Unnecessary. I have the answer.

"Well, merry people! (...) What time by the moon is this? Your lullaby would waken a drunken goblin! Yet I thank you."

Bilbo to the elves in Rivendell.

Guinevere · 01-03-2008, 04:25 PM

Correct, of course. Now it's your turn, McCaber! (btw, welcome to the game!

)

McCaber · 01-03-2008, 04:45 PM

Wow, that round took much longer than it should have. Thanks, Guinevere. My quote is:

hm, "in--i-i-i--n---" is an interesting word...

Gandalf to Pippin

(Thank you for asking for the i's, GreatElvenWarrior!)

McCaber · 01-04-2008, 03:42 PM

Of course, Guinevere. The thread is yours to command.

Well there was a one letter word and I had already guesses and "A" so it had to be an "I".

Good job, you're very good at this game!

Guinevere · 01-06-2008, 02:52 PM

Thank you! (I've had a lot of practice!

)

Here is a new one for you to guess:

"--/ ----/ --/ ------/. -/ --/ --/ --/ -------/. ---/ ----/ --/ -----/ ------/ -------/ -/ -----/ ---/ ---/ --/ -------/. -/ ------/ ---/ -----/ -------/. -/ ----/ ----/, ---/ -/ ----/ ---/, ---/ -/ ------/ ------/!"

TheGreatElvenWarrior · 01-07-2008, 08:50 AM

How about an "A"?

Aganzir · 01-07-2008, 10:46 AM

And some T again, please.

TheGreatElvenWarrior · 01-07-2008, 11:22 PM

"i"?

Guinevere · 01-08-2008, 07:47 AM

AIT (sorry for the delay!)

TheGreatElvenWarrior · 01-08-2008, 08:49 AM

D's?

McCaber · 01-08-2008, 10:43 AM

While I really want to ask for Y just to spell "DAINTY", that's not going to happen. Instead, I ask for an "S".

Aganzir · 01-08-2008, 03:40 PM

An O, please.

Tuor in Gondolin · 01-09-2008, 09:08 AM

"r"s?

Guinevere · 01-09-2008, 01:46 PM

RAIN DOTS

"--/ -od-/ is/ -ro--n/. I/ -o/ to/ --/ -at--rs/. And/ ---n/ in/ t--ir/ -i--t-/ -o--an-/ I/ s-a--/ not/ no-/ --/ as-a--d/. I/ -----d/ t--/ --a--/ s-r--nt/. A/ -ri-/ -orn/, and/ a/ --ad/ da-/, and/ a/ -o-d-n/ s-ns-t/!"

Someone might guess it now

McCaber · 01-09-2008, 02:18 PM

Right you are, Guinevere. The answer is this:

"My body is broken, I go to my fathers. And even in their mighty company I shall not now be ashamed. I felled the black serpent. A grim morn, and a glad day, and a golden sunset!"

Guinevere · 01-09-2008, 02:34 PM

Well done, McCaber!

McCaber · 01-09-2008, 02:58 PM

Thank you. All right, here's the next quote:

"---/ ----/ ---/ --/ --/ ---/ ------/, -------/. -----/ ----/ ------/ --/ ----/ ----/, ---/ --/ ------/, ---/ ----/ -/ ---/ ----/ -------/ ----/ -----/, ---/ ----/ ---/."

Aganzir · 01-10-2008, 08:40 AM

It seems I will never have enough of T parties.

TheGreatElvenWarrior · 01-10-2008, 09:06 AM

A?

Guinevere · 01-10-2008, 10:02 AM

Are there any O's?

McCaber · 01-10-2008, 11:22 AM

OAT

Aganzir · 01-11-2008, 08:40 AM

Any N's?

Tuor in Gondolin · 01-11-2008, 09:10 AM

"m"s?

Samwise · 01-11-2008, 12:17 PM

"S", as in Sam, Pat

?

Guinevere · 01-11-2008, 02:15 PM

Merry: "You must not go to the havens, Legolas. There will always be some folk, big or little, and even a few wise dwarves like Gimli, who need you."

Sorry, I just couldn't resist...

McCaber · 01-11-2008, 03:37 PM

Of course, Guinevere. Looks like I need some tougher quotes. The thread is yours.

Guinevere · 01-12-2008, 10:37 AM

OK, here's a new one:

Quote:

---/ ---'-/ ------/ -------/, --/ ---/, ----/ ---/ ----/ ----------/ ---/ -------/ ----/ -------/ --/ ----/ ----/, ----/ ---/ ----/ ----/ -------/?

Aganzir · 01-12-2008, 10:54 AM
