I had hoped to prank you with my last puzzle, but you outplayed me. *bows*

Spot on for 6. 2, yes (with 'mae' sounding like 'my'). 1 I can't give you; you only got half of the clue right, unless you can clarify why 'briefly a ring-slinger, is attending' comes out as LING.
(I'll tell you now that anagrams are only involved in one clue.) 1. M?????? - West, briefly a ring-slinger, is attending. 2. MAEGLIN - Sounds like my smile goes from right to left. 3. ??E???? - One step on from a dwarf impaled by two thirds of a spear. 4. ???G??? - No light, and it sounds like no Hell either; it's all backwards! 5. ????L?? - Mother jumbled up the marbles. 6. MAEGLI? - A crazy omlette row? Never let it end. 7. ??????N - Take elements of two backwards countries, then add Earth (well, stone) and Air. Quote:

4. (gleam+n)?
|
7. Gem+A, with Lin as backward countries, but which ones?

Take backwards countries, then add Gem and A.......
|
No Hell sounds like 'no L' or 'N L'.

Quote:
' two backwards countries | Earth (well, stone) and Air' == 'maeg | lin' Quote:

Ma and Eg for Armenia and Georgia, backwards, and Li from Lithos for stone, and N from Nitrogen.

'dwarf' confuses me.
|
Spear could be JAVELIN, and two thirds of that is 'LIN'.
Funny how he too was gonna be impaled by a spear if it weren't for his 'ma'. |
5 is MA+ELGIN
|
For 1, LING comes from SLINGER

1. Mae+gl+in?
|
Spear comes up as GAR, and two thirds is GA, but there is only one anagram per your words, so that can't be it.

Then dwarf is Mim and the spear is Aeglos. One points to first letter, and two-thirds of Aeglos is AEGL. Impaled means inside, or in.
Or in other words, M+aegl+in |
Ring-slinger points to Green Lantern, which is abbreviated to GL. Attending is in, and we both know what first part of the clue means.

The word 'backwards' may help you here. hS |
Light could be 'GLEAM', except it reads MAELG backwards instead of MAEGL, and you said no more anagrams.
|
I did indeed say no more anagrams. Maybe apply some more backwards instead?
hS |
So we need to apply LG backwards too? But even then, it still lacks IN.
Unless we switch NO to German, for NEIN, and cut it in half...... |
Quote:
|
So if we remove L from GLEAM, we get GEAM, which is Maeg backwards. Then we add LI as in light, and N for No.
|
Bad Huinesoron. Very bad. Tempting me with the character I care about the most and then vanishing......:(
|
It's allllllllllll backwards. Not just part of it. Allllllll. [Spooky hand gestures]
(seriously just write his name backwards already) hS |
All right
Nilgeam. (Maeg+Li+N backwards) Good enough for you? |
1. MAEGLIN - West, briefly a ring-slinger, is attending.
2. MAEGLIN - Sounds like my smile goes from right to left. 3. MAEGLIN - One step on from a dwarf impaled by two thirds of a spear. 4. MAEGLIN - No light, and it sounds like no Hell either; it's all backwards! 5. MAEGLIN - Mother jumbled up the marbles. 6. MAEGLIN - A crazy omlette row? Never let it end. 7. MAEGLIN - Take elements of two backwards countries, then add Earth (well, stone) and Air. Theme: MAEGLIN Nil = none. So Nil Gleam = no light. Sounds like no Hell = no L, so Nil Geam. It's all backwards = Maeglin. And so it is over to you. hS |
In spite of what he's done
I still cherish him, even if I'm the only one For I feel sorry for him, and this is true And there's no one else I can turn to. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9uL3jJSLqDE |
Anyway, this puzzle is titled 'Urwen's Revenge'.
1. She is endlessly full in reverse, with German one spinning. 2. The largest Australian lizard goes in circles and gains direction. 3. Turn a class of vertebrates around. Shorten England. 4. A compound and an element spin together, chemically speaking 5. Deceive, according to number. It's all jumbled up. 6. A scheme changes vowels and a wheel cover gains one, in a muddle 7. A hormone and a lake without eye. It's all broken. 8. Elite skill in a daze. 9. A Tree changes a vowel. |
I remember hS saying he'd thought of making all the answers Maeglin, but I thought he was joking! That was BRILLIANT!
... Can someone explain to me what a ring-slinger is, and the element it gives to that clue? ... Urwen, most of your new clues don't seem to contain a straight element? |

9. ALDOR, from elder?

And ring-slinger clue indicates Green Lantern, abbreviated to GL. |

My mistake, it's a vowel, not vowels. |
Aldor from alder, then? :D
(Just kidding). |
