Lothlorien is the only place Gandalf is not mention to have been in the LotR trilogy?

Glirdan 10-20-2005 05:29 AM

Reason is completely wronf there. Gandalf did go to Lothlorien after he came back from the dead. He was flown to Lothlorien on Galadriel's orders and was given clothes and he stayed there for a week or so (I think I'm wrong about that) and then headed to Edoras. Guess again!! :p :D

ElentariGreenleaf 10-20-2005 05:39 AM

Ah yes, so he did. Well, it's been a while since I read the books ^_^;

Telchar 10-21-2005 03:43 AM

The reason is more important than the place ;) ... im not going to continue this thread...

Glirdan 10-21-2005 07:29 AM

Oh come Telchar, I'm pretty sure you'd be able to get it. Remember, it still has something to do with Hobbit, but more importantly, a Baggins.

There's your hint.

Telchar 10-21-2005 09:33 AM

Seriously, Im lost! Bilbo never went to neither Lothlorien or Fangorn. Frodo never went to Mirkwood or Fangorn... :(

Glirdan 10-21-2005 02:16 PM

Ok, you got it. I know that was difficult, and there are numerouse possibilites for that, but that's what I wanted, Bilbo never went to Lothroien. I hate it when there's numerous answers because then you just want to give it to that person!!! :mad: GRRR!!!! Sorry that I had to put you all through that. :( I truly am!!! :(

Telchar 10-21-2005 05:53 PM

ok - here goes

Hobbiton
Long Cleeve
Nobottle
Needlehole

:rolleyes:

Rune Son of Bjarne 10-21-2005 06:17 PM

Long Cleeve is the only one in North-farthing/not in West-farthing.

The only thing I could think of, just now.

Telchar 10-22-2005 01:07 AM

Its a nice guess Rune, but sorry, no. It thas nothing to go with the four farthings...

Estanesse 11-02-2005 08:46 AM

Is the odd out Long Cleeve. Its the only Took village.

Telchar 11-03-2005 02:04 PM

no - as always when I post odd outs - one stands out because the others have something in common. Being "not-a-took-village" isn't much to have in common :p

HINT: Its geographical!

Estanesse 11-03-2005 02:25 PM

:o :o :D

Is it Long Cleeve, doesnt lay near a river and the others do.

Telchar 11-03-2005 03:33 PM

Thats good enough for me :) Long Cleeve is odd out for not being situated on The Water

Estanesse 11-03-2005 07:13 PM

Thanks Telchar,
  • Carchost
  • Minas Ithil
  • Thousand Caves
  • Barad dur

Eonwe 11-03-2005 08:31 PM

ill go with the thousand caves, as it has no tower.

Estanesse 11-04-2005 06:39 AM

No sorry,

Hint *The Thousand Caves is not the odd out.*

Gil-Galad 11-04-2005 03:48 PM

Barad Dur, only place not to be held by different races

(Carchost - Orcs and men)
(Minas Ithil - orcs and men and nazgul)
(Thousand Caves - men and dwarves)

Estanesse 11-04-2005 04:21 PM

No but good guess.

Gil-Galad 11-04-2005 10:23 PM

Carchost...nothing lived in it

Estanesse 11-05-2005 02:09 PM

No thats not it

Glirdan 11-05-2005 02:11 PM

I'm going to guess at Minas Ithil. It was the only building constructed by Numenoreans.

Estanesse 11-05-2005 02:15 PM

Warm but no

Glirdan 11-05-2005 02:18 PM

OOOOO!!! So it is Minas Ithil. Or, I'm pretty sure it is. Now to think of a reason.....It was the only one that got taken over by orcs? That's probably wrong.....

Gil-Galad 11-05-2005 02:58 PM

Carchost was taken over by orcs...


Minas Ithil...only place to be taken and left standing during the Last Alliance?
(Barad Dur was destoryed but foundations left, Carchost was built after the Last Alliance)

Estanesse 11-05-2005 03:20 PM

No no its not Minas Itil :D but your reason was not so far off from the reason I'm looking for.

Gil-Galad 11-05-2005 04:00 PM

Barad Dur then? with the reasons stated above

Estanesse 11-05-2005 05:11 PM

Its not the reason I'm looking for, but you are looking in the right direction.

Gil-Galad 11-06-2005 11:57 AM

so its Barad Dur...any hints?

Estanesse 11-06-2005 01:35 PM

*HINT* Thousand Caves is the odd out

Glirdan 11-06-2005 06:25 PM

But you said earlier that it's not the odd out. I'm so confused!! :confused: :(

care to explain Esta?

Estanesse 11-07-2005 12:51 PM

:eek: :o :o

Can I explain that, sorry for that. But anyway it is the odd out.

Glirdan 11-07-2005 06:33 PM

Ok, if it is the odd out, is it because no no Hobbit explored in it or because it's not man made? I think both of those are wrong but hey, it's worth a shot, right?

Plastic_Panda 11-07-2005 08:08 PM

it was the only one that was a cave?
or possibly it was the only one named in Common. Minas Ithil, no, Carochost, no, Barad-dur, no....well its right but might not be correct ;)

Gil-Galad 11-07-2005 11:08 PM

only one inhabited by dwarves?

Estanesse 11-09-2005 07:54 AM

All good guesses, but No, no and nope.

Mettare 11-11-2005 12:31 PM

Thousand Caves because it's the only First Ager? (Destroyed in the First Age, that is)

Estanesse 11-11-2005 05:05 PM

Yes thats it.
Floor is yours

Mettare 11-15-2005 02:46 PM
