Odd PLACE Out - Page 4 - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Lindolirian · 01-22-2003, 04:47 PM

Gee whiz, there are so many answers for this one. Still not it!

Ultimatejoe · 01-22-2003, 11:02 PM

Tol Sirion is the only one with a name in Quenya?

Russandol · 01-23-2003, 11:32 AM

Dorthonion again as the other three were visited by Luthien Tinuviel.

Ultimatejoe · 01-23-2003, 04:45 PM

I think that when we throw these riddles together we REALLY should try to arrange them so there is only one possible solution.

Beren87 · 01-27-2003, 02:24 PM

I think we should stop spamming. That's impossible to do by the way.

Tol Sirion, the only one not repopuluated after it was sacked?

Lindolirian · 01-27-2003, 08:16 PM

Hint: They are all places that one Man has been. Except one, of course...

Beren87 · 01-27-2003, 08:23 PM

Well, Turin has been to everyone except for Tol Sirion I believe.

Lindolirian · 01-27-2003, 08:23 PM

Correct!

Beren87 · 01-27-2003, 08:30 PM

Great!

Gladden Fields
Mt.Doom
The Shire
Dale

elven maiden Earwen · 01-27-2003, 09:33 PM

dale because it is the only place frodo didnt go

Beren87 · 01-27-2003, 09:35 PM

Nope.

Ultimatejoe · 01-28-2003, 07:57 AM

The Shire is the only place west of the Misty Mountains?

Lyra Greenleaf · 01-28-2003, 01:25 PM

Dale was the only place that didnt have a battle named after it?
(it was called the battle of 5 armies right?)

Ultimatejoe · 01-28-2003, 03:04 PM

The Shire didn't have a battle named after it. The Battle that Bandorabas Took was in was called the Battle of the North Downs was it not? The only other battle in the Shire was called the Battle of Bywater.

Beren87 · 01-28-2003, 03:43 PM

Sorry to say their all wrong. It deals with an object.

Lindolirian · 01-28-2003, 04:21 PM

The Ring has not been to Dale. I think Bilbo went around it on his way to the Lonely Mountain.

Beren87 · 01-28-2003, 07:08 PM

Correct Lindolirian!

elven maiden Earwen · 01-30-2003, 10:42 PM

its been a while now so im going to post

Minas Tirth
Rivendell
Valinor
Shire

Beren87 · 01-30-2003, 11:42 PM

Elven Arwen Maiden, please read the Quiz Room Rules where it is clearly stated that Lindolirian has 10 days to post on this thread.

Lindolirian · 01-31-2003, 03:46 PM

Formenos
Menegroth
Mouths of Sirion
Angband

[ February 03, 2003: Message edited by: Lindolirian ]

Ultimatejoe · 01-31-2003, 07:23 PM

A king of the Eldar died at each one except the Mouths of the Sirion?

[ January 31, 2003: Message edited by: Ultimatejoe ]

Lindolirian · 02-02-2003, 10:10 AM

Not quite. I thought this one was very easy actually.

lathspell · 02-02-2003, 10:15 AM

Mouths of Sirion, I guess.

The other three all are fortified places or strongholds.

greetings,
lathspell

Lindolirian · 02-02-2003, 10:16 AM

Hmm.... And I'm even giving a subtle little hint...

Ultimatejoe · 02-03-2003, 07:18 PM

Only Formenos is in Valinor?

Pallando B.C · 02-04-2003, 04:30 AM

Formenos, since Mortal Men have been everywhere else. Maybe a bit too easy ?

lathspell · 02-05-2003, 04:38 AM

Mouths of Sirion is the only made by nature itself and not by Elves, Dwarves etc.

Lindolirian · 02-05-2003, 03:37 PM

They're all a place where something has been.

Pallando B.C · 02-11-2003, 03:57 AM

....except for ONE you mean.

May it be the Mouths of Sirion since Silmarils have never been there.

Quote:

Hmm.... And I'm even giving a subtle little hint...

And this hint you speak of...is it the icon that you did every post with regarding this question, the Star Emblem (which I did mine with). Was that meant to be an indication that the answer was indeed the Silmarils?

Of course, that's why it's "Odd PLACE out"

You are correct!

Pallando B.C · 02-11-2003, 04:33 PM

Ok, but was my instinct correct regarding your suttle hint?

Imladris
Lorien
Minas Tirith
Fangorn

Lindolirian · 02-11-2003, 06:53 PM

Yes, you were right about my hint.

Imladris in the only one not named after something or someone of the same name.

Other guesseses:

Minas Tirith because it isn't in close proximity to the Misty Mountains, or Fangorn, the only place where Men and Elves do not live. Also, Imladris is the only one on the Western side of the Misty Mountains.

Pallando B.C · 02-12-2003, 01:46 AM

No, none of them.

Think of their residents.

Lyra Greenleaf · 02-12-2003, 02:01 PM

Fangorn is the only place where the residents are trees/ents!

It's also the only place where residents don't have elvish blood

Imladris is the only place where all the fellowship went together? (Oh thats not residents. Sorry)

Is there a hint in the fact that you're using Imladris instead of Rivendell?

Lindolirian · 02-12-2003, 06:31 PM

Imladris is the only one where people of many races live. In Lorien, it's only elves, Fangorn, only Ents, and in Minas Tirith, only Men. In Rivendell, the Elves of course, at least one hobbit, and Aragorn used to live there.

Pallando B.C · 02-13-2003, 02:19 AM

That's it Lindolirian. The floor is yours....

Lindolirian · 02-13-2003, 04:42 PM

Edoras
the Morannon
Isengard
Dol Amroth
Pelennor Fields

lathspell · 02-16-2003, 10:26 AM

Pelennor Fields: all have to do with ringed places (mountains and gate or walls and gate), except this one.

Gil-Galad · 02-16-2003, 12:42 PM

i know its not my turn but i thought of one and can someone figure it out and it doesn't have to count or anything and don't put any post saying i'm nt suppose too and stuff.

1. Dol Amroth
2. Osgiliath
3. Lindon
4. Grey Havens
5. Erebor

Gil-Galad · 02-16-2003, 12:56 PM

Edoras or Dol Amroth thats where evil hasn't attacked or been?
