O.K., thanks Udu.

Where was it that Merry said was the centre from which all the queerness comes? As it were? :D ;)

[Gordis]

Withywindle valley?

[Lotesse]

Yes, Gordis; correct. My bad for holding you up for two days, usually that never happens. :o

[Gordis]

No problem, Lotesse :)

My next question:

Whose traces have Aragorn and the hobbits detected in the dell at Weathertop?

[Telcontar_Dunedain]

Gandalfs.

[Gordis]

Not only his, TD. Please, provide a complete answer. :)

[Telcontar_Dunedain]

Ok, Gandalf and his fight with the Nazgûl.

[Gordis]

Sorry, but no, TD.

I meant several groups of people the traces of whose presence were detectable in the grassy DELL at Weathertop

Yes, one was Gandalf
Who else?

[Telcontar_Dunedain]

The Nazgûl?

[Gordis]

You are almost there, TD. :)

1.Gandalf (the remnants of the recent fire)
2. Nazgul - footprints of heavy boots
3. ???

[Farimir Captain of Gondor]

You are almost there, TD. :)

1.Gandalf (the remnants of the recent fire)
2. Nazgul - footprints of heavy boots
3. ???

I'm going to take a guess and if I'm right I think the next question should go to TD seeing he got most of it first. :)

Is it the wood left behind by the Rangers?

[Gordis]

Yes, exactly, now all the three answers are there.

Next question!

[Telcontar_Dunedain]

I'm going to take a guess and if I'm right I think the next question should go to TD seeing he got most of it first. :)
No no. You got the last part so you go. :)

[Farimir Captain of Gondor]

No no. You got the last part so you go. :)

Well thank you TD :D . Okay, if i ask a question already asked you'll have to forgive me. :)

Who is it that ask to hear more about Gil-galad?

[durinsbane2244]

the hobbits...

[Farimir Captain of Gondor]

the hobbits...

Close ;)

[Farimir Captain of Gondor]

Well thank you TD :D . Okay, if i ask a question already asked you'll have to forgive me. :)

Who is it that ask to hear more about Gil-galad?

Now that I read it the question is a little vague so I'll rephrase:

Who tells Sam to sing more about Gil-galad?

[Telcontar_Dunedain]

Merry.

[Farimir Captain of Gondor]

Merry.

You are correct TD. Only right you get to ask the next question considering I pretty much stole the last one from you. :p :D

[Telcontar_Dunedain]

What does Frodo think is not quite the right word?

[mithrand1r]

What does Frodo think is not quite the right word?

I think "spy" is not the right word.

[Telcontar_Dunedain]

Nope.

[Serenoli]

'fond' is not the right word... when describing how he feels about Strider.

[Telcontar_Dunedain]

Correct

[Serenoli]

Who went to find the Sun?

[Gordis]

Legolas

[Serenoli]

You have found your answer, whether or not Legolas found his Sun! May I trouble you to ask the next question? :)

[Gordis]

Thanks, Serenoli. No trouble at all.

What two villages were situated just East of Bree?

[Udukhaturz]

Combe and Staddle

[Gordis]

Yes. Now that I think better about it, there was also a third one - Archet.

Your question, Udu!

[Udukhaturz]

The pillars of the First Hall of Moria were carved in what design?

[Gordis]

"They were carved like boles of mighty trees whose boughs upheld the roof with a branching tracery of stone. Their stems were smooth and black, but a red glow was darkly mirrored in their sides."
That must be it, unless it is the wrong Hall...

[Udukhaturz]

Gordis, that is correct. Yours is the next question to ask.

[Gordis]

According to Merry, what (who) was Bilbo's downfall? :)

[Acalewia]

The Sacksville-Bagginses?

[Gordis]

Correct. Your turn, Acalewia!

BTW, I like your avvie... :) So much better than the old one.

[Acalewia]

Thanx, Gordis

Who is an Elf-friend of the folk of Westernesse and has the favor of Galadriel?

[mithrand1r]

Thanx, Gordis

Who is an Elf-friend of the folk of Westernesse and has the favor of Galadriel?

Gimli.

[Gordis]

Aragorn. (though he mostly has the favor of Arwen? :p )

[Acalewia]

Gordis got it! True but I was quoting :D Ur go!

