Barad-dûr?

Orthanc?

Gil-numen, you're close - can you be more specific?

Elostirion?

Yes, that's the one!

Who was the tallest ever of the Children of Eru, and how tall (approximately) was he said to be?

Elendil the tall, 2 and a half ranga

Quite right, Aragost. I believe, if I am not mistaken, that that translates to about 7'10"!

Your turn.

Aragost!!!! It's your turn...

OK...I'm taking his turn...

What is the biggest forest in known Middle-earth?

Mirkwood?

Indeed.

What was the coastal region of Beleriand called?

Herm, wasn't it called Falas?

Or Arvernien...

hmm no..Falas is correct

Falas it is. Arvedui's turn.

Thanks. Herm now...Which ruling steward reigned the longest?

Q: Who are the two people that the aragonath are a likness of?

<font size=1 color=339966>[ 1:10 PM February 08, 2004: Message edited by: The Perky Ent ]

Isildur and Anarion.

Evisse?
 

It's your turn, Evisse!

I was waiting for your confirmation! Now that I have it here I go:

Who had the One Ring for the shortest period of time?

Sorry for the confusion, Evisse! Now, who had it the shortest time? Would that be Deagol?

Deagol didn't exactly have it he just pick it up.
So I'll say Samwise Gamgee he kept it only for a while in Cirith Ungol and then gave it back to Frodo. And theres Galadriel but she didn't exactly have it either.

Sorry, Sleepy, but Deagol counts as well. Please continue, Perky Ent.

How many ring Bearers were there in Middle Earth...and name them!

MWA HA HA :D :D

Sauron, Frodo, Smeagol, Bilbo, Isildur, Gandalf, Cirdan, Gil-Galad, Elrond, Galadriel, 7 Dwarves, Witch King, Khamul 7 more men.
And if you count Saruman, Finrod, Barahir, Beren, Aragorn.
So thats 32.

*****201th Post*****
 

• [1]I'm counting Barahir, Saruman, Aragorn and all them
  [2]You just made the same mistake you made in the last question!!!

EDIT: THIS IS MY 201TH POST!!!!!!

Deagol and Sam weren't ring-bearers. For they had it for too short a time.

Oh yeah! You're right. But your math is still wrong!

I think that Sam counts because in the book, Elanor says that Sam passed on to the Grey Havens, last of the Ring-Bearers. He had the ring for the whole time it took him to find Frodo in Cirith Ungol. Deagol doesn't, because he only had it for maybe a few minutes at best.

And so by my tally there are 33 ringbearers: Isildur, Sauron, Frodo, Bilbo, Smeagol, Sam, Cirdan, Gil-Galad, Gandalf, Galadriel, Elrond, 7 dwarves, 9 men, Aragorn, Barahir, Beren, Finrod, Saruman, and Arwen. (Aragorn gave the ring of Barahir to her for a bit as a sign of faithfulness, but she could be ruled out along the same lines as Sam or Deagol)

To bear the One Ring
 

The question of who qualifies as a bearer of the One Ring is a matter of some debate: To bear the One Ring. Please post there if you want to discuss this issue further.

As for this question, we'll have to go with whatever was in The Perky Ent's mind ...

Well, i'm gonna stick with Arvedui on this one! *wink* your turn!

What's with the *wink*?
 

Thanks...um....right. Herm, new question: How many Orphans are there in LOTR, and name them.

Well, we have Frodo and Aragorn...and then Eomer and Eowyn. Are there more?
