Resorted means to do something when all other options are out of the question like Feanor for example, he resorted to taking the boats by force because he beleived there was no other way

The Perky Ent 08-02-2004 11:53 AM

What does resorted mean? It isn't a word? That's weird, I thought it was. Anyways, resotred means it was something someone had to resort to. Anyways, no, Morgoth isn't the answer. You were closer with Feanor.

Gil-Galad 08-02-2004 11:55 AM

nice perky...but let Evisse choose which definiton is better

The Perky Ent 08-02-2004 11:58 AM

oh ho! A little contest now! Well, you'll probably win, I wasn't putting that much effort in it.

Evisse the Blue 08-02-2004 02:26 PM

Thanks, Gil-Galad, yours is better, to be fair. :D

Is it Eöl? (perilous - well, he was the dark elf; divider - separated Aredhel from her kin; resorted to murder when he was not allowed to leave Gondolin)

The Perky Ent 08-02-2004 05:26 PM

Nope. Feanor was closer.

Gil-Galad 08-02-2004 05:47 PM

Maedhros? or maybe another one of the SoF

The Perky Ent 08-02-2004 06:36 PM

Once again, closer with Feanor. Think, even if it doesn't make sense. What's someone or something related to Feanor

Gil-Galad 08-02-2004 06:41 PM

Finwe?

The Perky Ent 08-02-2004 06:47 PM

Close! A little lower1

Gil-Galad 08-03-2004 11:12 AM

FIngolfin? Finarfin?

The Perky Ent 08-03-2004 04:43 PM

Yes, Fingolfin is the hint. Now compare the life and times fo Fingolfin and the original question!

Gil-Galad 08-03-2004 05:09 PM

perilous-He charged againest Melkor alone
divider-he spilt the Noldorin house with his feud with Feanor
resorted-he had to follow Feanor so he can patch things up with his half-brother

The Perky Ent 08-03-2004 05:27 PM

No, it isn't Fingolfin. It isn't even a person. The hint was Fingolfin. Think about Fingolfin, and think about something perilous, that's a divider, and was resorted!

Gil-Galad 08-03-2004 05:30 PM

Pass of Helcarxe? it was perlious to cross, it divided the Noldorians and was the last resort for Fingolfin to get to Beleriand

The Perky Ent 08-03-2004 05:32 PM

Yes! Finally! your go!

Gil-Galad 08-03-2004 05:37 PM

you seem upset with me...

The Perky Ent 08-03-2004 05:42 PM

Sorry. I've just been waiting a long time to get that over with. I didn't mean it like that.

Gil-Galad 08-03-2004 06:21 PM

one of the chosen, chooser he was as well, then himself and his chosen one followed the high one bu did not follow him completely

NightKnight 08-07-2004 08:33 AM

Thingol?

Gil-Galad 08-07-2004 12:10 PM

nope

Morsul the Dark 08-07-2004 12:15 PM

Gandalf?

He was one of the chosen maia
He chose Bilbo
They follwed the king of the dwarfs Thurin Oakenshield but they seperated Bilbo to Gollum Gandalf to wherever he went

Gil-Galad 08-07-2004 12:17 PM

Close but your Wrong

Morsul the Dark 08-07-2004 12:21 PM

then I shall go with my second guess Saruman

One of the chosen Maia
Chose Wormtounge
Followed Sauron but for his own benefit so it was not complete

Gil-Galad 08-07-2004 12:23 PM

Close but your wrong

The Perky Ent 08-17-2004 10:00 PM

10 day rule :D

Here's the next one:

Magical, Powerful, Miracle

Morsul the Dark 08-17-2004 10:11 PM

The Perky Ent 08-18-2004 07:06 AM

nope!

Morsul the Dark 08-18-2004 10:38 AM

The Perky Ent 08-18-2004 03:29 PM

Nope, and congrats on the 1,000th post!

Morsul the Dark 08-18-2004 03:32 PM

Morsul the Dark 08-18-2004 03:52 PM

Sting?

The Perky Ent 08-18-2004 03:54 PM

nope.

Evisse the Blue 08-19-2004 01:49 AM

Eru?

The Perky Ent 08-19-2004 06:14 PM

Nope. It's in The Fellowship and ROTK. I don't think it's in TTT though!

paavo 08-20-2004 10:59 AM

this might be a little far fetched but could it be the moment when other people see Aragorn as his kingly self?

The Perky Ent 08-20-2004 03:19 PM

Nope. It's a thing!

paavo 08-21-2004 02:16 AM

Nenya?

The Perky Ent 08-21-2004 05:52 AM

Nope!
