LOTR anagrams!

[IronParrot]

Here's some... keep in mind I didn't make all of these up (I'm not THAT good)...

"Ent, Master of the Forest" = "affront threesome test"
"Lord of the Rings" = "fire stronghold"
"The One Ring" = "ere nothing"
"The Silmarillion" = "millionth serial"
"Tom Bombadil" = "bimodal tomb"

More on the way...

[gatito]

Hey IP,

These are kinda cool :) But why not just giving us the anagram and having us guess what word they are from. I think it would be fun.

[IronParrot]

Sure thing...

Here's one from a character name: "Allied gay lard"

[bmilder]

Hehe. This is a little different, but you know that poem about the rings?
3 for Elves
7 for dwarves
9 for men
1 to rule them all

Look at it backwards: 1973, Tolkien's year of death! Creepy, huh? ;)

[IronParrot]

WHOA!

[gatito]

Is it Lady Galadriel? I am not even sure if Lady is supposed to be in front of Galadriel. But that is what I came up with.

[Darth Tater]

gatito, that's what I think too.

[IronParrot]

Yep, it's Lady Galadriel.

Another character... "Burnt arbiter album"

[anduin]

Hey Ben, I know I saw that the other day somewhere....where did you get it from?

[bmilder]

Someone posted it at andustar's board.

[anduin]

Weird, I don't think it was there.....oh well :)

[noldo]

Iron, is it Barliman Butterbur?

[gatito]

I couldn't get that one :) . More IP

[IronParrot]

Yep, it's Barliman Butterbur.

Here's another one... a place...

"Hit-run logic" (don't do this while driving)

[Sharku]

Cirith Ungol?

[The One Ring]

Of course, don't forget our hero, "Food: bring gas", aka "Gas bod of ring", and his faithful companion, no doubt a relative of Jar-Jar Binks, "Mesa am egg". With their two comrades, "Cranky dumb berry" and "I pop ink pot", and led by the brave "Rang oar", along with the wise "Lad fang", accompanied by "Rib room", "Log sale", and last but not least, a poor dwarf whose name couldn't be made into any sort of anagram. These made up the "We poll fish", the brave census takers who risked everything to destroy the "Neon Rig".

[IronParrot]

Yes, it's Cirith Ungol.

"Food: bring gas" = Frodo Baggins
"Mesa am egg" = Sam Gamgee
"Cranky dumb berry" = Merry Brandybuck :lol
"I pop ink pot" = Pippin Took
"Rang oar" = Aragorn
"Lad fang" = Gandalf
"Rib room" = ?
"Log sale" = Legolas :lol
"We poll fish" = ?
"Neon rig" = One Ring

Where's Gimli?

[arynetrek]

"rib room" - Boromir
"we poll fish" - Fellowship

as for Gimli, i can't think of anythign to do with his name. anyone?

here's a few -
- "sami dril" (place)
- "maze held kar" (place? thing?)
- "rat fly botge" (person)

OK, that's enough...

aryne *

[RKittle]

sami dril = Imladris
maze held kar = Kheledzaram
rat fly botge = Fatty Bolger

[bmilder]

Here's some stupid ones I made up...

Character:
Hal met the beers

Character:
Living for a leech, my mod

[bmilder]

Aw, no one wants to guess :(
And those nasssty Barrow-wights, they've stolen our game!! ;) :p :lol:

[noldo]

I tried to solve them! I really did! How about giving us a hint?

I even thought the first one was Lord of... something. What is it?!

[IronParrot]

I'm still working on these too...

[bmilder]

Ok Ok ;)

I really hope I didn't leave out any essential letters this time :p

Hal met the beers was not alive during the events of LotR, he was only mentioned

Living for a leech, my mod is the official title of someone.

[IronParrot]

Umm... "Hal met the beers" is Elbereth something... hold on...

[IronParrot]

Oh wait, "he"? Back to square one.

"Living for a leech, my mod" - I can't get beyond "lord of" either. Ben, are you sure these work?

