a purse

Kaze 08-25-2002 09:01 PM

yep, I knew that one was easy. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] Your turn.

Orome 08-25-2002 09:08 PM

what did gandalf do to Bilbo's door and what did it mean

Beren87 08-26-2002 03:11 PM

He scratched a queer sign on the door, that means Burgular wants a job, plenty of excitement and reasonable reward.

Orome 08-26-2002 08:47 PM

correct. your go

The Rip Designs Dude 08-27-2002 01:26 PM

DAMN ! Can you ask even easier questions ?

Orome 08-27-2002 05:08 PM

probably, but i do most of my qusetion asking at midnight and my sister stole my book so it is hard to come up with good ones

Beren87 08-27-2002 06:12 PM

What is the skill that Hobbits take pride in? I assume they take pride in others as well, but this one is clearly stated.

Orome 08-27-2002 07:25 PM

their skill at walking silently/stealthily.

and because The Rip Designs Dude does not like my Qs i'll let him ask this next one providing that i am right

The Rip Designs Dude 08-28-2002 11:51 AM

Orome 08-28-2002 08:00 PM

tut tut The Rip Designs Dude you should know by now that you have to wait for comfirmation from the asker

Beren87 08-29-2002 03:54 PM

Well i'd say go but you already did, [img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img] so....I guess that it's your turn Orome

Orome 08-29-2002 06:30 PM

you can take it Beren87

Beren87 08-30-2002 02:37 PM

Allright then,
What was the Gaffer's delight?

Beren87 09-03-2002 03:53 PM

Hmmmm, I seem to have killed the topic. [img]smilies/evil.gif[/img]

Salix 09-05-2002 07:05 PM

Potatoes? Anyway, didn't the Gaffer only appear in LOTR and this is trivia from the Hobbit?

Beren87 09-06-2002 01:54 PM

WOAHH, so sorry I misread the topic as Hobbit trivia (being about hobbits). Anyway that's the right answer.

Salix 09-06-2002 09:56 PM

S'Okay.

Why was Bilbo asked to come on the quest to the Lonely Mountain?

Iarwain 09-07-2002 09:20 PM

Two reasons, because of his family, and because he needed it.

Bruce MacCulloch 09-08-2002 12:06 AM

Bilbo went to be the lucky 'number fourteen', since there were thirteen dwarves in Thorin's party.
Quote:

... You asked me to find the fourteenth man for your expedition, and I chose Mr. Baggins. Just let any one say I chose the wrong man or the wrong house, and you can stop at thirteen and have all the bad luck you like, or go back to digging coal. ...
-Gandalf to Thorin and Co.

Salix 09-08-2002 01:29 PM

Go ahead Bruce.

Bruce MacCulloch 09-08-2002 07:37 PM

What did Beorn do with the goblin and the Warg he caught after he had questioned them?

Dwarin Thunderhammer 09-08-2002 07:42 PM

Beorn impailed the orc head on the gate and naied the warg skin to a tree.

Bruce MacCulloch 09-08-2002 07:44 PM

Go for it, Dwarin. Your turn.

Dwarin Thunderhammer 09-08-2002 07:48 PM

To quote a noticably absent zifnab: cool beans.

What were the the dwarves under Dains command armed with?

[ September 08, 2002: Message edited by: Dwarin Thunderhammer ]

Bruce MacCulloch 09-08-2002 07:54 PM

They carried mattocks into battle, but also were armed with broadswords and round shields.

Dwarin Thunderhammer 09-08-2002 08:03 PM

Good job bruce your turn.

Bruce MacCulloch 09-08-2002 08:29 PM

Why was the Carrock called 'The Carrock'?

hobbitlass 09-09-2002 12:16 PM

Beorn calls it "the Carrock" because it is his word for it and this particular one is nearest his home and he knows it well. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Bruce MacCulloch 09-09-2002 10:13 PM

That would be the answer I was looking for. Your go.

hobbitlass 09-10-2002 04:20 AM

When paert of the company went to scout out the front gate, what did Balin think the halls within were filled with? [img]smilies/eek.gif[/img]

Elven_Warrior 09-15-2002 04:30 PM

the foul reek of Smaug?

"When paert of the company went to scout out the front gate, what did Balin think the halls within were filled with? "

hobbitlass 09-17-2002 01:44 PM

That's it. Your go. I thought people had given up on the game. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Elven_Warrior 09-20-2002 11:44 AM

When Gollum was chasing Bilbo through the goblin cave, he was looking for the passage to the back door. Where was it?

Grey_pilgrim 09-21-2002 05:49 AM

when gollum stopped he was sitting right in front of the exit and Bilbo had to jump over him to get out. (is that what you mean?)

Elven_Warrior 09-21-2002 05:31 PM

That's what I'm talking about, but before Gollum stops, he has to find the right passage. Where is the passage?

Nilwen 09-22-2002 06:44 AM

On the right.

Elven_Warrior 09-22-2002 08:47 PM

Well...that's really close. I was looking for a number to go with that though...

Nilwen 09-23-2002 09:13 AM

Third pasig on the right

Elven_Warrior 09-23-2002 05:29 PM

not quite.....
