I'm going to *bump* this up so that we'll get another question to answer [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Arwen Imladris 03-31-2003 09:06 PM

Hmmm, hows about:

Frodo, Bilbo, Galadriel, Gandalf.

alaklondewen 03-31-2003 09:18 PM

Elrond, Sam, and Cirdan the missing ring-bearers?

Narya 04-01-2003 08:10 AM

Or if only one is missing: Elrond cause he sailed away with the others and was a ring bearer.

Beren87 04-01-2003 03:31 PM

Sam did too though. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Tinuviel87 04-02-2003 02:14 PM

Technically I have no right to continue this but no one is posting ANYTHING so oh well...
What's missing:
Sam, Frodo, Merry, and Pippin [img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img] so I suck at this... haha

Aerandir Carnesir 04-02-2003 06:30 PM

Fatty Bolger?

Beren87 04-02-2003 08:12 PM

Tinuviel87, they have 10 days.

It's still Arwen's question.

Arwen Imladris 04-02-2003 08:47 PM

It was Elrond that I was thinking of, the others were corect though!

Narya: Your turn!

Tinuviel87 04-02-2003 08:47 PM

Lo siento... v. sorry *slaps hand* But if I had not broken the rules Aerandir would be correct...but I did [img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img]

Rochelle 04-11-2003 05:56 PM

It's been quite a bit so I'll post a new riddle:

Whos missing:

Bifur, Bofur, Bombur, Thorin, Dwalin, Balin...

The Saucepan Man 04-11-2003 06:29 PM

Quote:

Bifur, Bofur, Bombur, Thorin, Dwalin, Balin...
... Dori, Nori, Ori, Oin, Gloin, Fili and Kili.

Hi ho, hi ho, it's off to work we go ... [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Rochelle 04-14-2003 07:58 AM

Correct you are! Those merry dwarves *lol*

The Saucepan Man 04-14-2003 10:57 AM

Oh, those crazy Dwarves. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

OK, how about this one. Who's missing:

Bilbo Baggins, Deagol, Frodo Baggins, Isildur, Samwise Gamgee, Sauron, Smeagol, Tom Bombadil.

Sophia the Thunder Mistress 04-14-2003 02:21 PM

Gandalf, the only other person to touch the one ring. (did you steal this from the Middle Earth maths thread? [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img])

Thief, Saucepanses! [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] (Although that was Ringbearers, not Ringtouchers.)

You are, of course, correct, Sophia. And I thought that it was a tricksy one. [img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img]

Sophia the Thunder Mistress 04-14-2003 10:19 PM

lol... it would have been, except I was the one who posted the list of ring-touchers on the other thread [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] Let me think for a moment...

Tirion, Minas Anor, Avallone, Gondolin...

Sophia

So you did. I honestly hadn't noticed that. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Excellent question, Sophia. My first thought was that they were all White Cities, which led me on to what I think might be the answer ...

... Armenelos in Númenor, this being the other location of one of the White Trees - Nimloth descended from Telperion.

There was Galathilion, the White Tree that stood in Tirion, Celeborn in Avallone and the Two White Trees that grew in the courts of Minas Anor. Gondolin had no actual White Tree, but an image of the Two Trees of Valinor that was made by Turgon.

So, is it Armenelos?

Sophia the Thunder Mistress 04-15-2003 11:14 AM

it is, but there's one more... [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

The Saucepan Man 04-15-2003 02:04 PM

Well then that must surely be Ezellohar, the green mound before the Gates of Valimar, where the original Two Trees of the Valar stood.

Edit: Wait! Scrub that. You must be looking for Minas Ithil, where the original fruit from Nimloth was planted.

Sophia the Thunder Mistress 04-15-2003 05:19 PM

Bingo! [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img] I didn't think you'd figure it out that fast... [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

The Saucepan Man 04-15-2003 05:24 PM

Hehe. Had to do some quick thinking there. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Attercop, Old Tomnoddy, Lazy Lob, Crazy Cob

Beren87 04-15-2003 05:31 PM

Hmm...Old fat Spider maybe? They were all names Bilbo called the spiders in The Hobbit.

Sophia the Thunder Mistress 04-15-2003 05:33 PM

Those are all names that Bilbo called the spiders in the Hobbit, but I can't find anymore... *frowns* possibly "old fat spider"?
Quote:

Old fat spider spinning in a tree!
Old fat spider can't see me!
Attercop! Attercop!
Won't you stop,
Stop your spinning and look for me?

Old Tomnoddy, all big body,
Old Tomnoddy can't spy me!
Attercop! Attercop!
Down you drop!
You'll never catch me up your tree!
Quote:

Lazy Lob and crazy Cob
are weaving webs to wind me.
I am far more sweet than other meat,
but still they cannot find me.

Here I am, naughty little fly;
you are fat and lazy.
You cannot trap me, though you try,
in your cobwebs crazy.

The Saucepan Man 04-15-2003 05:34 PM

Is it "Get Saucepan's questions so quick that he can't keep up" Day, or something? [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Old fat spider it is, Beren87. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Edit: Ah, I'm tempted to give it to Sophia for reciting those great verses in all their glory. But, Beren had it first (by a whisker). [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

elven maiden Earwen 07-02-2003 03:38 PM

King_Elendil it is not your turn because Cúdae answered my question correct. Please read the
Quiz Room Rules. and have fun. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Could the answer be :Adanedhel, Agarwaen, Bloodstained, Dread Helm, The Wronged, Bane of Glaurung, The Black Sword.
Any of those?

Cúdae 07-02-2003 03:47 PM

Agarwaen was what I was thinking of, so you got it! [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

I didn't know he had so many other names...whoa. lol.

elven maiden Earwen 07-02-2003 03:53 PM

I know. In my opinion that is way too many names for one man.

Next Question:
Halflings, Holbytlan, Little People, Hobbits and..... What's missing?

Cúdae 07-02-2003 04:02 PM

Perriennath? Did I spell that right?

elven maiden Earwen 07-02-2003 06:12 PM

I know what you ment so it is now your turn.

Edit: Spelling. such an evil thing.

Gwaihir the Windlord 07-03-2003 12:20 AM

You seemed to have got them all already. Unless you want to have Galadhrim?

Firondoiel 07-03-2003 08:25 AM

Úmanyar or Moriquendi?

[ July 03, 2003: Message edited by: Firondoiel ]

Sophia the Thunder Mistress 07-03-2003 10:57 AM

Eldar, Calaquendi...

And you have Nandor twice [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]. Thought I'd mention it.

Sophia
