Pallando B.C 01-03-2003 10:16 PM

Yes, Well done.

Mandos 01-03-2003 10:26 PM

What was Finwe and Feanor's stronghold in Aman called?

Pallando B.C 01-03-2003 10:32 PM

Formenos, also the place that Finwë was killed.

Mandos 01-03-2003 10:37 PM

exactly. your turn

Pallando B.C 01-03-2003 10:41 PM

Formenos means 'Northern Fortress'.

What other place also means this, what is it and who does it belong to?

Mandos 01-03-2003 10:54 PM

Melkor's fortress of Agband in the North of Middle Earth

Pallando B.C 01-03-2003 10:56 PM

Good guess, but nope.

Russandol 01-05-2003 11:29 PM

Would that be Fornost also called Fornost Erain - Norbury of the Kings, latterly Deadmens Dike .. ruined around T.A 1974 by the invading forces of Angmar and Rhudaur. As to who owns it? King Elessar after the War Of The Ring?

Pallando B.C 01-06-2003 12:36 AM

Yes, Russandol.

Russandol 01-06-2003 01:44 AM

What was Súthburg?

Pallando B.C 01-07-2003 04:23 AM

It was the former name of Hornburg.

Russandol 01-07-2003 01:26 PM

Correct!

Pallando B.C 01-07-2003 06:23 PM

Great!

Who is Farmer Maggot said to have 'mutual respect' with?

Beren87 01-07-2003 06:24 PM

The Gaffer?

Pallando B.C 01-07-2003 06:34 PM

Maybe, but not the one I'm thinking of.

Mandos 01-07-2003 06:57 PM

Was it Pippin?

Pallando B.C 01-07-2003 07:24 PM

Good try, but no.

Keeper of Dol Guldur 01-07-2003 08:28 PM

You people are novices;

The answer is Tom Bombadil

Keeper of Dol Guldur 01-07-2003 08:30 PM

Okidoki, next question huh?

When the hobbits rescued poor Fredagar Bolger from the lockholes, after the Scouring of the Shire, what did they refer to him as (meaning a funny take on his nickname)?

Russandol 01-07-2003 08:35 PM

Well his nickname was Fatty but Pippin refered to him as 'poor old Fredegar', not much of a take.

Beren87 01-07-2003 08:40 PM

Keeper of Dol Goldur, let this "novice" remind you to wait for confirmation that you are correct before posting a new question. Even you "experts" have to follow the rules. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Pallando B.C 01-08-2003 05:49 PM

Well put, Beren.

Keeper of Dol Goldur, you have to wait for my response before you can continue. I also hope you said 'novices' with humour in mind. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Lucky you were correct.

Pallando B.C 01-11-2003 06:09 PM

I'd say you were correct, Russandol [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]
So you better go.

Pallando B.C 01-18-2003 06:30 PM

As many people may have noticed, Russandol doesn't seem to be keeping threads going. No disrespect Russandol, but it has been well over 10 days, so I will proceed.

Ok, back to the quizzes.

If I was cutting of orc heads with Ringil, whilst upon Rochallor, who would I be?

Beren87 01-18-2003 09:53 PM

Well, I'd hope you would be Fingolfin, or else you're gonna be in a lot of trouble for stealing his sword and his horse.

Pallando B.C 01-18-2003 10:24 PM

Haha, Nice one Beren. Your Turn.

Beren87 01-18-2003 11:02 PM

If I killed a bowman with his own sword, who would I be? (more than likely that is)

Pallando B.C 01-19-2003 06:01 AM

It would have to be Túrin, killing poor Beleg with Anglachel.

Beren87 01-19-2003 03:36 PM

I should know better than to ask such an easy question with you here! Your turn Pallando.

Pallando B.C 01-20-2003 04:26 AM

Thanks Beren!

Let's give you an easy one.....

Where did Thingol and Melian meet and fall in love?

Russandol 01-20-2003 07:54 AM

First my apologies for my earlier tardiness with this thread. Keeping track of so many gets difficult with reality getting in the way at times [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Elwe Singollo and Melian the Maia met in the woods of Nan Elmoth in East Beleriand, later the home of Eol the Dark Elf.

Pallando B.C 01-20-2003 07:55 PM

Extra Credit points for Russandol!

Russandol 01-21-2003 07:10 AM

What is the name of the short stabbing sword of the Numenoreans?

Pallando B.C 01-24-2003 11:40 PM

An eket?

Russandol 01-26-2003 01:29 PM

Good job Pallando!

Pallando B.C 01-26-2003 06:55 PM

Thanks, Russandol.

When twenty years of the Sun had passed, what did Fingolfin do.

-What?
-When?
-Where?

Beren87 01-27-2003 02:14 PM

Fingolfin made a great feast held in the spring, near to the pools of Ivrin. It was called Mereth Aderthad.

Pallando B.C 01-27-2003 03:37 PM

Great job, Beren.

Beren87 01-27-2003 03:58 PM

Oooo, it was even bolded!

Who led the Haladin into Beleriand?

Ultimatejoe 01-27-2003 04:01 PM