[Gordis]

From the summit of Weathertop, Strider and hobbits were witnessing the meeting of the Black Riders down on the road.
How many there were and from what direction were they coming?

[Spock]

Two were going west while three were going east.

[Gordis]

Correct. Your turn.

[Spock]

Who said..."No one ever has luck in there"?

[Gandalfthegray]

Elrond

[Telcontar_Dunedain]

Fatty Bolger.

[Spock]

Fatty Bolger.


Well yes he was *called* that but I had hoped for his actual name.

Since it was my fault, you can post the next question. :)

[Telcontar_Dunedain]

Fredegar. ;)

What had Aragorn planned to do with his sword?

[Spock]

beat it into a plow share....oh no that's the Christian thing to do :D

sorry couldn't resist.

[Spock]

HEY GUYS 3 DAYS , 72 HRS. no one guessed yed :(

[durinsbane2244]

take it to minas tirith?

[Telcontar_Dunedain]

Soory for the delay. DB, you are close but there is a specific phrase which he said that I am looking for.

[Spock]

HEY GUYS- five days (5) and no answer and no new question......someone please post :)

[Spock]

How about a minorly difficult one:

Who said "Oh! That was poetry"
and
in relation to what.

YESSSSSSSSSSSS a two parter :p

[Spock]

IN VIEW OF THE LACK OF INTEREST IN THIS TOPIC, I'LL TEMPORARILY CLOSE THIS TOPIC.

for a time



THEN WE CAN START FRESH AFTER A TIME.


**temporarily closed**

[Meriadoc Brandybuck]

How about a minorly difficult one:

Who said "Oh! That was poetry"
and
in relation to what.

YESSSSSSSSSSSS a two parter :p
Pippin in relation to starting early the next morning? :)

[Spock]

Pippin in relation to starting early the next morning? :)

Yes, that and the song based upon one Bilbo had done up which Frodo had just recited.

Your go Meriadoc!
:cool:

[Meriadoc Brandybuck]

:)
What did Merry say (that he didn't remember saying) to Nob after Nob found him lying on the Road in Bree?

[Spock]

It's just a flesh wound.


................nit..............nit :p

[Serenoli]

I thought I had fallen into deep water.

[Meriadoc Brandybuck]

Incorrect, Spock! :p
I thought I had fallen into deep water.
Yes. ;)

[Serenoli]

Here's my question:

Caution is one thing. What is another?

I may not be here to tell the answer, so here it is: (don't cheat!)

wavering... according to Strider, anyways

[Spock]

Well, no one has cheated and no one has guessed. So how about a new question....since no one is/has been around, I give it a shot:

"What would Sam have liked to have gotten instructions on"?

[Udukhaturz]

Making Elven ropes?

[Spock]

Making Elven ropes?

WELL I AM HAPPY TO ANNOUNCE YOU HAVE IT......IN ONE OF THE SHORTEST PERIODS OF TIME ON RECORD.

HOORAY

You go! :D

and now I'm off to watch Dr. Who.

[Udukhaturz]

*pats myself on the back*

What did Old Man Willow threaten to do to the hobbits if Sam set him on fire?

[Farimir Captain of Gondor]

*pats myself on the back*

What did Old Man Willow threaten to do to the hobbits if Sam set him on fire?

He threatened to squeeze one of the hobbits in two. I think it was Merry. :confused:

[Udukhaturz]

That is correct. You get to ask the next question.

[Farimir Captain of Gondor]

Who does Elrond reward for his cheek and what was the reward?

[Telcontar_Dunedain]

Sam and by sending him with Frodo.

[Farimir Captain of Gondor]

Sam and by sending him with Frodo.
Yep. Your go. :)

[Telcontar_Dunedain]

What does Sauron not yet know?

[Acalewia]

the Sword That Was Broken has been reforged? :confused:

[Telcontar_Dunedain]

Nope.

[durinsbane2244]

er...who has the ring? where it is? that they mean to destroy it? the sqaure root of pie?

[Telcontar_Dunedain]

Not the answer I'm looking for.

[Farimir Captain of Gondor]

Shot in the dark: That the heir of Elendil has come forth?

[Telcontar_Dunedain]

Nope. One of DB's answers was close.

