Name the event - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

One Axe to Rule them All · 04-26-2003, 04:19 PM

Somebody names a place, you name the event that happened there ok? i'll start. P.S. i'm new to this, so it's kinda easy

Minas tirith

**The Saucepan Man** · 04-26-2003, 08:08 PM

Weeeell, rather a lot happened in that particular place ...

But I will plump for either the seige during the War of the Ring or the self-immolation of Denethor.

Durelin · 04-26-2003, 08:14 PM

Maybe you should give clues and then have someone try to figure out what event in Tolkien's works you're talking about. Maybe a quote or characters involved or the goal of the end result or what led to it, etc, etc. I don't know, that may be a bit hard, but we all need work for our brains! Right? Well...maybe not...well, we know Saucepan Man will take a crack at it no matter what. Right Saucepan Man? [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Too right, Durelin. Can't keep a good Saucepan Man down! [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

I concur with your suggestions, however.

One Axe to Rule them All · 04-27-2003, 11:11 AM

actually, think of a very important event within the siege of minas tirith

and thank you for the helpers Durelin.

Phervasaion · 04-27-2003, 12:20 PM

Was it when Theoden was killed by the lord of the Nazgul? Or was it when Eowyn and Merry Destroyed the lord of the Nazgul

One Axe to Rule them All · 04-27-2003, 12:22 PM

Phervasaion is right with when eowyn and merry kill the lord of the nazgul!

Phervasaion's turn

[ April 27, 2003: Message edited by: One Axe to Rule them All ]

Phervasaion · 04-27-2003, 12:33 PM

Ok, erm, this ones pretty easy but il use it as a first one.

Wethertop, and its when Aragorn and the hobits were stopping there for a night.

One Axe to Rule them All · 04-27-2003, 12:39 PM

Frodo get's stabbed by the nazgul blade?

Phervasaion · 04-27-2003, 03:26 PM

Yep thats right, Frodo gets stabbed witha Morgul blade.

Your turn.

One Axe to Rule them All · 04-27-2003, 07:45 PM

How about

Minas Tirith, after the ring is returned

Beren87 · 04-27-2003, 08:39 PM

Returned? When was the ring ever returned to Minas Tirith? Last time I checked, M.T. didn't exactly own the ring and there was this little escapade about not bringing there that involved the death of some steward guy.

One Axe to Rule them All · 04-28-2003, 09:30 AM

i'm sorry, i didn't mean returned, i meant destroyed

04-28-2003, 11:45 AM

Eowyn was healed?

Airehiriel · 04-28-2003, 11:56 AM

Aragorn married Arwen?

One Axe to Rule them All · 04-28-2003, 12:22 PM

You're right with aragorn married Arwen

your turn Airehiriel

The Perky Ent · 02-07-2004, 10:58 AM

Airehiriel? If you still write on the barrow-downs, post a new question on here!!!!

Beren87 · 02-07-2004, 02:27 PM

It's been quite long enough. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

I'll throw one out:

Rivendell, shortly after the Council, but before the Fellowship departing.

Evisse the Blue · 02-07-2004, 02:41 PM

The members of the Fellowship were chosen?

Beren87 · 02-07-2004, 02:54 PM

The Fellowship was more or less chosen in the council. [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img]

The Shards of Narsil were reforged into Anduril?

Thorongil · 02-08-2004, 05:43 AM

Bilbo giving Sting and the mithril vest to Frodo?

Beren87 · 02-08-2004, 12:20 PM

NightKnight has the answer I was looking for!

NightKnight · 02-08-2004, 03:13 PM

What happened in Emyn Muil?

Miriel · 02-08-2004, 03:22 PM

Frodo and Sam captured Gollum, and he became their guide?

NightKnight · 02-08-2004, 03:38 PM

Yup, carry on. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

10 DAY RULE! New Question: Paths of the Dead

symestreem · 02-21-2004, 11:21 AM

Nothing much actually happened at the Paths of the Dead except the dead people *resists bad pun* started following the Grey Company. It was at the Stone of Erech that they actually swore to fulfill their oath.

The Perky Ent · 02-21-2004, 11:43 AM

Yep! that was a trick question!

Miriel · 02-22-2004, 05:08 AM

Argh, my apologies, forgot about this thread.

symestreem · 02-22-2004, 03:31 PM

Rammas Echor.

NightKnight · 02-22-2004, 03:59 PM

The orcs and the rohirrim entered the fields of Pelennor?

symestreem · 02-23-2004, 10:02 AM

That'll do. Please proceed, NightKnight.

NightKnight · 02-23-2004, 10:43 AM

Erebor.

Estanesse · 02-23-2004, 01:14 PM

The battle of five armies and the destruction of a dwarf kingdome by Smaug.

NightKnight · 02-23-2004, 03:58 PM

Wrong ones.

Gil-Galad · 02-23-2004, 04:25 PM

Foundation of Erebor laid... ARkenstone found.... Dain Ironfoot became king

NightKnight · 02-23-2004, 04:37 PM

The Arkenstone's what I was looking for.

The Perky Ent · 02-24-2004, 02:23 PM

Um...well...it's your turn Trogdor, i mean Gil-Galad

Gil-Galad · 02-24-2004, 04:11 PM

hmmm.. lets see....and becareful Perky, i might Burninate Fangorn
