Elenwë -> Belegund

Joy · 11-29-2002, 12:52 PM

Elenwë -> Turgon -> Tuor -> Rian -> Belegund

Lindolirian · 11-29-2002, 12:53 PM

Yes!!!

Joy · 11-29-2002, 01:11 PM

Sador -> Idril

Lindolirian · 11-29-2002, 04:19 PM

Sador -> Hurin -> Huor -> Tuor -> Idril

Joy · 11-29-2002, 06:39 PM

That is correct Lindo. Though there is a closer connection than that.

Sador -> Hurin -> Turgon -> Idril

Hurin and Huor both served Turgon and was brought to his Kingdom by Thronodor the Eagle when they were children.

Lindolirian · 11-29-2002, 06:42 PM

Right...

I knew that.

the Chief of the Lossoth -> Cirdan

Lindolirian · 12-12-2002, 05:50 PM

Perhaps it is too hard?
Hint: the Lossoth are the Snow-men who live near the Ice Bay of Forochel, I believe.

Lindolirian · 12-16-2002, 08:41 PM

Perhaps it is way too hard??

C'mon people, I know you've heard of the Lossoth (aka Snow-men) before!

Flittermouse · 12-26-2002, 06:41 PM

Cheif of the Lossoth --> Arvedui --> Aranarth --> Cirdan

It looked hard, but when I looked where I knew I had seen something about arvedui, it was all on one page in the App. A of the RotK.

Lindolirian · 12-26-2002, 06:48 PM

Hurrah!!! Now for Flittermouse!!!

Flittermouse · 12-27-2002, 11:48 AM

Cool.
Beor --> Glaurung

Beren87 · 12-27-2002, 02:13 PM

Beor-Elwe-Turin-Glaurung

Beor led his people to Beleriand, where he (it is assumed) got permission to settle from Elwe, who helped Turin, who slew Glaurung.

Flittermouse · 12-27-2002, 03:32 PM

I don't want to go with assumed stuff. Just add one more person in to make it for sure.

Beren87 · 12-27-2002, 03:54 PM

Beor-Finrod-Turgon-Turin-Glaurung

That one makes more sense, Beor served Finrod, who was friends with Turgon, whom Turin came to when he came to Gondolin,and Turin slew Glaurung!

[ December 27, 2002: Message edited by: Beren87 ]

Lindolirian · 12-27-2002, 05:02 PM

But Turin never went to Gondolin. I think it is:

Beor-> Finrod-> Beren-> Thingol-> Turin -> Glaurung

Beren87 · 12-27-2002, 05:08 PM

Egad, was thinking of Hurin! *sigh* I conceade defeat.

Flittermouse · 12-27-2002, 05:12 PM

Too bad Beren, you were really close, but then Quiz Master Lindo had to come and ruin it for ya

Lindolirian · 12-27-2002, 06:33 PM

Oops.. heh heh. I just couldn't help myself.

Pimpernel Took-> Maglor

Bruce MacCulloch · 12-29-2002, 12:01 AM

Pimpernel -> Pippin -> Galadriel -> Maglor
Alternatively: Pimpernel -> Pippin -> Elrond -> Maglor

Lindolirian · 12-29-2002, 10:21 AM

That is correct, Bruce.

Bruce MacCulloch · 12-29-2002, 01:52 PM

Durin I -> Samwise

Lindolirian · 12-29-2002, 02:58 PM

Durin-> Aulë-> Saruman-> Merry-> Samwise

Bruce MacCulloch · 12-29-2002, 08:44 PM

Your turn.

Lindolirian · 12-29-2002, 09:07 PM

Mahal-> Gaffer Gamgee

Pallando B.C · 12-29-2002, 09:18 PM

Mahal -> Saruman -> Frodo -> Gaffer Gamgee

Lindolirian · 12-29-2002, 09:20 PM

You are right.

Pallando B.C · 12-29-2002, 09:26 PM

Farmer Maggot -> Melian

Lindolirian · 12-29-2002, 09:30 PM

Maggot-> (Merry, Pippin, Frodo, Sam)-> Galadriel-> Melian

Pallando B.C · 12-29-2002, 09:37 PM

Yes.

Lindolirian · 12-29-2002, 09:42 PM

Vairë-> Diamond of Long Cleeve

Beren87 · 01-02-2003, 09:58 PM

Vaire-Mandos-Aule-Gandalf-Peregrin Took-Diamond

A first attempt...

Lindolirian · 01-05-2003, 05:11 PM

And a very good one at that!
I'll take it, but a safer route would be:
Vaire-> Mandos-> Manwe-> Gandalf and so on because while Aule and Gandalf most likely did know each other, it was Manwe who nominated Gandalf (Olorin) to go to Middle Earth as an Istari, so I would have done that, but you are correct anyways.

Beren87 · 01-05-2003, 05:22 PM

Hmm..Also could replace Gandalf with Saruman.

Gollum-Elendil

Lindolirian · 01-05-2003, 05:55 PM

Ahh, that too...

Gollum-> Aragorn-> Elrond-> Elendil

Beren87 · 01-05-2003, 09:35 PM

Aye, I made that one quite easy didn't I. [img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img]

Your turn Lindolirian.

Lindolirian · 01-06-2003, 03:00 PM

Aye, always trying to think of harder questions; its the hardest part of quizzes!

William the Troll-> Ecthelion of Gondolin

Beren87 · 01-06-2003, 03:15 PM

William the Troll-Gandalf-Manwe-Orome-Turin-Turgon-Echthelion

There's probably an easier way, but thats what I came up with for now.

Lindolirian · 01-06-2003, 03:25 PM

Yes, there is an easier way and it's gotta be 6 degrees of seperation.

Beren87 · 01-06-2003, 03:29 PM

Well there are 6 seperations, just 7 people. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

I'll see what I can come up with.
