Questions leading to anwsers - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Gil-Galad · 10-26-2003, 10:43 AM

I'm gonna try and make more understandable rules

1. state how many questions you are goning to have(it has to be odd)
2. when you get to last question only the people who have points may anwser it
3. the little questions must ALL be in common with the main anwser

there i hope these are good enough

1. Who sacked the mountain?

Arestevana · 10-26-2003, 11:22 AM

Smaug?

Happy birthday, Gil. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

OK, I've deleted my previous post, so as not to cause confusion. Here are the rules for this game:

The question setter asks no more than six questions, specifying at the outset how many questions there will be (this should be re-stated with each new question to remind people).
These initial questions should be relatively straightforward, although they might take a number of different forms (straight trivia, riddle, cryptic etc ).
Once these initial questions have been answered, one final question is asked.
Only those who have answered one or more of the initial questions may answer this final question (you should identify who may answer when asking the question).
The answers to each of the questions must be connected in some way to the answer to the final question.
The first person to answer the final question correctly continues with the next set of questions.

Gil, was Arestevana correct with Smaug?

Gil-Galad · 10-31-2003, 09:52 AM

Arestevana · 11-10-2003, 03:35 PM

Gil-Galad · 11-10-2003, 06:50 PM

THE Ka · 11-10-2003, 08:02 PM

Arestevana · 11-27-2003, 06:06 PM

I hope I am allowed to answer. I believe I recieved a point for the first question, though I have no idea how you got 'Estra' out of my name, Gil. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

I think the answer is:
Dwalin, Balin, Fili, Kili, Dori, Nori, Ori, Oin, Gloin, Bifur, Bofur, and Bombur. In short, the company of fourteen, bar Thorin Oakenshield. Unless of course you were referring to another event.

Telchar-1

Hint:it was i nyour anwser at question 5

Arestevana · 11-28-2003, 09:10 AM

How about...The company of fourteen?

Gil-Galad · 11-30-2003, 10:47 AM

well.... i'll give it too you!!! it was actually Thorin Oakenshield, but since i'm feeling nice you can go!

Arestevana · 11-30-2003, 12:16 PM

Thanks Gil-Galad.

There will be five questions, the first of which is...

1) With whom did the three mariners Falathar, Erellont, and Aerandir sail?

Telchar · 11-30-2003, 06:11 PM

Eärendil?

Arestevana · 11-30-2003, 08:32 PM

Question two- for whom was the Nauglamir reforged?

Arestevana · 12-06-2003, 06:37 PM

*bump*
Why the dead silence? [img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img] Yes, it's cryptic.
The first part is a straight clue, and the last part needs solving. (some assembly required [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] )

Gil-Galad · 12-24-2003, 12:14 PM

hint maybe?

Arestevana · 12-29-2003, 12:40 PM

The words Old Igloo Renovation Director are not a direct clue. Use 'first' and 'craziest' to get the rest of the clue out of those words. So you should end up with 'I am the daughter of _____'. Good luck.