[Acalewia]

They mean to destroy the Ring?

[Telcontar_Dunedain]

Nope.

[Acalewia]

The square root of pi? :D j/k
Where the Ring is?

[Telcontar_Dunedain]

Nope. Your thinking along the right lines but your own the wrong track.

[Farimir Captain of Gondor]

I was thinkin it was pi too, but; I thought he didn't know how to make an apple pie. :D
I'm going to go with: Who is in possession of the Ring.

[Telcontar_Dunedain]

Still no, but that is the closest anyone has come so far.

[Acalewia]

What creature is in possesion of the Ring?

[Spock]

What does Sauron not yet know?

That the ring is being brought to Mordor for destruction by Frodo?

[durinsbane2244]

a hobbit has the ring? [same as alcalewia, she can have it if right]

[Telcontar_Dunedain]

Still no.

[durinsbane2244]

hm...they are in a fellowship led by gandalf? what MANNER of creature is in posession of the ring? the possesor doesn't want to use it?

[Telcontar_Dunedain]

Nope. I'll give it another 48 hours. If no one has given the correct answer by then, I'll ask someone else to post a question.

[Gordis]

Sauron suspects but does not know that Galadriel has Nenya?

[Telcontar_Dunedain]

Correct. Your go Gordis.

[Gordis]

Incredible! It was just out of my head! :) By the way, I remembered it because of its weirdness. Really, couldn't Sauron put 2 and 2 together? :rolleyes: Of course Gasladriel had the Ring! How else would she make an enchanted realm? :D

Ok, next question.

What is the same in the Shire and in Wilderland, or ought to be?

[Spock]

HEY, 4 days and no one has answered :eek: .....................perhaps a new question :confused:

[Telcontar_Dunedain]

Oh, the moon?

[Gordis]

:) :) :)
Yes, the fair Ithil. ;)

Your turn, TD!

[Telcontar_Dunedain]

Ok, an easy one. Name the all the gifts that Galadriel gave to the Fellowship.

[Udukhaturz]

A sheath for Andúril and the Elfstone for Aragorn (although it could be argued that the latter was given by Arwen); a golden belt for Boromir; silver belts to Merry and Pippin; to Legolas a bow and quiver; to Sam a box of dirt; three of her hairs for Gimli; a crystal phial for Frodo.

[durinsbane2244]

all that plus a mallorn seed for sam, and technically, they clothed gandalf in white...

[Udukhaturz]

There would also be food and drink. What about that rope that Sam had, and the elven cloaks? What else did those freeloaders get? *grins*

[Telcontar_Dunedain]

Those freeloaders took a little bit more.

[Udukhaturz]

Another gift from "Galadriel's Free Soup Kitchen and Hand-Me-Down Store" was lembas.

[Farimir Captain of Gondor]

I guess the broaches would count too. And the boats. And a place to sleep.

[Acalewia]

And the cloaks

[Udukhaturz]

Yes, those boats... I can see a sign, "Galadriel's Outfitters - We supply everything for camping, hunting, boating and fishing trips. See us first for all your camping needs."

[Gordis]

:eek: :D :D

[Udukhaturz]

Now we need to get TD to come back and rule on who gets to ask the next question. I would rather that someone else get the honor. :)

[Telcontar_Dunedain]

Acally got the last part so it is your go.

[durinsbane2244]

someone though...please...go....

[Acalewia]

O sorry guys.

What did Sam see in the Mirrior of Galadriel?

[Sam]

The Shire?

[durinsbane2244]

more specifically, the shire being burned and bashed and such, and his ol' gaffer turned out o' bagshot row! and i think maybe bagshot row dug up...

[Telcontar_Dunedain]

And Frodo 'asleep' leaning on a rock.

[Acalewia]

TD got the rest of it.
Your go

[Telcontar_Dunedain]

What is written upon Elrond's face?

[Spock]

Five days and my tired brain and sleepy eyes still don't know the answer. :(

[Telcontar_Dunedain]

Well in that case you can go Spock.

[Spock]

After Gildor gave advice; how soon could the new group get moving?

hope this isn't too vague

[Telcontar_Dunedain]

The next morning?

[Spock]

sorry, nope :)

[Telcontar_Dunedain]

Oh, they could be off in one hour.

