Who can Stump me

Gorthol the Dread Helm · 07-22-2003, 01:06 AM

Maybe this could be a fun game.

You ask me a question

If I can't answer or answer incorrectly, then you get to host the game.

Let's please avoid quotes as there are allready threads for that

The whole realm of Middle Earth is allowable, I do however have an affliction to the Books of Lost Tales.

I don't claim to be a genious of Tolkien works, I just think it will make a great game.

ASK AWAY!!!

Rosie Gamgee · 07-22-2003, 05:32 PM

Oooo. I just can't resist a challenge. Let me think up a real stumper. Hmm . . . .

This elf, who dwelt in the forest, was executed by being thrown off a cliff.

Golly, that question was rather hard to word. It's probably a sinch, though.

***Sister Golden Hair*** · 07-22-2003, 07:18 PM

If there is some way that you can revise this game Gorthol, then I will allow it, but the way it is now, it is limited to only a small amount of posters that can play at the same time. Or am I mistaken?

Also, all posters- Note the sticky at the top of the main page concerning game threads.

Gorthol the Dread Helm · 07-22-2003, 08:51 PM

To Rosie

I'm going to say Eöl the dark elf. He dwelt in the forest in heart and soul, but was executed because he was forced to dwell in Gondolin and while trying to kill his son, he killed his wife (Turgon's sister) instead.

To SGH

As many people that want to ask can ask. I'll answer them in the order they come. If you want to end this thread its not a problem.

No, I don't want to end the thread. I just wanted to make sure that it was a game that everyone could join in on.

Radagast The Brown · 07-23-2003, 07:11 AM

Gorthol, is there a time limit to the one who answers the questions?
My question: what are the names of the blue wizards. (Valinor Names) and of Saruman and Radagast in Valinor?

Gorthol the Dread Helm · 07-23-2003, 07:36 AM

Blue Wizards: Alatar and Pallando
Saruman: Curumo
Radagast: Aiwendil
Gandalf: Olorin

I believe that 36 hours should be sufficient to answering questions

Radagast The Brown · 07-23-2003, 07:38 AM

Ok.

which Maia made the Ulumúri, the horns of Ulmo that are wrought of white shell?

Gorthol the Dread Helm · 07-23-2003, 07:46 AM

Salmar created the white horns of Ulmo

Radagast The Brown · 07-23-2003, 07:48 AM

Right.

Who was the maiar who was Varda's handmaiden and one of the greatest of the maiar?

Gorthol the Dread Helm · 07-23-2003, 09:41 AM

Ilmare

Radagast The Brown · 07-23-2003, 10:19 AM

Right. (I have more question, I just want other people to ask questions...)

Elf Girl · 07-26-2003, 11:10 AM

Which of the Valier did Tolkien originally have be a Maia?

Great Question!!!
I honestly don't know, but I'm going to answer with Tulkas.

***Fat middle*** · 07-27-2003, 04:48 AM

Tulkas is not a Valier!! He would stumped you indeed if he'd what you have said

I think the answer is Estë. She was originally supposed to be the number one of the maiar.

Radagast The Brown · 07-27-2003, 04:56 AM

Now, after Elf Girl stumped you, we suppose to stump Elf Girl, right?

Tulkas is too a Valier, he just came last out of everone.

Radagast The Brown · 07-27-2003, 11:20 AM

No, Tulkas is not a Valie. The Valier are the female Valar. Tulkas is a male Vala.

Gorthol the Dread Helm · 07-27-2003, 12:14 PM

OH MAN!!! That was a HUGE mistake on my part! My apologies!

Elf Girl · 07-27-2003, 01:51 PM

Fat Middle was correct, it was Estë, not Tulkas! So stump me. (Knows that she will be stumped immediately.)

And Valie is the singular of Valier. Just as Vala is the singular of Valar. (So you can't have 'a Valier' or 'a Valar'.)

Another year's gone by, and I was thinking once again, How can I take this losing hand and somehow win? Just give me One Good Year To get my feet back on the ground. I've been chasing grace; Grace ain't so easily found One bad hand can devil a man, chase him and carry him down. I've got to get out of here, just give me One Good Year!
