1. The stars originally came from the dews of Telperion.

2. Pallando was a maia of Oromë.

3. Bilbo gave Hugo Bracegirdle an umbrella.

cleaver question, but I am pretty sure I have the answer:

3) Hugo Bracegirdle got a bookcase, right ?

Yes, indeed, you are correct. Your thread, Rune.

Thanks
 

1) Edhellond was foundet by Silvan Elves
2) A ring from Gil-Galad was given to the wife of Ulbar (the shepherd)
3) Queen Berúthiel dissapered in the far south and was never heard of again

2 is wrong. A Ring was given from Gil-Galad to Cirdan.

not the rigt answer, the ring I am talking of was just a gift from gil-galad to Tar-Aldarion who then gave it to wife of Ulbar.

Then it has to be number 1, for Beruthiel was lost in the south, put on a raft with her cats IIRC.

yup, your turn NightKnight

Right-o, lets try this out. Here it comes:

1) Bregolas was killed in Dagor Bragollach
2) Barahir was killed in Dagor Bragollach
3) Borlach was killed in Nirnaeth Arnoediad

#2:Barahir did fight in Dagor Bragollach, but died fighting in Dorthonion.

Indeed. Your turn, Holbytlass.

1)Fen Hollen: marshes west of Minas Tirith
2)Fen March: marshes along Mering Stream
3)Fen Serech: marshes above Pass of Sirion

Without looking at a map, I would guess 1. I surely do not remember there being marshes west of Minas Tirith. In fact, I think that there are only the White Mountains west of the White City.

You got it because #1 is false, but Fen Hollen is on the west side of Minas Tirith. For bonus, what is Fen Hollen?

I just realized how horribly mean it would be to put:

1. Balrogs have wings.
2. Balrogs do not have wings.
3. (Insert whatever you want. The joke has been made.)

But I'm not going to do that, cause I'm not that horribly mean. So...

According to the Books.
1. Turin was killed by Glaurung.
2. Glaurung was killed by Turin.
3. Beren had his hand bitten off.

1) Turin took his own life, well Gurthang helped.

Wow! Three minutes! That was really quick Rune! Congratulations, you are correct, so the thread is yours. :D

Thanks Gurthang. . .

1)The Inland Sea of Helcar lay where the roots of the mountain of Illuin had been.
2)The Water of Awakening lay near the Red Mountains
3)Cuiviénen lay on the southern shore of the Sea of Helcar

It is not that hard. . .
 

someone guess ! please

Ok, a guess. Wasn't Cuivinen on the eastern shore of the Sea of Helcar? Number 3 is wrong?

Thats it Gothmog.

It was not that hard, was it ?

Nothing is hard when you know the answer. Can you find the false statement among these three?

1. Eöl named his son Maeglin at his birth. Later, Aradhel named him Lómion, so he has two names.
2. Eöl killed Aradhel and was thrown off a cliff as punishment.
3. It was Eöl that forged Anglachel/Gurthang and Anguirel (two prominent members of this site ;))

Good luck people!

1) is falls, Eol refused to name his son untill he was. . . can't remember, but he chose to wait. While Aradhel named him child of the twilight pretty early on.

Correct. Eöl named his son Maeglin when he was 12. Aradhel gave him the secret name Lomion, child of twilight, at his birth.

oh 12. Lets see if I remember it this time


1) Aragorns grandmother was named Ivorwen
2) Ulfang was the son of Ulwarth
3) Hador was succeeded by Barahir

B. is incorrect, because Ulwarth was the son of Ulfang.

Does that mean that you go now, Thinlómien?

a bit delayed
 

It is your turn Lommy. . .

Eek, sorry. I had totally forgotten about this thread.

1. Bilbo gave Lobelia Sackville-Baggins silver spoons.
2. Bilbo gave Adelard Took an umbrella.
3. Bilbo gave Milo Burroughs a bookshelf.

I breathe life into thee, thread!
 

3. is wrong. Milo got a gold pen and ink.

been a couple months...


1. Elladan and Elrohir saved Celebrian
2. Elladan and Elrohir fought at Pellenor Fields
3. Elladan and Elrohir carried the banner of Arwen Evenstar

The third one is wrong. The banner was carried by Halbarad.

(Yes, I'm practising for the trivia game. How did you know? :p)

Number three is wrong. Because they did do those other things.

Lommy is correct... i totally forgot it was my turn too

Thanks Gil and never mind. :)

1. Celebrimbor was Fëanor's grandson
2. Elrond was Beren's grandson
3. Finrod Felagund was Finwë's grandson

Number two is wrong. Where we have Fëanor-Curufin-Celebrimbor and Finwë-Finarfin-Finrod, there's either one Dior or one Eärendil more than it should be ;)

Of course. :)

I wonder how can this type of questions be made difficult in the first place...

Well, depends on how much you know. I can still remember the times when all these folks whose names started on "F" were the same to me...

What about this:

1. Aragorn returned the Palantír of Orthanc to Isengard.
2. Denethor never connected his Palantír with the Ithil-stone.
3. The fate of the Ithil-stone was not known until the War of the Ring.

Well, it must be 1, since 2 and 3 are wrong.
And since I know 1 is right...
Hmm...somehow I think this thread is too easy.

It would be more difficult in my opinion if someone made a statement (preferably vague) and the others should say if its true or false AND give a quote or something cause otherwise it would make no sense.

But Miggy, that's two TRUTHS and a lie... so you have to choose just one thing that's wrong.

Which, unless I am mistaken (and I hope I am not :o ), is only one in the options.