[Spock]

Oh, they could be off in one hour.

YES! :)

[Telcontar_Dunedain]

What were orcs issuing out of?

[Acalewia]

Isengard?

[Telcontar_Dunedain]

Nope.

[Gordis]

Caves of Misty Mountains?

[Telcontar_Dunedain]

Not specifically caves, but Misty Mountains is correct. Your go Gor.

[Gordis]

Thanks, TD. :)

"Long tales are ... what?"

[Telcontar_Dunedain]

Not known to many?

[Gordis]

nope! :)

[Spock]

Four days and no correct answer. :(

[Gordis]

Long tales are thirsty! :) :p
Whoever feels like it, ask a new question :)

[durinsbane2244]

alright then, what was gandalf's touch in the river?

[Telcontar_Dunedain]

The white horse in flood.

[durinsbane2244]

and?

[Sam]

the white riders on the horses backs?

[durinsbane2244]

and?

[Sam]

White flames?

[durinsbane2244]

nope

[Sam]

boulders?

[mithrand1r]

and?

The sounds of horses with the images of white horses. ;)

[durinsbane2244]

sam got it, the rolling boulders! go...

[Sam]

What is the name of the chamber in which Balin's tomb is kept.

[mithrand1r]

What is the name of the chamber in which Balin's tomb is kept.

IIRC, it is the Chamber of Mazarbul.

[Sam]

Right you are mithrand1r, it is now your turn.

[mithrand1r]

Right you are mithrand1r, it is now your turn.

Thanks.

Where did Sam first see Anarion?

[Spock]

Thanks.

Where did Sam first see Anarion?

Most curious. Denethor was the Steward of the House of Anarion.

Anarion defended Osgiliath and later fought with the Last Alliance as they attacked Mordor.

If so, then Sam could not have met him in "TFOTR" book. :confused:

[Telcontar_Dunedain]

Argonath?

[mithrand1r]

Argonath?

Correct.

I was hoping it would be a challenging question. Two days till a reply is hopefully a good sign that the question was a good challenge.

Your turn.

[Spock]

TD is great with coming up with obscure stuff. I racked my tiny brain and couldn't remember nor find it anywhere. GOOD GOING TD! :)

[Telcontar_Dunedain]

Thanks Spock.

What did Frodo feel caught between?

[Acalewia]

a rock and a hard place :D

[Telcontar_Dunedain]

Nope.

[durinsbane2244]

hm...i know it's when he is speared by the orc chieftan...hammer and anvil? i believe so...

[Telcontar_Dunedain]

You believe right. Your go DB.

[durinsbane2244]

righto...where does aragorn seem to look into the distance and see something that wasn't there?

[Telcontar_Dunedain]

Cerin Amroth.

[durinsbane2244]

right you are and quick about it, too!

[Telcontar_Dunedain]

Quick one. What did he say to the 'invisible' figure?

[durinsbane2244]

hm...if only i had my book here...i suppose it was someone wearing the ring...

[Telcontar_Dunedain]

No, he was recalling something that had happened 38 years ago. :)

[durinsbane2244]

hm...that's gotta be around...2970ish...so he was probably talking about arwen...huh...i SHOULD go get my book...

[Telcontar_Dunedain]

He was, but what did he say?

[durinsbane2244]

again...i SHOULD go get my book...i do have backround though :rolleyes: ;)

[Acalewia]

I though I strayed into a dream?

[Telcontar_Dunedain]

Nope.

HINT: It's not in Common Speech.

[durinsbane2244]

Arwen vanimelda, namarie!

[Telcontar_Dunedain]

Correct, your go DB.

[durinsbane2244]

righto...of whom do harpers sadly sing?

[Telcontar_Dunedain]

Gil-galad.

[durinsbane2244]

two mintues this time...age creeping up on you, TD? :p take it away...

[Telcontar_Dunedain]

What did Merry and Pippin call farewell to?

[durinsbane2244]

hm...the shire?

[Telcontar_Dunedain]

Nope.

[durinsbane2244]

hm...lorien than?

[Telcontar_Dunedain]

Nope.

[durinsbane2244]

rivendell?!?!

[mithrand1r]

What did Merry and Pippin call farewell to?