[bmilder]

Yes. I'll give the answers since I don't want to hold up the game :p

The first one is MALBETH THE SEER.

The second one is MAYOR OF MICHEL DELVING.

[IronParrot]

Try these - they're easy.

Character: "Think role adhesion"
Character: "The rebel"
Character: "Afghan genetic summit"

[noldo]

Bummer!!!

I almost got the 'Mayor of Michel Delving'!

[bmilder]

Your second one is Elbereth. I'll work on the others...

[bmilder]

The first one is Thorin Oakenshield.

Hmm, is the third one "SATANIC GENE FIGHT MUM"? ;)
I'll work on a better solution for that one :p

[RKittle]

Afghan genetic summit = SMAUG THE MAGNIFICENT

[bmilder]

Ohh... no wonder I couldn't find it in the LotR Index :p

Here's another dumb one:

PLUS A MEDIOCRE LOG HUNT

[IronParrot]

Yep, Smaug is right.

Now, in that last one... I see "Denethor" and "Gondor" and such in it, but you can't make any sense from the rest of the letters...

[bmilder]

Look to my icon for a hint ;)

[noldo]

Gollum the ludicrous!!! :evil: :evil: :evil:

Nah, just kidding... These things give me a head-ache...

[IronParrot]

"Gollum had the precious"

[bmilder]

Basically. I believe the original was "Gollum and the precious" but I won't be picky :p

[noldo]

So you basically mean I got it right? ;) ;) :evil:

[IronParrot]

Here's another set of characters - they are all of the same race... that's your hint...

"Regard fry forgettable"
"Lift with wool"
"Slight backlog evasion"
"Homemade gargle gaff"
"Nasty demand"
"Sank aboard boot"

[noldo]

Is the 5th one "Ted Sandyman"?

How about the 3rd one? Is it "Sackville-Baggins"?

[bmilder]

I think there's a mistake with Homemade gargle gaff

I got Holmad Gaffer Gamgee when I think his name was Holman... unless I did it wrong

[Bullroarer]

God Rags Bing

(Missing:G)

[IronParrot]

The fifth one is "Ted Sandyman".

noldo, your other one was DEAD close, and so was yours, Ben... think about it for a moment...

Bullroarer, which one are you referring to?

[IronParrot]

Nobody go to the Barrow-Downs! Sharku over there has already solved the six I gave you guys here...

[bmilder]

Ok then it's Ham Gamgee, Old Gaffer

or some combo of those words.

Hmm... I was able to successfully take out "Sackville Baggins" from the third one and was left with "h t o o"

Maybe I did it wrong

[IronParrot]

You're missing the overly obvious.

[RKittle]

H-Too Sackville-Baggins, Lobelia's nephew ;)

[bmilder]

Ok, so I'm an idiot :p
I realize now who H-Too is ;)

[Bullroarer]

Otho Sackville-Baggins

[arynetrek]

hey! i'm here & it's not the middle of the night!

#2- Will Whitfoot

these were already answered, i think
#3- Otho Sackville-Baggins
#4- Old Ham Gaffer Gamgee
#5- Ted Sandyman

On both of these there's one letter left over - am i anywhere near right?
#1- Fredegar Fatty Bolger?
#6- Bandobras Took?

[IronParrot]

There isn't one letter left over. You just left out one letter in your answer.

Yes, they're all right.

[arynetrek]

i just looked them up, & i spelled both of them right -
?????????????????

aryne *

[IronParrot]

That's strange... that's not supposed to happen.

I'll check it out for myself later on...

[mhomer4]

Golf lingo I'm so in - Guess

Gleam so, gas mole - Work it out
I'm be quack

Work them out.

[juntel]

last two - Numenor

[mhomer4]

Those weren't too hard. The rest are a little more challenging.
Wait, I'll tell you what kind each is (ie person/place):
Gimli son of Gloin - good work!

[noldo]

One of them is "Quickbeam".

[mhomer4]

But which one?

Good work, galpsi!
