"Fellowship of the Ring" Trivia

[Rosie Gamgee]

"Do not meddle in the affairs of wizards, for they are subtle and quick to anger."

[Meriadoc Brandybuck]

Correct, ethuiliel. :)

[ethuiliel]

Ok, um...
What was the first thing Glorfindel said after Strider/Aragorn showed him the morgul blade?

[Radagast The Brown]

That evil things are written on it?

[ethuiliel]

Almost, but I'll be stubborn and ask you to be a tiny bit more specific...

[Spock]

Ok, um...
What was the first thing Glorfindel said after Strider/Aragorn showed him the morgul blade?

..first he shuddered as he took it, but looked intently at it. "there are evil things written on this hilt, though maybe your eyes cannot see them. Keep it, Aragorn, till we reach the house of Elrond! But be wary, and handle it as little as you may! Alas! the wounds of this weapon are beyond my skill to heal. I will do what I can...but all the more do I urge you now to go on without rest."

[ethuiliel]

I said a TINY BIT more specific, I just meant that they were written on the hilt. Anyways, you're right

[Spock]

"..it depends upon what your definition of TINY is" Now let me think.

[Spock]

How many sat down with Sam for his last supper in lands he was familiar with? tricksy my precious.

[Meriadoc Brandybuck]

Two: Frodo and Pippin?

[Spock]

Nope.

[Count Comfect]

Just Frodo?

[Spock]

Nope. Read closely (always a must with my questions-and I'm not giving in either :D

[Meriadoc Brandybuck]

Just Pippin???

[ethuiliel]

4: Frodo, Merry, Pippin, Fatty

[Spock]

The question is specific and contains all you need to figure it out. No, and no to your guesses.

[Count Comfect]

No one?

[Pytt]

sam. and pippin, and frodo. 3 persons.

Well if you are talking about his last meal in Hobbiton, in Bag End, then it was just Frodo and Pippin with Sam, it was tea time, and Lobelia was there with Lotho but they were not offered any, do they count? But if 'familiar lands' are just the Shire in general then his last meal was in Crickhollow with Merry, Pippin, Frodo, and Fatty.

[Radagast The Brown]

I think the answer is Merry, Fatty, Frodo and Pippin - just in the night before they left Hobbiton.

[Spock]

...sigh :( you are so close. The answer (specific) is in the book. It is derived by knowing the characters involved and what lands were indeed "familiar", in this case to Sam. I'll give you until Monday before I give up.

[Radagast The Brown]

Ah, right. After checking - and Folco Bofin? (sp.) (to the asnswer I gave just above your post)

[Spock]

REPEATING ...sigh :( you are so close. The answer (specific) is in the book. It is derived by knowing the characters involved and what lands were indeed "familiar", in this case to Sam., I'll give you until Monday before I give up.

[Telcontar_Dunedain]

Frodo, Sam and Pippin after the night when the elves found them?

[Spock]

THE QUESTION IS OFFICIALLY WITHDRAWN.

Telcontar gets to post the next question as he came closest....and I'm not revealing the correct answer. :)

[Telcontar_Dunedain]

Which Hobbit in Bree told Buttuerbur that he 'had or rather hadn't seen Mr Underhill'?

[Radagast The Brown]

Hey, reveal the answer! :p I need to know what it is, as it doesn't make sense to me it was after the night with the elves. Because it's said Sam didn't know those land too.

Magwort, TD? I think it was asked before.

[Spock]

:p nope

[Telcontar_Dunedain]

Correct Rad. Your go.

[Radagast The Brown]

:p nopeFine. :p

Where did Gandalf think Bilbo's corlest of Mithril rings was?

[Telcontar_Dunedain]

Gathering Dust in Michel Delving.

[Radagast The Brown]

correct.

[Telcontar_Dunedain]

How much was it worth according to Gandalf? This needs to be quite specific.

[Rosie Gamgee]

Th value of the Shire? :confused: (I haven't read that part in forever)

[Telcontar_Dunedain]

A bit more but that part is correct. Gandalf's exact words would be the exact answer.

[Rosie Gamgee]

Greater than the value of the whole Shire and everything in it.

Sorry, I cheated. I pulled the book out for Lyrd of the Ryngs, and it was just lying there so sweetly I just couldn't help but open it....

