Magor68 New Quiz Thread
 

Greetings all - I'm back (okay, I was actually back once before, but this time I should be back for a while). Did you miss me?

My first question is, what have I got in my pocket?

- Cirdan (formerly Maglor68)

Not fair! not fair! It isn't fair, my precious, is it, to ask us what it's got in its nassty little pocketses.

It was a trick question - I'm not wearing any pants! HA HA HA HA HA HA HA

Or is that too much information?

Just kidding. Here's an easy one -

Other than Treebeard, who is the longest ruling being in Middle Earth (as of the beginning of the fourth age)?

- Cirdan / Maglor68

Longest ruling? Meaning Tom doesn't count? How about Galadriel? Or you?

P.s. WAY too much information !

Longest ruling? Cirdan.

hmmm That would be some Silvan or Nandorin elf that established a kingdom in the far far east that we have never heard of - But I guess Elrain (as always) is right [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

I don't know - technically Turambar guessed it when he said "you". Telchar, who should I give it to?

- Cirdan / Maglor68
