Double scrambled quotes.

[wilwarin538]

I noticed two threads here in Quotable Quotes and I have decided to join them together to make one thread. Thoses two thread were Unscramble the quotes (http://forum.barrowdowns.com/showthread.php?t=4269) and Sort out the letters!! (http://forum.barrowdowns.com/showthread.php?t=4289). :D

So this is how it works. The question asker picks a quote from the LotR, such as

One ring to rule them all.

and scrambles the letters in each individual word plus scrambles the words themselves, to make:

temh ot uerl lal nOe igrn

You don't have to keep the capital, I just did that to show you how it works. :p

You also need to say who said it. So here is the first question:

si lal litgrte edos lodg htta otn.

Who said it?

Enjoy! ;)

[Glirdan]

All that is gold does not glitter

That was Gandalf in the letter to Frodo, but Bilbo was the one who made the words up.

[wilwarin538]

I thought I'd start with an easy one. Good job! :D

You may continue. ;)

[Glirdan]

Well here goes:

niwd o dawnnigre, ofrm wens het tawh sewt, ot irgnb em ightnto od ouy

I think this one is a little more challenging. Good luck! :D

[Kath]

"What news from the West, O wandering wind, do you bring to me tonight?"

Which is Aragorn in his lament for Boromir methinks.

[Glirdan]

...correct my good lady! :D Your thread.

*mutters to self* and I thought it was challenging. :rolleyes:

[Kath]

Honestly Glirdan your edit means I can't do my Eowyn quote! :mad:

Ah well another time perhaps, next:

"si ddielr aehv ewll aegnrsstt eehr ew eht dfnou ahtt ety"

[Glirdan]

Well then take comfort Kath for you have stumped me with "aegrsstt"! :mad: I am stuck! I have found out the other words, but without that one word I can't seem to find anything that makes sense. Good one! :D

[Kath]

I do apologise, the reason you can't get it is because I missed out a letter. That word should be:

aegnrsstt
Hope that helps!

[Glirdan]

Darn you Kath! It's still got me stumped! I'd try and guess, but I can't for the life of me (or should I say death of me?) figure out what it is! There are numerous possiblitlites. But I shall not give up!!

[Mango of Doom]

"Well here is the strangest riddle we have yet found!" Legolas in The White Rider

[Kath]

Correct Mango of Doom! Your go.

[Mango of Doom]

Hinkt ams uoy thaw of leevs onw do?

[Glirdan]

" What do you think of Elves now Sam?"

I believe that was Frodo to Sam when they met the Elves on their wasy to Crickhollow.

[Mango of Doom]

Correct :)

[Glirdan]

This one might be a little trickyer:

eht aelon doost bdegir nopu eh adhosw ddeefi efir bhot adn adn

Good luck! ;)

[Kath]

"He stood alone upon the bridge and defied both shadow and fire."

About Gandalf but I don't know who said it unless maybe Aragorn.

[Glirdan]

Right quote, wrong person. It was Frodo singing a song about Gandalf in Lothlorien. But I'll give it to you anyway.

[Kath]

Thanks!

Next:
dlouw dlo fi a efginrs eghnrstt adegprs beeemmrr ehty beertt dorsw-ihlt ehirt oruy

[Glirdan]

"Your finger would remember their old strength better, if they grasped a sword-hilt"

That was Gandalf to Théoden at Edoras when Gandalf "awoke" Théoden from the darkness of the poison of Grima.

[Kath]

But of course! Your thread.

[Glirdan]

Thank you my lady.

cehko ot oopr rty ouy aeglmos. adn aehss dstu, aet eh ahtt natc'. mstu eh aerstv.

There you go. Have fun.

[wilwarin538]

You try to choke poor Smeagol. Dust and ashes, he can't eat that. He must starve.

Said by Gollum to Frodo.

[Kath]

"You try to choke poor Smeagol. Dust and ashes, he can't eat that. He must starve."

Poor old Smeagol to Sam and Frodo.

EDIT: Beat me to it Wilwa!

[Glirdan]

Well, you both are right. But since Wilwa beat you to it Kath, it's her thread. But at least you get the satisfaction of knowing that you were right! :D So take it away Wilwa.

[wilwarin538]

Thankee!

teh ubt mese kmsea ti avhreie knsedras, osteh fo plmsa kintgnih lal.

Good luck!

[Mango of Doom]

"But it makes the the darkness seem heavier, thinking of all those lamps!" Sam, in a journey in the dark

[wilwarin538]

But of course. :smokin:

[Mango of Doom]

Oeorgfntt i ttouhhg ouy dah all taobu me

[Kath]

"I thought you had all forgotten about me."

Which I think is Merry to Pippin but I will admit to not having looked.

[Mango of Doom]

Almost the correct quote, almost correct character :P

[wilwarin538]

Maybe: "I though you all had forgotten about me"

Pippin to Merry. :p

[Mango of Doom]

Again, neither are quite right :p

[Kath]

"I thought you had forgotten all about me."