[Telcontar_Dunedain]

Correct

[Rosie Gamgee]

A-HA! *dances, then remembers she cheated*

What were the hobbits supposed to have 'ready in [their] hands' on Weathertop, and where were their faces supposed to be- according to Strider?

[Telcontar_Dunedain]

Branches with fire.

[Rosie Gamgee]

Nope.

Hey, Teddy, I posted the last letter of the Elendur series. Read?

[Telcontar_Dunedain]

They were facing outwards and did they just have long sticks?

[Rosie Gamgee]

Close enough, dear lad. Your go.

[Telcontar_Dunedain]

What day in which Shire year did Gandalf leave Frodo his letter?

[Rosie Gamgee]

I know this one, I know this one!!!! Um.... 2 Lithe? At least he left it then- he wrote in on Midsummer's Day, I think.

[Telcontar_Dunedain]

Correct. And the year?

[Rosie Gamgee]

Oh, the year? *rubs temples* The pressure of a year..... uh, 3018?

EDIT: Oh, you said Shire Reckoning. Um, crud. Is that 1018? I forget that one.

[Telcontar_Dunedain]

Nope.

[Rosie Gamgee]

And victory is squashed under the weight of a technicality.

[Telcontar_Dunedain]

Not that either! :p

[Rosie Gamgee]

Ha ha. I'm so amused. ;)

[Spock]

Midsummers day S.R. 1418

[Telcontar_Dunedain]

Correct

[Spock]

Westmarch is in the shire. Since when?

[Radagast The Brown]

32 to the Forth age.(yeah, I've looked in the book. :p)

[Spock]

32 to the Forth age.(yeah, I've looked in the book. :p)


Well you looked in the wrong place 'cause you got the wrong answer.

HURRY UP NOW GUYS, I LEAVE FOR A WEEKS VACATION AT 0500 TOMORROW.

[Radagast The Brown]

Fine. *going to check again* It's 1452 in Hobbit's count - which is 31 in the fourth Age. (I really do think you could accept my first answer. *tries not to roll his eyes* :p)

[Spock]

Hey, I'm Packed And Leaving For The Airport But You Take The Cake.:mad:

I'm Looking Right At The Book And It Says "the Westmarchwas Added To The Shire In S.r. 1462. So You Are Wrong, I Am Right And Am Going To Eat Some Almonds And Raisins And Feel Better. :rolleyes: :(

[Radagast The Brown]

I don't know. Relax, anyway. :p I'll check again later if it makes you feel better. :)

So is it my turn? Although I was wrong.. ?

[Pytt]

I would say so, Radagast. You were after all close to times, and the only one answering :)

[Telcontar_Dunedain]

Yeah I'd say so to.

[Radagast The Brown]

It's odd it contradicts itself. :confused: It says in the beginning that it's joined in 1462 and in the appendix that it's joined in 1452.. ???

Anyway : Where were the biggest libraries in the Shire, in the beginning of the fourth age?

[ItalianLegolas]

i'm gonna say either in Gondor or in Rivendell

[Last Child of Ungoliant]

It's odd it contradicts itself. :confused: It says in the beginning that it's joined in 1462 and in the appendix that it's joined in 1452.. ???

Anyway : Where were the biggest libraries in the Shire, in the beginning of the fourth age?
in the westmarch, under the tower hills?

either that or in michel delving!

[Telcontar_Dunedain]

i'm gonna say either in Gondor or in Rivendell
In the Shire! ;)

[Radagast The Brown]

Indeed, as TD said, I wrote 'in the Shire'. Besdies, IO wrote 'libraries' (plural). I meant that there are 3... one was indeed in Westmarch. The other two?

[Pytt]

well, I would have said Michel delving, but that is obvious wrong..
but I say Brandy hall, Smials, and undertowers.
(yes I used the book)

[Radagast The Brown]

All correct. :) ( I've accepted 'Westmarch' as Undertowers.)

[Pytt]

ok, it was under-tower in my book(a norwegian one,) so I took that.

ok, lets see.. who was king in Fornost, which let the party of hobbits go out from Bree and cross the Baranduin?

[Last Child of Ungoliant]

arvedui

[Pytt]

no, it was not Arvedui, though the one I am looking for was related with him ;)

[Last Child of Ungoliant]

no, it was not Arvedui, though the one I am looking for was related with him ;)
you don't say!! ;) :D:D

Arathorn I
(random guess!!)

