For 1 point: What did the elves call the Dwarves?

1 point: the Naugrim?

Yup.

2 points: How many Dwarf-rings did Sauron regain?

I'll bid 2 and say 3. The other 4 were consumed by dragons.

Yes.

:D Thank you very much, Master Firefoot! Anyways, for 2 points, who's sirname is Ironfoot?

Master...? I'm a she. :D

2 points: Dain.

Correct, and sorry. Master just sounds right, Mistress doesn't. Hmm, what's a good name...I'll get back to you on that one!

I await your decision. :D

Three points: what was the name of the crow that helped the Dwarves in The Hobbit?

I bid 3 points and say Roäc.

No.

It's not Roäc? Wow! Didn't see that comming! Well, since there's only one more that I know, I'll bid 1 and say Carc. Probably wrong, but how many black crows do you know?

Nope.

Ah well! Worth a shot!

The month is over. The July winner is...


~*~ The Perky Ent ~*~

Firefoot's question is still active, and unless it goes 10 days without responce, anyone can change it! And Firefoot, we could use a hint!

Well, I've got nothing to lose, and I only know of one other crow. Is it the Crebain?

No... pay careful attention to the wording of the question.

I bid 3 points and say that it wasn't a crow, it was a raven.

Too smart to be fooled by trick questions, NK is. Good job!

Three points for NightKnight!

And speaking like Yoda, Firefoot is. ;)

For 3 points: Over whose body did Dain Ironfoot fall?

:D

Three points: King Brand's body.

Yep, at the age of 250 or whatever he was. :p

1 point: what is another name for Dwarvish waybread?

I'll bid one point and say Cram.

1 point to you!

For 2 points: Who "betrayed" Thorin?

I'll bid 2 points and say Bilbo?

Whoa! Thanks for the wake up call Perky. You are, of course, correct. 2 points to you!

Right! Next question! What was the song the orcs sang to the dwarves when they were up in the trees?

2 points

Two points:

Fifteen birds in five firtrees,
their feathers were fanned in a fiery breeze!
But, funny little birds, they had no wings!
O what shall we do with the funny little things?
Roast 'em alive, or stew them in a pot;
fry them, boil them and eat them hot?

Burn, burn tree and fern!
Shrivel and scorch! A fizzling torch
To light the night for our delight,

Ya hey!

Bake and toast 'em, fry and roast 'em!
till beards blaze, and eyes glaze;
till hair smells and skins crack,
fat melts, and bones black

in cinders lie
beneath the sky!
So dwarves shall die,

and light the night for our delight,

Ya hey!
Ya-harri-hey!
Ya hoy!

There were actually two songs so I combined them and provided both for your pleasure.

Yes Indeed! 2 points for you, then!

Thanks, Perks.
 

3 points: how many Dwarves of Durin's line were held to be kings?

Durin VI, Nain I, Thrain I, THorin I, Gloin, Oin, Nain II, Dain I, Thror, Thrain II, Thorin II, Dain II, & Thorin III.