And I'll say Merry to Gandalf then.

[Mango of Doom]

So close! Correct quote, wrong person.

[Kath]

Ah! Ah it's Frodo! Is it Frodo? To Sam?

[Mango of Doom]

Its Pippin to Gandalf, but you can have it :)

[Kath]

Thank you! I thought maybe if I acted slightly crazy you'd give it me to shut me up :p

Next:
ddee eerv uer I ahlls hist

[Mango of Doom]

This deed I shall ever rue or those words in some order :p

I seem to think this is Beregond, but I'm not sure :)

[Kath]

You are correct, and it was to people in general I believe. Your thread.

[Mango of Doom]

A tifg I fro hucs tno sak od

[Kath]

"I do not ask for such a gift."

Which sounds like Gimli to Galadriel.

[Mango of Doom]

Correct! (again :p)

[Kath]

Hey it's nice to be right sometimes! :D

Next:
ahs cnorw igkn aaign a eht ogt

[Mango of Doom]

The king has got a crown again!

I seem to think thats Frodo to Sam, but it may be Sam to Frodo. I'll guess at Frodo to Sam :)

[Kath]

Oooh good choice Mr Mango, and so over to you!

[Mango of Doom]

Flee loko raif oulf dan I.

Should be an easy one, no big words ;)

[Kath]

"I look foul and feel fair."

Aragorn to one of the Hobbit's, possibly Frodo?

[Mango of Doom]

Correct :)

[Kath]

Wahey no need for madness this time! :D

Next:

[Mango of Doom]

The morning may bring new counsel? I think thats Gandalf after Helms Deep.

[Kath]

Correct!

[Mango of Doom]

Shi he nebe osdeml nrrutede cegelhalnd cesin he to trowe oot sha.

Make it a bit of a hard one I think :)

[The Perky Ent]

Grr...this is harder than i thought. I have all the words except cegelhalnd, and have no clue as to the order. Just one word!!! :mad:

[Glirdan]

Grr...this is harder than i thought. I have all the words except cegelhalnd,

Tell me about it Perky. At least you have most of them. I'm stuck on cegelhalnd, nrrutede, and cesin!! I wish I could figure it out. So far I've got 3 right on this one thread. GO ME!!!! :D

[Firefoot]

"Too seldom has he been challenged since he returned to his Tower." Aragorn, in the Last Debate.

That was a good one - seldom, returned, and challenged all had me going for quite a while. Challenged was the key word, though.

[The Perky Ent]

Challenged! I KNEW IT! Curse you!

[Mango of Doom]

Correct, of course! Glad it annoyed you, I flipped to a random page in the nearest book, and I saw that line :D

[Dimcollowen]

wow!!! that was hard....hmmm....i would do one but i am getting the feeling the winner has too.....

[Firefoot]

Yes, if you guess the quote you get to post the new one. Here you go: emsna nad uclrosfn su oclsw reontycnmu lteevrsarl ievg ta su.

[Mango of Doom]

Countrymen give us scorful names and travellers scowl at us.

Aragorn talking about himself and the dunedain.

[Firefoot]

You bet. Take it away.

[Mango of Doom]

I aegv oyu ams gstni ot.

[Kath]

I gave Sting to you Sam.

Frodo to Sam.

[Mango of Doom]

Correct :)

[Kath]

Yay I'm back!

[Firefoot]

"We cannot leave him lying like carrion among these fould Orcs." Legolas to Aragorn and Gimli, about Boromir.

[Kath]

That's the one!

[Firefoot]

"dan eaaglgun ni sgaipsn optsl bigelnliuitlne esnw na goanl"

[Glirdan]

I figured some of them out but you've got me stumped Firefoot. I can't think of what it could be. Could you give a simple minded soul a hint?

[MyrddinDerwydd]

Love it!
...passing news and plots along in an unintelligible language...
Not sure who, speaking about the trees, I think in Fangorn forest.

[Knight of Gondor]

This is probably easy, but this is a fun game.

[Knight of Gondor]

"dan eaaglgun ni sgaipsn optsl bigelnliuitlne esnw na goanl"

"Passing news and plots along in an unintelligable language." Not sure what book or section it's from...

[The Sixth Wizard]

G'day everyone!

Swords are no more use. Gandalf. :)

"rgMotrh tAfer ot het dnse fo hte rthae!"

[Legate of Amon Lanc]

"After Morgoth to the ends of the earth!" Fëanor's speech in Valinor.

[Knight of Gondor]

Good job.

[ADubiousSource]

"Here do I swear fealty and service to Gondor..."

[Knight of Gondor]

Oo, I thought I had everyone stumped. :p

[Beregond]

It's been well over 10 days. Note: Periods and commas have been scrambled too. Have fun. :)


yhet het ednibh. nebe eys aedd, monedums edri aevh.

[Kath]

K, no books right now so I know this isn't entirely right but is it along the lines of:

"The dead have been summoned. Yes, they ride behind."

[Beregond]

You have the words correct, but they aren't quite in the right order. :)
