Thorin & Company at the Green Dragon Inn, Bywater?

[Last Child of Ungoliant]

[Count Comfect]

Okay, then, at the opening gathering of dwarves and Gandalf at Bilbo's hole, what is Gandalf offered to drink, and what does he ask for instead?

[Nerdanel]

He's offered tea and asks for wine? (I haven't got a clue)

[Count Comfect]

Hmmm, usually when I don't have a clue, I don't get it right.
You, however, did. Congrats!

[Nerdanel]

Yay!:D

I haven't read too much of the hobbit, I only started reading it a couple of days ago, but here's a question (hope no one has asked it within the 2 last pages;) ):

After the dwarves, Bilbo and Gandalf had left Rivendell, there was a thunderstorm. Who was/were sent to find a better place to spend the night?

[Last Child of Ungoliant]

fili and kili

[Nerdanel]

yep, your go!:)

[Last Child of Ungoliant]

When Gandalf bid the dwarves to come to
Beorn's house in pairs, who accompanied Thorin?

[Nerdanel]

[Last Child of Ungoliant]

[brownjenkins]

[Last Child of Ungoliant]

[Radagast The Brown]

What did Bilbo eat in their way from the Goblins in the mountains to the wolves after they climbed down the mountains?

[Nerdanel]

sorrel and 3 wild strawberries?

[Radagast The Brown]

I forgot my self. :p After a quick check - you're correct!

[Nerdanel]

cool.:)

who was the dwarf who visited Bilbo a few years after he had come home from the adventure?

[Radagast The Brown]

It was already asked, unfortunately (a few times :p). Balin.

[Nerdanel]

Oh darn.:rolleyes: (that one was for me:p )

but you're correct, of course.:)

[Radagast The Brown]

Who were ther most misreble after the escape from the Elves? (after the river)

[Nerdanel]

Wild guess: Turin?

[Radagast The Brown]

You mean Thorin. :) And no, it wasn't Thorin - and it was more than one. Actually 2.

[Nerdanel]

:D i'm soory. i'm really emptyheaded right now.


turin..lol!:D

new guess: dvalin and balin?
(of course it wasn't Thorin. i'm so stupid today. sorry.:D )

[Radagast The Brown]

:D i'm soory. i'm really emptyheaded right now.


turin..lol!:D

new guess: dvalin and balin?
(of course it wasn't Thorin. i'm so stupid today. sorry.:D )
That's ok. :p It happened to me too. :)

Yes, Balin and Dvalin. (Dwalin?) Your turn.

[Nerdanel]

the dwarves and Bilbo tried to haunt an animal, and succeeded, in the forest they travelled through. (what's it's name in English? mirkwood? :confused: )

anyway: what animal was it?

[Radagast The Brown]

Yes, Mirkwood. Was it a deer?

[Nerdanel]

that's not the animal i thought about.. they did try to shoot deer, but did they succeed? i don't remember.

anyway, it's another animal i thought of. :) but you might be right, i'm not sure.

[Radagast The Brown]

Hmmm.... yeah, think you're right. Squirrel then? Black squirrel?

[Nerdanel]

correct!:)

your turn.

[Radagast The Brown]

Ok. I'll post a new question tomorrow... need to goto sleep (and I'm sure you need some sleep too, Nerd [Heehee])

[Radagast The Brown]

How did Bilbo's hand-write looked like?

[Count Comfect]

Was his handwritting spidery?

[Radagast The Brown]

Yes. :p Your turn CC.

[Count Comfect]

How many lefts and rights does Gollum eventually count on the way out of his hole in the mountain?

[Radagast The Brown]

15?? (I had to make it for 4 characters... :rolleyes: )

[Count Comfect]

No, I'm looking for two numbers ("lefts" and "rights").

[Christiana]

:confused: 6 left, 7right?

[Count Comfect]

7 right, yes, 6 left, yes. Your go.

[Christiana]

ooh...lucky guess.

how many verses total do the elves in Rivendell sing to Bilbo?

[Halbarad of the Dunedain]

Is it five verses that start with "O! What are you Doing"!?

[Radagast The Brown]

Isn't it 4?

[Nerdanel]

Christiana? Or someone else, shouldn't we keep this thing going?:)

[Telcontar_Dunedain]

I've justlooked it up. It's 4.