[Pytt]

well yes, I actually do :D

and that is not correct either :evil:
keep trying, and you will get it, after some 20 posts or something, if you are going to name all the king of arnor... :p

[Pytt]

but now I'm going to bed, so if anyone have a guess make it quick, or it will have to wait to tomorrow

[Radagast The Brown]

Argeleb 2, no, didn't look it up. Was asked twice already... :p

[Pytt]

yes, that is correct, RtB :)
go ahead

[Radagast The Brown]

What's the name of Gil-Galad's spear? (yup, was already asked- but don't search!)

[ethuiliel]

Aeglos... or was that something else?

[Twigfaire]

I think the answer is Celeborn?

[Twigfaire]

ooops... I got confused by the order of the postings... I'm sorry! I withdraw my answer.

[Pytt]

I belive it is Aeglos, yes.

And Hi to you TWigfaire :)

[Radagast The Brown]

Yes, it is indeed Aeglos. :)

[ethuiliel]

Umm...
What would Frodo rather see "than all the towers and palaces in the world"?

[Telcontar_Dunedain]

Bilbo again.

[ethuiliel]

yeppers

[Telcontar_Dunedain]

What did Sam think was the best way of saying "Here I am" in the forest?

[Last Child of Ungoliant]

merry and pippin singing a walking song?

[Telcontar_Dunedain]

No. It says when they are near Weathertop.

[ethuiliel]

a fire

[Spock]

What did Sam think was the best way of saying "Here I am" in the forest?

To start a fire as Strider said it would serve as shelter or defense. Short of shouting, the fire was the best way of saying "here we are".

[Telcontar_Dunedain]

Almost Spock. They are both included in where it gives the correct answer.

[Spock]

..Well, I'm passing on this. Just got my ROTK EV today and the third disc won't play. #$!#$#!@ I'll get a new edition and free shipping back of this one but it just makes me mad. Not to mention all the changes (major) from the book. I still think FOTR was the best of the films. ok, I'm finished ranting...for now. :)

[Manveru]

ya i agree FotR was the best of the films

[mallondwen]

originally posted by Telcontar_Dunedain
What did Sam think was the best way of saying "Here I am" in the forest?

They were in the dell below Weathertop directly after spotting the Black Riders on the road from the top of Weathertop, and Aragorn said:

'There is still hope,' he [strider] said. 'You are not alone. Let us take this wood that is set ready for the fire as a sign. There is little shelter or defence here, but fire shall serve for both. Sauron can put fire to his evil uses, as he can all things, but these riders do not love it, and fear those who wield it. Fire is our friend in the wilderness.'

'Maybe,' muttered Sam. 'It is also a good way of saying "here we are" as I can think of, bar shouting.'

[Spock]

..yeah, but I already said that and got a "no". Guess we'll have to wait more. :-(

[Telcontar_Dunedain]

That quote gives you the answer. Spock you said that a fire was then shouting. Look at the quote closeley, but you were very close.

[Spock]

To start a fire as Strider said it would serve as shelter or defense. Short of shouting, the fire was the best way of saying "here we are".

OK, re-stating the answer.

the quote is "maybe, muttered Sam, It is also as good a way of saying her we are as I can think of, bar shouting."

[Telcontar_Dunedain]

Correct. Soryy I must have misunderstood your first answer.

[Spock]

Who said "some things are ill to hear when the world's in shadow."

THAT'S IT FOR THIS YEAR....HAVE A PEACEFUL NEW YEAR AND STAY SAFE....SEE

YOU ALL IN 2005, SAME BAT-BOARD, SAME BAT-CHANNEL. :D

[ethuiliel]

so, shouting is the best way to say "here I am" and fire is second best. is that it?

[Telcontar_Dunedain]

Yeah according to Sam.

[mallondwen]

originally posted by Spock
Who said "some things are ill to hear when the world's in shadow."

umm..was it Aragorn?

[ItalianLegolas]

was it possibly gandalf?

[Radagast The Brown]

Gildor, I think...

[Spock]

Nope, NOPE, and no. :D

[Pytt]

Denethor... maybe...

[Radagast The Brown]

Bombadil?

What makes you so happy? :p

[Spock]

Bombadil?

for 2005 the winner is ...DRUM ROLL PLEASE Radagast The Brown :-)

[Radagast The Brown]

Yay. :cool:

How many days did it take to Gandalf to get from Weathertop to Rivendell?

