Sleepy Ranger 02-10-2004 10:50 AM

Need a hint? Can't be that tough...

luthien-elvenprincess 02-11-2004 04:15 PM

Hint!!!
 
Yes, I definately need a hint for who said this! I have been looking and looking...

Sleepy Ranger 02-12-2004 01:53 AM

Its from The Hobbit.

luthien-elvenprincess 02-12-2004 08:10 PM

oh...haven't read The Hobbit yet. But, I'll venture a guess...
Quote:

Now I wonder what has happened?
Did Bilbo say this?

Sleepy Ranger 02-13-2004 01:37 AM

Yes Bilbo said it. But to whom?
Hint: A bit tricky.

luthien-elvenprincess 02-13-2004 06:57 PM

Someone else must answer...I do not have The Hobbit to even look for the rest of the answer.:confused:
I could guess: Smaug, or one (or all) of the dwarfs in his companionship; Gandalf?:cool: ;)

Sleepy Ranger 02-14-2004 01:36 PM

All wrong:eek: :confused: :)

Sleepy Ranger 02-16-2004 03:57 AM

Need another hint?

Sleepy Ranger 03-09-2004 10:06 AM

Vuelve 03-10-2004 06:57 PM

Vuelve

Sleepy Ranger 03-11-2004 08:59 AM

I think in the book he said it to Sam, but close enough.

"Why would that make you happy?"

I have no idea who said that....um, just guessing; Aragorn to Eowyn? :rolleyes:

Firefoot 04-18-2004 05:40 AM

Quite by accident, I found it.

"Why would that make you happy?" Legolas to Gimli.

Sleepy Ranger 04-18-2004 05:45 AM

Legolas to Gimli it is. :)

Firefoot 04-18-2004 05:54 AM

"Drepi lwolu eb lofyl ahtt idndeasid leph nad onelcsu ta eden;"

Firefoot 06-04-2004 11:02 AM

Anybody there?

Sleepy Ranger 06-04-2004 12:40 PM

I'm here but I'm asleep ;)

Firefoot 06-04-2004 12:41 PM

Yeppers.

Sleepy Ranger 07-11-2004 02:00 PM

Someone else can take my turn as its been well over 10 days and I don't think I can do in any question-setting at the moment.

wilwarin538 07-12-2004 10:02 AM

Ill give it a shot

..... nda ew lilw ont grefot erh!


Who said it and to whom?

wilwarin538 07-15-2004 07:02 AM

ok a hint: its from the fellowship

Sleepy Ranger 07-15-2004 10:15 AM

Hey don't look at me, I'm not answering this. We need more people to take an interest in quotes, so I'd like it if someone else answers, I'll just make it easier.

Quote:

And we will not forget her
Hope to see some answeres now.

luthien-elvenprincess 07-16-2004 01:47 PM

Sleepy Ranger, you did the easy part! ;) I found it quite unintentionally while re-reading just for enjoyment:
Quote:

Tom Bombadil said this to th hobbits. He was speaking of himself and Goldberry never forgetting the lady who once wore the blue-stoned brooch he was then looking at.

Well thats my job. There was a bit too much inactivity in this place. And as being one of the top quoters :p I felt it to be my job to drag people in here.

wilwarin538 07-16-2004 04:24 PM

and of course you are right luthien-elvenprincess, and thank you for the help sleepy ranger.

luthien-elvenprincess 07-16-2004 07:11 PM

rea yuo tlils glilwin ot pehl em

wilwarin538 07-20-2004 05:58 PM

" Are you still willing to help me"

Could I have a hint please? :)

luthien-elvenprincess 07-22-2004 11:46 AM

Hint: a hobbit said this toward the beginning of the journey of the ring

Encaitare 07-27-2004 02:21 PM

"Are you still willing to help me" and I believe it is Frodo who says this, to the other hobbits once he learns that they know of the Ring and tells them what danger they are in.

luthien-elvenprincess 07-29-2004 07:47 PM

"Are you still willing to help me" is correct. Frodo said it...but not to any hobbit.

Encaitare 07-29-2004 08:44 PM

Hah! ::strikes triumphant pose:: I fetched my pretty Alan Lee-illustrated copy of the book and skimmed like mad.

It was Frodo to Barliman Butterbur in Chapter X, "Strider"

luthien-elvenprincess 07-30-2004 08:06 PM

Good skimming, Encaitare. You are next!

Encaitare 07-31-2004 08:31 PM

Alrighty, here's the next one:

"Neev nehw eh nsksae tou ta ginht ti si nylo ot kolo ta eht ratss."

Enjoy!

Morsul the Dark 07-31-2004 09:11 PM

even when he sneaks out at night it is only to look at the stars

where it is from I do not know I'll let someone else figure it out

Encaitare 07-31-2004 09:33 PM

Yup, that's right but before a new one can be posted someone needs to tell who said it to whom...
