#6 Firien Wood?

[ 3:16 PM December 01, 2003: Message edited by: Turambar ]

**The Saucepan Man** · 12-01-2003, 10:22 PM

Ahem! It seems that I cross-posted with Squatter, so my taunting was not entirely fair. [img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img] [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

1. Bag End (Hole in bottom of sack.)
2. Olog-Hai (Superior troops may avoid being petrified in battle.)
3. Beorn (Magician found in Combe or near Archet.)
4. Doomed ocean fortress.
5. Evil one gives love-bite, by the sound of it.
6. Horse lord said to have come to an end at this place.
7. King reverses commercial edict.
8. A Hobbit who can take his drink?
9. Orrostar (Headless swordsman and main attraction from Eastern land.)

Three out of four, Squatter. And Brandybuck is very close for #8.

Still here, and relatively unflamed, Turambar. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] But I am afraid that Firien Wood is not correct. [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img] [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Turambar · 12-02-2003, 09:11 AM

# 7 Walda ?

**The Saucepan Man** · 12-02-2003, 10:19 AM

Nope, not correct I'm afraid, Celebrian and Nilpaurion. Turambar, however, has come up trumps this time:

1. Bag End (Hole in bottom of sack.)
2. Olog-Hai (Superior troops may avoid being petrified in battle.)
3. Beorn (Magician found in Combe or near Archet.)
4. Doomed ocean fortress.
5. Evil one gives love-bite, by the sound of it.
6. Horse lord said to have come to an end at this place.
7. Walda (King reverses commercial edict.)
8. A Hobbit who can take his drink?
9. Orrostar (Headless swordsman and main attraction from Eastern land.)

is #8 a Took?

**The Saucepan Man** · 12-02-2003, 05:16 PM

No, no and no.

Welcome to the Downs and to the Quiz Room, by the way, Celebrian and Usta Salque. I hope that you enjoy yourselves here. I moderate here and in the Quotable Quotes forum so, if you have any questions, feel free to PM (private message) me. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

My guesses, right.

6. Aglarond or Helm's Deep? How about Paths of the Dead or Dwimorberg?

Finwe · 12-03-2003, 11:56 AM

4) Himring?

**The Saucepan Man** · 12-03-2003, 05:50 PM

Good answer, The Laurenendorian, but it's not the one that I'm looking for. The actual answer is not so clever - it's more of a pun. [img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img]

Still not there on #6, Nilpaurion. You're all thinking too literally on this one. [img]smilies/evil.gif[/img]

Himring's not correct for #4 either, I'm afraid, Finwe. This one requires a bit of translation.

Carry on solving, folks ... [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

4. Umbar!

6. Vales of Anduin???

**The Saucepan Man** · 12-04-2003, 08:22 PM

Keep guessing. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Nilpaurion Felagund · 12-06-2003, 05:21 AM

No way! Umbar is not number 4's answer?

Anywhen...
4. Lond Daer?
5. Gothmog?
6. Calenardhon? or Rohan?
8. Rorimac? or Old Rory?

Finwe · 12-07-2003, 03:01 PM

4) Eambar?

**The Saucepan Man** · 12-07-2003, 07:57 PM

No. None of those are correct, I'm afraid.

I'll repeat the clues here for ease of reference:

1. Bag End (Hole in bottom of sack.)
2. Olog-Hai (Superior troops may avoid being petrified in battle.)
3. Beorn (Magician found in Combe or near Archet.)
4. Doomed ocean fortress.
5. Evil one gives love-bite, by the sound of it.
6. Horse lord said to have come to an end at this place.
7. Walda (King reverses commercial edict.)
8. A Hobbit who can take his drink?
9. Orrostar (Headless swordsman and main attraction from Eastern land.)

And now some more hints:

#4 is not a place. Finwe was on the right track with Eambar.

#5 is a bit silly, but what title for an evil one might sound like someone who gives love-bites?

#6 is the name of a horse lord, not a place where one died. The second part of the clue is cryptic.

As for #8, the correct hobbit's surname, and his grandfather, have been given. I'm just looking for another name for him - one that fits in with the "punnish" clue.

Hope that helps. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

6) Herufara?

**The Saucepan Man** · 12-08-2003, 10:20 PM

Well done, Nilpaurion. Your frustration has not been in vain. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

1. Bag End (Hole in bottom of sack.)
2. Olog-Hai (Superior troops may avoid being petrified in battle.)
3. Beorn (Magician found in Combe or near Archet.)
4. Alcarondas (Doomed ocean fortress.)
5. Evil one gives love-bite, by the sound of it.
6. Dunhere (Horse lord said to have come to an end at this place.)
7. Walda (King reverses commercial edict.)
8. Holdwine (A Hobbit who can take his drink?)
9. Orrostar (Headless swordsman and main attraction from Eastern land.)

So that just leaves #5 and the small matter of the Password. It's not Aldudénië I'm afraid, Arestevana.

Nilpaurion Felagund · 12-09-2003, 03:02 AM

I can't find the password: My knowledge of Tolkien's mythos is not yet complete. But to end Sauce's reign of terror [img]smilies/evil.gif[/img] , I'll share my ideas.

1. At first, I thought that the second to the last letters form the password. They now form this: NARA_NDRA. No word like that, right. What if you reverse it? ANDR_ARAN. Nothing formed still...

2. Then, I realised that maybe the *fill appropriate adjective* Sauce had used some form of step thing. The most promising? NANO_RAIS. Don't know what that means...

Wait...is the password SIRANNON? [img]smilies/cool.gif[/img]

**The Saucepan Man** · 12-09-2003, 04:30 AM

Nope. All should be revealed if you get #5 ... [img]smilies/evil.gif[/img]

5) Vampire?

**The Saucepan Man** · 12-09-2003, 01:08 PM

No, not a Vampire. But where does a vampire ususually bite his or her victims? The answer sounds like someone who might administer a love-bite there. [img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img] [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

[ 2:45 PM December 09, 2003: Message edited by: Celebrian ]

**The Saucepan Man** · 12-09-2003, 05:18 PM

Bingo! Solved at last.

1. Bag End (Hole in bottom of sack.)
2. Olog-Hai (Superior troops may avoid being petrified in battle.)
3. Beorn (Magician found in Combe or near Archet.)
4. Alcarondas (Doomed ocean fortress.)
5. Necromancer (Evil one gives love-bite, by the sound of it.)
6. Dunhere (Horse lord said to have come to an end at this place.)
7. Walda (King reverses commercial edict.)
8. Holdwine (A Hobbit who can take his drink?)
9. Orrostar (Headless swordsman and main attraction from Eastern land.)

The Password is indeed Nob (the answer to the question posed by the first letters of each answer). Well done, Celebrian. The thread is yours. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Olog-Hai (Superior troops may avoid being petrified in battle.) 3. Beorn (Magician found in Combe or near Archet.) 4. Alcarondas (Doomed ocean fortress.) 5. Necromancer (Evil one gives love-bite, by the sound of it.) 6. Dunhere (Horse lord said to have come to an end at this place.) 7. Walda (King reverses commercial edict.) 8. Holdwine (A Hobbit who can take his drink?) 9. Orrostar (Headless swordsman and main attraction from Eastern land.) The Password is indeed Nob (the answer to the question posed by the first letters of each answer). Well done, Celebrian. The thread is yours.
