Regards,
Sleepy Ranger (Yes I have flipped and I really do want to post the 120th post)

HerenIstarion · 07-10-2004, 01:21 PM

ah, tricksy ranger. Tried to fool me to think it was in The Hobbit! But, truly it was taken from Gandalf's recitation to Theoden, concerning Ents and Huorns:

Quote:

Ere iron was found or tree was hewn,
When young was mountain under moon;
Ere ring was made, or wrought was woe,
It walked the forests long ago.'

So it is option 1, if you please

Sleepy Ranger · 07-10-2004, 01:29 PM

Yes you are correct and now the 120th post. Now I shall reveal why I requested that I be the one posting it. If you'll go back and see pages 1 and 2 I posted the last post on both of them and now with this post I have posted the last post on all 3 pages. Kind of nutty but I like it. Its kinda funny. After noticing that I had posted the last posts on the first and second pages I used my brain and figured out at which post this page would end and 120 was the lucky number (40 posts a page if you've noticed). Now I hold the honor of having posted the final post on all 3 pages. (Evil smiley here)

Anyway Heren your turn.