Elevenses. ;)

Actually, I think it was each other.

[Telcontar_Dunedain]

Nope, nope and nope.

[durinsbane2244]

hearth and home? [wasn't that one of the songs? they based it off the dwarve's song for bilbo]

[Telcontar_Dunedain]

Well done, your go DB.

[durinsbane2244]

farewell we call, to hearth and hall? i suppose so...pressing on than...where does bilbo sit and think?

[Telcontar_Dunedain]

By the fire.

[durinsbane2244]

indeed...a wonderful poem...your go, than.

[Telcontar_Dunedain]

According to Bilbo, what did Gandalf pass off?

[jammi567]

a brilliant flash :eek: ... :D (of light at his birthday party)

[Telcontar_Dunedain]

Nope.

[Spock]

taking the ring?

[Telcontar_Dunedain]

Nope

[jammi567]

most of his knowledge to the free peoples of middle earth.

[Telcontar_Dunedain]

Nope.

[mithrand1r]

According to Bilbo, what did Gandalf pass off?

His Grey Cloak and sunny personality. ;)

[durinsbane2244]

a good guess, but this needs to be re-awakened...

[Acalewia]

8 DAYS! Gheez I'm starting to sound like Spock :o :D

[durinsbane2244]

lol...is that a bad thing? that's completely illogical! :rolleyes:

[Telcontar_Dunedain]

Nothing correct so somebody else can post a question.

[durinsbane2244]

well, i just did the TT and RotK, so i won't do this too...

[mithrand1r]

Nothing correct so somebody else can post a question.

Since noone else volunteered, I'll put a question forward.

Who was surprised by what he saw under a tree?

I am thinking of a specific individual.

[Telcontar_Dunedain]

Sam?

[mithrand1r]

Sam?

Good guess, but no.

[Sam]

Merry?

[mithrand1r]

Merry?

Another good guess, but no. This is not the individual that I am looking for.

[Serenoli]

Pippin, perhaps?

[mithrand1r]

Pippin, perhaps?

Another good guess, but no. This is not the individual that I am looking for.

Hint: This does not occur in book 2.

[jammi567]

Frodo?

[mithrand1r]

Frodo?

Sorry, that is not correct.

[mithrand1r]

Since noone else volunteered, I'll put a question forward.

Who was surprised by what he saw under a tree?

I am thinking of a specific individual.

Another hint.

This event occurs before the hobbits enter the OLD FOREST.

[mithrand1r]

Since noone else volunteered, I'll put a question forward.

Who was surprised by what he saw under a tree?

I am thinking of a specific individual.


The answer that I was looking for is the fox.
It is from when the hobbits first started their journey from Bag End.

"Hobbits!" he thought. "Well, what next? I have heard of strange doings in this land, but I have seldom heard of a hobbit sleeping out of doors under a tree. Three of them! There's something mighty queer behind this." He was quite right, but he never found out any more about it.

I took the text's use of exclamation points to impy surprise on the part of the fox.


Anyone else may ask the next question.

p=751

[Spock]

apparently "anyone" hasn't been around for five days :eek:

[mithrand1r]

apparently "anyone" hasn't been around for five days :eek:

I probably should have ask anybody do ask the next question. ;)

Meanwhile, in San Francisco the following story was over heard . . .
================================================== ====
This is a little story about four people named Everybody, Somebody, Anybody, and Nobody.

There was an important job to be done and Everybody was sure that Somebody would do it.

Anybody could have done it, but Nobody did it.

Somebody got angry about that because it was Everybody's job.

Everybody thought that Anybody could do it, but Nobody realized that Everybody wouldn't do it.

It ended up that Everybody blamed Somebody when Nobody did what Anybody could have done

[durinsbane2244]

er....*hopes that was a question*...er...THE BELGIAN CONGO!

[mithrand1r]

er....*hopes that was a question*...er...THE BELGIAN CONGO!

No question. Just a humorous story I'm sharing with all till the next question:

Since Nobody ;) asked the last question:

What was Frodo warned against touching?

[Farimir Captain of Gondor]

I liked that story. :)

What was Frodo warned against touching?

Galadrial's mirror.

[mithrand1r]

I liked that story. :)



Galadrial's mirror.

Correct. Your turn.

