The Squatter of Amon Rûdh · 10-15-2002, 04:42 AM

Because Frodo had enough evidence to put him away for twenty years. It was to be released to the Shirrifs in the event of Frodo's death.

What is Ted Sandyman's occupation?

Eruhen · 10-15-2002, 06:17 AM

Don't tell anyone, but he's actually an undercover Elf, keeping both eyes on those foolish hobbits and keeping them in the dark, so the Elves can use them for power. (Sorry, guys. Just watched the Matrix for the fourth time.)

[ October 15, 2002: Message edited by: Squatter of Amon Rudh ]

Precioussss · 10-15-2002, 01:59 PM

101 days.it started as a nature walk North, but they got sidetracked because Gimli wanted to stop and pick some buttercups. Legolas threw a hissyfit because he broke a nail, and Aragorn had to act as a ref in the middle earth rugby championship that was played in Fangorn forest. it turned out that Merry and Pippin were playing in the game, so they were all reunited in the refreshment tent.

The Squatter of Amon Rûdh · 10-16-2002, 09:39 AM

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Precioussss · 10-16-2002, 02:54 PM

They were too lazy to leave Mordor/Angmar (where do the ringraiths live in their spare time, anyway?), so they let the other nine go without them.
..::How did Gandalf find out that Frodo had the one ring?::..

The Squatter of Amon Rûdh · 10-18-2002, 06:21 AM

He read it in the gossip column of the Hobbiton Gazette.

---------------------------------

What is a mathom?

Eruhen · 10-18-2002, 06:32 AM

It's a pet name that Hobbits call things that they love a lot; for instance, if Frodo had kept the Ring for much longer, he probably would have called it his 'mathom', like Gollum called it his 'precioussssssssssssssssssssss'.

What became of the three elven rings after the one ring was destroyed?

The Squatter of Amon Rûdh · 10-18-2002, 08:08 AM

Vilya turned bright purple and began to make butterflies appear at random;
Narya metamorphosed into a Monopoly house and Nenya started to make irritating noises.

The custodians of the Three donated them to a charity jumble sale by common consent.

------------------------------------

Where is the Hall of Fire?

Eruhen · 10-18-2002, 09:55 AM

Go out your front door, turn right, go straight for about 500 miles, then turn around 10 times quickly, and then dig a hole 1 mile straight down. It's right there! (Or it was the last time I checked. It moves sometimes.)

What was Gollum before he found the Ring?

The Squatter of Amon Rûdh · 10-18-2002, 10:07 AM

A chartered accountant.
------------------------
