I didn't get into playing this one, unfortunately, but if you want to make another one GW, you could always consult The Encyclopedia of Arda (http://www.glyphweb.com/Arda/default.asp). Players could then promise not to consult this site in their search for answers. :D

10-23-2006, 09:35 PM
Shoot, there go my sources. :rolleyes: :p

But seriously, I rather doubt they will have much that Foster doesn't.

Grey_Wolf
10-24-2006, 02:01 AM
Yes, and every entry in Foster's guide couldnt be clued anway. There were quite a few which were inordinately diffucult to do.

So, dear nurv, this is the end of the game.:)

It doesn't have to be locked, people should be still able to post their own cryptic descriptions for others to guess. I'm sure there must be some that Grey_wolf may have missed. And I don't think some words can't be repeated. The Quote game has been going on for quite a while and quotes have been repeated over time, the game doesn't suffer from it.

Grey_Wolf
10-25-2006, 04:31 AM
You're welcome, Sun-star.:)

Ok, Eärniel.:) That's allright. The game can go on, although not with my clueing from a book- or site-source.

Welcome in then, anyone who feels like continuing it.:)

Sorry, about that. I missplaced the Facit for the final clue (1.5) and couldnt for the life of me remember what he was called. So I erased it. Hope u dont mind.:)

Dear Gwai!

You were correct indeed in your guess on 1.5 - Z - It was Ar-Zamthrathon.

I Apologize - didnt mean to make such a mistake.

So I hope you'll forgive this momentary lapse.