[Nerdanel]

so it's you then, RtB!:)

[Radagast The Brown]

Great, but I don't have the hobbit right now. :( I will have it in two days if you can wait (after all you watied for a month or so. :p)

[Nerdanel]

ok then..;)

[Radagast The Brown]

What was the colour of the vessels where Beorn put the honey in, for the dwarves and hobbit for the journey in Mirkwood?

[Telcontar_Dunedain]

Red.

[Radagast The Brown]

Correct.

[Telcontar_Dunedain]

Which dwarf threw a rope over the boat in Mirkwood

[Radagast The Brown]

Fili?

[Telcontar_Dunedain]

Yep. Your up

[Radagast The Brown]

Whjat did the deer carried to the first meal in Beorn's house?

[Halbarad of the Dunedain]

Was it a mead of water?

[Radagast The Brown]

No. #

[Halbarad of the Dunedain]

I don't think there were deer at the dirst meal in Beorn's house. Horses carried Torches, sheep and a Ram carried silverware, the horses brought the chairs. the dogs placed everything. I dont recall the deer?

[Radagast The Brown]

I can't remember now. :D It was a long time ago. I'm sure there was a deer though. You can ask a new question now.

[Halbarad of the Dunedain]

How many times does Bilbo wish he was back at his home?

[mewhmag]

really trivia: can you imagine a favourite sport of hobbits?

it would be snooker, i am quite sure...

[Radagast The Brown]

3? Maybe?

[mewhmag]

hohum, just noticed that one has to ask trivia questions here...

(be patient with the newbie)

How many times does Bilbo wish he was back at his home?

8?

[Nerdanel]

How many times does Bilbo wish he was back at his home?
Could we please get the answer soon?^^

[Telcontar_Dunedain]

He hasn't been on in a while and nor has bookworm so I guess the question is up for grabs!

[Radagast The Brown]

I'll ask then... Who carried Bilbo in the mountains when the goblins chased the company? (full answer..)

[Haradrim]

Fili carried Bilbo in the mountain when the orcs were chasing them.

[ethuiliel]

I thought it was Dori... could be wrong, though. Or was it both?

[Haradrim]

Maybe it was Dori though I think it was Fili.

[Nurvingiel]

It was Dori, but Ethuiliel already got it. Dang it, I actually knew that one! :p

EDIT: Full answer? Is this... an essay question?

Dori was compelled to carry Bilbo in the goblin's cavern because he was, as Bilbo described, "a decent fellow". This is foreshadowing to later, when Dori again saves Bilbo's life.

etc. etc. :evil: :D

[Radagast The Brown]

I was talking about the chase in the mountains though... and yes, full answer. :p Dori and Fili are both wrong. :)

[Nurvingiel]

You're not referring to in the mountains, right after they escaped the goblin king? :confused:

[Telcontar_Dunedain]

Yeah because I was sure that was Dori. :confused:

[Radagast The Brown]

They escaped the Goblin King, then Dori carried him, yes. But then, they still had to run away of the goblins; Dori couldn't keep carrying him, so he switched.. ermmm... I'm looking for that.

[Telcontar_Dunedain]

Dwalin?

[Radagast The Brown]

That's not the answer to my question, no.

[Count Comfect]

Let us go dwarf-naming. Dori dropped him down to Gollum, but someone else carried him first... Ori?

[Radagast The Brown]

The answer is not Ori.

[Narsil's Master]

bombur did!!!!

[Radagast The Brown]

That's not the full answer, sorry. :) (you're somehow closer than others.)( you can check in the book if you want. I'll give the answer soon anyway if nobody answers correctly)

[Narsil's Master]

what do you mean by full answer? bombur picked up bilbo as they were fleeing the goblin hord. then he got into doris hands who in turn was grabbed by goblins, right when bilbo fell.

[Narsil's Master]

dori had him first....then bombur......then dori again

[Radagast The Brown]

The answer should've been all the dwarves, actually. As it is said that they swiched, all of them, IIRC. Although, only Bombur and Dori are mentioned in names; but probably all of them had, or at least most of them, if they gave Dori Bilbo again.

[Nerdanel]

so.. who's next?