(in the month of October year 3018, after he was attacked by the Nazgul.)

[Pytt]

it took Gandalf 15 days, from the 3. to the 18. October.

[Radagast The Brown]

it took Gandalf 15 days, from the 3. to the 18. October.Tsk, tsk, I see somebody checked the appendices. :p It's wrong, Gandalf says something different in FotR. :)

[Pytt]

... :rolleyes: .. damn it!

[Pytt]

almost 14 days from Weathertop. this should be right...

[Radagast The Brown]

Very well. :D

Your turn. :)

[Pytt]

an easy one...
how many songs did the hobbits sing in Crickhollow?

[Meriadoc Brandybuck]

Two?

[Pytt]

correct :)

[Meriadoc Brandybuck]

In his note to Frodo in Bree, what message did Gandalf leave in PPPS.?

[Radagast The Brown]

That he hopes Butterbur sents the letter on time?

[Pytt]

he hopes Butterbur sends it right away. he is a good man, but he is soon to forget. if he forgets it, I will roast him.
almost...

[Spock]

HEY GUYS, it's been 5 days and I thought we agreed to 72 hours to be fair. Just checking :(

[Meriadoc Brandybuck]

That he hopes Butterbur sents the letter on time?
Radagast answered first, and I'll except that answer so your go! :)
Sorry for taking so long.

[Radagast The Brown]

What does Tom Bombadil say will be on the table in his house when the hobbits come to eat there?

[Spock]

The table is all laden with yellow cream, honeycomb, and white bread and butter. :D

[Radagast The Brown]

Correct! :)

[Spock]

Name three things that Frodo didn't sell when he left for his journey.

[Telcontar_Dunedain]

Food, Old Winyards and the Ring.

[Spock]

Food, Old Winyards and the Ring.

Well only a few hours for that one....but you can't count The Ring. Two out of three show you are on the right track so I'll give you a go! :D

Actually : 1)table 2)chairs 3) Old Wynyard Wine 4)food.

YOU GO!

[Telcontar_Dunedain]

Well only a few hours for that one....but you can't count The Ring.
Why not? He didn't sell it before his journey.

What was the first thing Sam saw in the Mirror of Galadriel?

[Manveru]

stars?

[Spock]

[QUOTE=Telcontar_Dunedain]Why not? He didn't sell it before his journey.

**OH come now, you of all people shouldn't ask that. I'll just assume you're being funny. :(

[Telcontar_Dunedain]

stars?
Correct.

**OH come now, you of all people shouldn't ask that. I'll just assume you're being funny.
:p

[Spock]

....four Days.....hello, Anyone There?

[Manveru]

ya sorry bout that. i kept forgetting about it. ill make it a two-parter to make up.

What is the first character that is mentioned in the book? the last?

[ethuiliel]

Bilbo? Sam?

[Last Child of Ungoliant]

gandalf

[Meriadoc Brandybuck]

Frodo was mentioned first, and Frodo and Sam last?

[Spock]

Bilbo? Sam?


whether you used the prologue or the first chapter, this is correct, IMO. :(

[Manveru]

Bilbo? Sam?


correct

[ethuiliel]

and it didn't even matter if it was just FotR or all of LotR...

How did Gandalf describe Frodo to Butterbur when told who to look out for/give the letter etc.?

[Telcontar_Dunedain]

A worthy man

[Radagast The Brown]

Stout, small with red cheeks?

[Rosie Gamgee]

A spark in his eye, I believe, and a cleft in his chin- as well as stout and rosy-cheeked. He also mentioned he'd be going by the name of Underhill.

[Spock]

"A stout little fellow with red cheeks. But this one is taller than some and fairer than most, and he has a cleft in his chin: perky chap with a bright eye."

..that is *the description* given to B.

[Lenya]

You know you guys just basically said all said the same thing? So who won?

[ethuiliel]

You're all right, but I'd say it goes to Rosie. The first one with the amount of detail I wanted.

[Spock]

Hooray for Rosie :D

[mallondwen]

k, it has been several days so just so the thread doesn't die:

what alerted Sam and Frodo to Tom Bombadil's presence in the Old Forest?

[Pytt]

Bombadil was singing?

