4) either Isenmouthe or Ivrin?

NightKnight · 11-04-2003, 12:50 AM

1) Lossarnach (Other confused moon between defeat and a half goblin with flowers.)
2) No wooden bow edge.
3) High starts with back, before the right one river.
4) Isenmouthe (River stopped by white speaks at last note.)
5) Estel (Muddled steel youngling.)
6) Nargothrond (Pointy Greek ship before cut king's chair followed by a note.)

Turambar · 11-04-2003, 07:10 AM

Can you explain 1 and 3?

NightKnight · 11-04-2003, 01:26 PM

Sure.

Quote:

Other confused moon

Take another word for moon, Rana, and mix it up to get arna.

Quote:

between defeat and a half goblin with flowers

Another word for defeat is loss.
Half goblin = orch without or
With flowers was the straight clue, as Lossarnach is a flowery region.
Then stick in arna between loss and ch. Lossarnach! [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

As for number 3, High is the straight clue. Think of a prefix meaning back, and I think you'll find it. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Turambar · 11-04-2003, 01:50 PM

I meant 4, not 3, but thanks for the hint on 3.

Rerir ?

NightKnight · 11-04-2003, 02:04 PM

Oh, well, here it is:

Quote:

River stopped by white speaks at last note

River stopped by white = Isen was stopped by Saruman
Speaks = mouth
And then an E.

NightKnight · 11-04-2003, 02:06 PM

#2 Oakenshield? I'm not getting that one . . .

NightKnight · 11-05-2003, 03:02 AM

Nope. It's mostly synonyms in that one.

Finwe · 11-06-2003, 06:39 PM

2) Onodrim?

NightKnight · 11-07-2003, 12:43 AM

Yeah, Onodrim it is. Next password, please. [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img]

1. Camlost?

4. Nibs?

5. Curufin?

Finwe · 11-13-2003, 09:23 PM

Here's a hint:

1.) (person)

2.) (place)

3.) (place)

4.) (person)

5.) (person)

6.) (person)

Many of them are in the Silmarillion.

Turambar · 11-18-2003, 05:38 PM

Apparently we need more hintses.

Nilpaurion Felagund · 11-18-2003, 07:25 PM

Yes, yes...more hintses...*gollum, gollum*

By the way...how many avatars have you had, Turambar...just a question...that one's new...

[ November 24, 2003: Message edited by: Nilpaurion Felagund ]

Finwe · 11-18-2003, 09:57 PM

Look in the Silmarillion, especially in the index where it gives you the meaning of the names and the characteristics of the main characters. A couple of them are quite easy actually.

I'll give you a hint for number 1: He was a very famous wanderer.

Nilpaurion Felagund · 11-20-2003, 12:29 AM

5. Arvedui?

I'll be stabbing blind here, for my Silmarillion has been snatched by a fool...a friend, actually...

Finwe · 11-20-2003, 09:40 PM

Right on!!!! I'm so glad someone finally got one!!!!

NightKnight · 11-21-2003, 09:56 AM

For some odd reason I think number 1 is Beren. No idea why, though.

**The Saucepan Man** · 11-21-2003, 07:49 PM

I think that it would be helpful all round if the person giving the answer or (if they cannot) the question-setter could explain the answers when they are not obvious.

Finwe · 11-22-2003, 07:34 AM

Ok. I'll change the questions around a little bit, to make them a little easier.

Nilpaurion Felagund · 11-23-2003, 11:36 PM

First, I thought it was Curufin, and heroic archer referred to was Derufin. But I was mistaken, so I went for Duilin. The first person that came to my mind that has either half of Duilin is Arvedui. So, I stabbed wildly and I posted my answer.

1. Tuor?

3. Argonath?

4. Bilbo?

The Laurenendorian · 11-24-2003, 08:08 AM

1) Eärendil?

And it appears the Master of Doom has beaten me to the answer to 6).

Finwe · 11-25-2003, 10:03 AM
