Lovely game, perky. Good idea! :D I think, if I may, that I shall join in once a new question is asked.

The Perky Ent 04-29-2004 04:43 PM

The points have been counted.

~*~NOTICE~*~ the end of april is drawing near, which means we will soon have our first winner for the month.

luthien-elvenprincess 04-29-2004 05:14 PM

Alright...for 4 points.

Where and when did Thorin Oakenshield first met Gandalf? By 'when', I mean month/day/year.

The Perky Ent 04-29-2004 05:41 PM

Do we need to know the day, month, and year, cause i can only find the place, year, and month. Not the date

The Saucepan Man 04-29-2004 06:18 PM

I will bid all 4 points ...
 
... and say 15 March, 2941 (Third Age) in an inn at Bree (although the Unfinished Tales has them meeting on the road to Bree). The name of the inn is not specified, but it was quite likely the Prancing Pony.

Correct :)

I bid three points... Khim & Ibun.

The Saucepan Man 04-30-2004 07:46 AM

Quite remarkable ...
 
Sorry Thorongil, but samwise8504 got there first. And samwise, you didn't place a bid which, according to the Perky Ent's rules, means that you get minimum points for the question, ie 1 point. But you do get to ask the next one. :)

(Perky Ent: I think that you should add the rules on the consequences of not bidding to your first post on this thread.)

samwise8504 04-30-2004 07:50 AM

ok for 3 points, name the two dwarves who were slain by azog

Thorongil 04-30-2004 08:02 AM