[Rosie Gamgee]

Didn't they see him first? Oh, maybe it's that confounded movie getting in my head again. But I thought maybe they saw him a while before meeting Old Man Willow, and then he sang as he came to the rescue..... ARGH.


p.s. Sorry for not posting. Again.

[Last Child of Ungoliant]

they saw his hat, with feather in, appearing around the corner

[Spock]

yea, he wasn't even in the movie. Ratz.

[mallondwen]

Pytt was correct, he was singing. Merry and Pippin were stuck inside Old Man Willow and Frodo didn't know what to do so he ran down the path screaming for help- I can just picture Elijah doing that, hehehe :D - and he heard Tom singing his nonesense.

Hey dol! merry dol! ring a dong dillo!
Ring a dong! hop along! fal lal the willow!
Tom Bom, jolly Tom, Tom Bombadillo!

[Spock]

and FOUR days with no one responding....gadz, maybe it's the weather?

[Pytt]

Oh bugger :o it was me...

what did the hobbit wish for when they were out of the Barrow-downs?

[Spock]

Well the were without clothes and wanted them...and then they were hungry.

[Twista]

Yes i thought they wanted food..

[Pytt]

Yes, I guess I have to accept that. They wanted food, a door between them and the night, and a nice fire.

[Twista]

Spock has it then I suppose..

[Pytt]

Yes, since he answered first.

[Spock]

Who did Frodo displace as heir? Reads carefully my precious.

[Last Child of Ungoliant]

Lobelia Sackville-Baggins? :confused: :D

[Spock]

Lobelia Sackville-Baggins? :confused: :D

Lobelia's husband, Otho.

[Mrs.Gimli]

OK, so I'm number 58, slapped with a fish. However, I'm already a member of the "fish slapping dance" courtesy of Monty Python, so it may not count.

the question was already answered correctly when you posted your answer! :)

it is currently Meriadoc Brandybuck's question which is: What are the names of Farmer Maggot's dogs, if you have an answer to that question, please post away! but you can't actually post a new question until the question-setter has acknowledged that you were correct and first.

i hope i have been of some service.

[Bombadillo]

Oo, oo, oo! Pick me.

Grip, Fang, and Wolf.

[Last Child of Ungoliant]

"At which point did the fellowship turn south after leaving Rivendell?"

( If it says I edited this, it lies! lol )

[Spock]

*4 Days*

I'll ask one if Pytt doesnt kill in me in the process :p

"At which point did the fellowship turn south after leaving Rivendale?"

FIRST IT IS ** RIVENDELL** so Pytt & I can both kill you :D

At the Ford of Bruinen they left the Road and turned south.

[Twista]

[Pytt]

Ok, thanks. :)

Which day after leaving Bree did they come out of the Chet-wood?

[Pytt]

You are entirely correct :)

[Spock]

Who "was walking in the blue fields of the South"? and who told of it? Two parts my precious, we hates them parts :D

[Last Child of Ungoliant]

[Spock]

Ah well, this is what I get for checking the board again. YOU-R-CORRECT.
....now I will wait and see what new question you pose.

[Last Child of Ungoliant]

[Count Comfect]

[Last Child of Ungoliant]

[Spock]

gadz zooks, three minutes, that has to be a record :D

[Count Comfect]

OK then... who made the gates of Moria?

[Last Child of Ungoliant]

narvi

[Spock]

I seem to remember narvi made the West gate but can't remember more....time for more toast and tea.

[Last Child of Ungoliant]

if the east gate is mentioned, it would probably be durin

[Count Comfect]

I believe only the West Gate is mentioned, and it is indeed Narvi.

Your go, LCoU

[Last Child of Ungoliant]

which wood is in the north farthing

[Spock]

Gee I know the North Moors are there and the Old Forest.

[Last Child of Ungoliant]

[Last Child of Ungoliant]

yer rite, nearly, t's bindbole wood, but ill give yer that

[Spock]

What did Pippin want at 9:30am? vague but it's getting harder.

[Last Child of Ungoliant]

[Spock]

very close but no.

[Spock]

@#$!@#$!~@ another four days and you guys are failing. Maybe we should close these threads as we've used up just about everything and everyone?

[Bombadillo]

We can't end on the 100th page. This should be a point of glory.

My guess is just plain breakfast.

[Spock]

Well a milestone can be an end stone too. Just think it's now nine days and no reply.

[mithrand1r]

Well a milestone can be an end stone too. Just think it's now nine days and no reply.