I am glad you enjoyed the story.
(I wish I could claim credit for it, but I heard it years ago and I recently found it posted on the Internet.)

===============================================
Bonus Math for anyone interested.

For Right Traingles

SOH-CAH-TOA

SOH = Sine is the Opposite over the Hypotenuse. (Sin = Opp/Hyp)

CAH = Cosine is the Adjacent over the Hypotenuse. (Cos = Adj/Hyp)

TOA = Tangent is the Opposite over the Adjacent. (Tan = Opp/Adj)

http://home.xnet.com/~fidler/triton/math/review/mat114/right/right1.gif
For angle A:

Sin = a/c
Cos = b/c
Tan = a/b

Tan = Sin/Cos = (a/c)/(b\c) = a\b

PS: is there a way to get an image posted without using the link location of the image? (You may pm me if you do not want to post this in the tread.)

[Farimir Captain of Gondor]

Yeah, I've heard the story before too. It's a good one.

If the hobbits went in the order of eldest or quickest in their baths, who would be last?

[Acalewia]

Pippen

[Farimir Captain of Gondor]

Correct you are Acally. Your turn.

[Acalewia]

How did Aragorn know Underhill wasn't Frodo's name?

[durinsbane2244]

er, didn't pippin let it slip? trying to remember if it was just the movie or not...

[Acalewia]

Nope.

[durinsbane2244]

hm...does he confront him after the song incident?

[mithrand1r]

How did Aragorn know Underhill wasn't Frodo's name?

He overheard the hobbits speaking before they entered Bree about how they must leave the name of Baggins behind. If a name must be used it should be Underhill. Gandalf also told Arragorn to be on the lookout for hobbits using the name of Underhill.

(I am paraphrasing here since I cannot remember the exact quote at the momment.)

[Acalewia]

You got it, mith. Your go!

[mithrand1r]

You got it, mith. Your go!

Thanks.

What left Merry shaken during an evening stroll?

[durinsbane2244]

seeing a dark figure, and i believe he was hit with the black breath?

[mithrand1r]

seeing a dark figure, and i believe he was hit with the black breath?

correct.

your turn.

[durinsbane2244]

ah, i'd forgotten to check. er...how many weapons does aragorn wield, and name them.

[Sam]

2, sword and bow?

[durinsbane2244]

not quite...

[Acalewia]

Sword, bow, knife? 3?
Unless you count feet and hands then that would be 7 :p



*pounces on rule like a cat out of hell*

[mithrand1r]

ah, i'd forgotten to check. er...how many weapons does aragorn wield, and name them.

I will guess one,

A broken sword named Narsil.

[durinsbane2244]

acalewia has all but one...

[jammi567]

sure, it's not perniment, but he does wield fire when the nazgul attacked on weathertop.

[durinsbane2244]

right you are jammi! ok, so i'm picky, i don't care! take 'er away, jam-man-bam-slam-ham-sham-tram-ram-pam....*puts straight jacket back on* alright, just take me now...

[jammi567]

take 'er away, jam-man-bam-slam-ham-sham-tram-ram-pam....
Don't do that ever again, because i hate it when people do that to me... anyways, how does Frodo defeat the barrow-wight?

[durinsbane2244]

well...frodo calls Tom, and Tom takes him out...but how can you hate it when people do that? have other people done that? is that your real name or something? well...that was a spur-of-the-moment bit of insanity for me... :D :p ;)

[mithrand1r]

Don't do that ever again, because i hate it when people do that to me... anyways, how does Frodo defeat the barrow-wight?
With Tom Bomdabil's (sp?) help.

[durinsbane2244]

er....that's pretty much what i just said... :D

[jammi567]

well...frodo calls Tom, and Tom takes him out...but how can you hate it when people do that? have other people done that? is that your real name or something? well...that was a spur-of-the-moment bit of insanity for me... :D :p ;)
first part: no
second part: my real name is James, and people do that mainly to annoy me, and then i get pissed off at them for a while
third part: that's ok, just so long as it doesn't happen again (see above)

[Sam]

hmmm.... well. Frodo has the dream in which his three companions are on the ground with a sword across their necks. Then the big hand comes and i think frodo fights the hand off, although i probably am wrong, it has been a while since i last read FotR.
