2763-4 = 2759

Thats good enough for me, Telchar. Your turn!

Telchar · 03-14-2002, 02:31 AM

What was the reason that Aiwendil/Radagast came to Middle-earth - or rather what/who/how made it happen - and why??? confused? OK! try anyway [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Bruce MacCulloch · 03-14-2002, 08:30 AM

Curumo took Aiwendil to please Yavanna.

Telchar · 03-15-2002, 02:27 AM

Yes - go on!

Bruce MacCulloch · 03-15-2002, 06:41 AM

Which of the Istari had a name that referred to dreams and visions?

zifnab · 03-15-2002, 10:07 AM

Olorin?

Bruce MacCulloch · 03-15-2002, 03:53 PM

That's the one! [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

zifnab · 03-15-2002, 04:37 PM

What act did Saruman secretly imitate from Gandalf?

Bruce MacCulloch · 03-15-2002, 04:59 PM

Smoking

zifnab · 03-15-2002, 06:21 PM

Correct as usual, Bruce!

Nefwathiel Teleri · 03-15-2002, 08:15 PM

Smoking Pipe-weed. [img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img]

Bruce MacCulloch · 03-15-2002, 08:47 PM

Which of the Istari was the "Man of Craft"?

Orald · 03-15-2002, 10:32 PM

Saruman

Bruce MacCulloch · 03-15-2002, 10:41 PM

That is correct.

Orald · 03-17-2002, 01:33 AM

In Jeopardy! style.

This is why the Istari came to the north of Middle-Earth.

Bruce MacCulloch · 03-17-2002, 02:12 AM

What is "to advise and persuade Men and Elves to good, and to seek to unite in love and understanding all those whom Sauron, should he come again, would endeavor to dominate and corrupt"?

Orald · 03-18-2002, 01:44 PM

Judges? Correct.

Bruce MacCulloch · 03-18-2002, 10:41 PM

Here's one that isn't actually about the Istari, but involves one of them.
How long was it after Thráin left his people that Gandalf found him?

Watcher in the Water · 03-18-2002, 11:40 PM

2 years? Anyone for a stab in the dark?

Telchar · 03-19-2002, 02:22 AM

9 years from TA 2841 to TA2850!

Bruce MacCulloch · 03-19-2002, 05:29 AM

Nine years is correct!

Telchar · 03-19-2002, 08:41 AM

Which Istar said that he had attacked Dol Goldur? .... he did use the word 'attack'.

zifnab · 03-19-2002, 09:21 AM

That would be Gandalf, who persuaded the Council to attack Dol Guldor, before that pesky Necromancer attack Lorien.

Telchar · 03-19-2002, 10:28 AM

well zifnab - it was gandalf, but he was talking about a one-man attack - the before mentioned in 2850 - it was actually because he called it an 'attack' that I posted the question, as I was rather puzzled by his choise of words, in his talks with Thorin ei. before the white counsils attack in 2941...

Ask a new one, please

zifnab · 03-19-2002, 10:55 AM

I see, Telchar. Thanks.

Who did Yavanna “beg” to take Aiwendil?

Bruce MacCulloch · 03-19-2002, 12:42 PM

Curumo

zifnab · 03-19-2002, 12:53 PM

Passes the torch to Bruce. [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img]

Bruce MacCulloch · 03-19-2002, 04:32 PM

What did Gandalf have to drink, and how much of it, after spending the day "picking out bear tracks"?

Joy · 03-20-2002, 02:44 AM

A quart of mead.

Bruce MacCulloch · 03-20-2002, 08:52 AM

Your turn, Joy.

Joy · 03-27-2002, 11:41 PM

Sorry, it took so long. Couldn't find the thread again.

In what year and age was the White Council founded.

zifnab · 03-28-2002, 09:28 AM

2463 Third Age.

Joy · 03-28-2002, 01:14 PM

Correctomundo... Your turn Zifnab.

zifnab · 03-28-2002, 02:28 PM

In "The Hobbit" where did Radagast live near?

Bruce MacCulloch · 03-28-2002, 02:53 PM

The Southern Borders of Mirkwood.

zifnab · 03-28-2002, 03:04 PM

Correct!

Bruce MacCulloch · 03-28-2002, 03:54 PM

When the Istari first became known in Middle Earth, what did Men hold them to be?

zifnab · 03-28-2002, 11:37 PM

Of Elven-Kind?

Bruce MacCulloch · 03-28-2002, 11:42 PM

Yep!

Nefwathiel Teleri · 04-03-2002, 08:00 PM

Mordor136 is so cool. look how big this thread is.
