The point about making them up is that there is at least one clear hint on the speaker and the circumstances. The advantage of this game would be that a solution can only be found through logical thinking. And, a hint should always be provided what book this quote would be in, either Silmarillion, or TLOTR (or The Hobbit). To make clear what I mean, I´ll give some examples: "I THOUGHT A ROSE WOULD FIT YOU WELL: I CARED MYSELF FOR ITS GROWTH; SO THAT IT WOULD ALMOST BE AS BEAUTIFUL AS YOU ARE..." (LOTR) The problem here is the level of style, but otherwise, one can find out that it is Sam talking to Rose Cotton: a rose fits well, a hint on the adressed person´s name; a speaker who likes or reven loves the adressed person, and who could be a gardener. "FROM WHAT I HEAR FROM YOU, OLD FRIEND, THESE WERE TROUBLED TIMES INDEED; BUT THEY DIDN`T AFFECT ME, SAFE YOUR FRIENDS WHO PAID ME A NICE LITLLE VISIT!" (LOTR) This one can be made easier by adding a "Ho! Ho!" or "Merry-dong-dillo" or such: Tom Bombadil talking to Gandalf after the end of the war. But now let´s go in medias res: Who could have said, and to whom: "YOU ARE NOW MY GUEST. FOREVER! HAHAHA!" (from The Silmarillion) 2 possible solutions. </p> |

Lately I have been concentrating so much on the LotR for the site, that my Silmarillion knowledge has grown a little rusty (a lot, actually). But the first thing that came to mind was that Sauron might have chuckled this line as he tossed Beren into his dungeons. Perhaps there are more specific examples that this quote points to, but this is all I could come up with. btw... this looks to be another clever game. I am seriously considering breaking all of these games out into their own forum here at the Barrow-Downs (A new categery, each type of game with its own forum). What fo you all think of that idea? mailto:barrow-wight@kitgraphics.comThe Barrow-Wight</a> http://www.barrowdowns.comThe Barrow-Downs</a></p>

And breaking the games up wouldn´t do any harm, I rather think it will - at least sooner or later -be inevitable. (btw, I "borrowed" my quote from "Nightfall in Middle-Earth" by Blind Guardian, where Morgoth says it - sounds really cool, because the speakers in the "interludii" are experienced Shakespeare-actors from England) </p>Edited by <A HREF=http://pub12.ezboard.com/usharku.showPublicProfile>Sharku</A> at: 6/24/00 9:56:57 am |

Had Aragorn and the others seen him leave, they could have persuaded him to stay, and things would have gone a totally different course. But I don´t think this solution is perfect. </p> |

I even think that Fangorn could have said it to the Hobbits - he would have changed his mind not to help them were there too many hasty little creatures (and when he says "I" he means both Treebeard himself and the whole forest); and he himself, as the whole entity of the Forest of Fangorn, would have been changed because of more "intruders", tramnpling, or unintentionally hurting the trees. And the quote is a good one - not too explicit, and of the kind which evokes associations in the reader. This is the essence of this game IMO. </p>Edited by <A HREF=http://pub12.ezboard.com/usharku.showPublicProfile>Sharku</A> at: 6/24/00 5:41:43 pm |

I was confused because I had read the other post a few hours before. So in my head they ran together and I thought that someone (or me) had already submitted that answer to your post. I was mostly just talking aloud to myself trying to figure it out. Perhaps I should just shut up and give a quasi-quote. Who might have said:         "Oh god, was that something moving by the hedge? Oh! The gate! Very quietly now, easy, bolt the door..." -galpsi </p> |

I don't know that the hobbits practiced any kind of religion, though, having inheirited so much tradition from the Northern Kingdom, they probably venerated the Eldar, the Valar and Iluvatar (or whatever vague notion they still held of those icons) Anyways.... let me think of a quote....hmmm Who might have said .... <blockquote>Quote:<hr> You don't say!? Full of gold? And nothing but a bunch of tunnel-rats? Time for a warmer climate.<hr></blockquote> ...and what were the circumstances? mailto:barrow-wight@kitgraphics.comThe Barrow-Wight</a> http://www.barrowdowns.comThe Barrow-Downs</a></p>
