Where Am I - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Gil-Galad · 07-04-2004, 04:44 PM

okay! it is basically like who am I, but instead you have to describe a place!

you can use anything for it, events, people, landscape etc.

In the land of the swift, gift it was, to allies of old, they ride to battle, they ride to ruin! Where am I?

pretty easy

Mad Baggins · 07-04-2004, 08:27 PM

Rohan, of course!

Gil-Galad · 07-04-2004, 10:31 PM

but of course! your go mr. baggins, make me proud!

Gil-Galad · 07-05-2004, 02:50 PM

*bump*

Gil-Galad · 07-05-2004, 10:19 PM

double *bump*

Gil-Galad · 07-08-2004, 08:50 PM

Mr.Mad Baggins?!?!? hello!

Mad Baggins · 07-08-2004, 08:55 PM

So sorry!

Another easy one...

Unwanting to accept its rightful leader, a city that wanes but then is renewed.

If someone answers and I don't reply before Saturday, the thread is free because I'm going to be gone for six weeks.

Gil-Galad · 07-08-2004, 08:58 PM

Minas Tirith?

wilwarin538 · 07-09-2004, 11:45 AM

Edoras?

Mad Baggins · 07-09-2004, 01:25 PM

Gil-Galad has it!

Gil-Galad · 07-09-2004, 04:59 PM

righti'o!

In the teeth of hell lies the ashes, and dust, and amid them is the duece of death...Where Am I

Elwe Singollo · 07-10-2004, 03:29 AM

Well 'Teeth of Hell' makes me think of the Black Gate (Narchost and Carchost). So I'll go with that.

Gil-Galad · 07-10-2004, 09:32 AM

good guess but sorry no, hint: this place was created by evil

Firefoot · 07-10-2004, 09:34 AM

The Gate of Angband?

Gil-Galad · 07-10-2004, 09:35 AM

close...but no your in the general area

Elwe Singollo · 07-10-2004, 03:06 PM

The Anfauglith?

Osse · 07-10-2004, 06:34 PM

Thangorodrim ?

Gil-Galad · 07-11-2004, 12:32 PM

Osse has it!

Elwe Singollo · 07-17-2004, 03:32 PM

Well since no one is going......

Place of death of the foamriders. Their vehicles of water here met their destroyers.

Where am I?

NightKnight · 07-17-2004, 04:05 PM

Pelori?

**The Saucepan Man** · 07-17-2004, 08:43 PM

What calendar are you using, Elwe?

The 10 days weren't up.

Osse has 4 days to ask the next question. If he doesn't, then carry on with Elwe's question.

Elwe Singollo · 07-19-2004, 10:45 AM

Oh sorry. I'm going by the English calender configuration. with the date first then month.

Elwe Singollo · 07-22-2004, 12:54 PM

Well now that the ten days are now up....my questions is active.

The Perky Ent · 07-22-2004, 04:00 PM

Pelori?

Osse · 07-22-2004, 10:24 PM

Um... it seems I have missed my question, despite SpM giving me such a courteous respite! (That will teach me to answer correctly in too many places at once and then forget which ones!

)

In answer to the question is it: Alqualondë ?

Fingolfin II · 07-23-2004, 12:54 AM

Losgar?

Elwe Singollo · 07-25-2004, 12:01 PM

Thinking along the right lines Fingolfin but not right.

The Perky Ent · 07-25-2004, 12:06 PM

Firth of Drengist?

Elwe Singollo · 07-26-2004, 02:24 AM

No

Osse · 07-26-2004, 03:54 AM

the havens of Umbar?

Elwe Singollo · 07-26-2004, 08:31 AM

Still no.

Looking back throught the posts, I realise when I read Osse's, I didn't read all of it.

It is Alqualonde so you Osse its your turn.

Sorry guys and girls.

Gil-Galad · 12-20-2004, 04:40 PM

*bump*

Osse?

AragornII · 02-15-2005, 07:42 PM

I thought this was kind of easy but...

Though shrouded in darkness, the immortal live here, alongside creatures of evil. Don't stray from my path or touch my waters, or you might not come out... where am I?

Okay so it doesn't sound like some of the others, but it works.

arcticstorm · 02-15-2005, 08:55 PM

mirkwood

AragornII · 02-15-2005, 09:08 PM

Yup! Your turn arcticstorm.

AragornII · 02-22-2005, 07:34 PM

You have three more days arcticstorm. Hurry up.

AragornII · 02-27-2005, 07:53 PM

In the darkness beneath the earth, two evil things dwell here. Where am I?

Gil-Galad · 02-27-2005, 08:05 PM

Moria?

AragornII · 02-27-2005, 10:19 PM

Good guess(I didn't even think of that

) but no.

arcticstorm · 04-29-2005, 10:26 AM
