Sirithheruwen 05-12-2004 03:23 PM

False.

I think.

symestreem 05-12-2004 08:05 PM

True, I believe. Bilbo says it to the thirteen dwarves, in "Flies and Spiders" in The Hobbit. It's when they lasso the boat and find out it has no oars.

Firefoot 05-13-2004 02:21 PM

Symestreem has it 100%.

Quote:

I got here without much adventure.
True or false?

Thorongil 05-14-2004 06:50 AM

True I think. Bilbo to Frodo when they met in Rivendell.

symestreem 05-15-2004 09:36 AM

Correct, Thorongil, you're up.

Sirithheruwen 05-22-2004 03:50 PM

Yoo-hoo! Thorongil?

Sirithheruwen 05-25-2004 03:56 PM

Okay, it is (technically) past ten days. Here is the next true/false quote:

Quote:

Blunt the knives and scratch the forks!
Have :D fun!

Firefoot 05-26-2004 05:06 AM

False. It should be "bend the forks".

Sirithheruwen 05-26-2004 07:00 AM

Yep!
Go ahead Firefoot!

Firefoot 05-26-2004 02:34 PM

Thanks!
Quote:

He's been having a little feast

Sirithheruwen 05-26-2004 03:52 PM

False?

Firefoot 05-26-2004 07:29 PM

No - it's true. It's one of the Elf guards in the Hobbit about the guy who got drunk.
Quote:

You do not know your danger

Lindir 05-30-2004 04:19 PM

False? Should it be "You do not know your peril." or something like that. Gandalf said it to Theoden when Merry started talking about the weed from the Southfarthing? I don't have my book on hand.....

Firefoot 05-30-2004 06:59 PM

Actually it's true. You had the part right, though.
Quote:

it's very cold
True or false?

Sirithheruwen 06-05-2004 06:31 AM

Well, I'm completely stumped. :rolleyes: So, I'm just going to have a stab in the dark here...False.

Firefoot 06-05-2004 10:32 AM

Sorry - it's true.
Quote:

In this hall we can rest sound and safe.

Evisse the Blue 06-06-2004 02:15 AM

I think it's false.

Sirithheruwen 06-12-2004 06:00 PM

Firefoot? Yoo-hoo?

Firefoot 06-12-2004 06:05 PM

D'oh! That one is also true. Gandalf said it about Beorn's house.
Quote:

They fool about with boats on that big river

Sirithheruwen 06-12-2004 06:08 PM

True? Somehobbit in the Green Dragon about the Brandybucks?

Firefoot 06-12-2004 06:20 PM

Yep.

Sirithheruwen 06-14-2004 11:07 AM

Thanks!

Quote:

...he'll strangle us in our sleep!
True or False?

Carnimírië 06-14-2004 11:51 AM

True? Sam said it about Gollum?

Sirithheruwen 06-14-2004 11:59 AM

No, twas false. Sam said:

Quote:

he'll throttle us in our sleep!
Tricksy me! Hold on while I find something else...

Firefoot 07-04-2004 08:38 AM

Sirith?

Sleepy Ranger 08-20-2006 05:03 AM

Quote:

Tom-fool of a Took
Guess away folks.

Firefoot 08-22-2006 02:29 PM

Hm. I thought it was in Moria, but that's just fool, not tom-fool. And he doesn't use that wording with the Palantir. So... false?

Sleepy Ranger 08-22-2006 02:38 PM

Wrong-o. It is true.

I quote,

Quote:

Did he say "Hullo, Pippin! This is a pleasent surprise."? No, Indeed! He said "Get up, you tom-fool of a Took!"
As for the next one,

Quote:

I want him. Immediately.

Glirdan 08-22-2006 02:54 PM

It sounds false, but I have a feeling that it's true. It actually sounds like Saruman is speaking to the captain of Uruks.

Sleepy Ranger 08-22-2006 02:59 PM

Don't trust your instincts Glirdan. It is false. ;)

Quote:

I want him. Quick.
It was Gandalf to Pippin or if you prefer, Pippin narrating the tale. Both would be correct.

Next quote,

Quote:

The realm of Sauron has ended.

THE Ka 08-22-2006 03:04 PM

I am not good with names in middle earth, but I am with places and time. This sounds like a ROTK quote, and I think I might know who said it.

It is Gandalf, and is it true?

~ Ka

Sleepy Ranger 08-22-2006 03:12 PM

No, the quote is false.

Quote:

The realm of Sauron is ended.
The rest you stated is correct. Remember, I did tell you I'm not the King of Quotes for nothing. :p

Quote:

The dragon is withered,
His bones are crumbled;


Evisse the Blue 08-25-2006 02:24 PM

It's close but not cigar. Therefore, it's false.

Sleepy Ranger 08-25-2006 02:35 PM

Hah, indeed. Right you are Lady Evisse! Your turn.

Evisse the Blue 08-25-2006 02:42 PM

Thanks, Sleepy!
Also a song. Or is it?


Quote:

Crack the glasses and chip the plates!

Glirdan 08-25-2006 03:23 PM

That would be False! It should be

Quote:

Chip the glasses and crack the plates

Evisse the Blue 08-26-2006 09:49 AM

Correct you are.

Glirdan 08-30-2006 08:59 AM

Okay, here you go.

Quote:

Thag you bery much.

THE Ka 08-31-2006 03:43 PM

False.

Bilbo said with a very bad cold, caught on the Esgaroth, "Thag you very bunch".
