Aha! One of the orcs to Pippen:

"Curse the Isengarders! Ugluk u bagronk sha pushdug Saruman-glob bubhosh skai"

mormegil 11-05-2005 12:11 PM

Was it the Isengarders that helped? I debated on whether or not to include that. Well done though

Guinevere 11-05-2005 01:44 PM

@Luthien-elvenprincess: Wow! Well done indeed! How did you find that one out with so few letters?!

luthien-elvenprincess 11-06-2005 07:47 AM

Yes, it was the Isengarders that did it for me...once I figured it out. There aren't too many word possibilities with a "s" as the second letter...therefore it had to be a vowel as the first letter. I just happened to have plenty of time to work on the puzzle of it yesterday! It was a very fun one to figure out and very satisifying to get! :) Thanks Morm and Guin.


Next one then:

And I had it before you put the L's in!

Kath 11-06-2005 04:33 PM

Argh! Firefoot! :mad: I asked for L's in the hope you'd wait for them so I could find the quote! *mutters curses*

luthien-elvenprincess 11-07-2005 06:09 AM

Yup, you're right, Firefoot!

Firefoot 11-07-2005 04:29 PM

Very good guesses on what I would consider an easier quote than my past ones.
