Sleepy Ranger · 04-07-2004, 09:12 AM

Nope this isn't from FoTR.

Arvedui III · 04-07-2004, 08:29 PM

Herm... sounds like Sam, in Osgiliath maybe?

Orcrist · 04-07-2004, 08:46 PM

Sam in Shelob's Lair
If thats not right, can we have a clue?THe game maybe?

Sleepy Ranger · 04-08-2004, 12:55 PM

Its from the Hobbit.

Orcrist · 04-10-2004, 06:43 PM

Bilbo in "Overhill and Underhill"

Sleepy Ranger · 04-11-2004, 01:29 AM

Wrong. Not said by Bilbo and not in this level.

Orcrist · 04-11-2004, 08:03 PM

That one farmer in the berry maze in Hobbiton?(Sorry, I don't know his name)

Sleepy Ranger · 04-12-2004, 05:40 AM

Nope.If you've played this level you'd have heard it a million times.

**The Saucepan Man** · 04-12-2004, 10:34 AM

It's one of the Elven guards in the Elven-King's palace. I'm working from memory here, but is it one of the guards in the first room that Bilbo comes to when he enters the caves? The female one nearest the exit, I think.

Sleepy Ranger · 04-12-2004, 11:32 AM

Yes thats it Saucepan Man. Actually almost every ELf in that level says it.

**The Saucepan Man** · 04-13-2004, 06:53 PM

Quote:

Well that just goes to show how quickly I finished the level (*ahem* if only ...)

Next question, and I am hoping that this will be quite tricksy:

Quote:

May the stars shine upon your face!

The Perky Ent · 04-13-2004, 07:09 PM

I'm guessing something from the Hobbit or FOTR? In other words, is it from HOBBIT or FOTR

**The Saucepan Man** · 04-13-2004, 07:15 PM

No hints ... yet.

Thorongil · 04-13-2004, 11:12 PM

That one is not from TTT or RotK. No one says anything like that there. I need more games!!

**The Saucepan Man** · 04-14-2004, 11:43 AM

You are correct, Thorongil. It's not from TTT or RotK. I told you that it was tricksy. Keep guessing ...

What?!! You still want a hint? Oh, OK then. It is from what is probably one of the less well-known games.

What do you mean that doesn't help?

Sleepy Ranger · 04-14-2004, 11:53 AM

Less known games? Could you tell us what platform its on? I have this strange feeling its one of those really old games. That have now gone out of existance.

**The Saucepan Man** · 04-14-2004, 11:57 AM

Are you implying something about my age there, Sleepy?

I have it on X-Box (I don't know whether it is also available on other systems).

Sleepy Ranger · 04-14-2004, 12:16 PM

I just went through a list of all the Xbox games ever made(and still to be made) and all the games I ended up with were

Hobbit
LoTR:FoTR
LoTR:TTT
LoTR:RoTK
LoTR:The treason of Isengard

So is it any of these?

**The Saucepan Man** · 04-14-2004, 12:22 PM

It carries the name of one of those, although it is perhaps not the one that you are thinking of. [insert evil smilie]

Enough clues. I want answers.

Orcrist · 04-14-2004, 08:57 PM

Elrond to Thorin&Co in the Hobbit?

**The Saucepan Man** · 04-15-2004, 05:46 PM

No. Wrong game, although it is a good guess.

Try working out who might have said this and to whom. Once you get that, it won't be too difficult to work out where it was said. If you can give me those three things, the thread is yours.

**The Saucepan Man** · 04-17-2004, 06:18 PM

Come on folks. Think who might have said this sort of thing.

And here's another hint. This character is not one who you would necessarily expect to feature in a videogame (or at least not in the parts where the player controls the action).

Thorongil · 04-17-2004, 11:06 PM

Well, Without having played the game in question it is difficult, but it sounds like something Gildor could have said when he met Frodo.

**The Saucepan Man** · 04-18-2004, 01:50 PM

No, the character is one more likely to feature in a videogame than Gildor.

Orcrist's guess was close, except that the game wasn't the Hobbit and the character saying the quote wasn't Elrond. Now, that should be a BIG hint.

Orcrist · 04-18-2004, 08:47 PM

Celeborn to the Fellowship in Lothlorien? (FOTR)

**The Saucepan Man** · 04-19-2004, 03:21 AM

No. Your earlier guess was closer.

Orcrist · 04-19-2004, 08:09 PM

Arwen to Aragorn in Rivendell?(FOTR)

**The Saucepan Man** · 04-20-2004, 05:43 AM

Now you're getting very warm indeed ...

Orcrist · 04-20-2004, 08:14 PM

Elrond to Aragorn in Rivendell?(FOTR)
(Dang you

)

**The Saucepan Man** · 04-20-2004, 08:48 PM

Colder.

Thorongil · 04-21-2004, 01:35 AM

Arwen to Frodo in Rivendell?(FOTR)

**The Saucepan Man** · 04-21-2004, 07:34 AM

Bingo! Well done, Thorongil.

The game is indeed FotR, although not the pure fighting-based one that seems to be the more popular. This one follows the book story more (it has Bombadil and the Barrow-Wight, for example) and you play (on different levels) Frodo, Aragron and Gandalf. Personally, I preferred it as there was more exploring and puzzle-solving involved, but that's probably just me.

Your up next, Thorongil.

Thorongil · 04-28-2004, 11:47 PM

Sorry for the delay. Just a stroke of bad memory. Well, anyway, here is the next quote:

Thorongil · 05-05-2004, 12:52 AM

What? No guesses? I'm sure you gamers out there can handle this one.

Orcrist · 05-13-2004, 08:39 PM

How about Aragorn to Gimli in paths of the dead?(ROTK)
(Hey, how about giving us the game since no one seems to be guessing)

Thorongil · 05-13-2004, 11:09 PM

Close guess. Check a few levels later in the game.

Orcrist · 05-14-2004, 08:24 PM

Gimli in the Pellenor Fields?

Thorongil · 05-17-2004, 07:07 AM

Nope. This is not something they usually say. You have to check places a little out of the way.

Orcrist · 05-18-2004, 08:45 PM

Sam in Shelob's Lair?(Could I have the character?Pleassssse my preciousssss.)

Thorongil · 05-19-2004, 01:46 AM

Since I'm such a nice guy, I'll tell you: Both Aragorn and Legolas said it in the same level.
