Yes. :p Besides, sometimes I miss seeing the quotes in all caps... the way they all used to be before the software switched to VBulletin, when no one could figure out how to keep the letters in caps. (If anyone is interested, the way to do it is to put the [ QUOTE ] in lowercase - [ quote ].)

But still the sunken stars appear
In dark and windless Mirrormere;
There lies his crown in water deep,
Till Durin wakes again from his sleep.

I return!
And I seek more "W"s...

Firefoot

07-26-2005 06:56 AM

Let's try N's.

"A's"

I tell you...popping in and out occationally really doesn't work too well while trying to guess any of the quotes.

A crazy amount of E's. Also more W's than I've seen in most quotes.

There is some new devilry here, devised for our welcome no doubt. But I know now where we are: we have reached the First Deep, the level immediately below the Gates.

Well done however I am not familar with this Grandelf person you give credit to for the quote.

Just a question to you. How did you get this one? Was it the word New?

the guy who be short

07-26-2005 09:02 AM

It was the "know now where we are" bit... even though you left off an "a"! Naughty mormegil... :p

Um... new quote. Lessee...

Can't find a good un at the moment. Be back later.

Yeah, I had that part of it too... and I even found the other place in Moria where Gandalf says it (Chamber of Mazarbul). Gr... :rolleyes:
