Thank you!
Three is correct.
Your turn.

If I've messed this up, sorry.

No/,/no/,/no/./You/know/it/isn't/.

Would the speaker be Trufflehunter?

Midge · 10-27-2009, 03:19 PM

Yes! You got all of it! Is there some kind of bumping we could do in other threads to get more involvement, do you think?

*Not that I don't enjoy quoting with you, Princess, but it's fun with more competition, too...*

Midge · 11-11-2009, 11:47 PM

*bump* Varna... your turn.

The bad thing about this is that you can't bump a thread by editing a post.

Only by posting a new one.

***Varnafindë*** · 11-12-2009, 10:16 PM

Sorry, again, that I didn't notice your answer ...

I'll make things easy for myself by posting a short quote:

"A/_o_r/_r_m/_h_/w_r_d/_f/_e_/!/I/_a_e/_e_r_/o_/s_c_/t_i_g_/."

GrayMouser · 11-13-2009, 12:20 AM

Sorry, don't know the rules for the game. Are you supposed to post the answer right away or wait for other people to guess?

This is like the Quote Game in the JRR Tolkien section, but this one is to be from quotes in the 7 books that form "The Chronicles of Narnia".

Basically, you take a quote and remove every second letter, and put a slash between words, and punctuation marks. A solution must include all words solved correctly and the correct speaker identified. Whoever solves the last element, be it quote, speaker, or both, posts the next one. It is not necessary for the one solving to say who it is said to, anything about the context, or what book it's found in.

Example: "I_/i_/m_/s_o_d/_h_n_o_/,/w_t_/i_/I/_i_l_d/_h_/W_l_."

Answer: "It is my sword Rhindon, with it I killed the Wolf." Peter Pevensie(from Prince Caspian)

Anything from the books: The Magician's Nephew, The Lion the Witch and the Wardrobe, The Horse and His Boy, Prince Caspian, The Voyage of the Dawn Treader, The Silver Chair or The Last Battle, is fair game. No movie quotes.

Suggestions for posting:
Some gamers find this method best, fastest, easiest and most accurate. When you've found your quote, type it all in without blanks, simply using the '/' instead of a space, as well as before and after each punctuation mark. Just after a punctuation mark can be a convenient place for a carriage return, if the spacing looks good. After typing, check for spelling and to see that all the words are correct. Then go through and replace every other letter with an underscore '_' - this goes quickly if you use the 'forward arrow' key to advance, use the 'delete' key and then add the underscore where the letter was.

We try our best to solve the quotes without looking them up. However, if the one who posted the quote is away or not responding, a player may look up an attempted full solution to see if it was correct before moving on and posting the next quote.

Rules of the game.

Now for that juicy quote!

"A/_o_r/_r_m/_h_/w_r_d/_f/_e_/!/I/_a_e/_e_r_/o_/s_c_/t_i_g_/."

Speaker is Jadis, the White Witch. In an effort to get more people involved, I'll leave the fun part for others.

***Varnafindë*** · 11-13-2009, 04:08 PM

The speaker is correct.
GrayMouser, you're welcome to solve the quote - in full or in part. We do indeed appreciate more involvement.

GrayMouser · 11-15-2009, 08:57 AM

"A door from the world of men! I have heard of such things.

***Varnafindë*** · 11-15-2009, 09:34 PM

That's correct, GrayMouser!

We've then got both the speaker and the complete quote.
You're next

GrayMouser · 11-16-2009, 03:54 AM

A/_i_k_n/_r/_o/_f/_o_d/_i_e/_n/_a_h/_f/_h_s_/t_w_r_/_o_l_/n_t/_a_e/_e_n/_m_s_/.

Midge · 11-16-2009, 10:56 AM

"A firkin or so of good wine"...

*Rarrr* rule... I ... hate... rule!

Okay, I'm back. For at least ten more seconds.

***Varnafindë*** · 11-16-2009, 04:02 PM

GrayMouser · 11-17-2009, 05:24 AM

so far so good

Midge · 11-17-2009, 05:49 PM

each! I couldn't think of each.

GrayMouser · 11-18-2009, 03:29 AM

Kee-rect! and the speaker?

Midge · 11-18-2009, 04:03 PM
