It's a gift [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Doesn't Merry say it to Frodo in Conspiracy Unmasked, or does he specifically say "The Ring is no laughing matter". Am I close?

Not what Im going for.

Edit: And btw, the score is

Alaklondewen - 3
Beren87 - 3
Manardariel-1

Gandalf to Frodo when Frodo asks why the Ring came to Gollum instead of an Orc. (Do I have to look up the chapter? I think it's Shadow of the Past.)

Thats correct! Its not neccesary to look up the chapter as long as you provide enough information to show you know where it was at. Your turn!

Okey dokey...

Aye, remember to include the current score in your post of a new question. It is:

Alaklondewen - 3
Beren87 - 3
Manardariel-1
Aratlithiel-1

Oh yes, and the answer. 'Twas the Gaffer to Sandyman, the miller.

Beren, I think we've been left alone in the quiz rooms with no babysitter.

You are correct - your turn.

Hmm, how sad. I do hope we don't get into trouble [img]smilies/evil.gif[/img]

Alaklondewen - 3
Beren87 - 4
Manardariel-1
Aratlithiel-1

Oh, please, behave...
oh, the qoute. Was it Sam on the banks of Anduin when they were keeping watch?

Sorry, its against my nature...

Apparently, however, mistakes are not, the quote should read

Which makes a lot less sense.

Aragorn said it after their horrible night on the ledge of Caradhras.

Correct! (and quite sorry 'bout that Manardariel). Your go alaklondewen!

Thank you. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

A nastyily difficult one until I started reading and found it on the first page!

It was "they", probably meaning the citizens of the shire, about Bilbo's enexhaustible wealth and perpetual youth.

I figured most would not start on the first page. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] You are indeed right, please go on.

Well, I started at the prancing pony ('cause of "pay") but that wasn't it. So I started from the beginning.

Alaklondewen - 4
Beren87 - 5
Manardariel-1
Aratlithiel-1

Frodo to Gandalf regarding the Ring's effect on Bilbo - The Shadow of the Past.

Correct Aratlithiel! That's two for you!

Yeah, baby! I'm so much better at this one than the riddles.

Alaklondewen - 4
Beren87 - 5
Manardariel-1
Aratlithiel-2

Tricksy, I am.

Aye, a tricksy one indeed. I know it was said about Rivendell, but without looking it up I'm not sure by or to whom. Was it Frodo? To Sam perhaps?

Nope. I must confess I intentionally did a stumper. It will be hard even if you do look it up.

Need a nudge?

No, I found it, was Strider to Frodo.

Dagnabbit - I thought it was harder than that. Wiseguy.

*bowing*

Your turn, monsieur...

"Wiseguy", eh? I'll take that as a compliment. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Alaklondewen - 4
Beren87 - 6
Manardariel-1
Aratlithiel-2

Aragorn said it, when Merry asked him if he knew the rest of the 'lay' about Gilgalad.

Correct again alaklondewen! Your catching up.

Thank you, I shouldn't have let you get ahead me in the first place [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] You are a tough one to beat.

And the score is...
Alaklondewen - 5
Beren87 - 6
Manardariel-1
Aratlithiel-2

Hullo alaklondewen. I hade a feeling it would be in the wonderful woods of Lorien. The Mirror of Galadriel, when Galadriel is going through the test of the ring. 'you will give me the ring freely....' etc.

Ah, no problem, Galadriel to Frodo.

Edit: ACK! Answered at the same time.

You are both right, of course, but since Entmoot pressed 'Add Reply' sooner...

Entmoot, Welcome to the Downs!

Thanks alaklondewen. Very sorry Beren87! Unlucky.
ok you shouldnt have too much trouble at all.

Gandalf to Frodo upon his return to The Shire to discuss the Ring - Shadow of the Past.

I just noticed that all of the ones I've gotten so far are from this chapter - maybe I memorized it without knowing it!

Correct. Your turn

Thankee-sai

And the score is...
Alaklondewen - 5
Beren87 - 6
Manardariel-1
Aratlithiel-3
Entmoot - 1

Is it Elrond to Gandalf talking about Sam accompanying Frodo on the quest to destroy the ring and Elrond was trying to decide who was to be in the fellowship perhaps? Wow, long answer.

Dondagnirion
"He who cannot cast a treasure away at need is in fetters."

Nope, sorry.

Frodo to Glorfindel about riding on his horse. I laughed out loud the first time I read that part, just imagining Frodo's shreak at the thought.

I couldn't get past the image of a tiny hobbit atop a huge Elven steed. Kinda like a peanut on a squirrel. Hyah! Whoa, boy!

It's all yours, Beren.
