She most certainly is. Well done, alak. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

alaklondewen 06-08-2003 05:52 PM

Thank you, my noisy friend.

What class did I take that brought me to the Barrow Downs?

Beren87 06-08-2003 06:47 PM

A study in mental disorders? [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

alaklondewen 06-08-2003 08:10 PM

I've definately taken a few of those, but none of them lead me here. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] Good try, though, Beren.

aragornreborn 06-09-2003 06:59 PM

A Children's Literature class?

alaklondewen 06-09-2003 10:44 PM

Yes! Very good. I believe the board is now yours.

aragornreborn 06-10-2003 09:03 AM

Thank you. Well, I had a little trouble deciding what question to pose. But here it is! If this one is too easy I'm going to have to be harder and more cryptic next time! (I've been taking notes from Saucepan Man [img]smilies/evil.gif[/img] )

Who introduced me to Tolkien?

The Saucepan Man 06-10-2003 10:20 AM

Your Dad checked out the Hobbit audio cassettes from the library and you listened to it on a long car trip. You absolutely loved it.

Therefore, I would say your father.

aragornreborn 06-10-2003 05:34 PM

Ohhhhh, and it would have to be you, of course! [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img]

Yeeeeeeees, that's what happened. Your go.

No more Mr. Nice Guy... [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

P.S. Saucepan Man - Oh, cool, you now have a title (you know what I mean). Very nice.

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

What football club do I support?

Beren87 06-10-2003 08:56 PM

Chelsea? and (of course) England.

Although, I'm more of a West Ham person myself. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

The Saucepan Man 06-11-2003 08:21 AM

Blue is the colour, football is the game
We're all together, and winning is our aim
So cheer us on through the sun and rain
'Cause Chelsea, Chelsea is our name


*Ahem* Yes, Beren, you are correct. Chelsea is indeed my club. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

And I do of course support my country too (good luck to the lads tonight against Slovakia.)

Ha..ha..ha. [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img]

What does my girlfriend call herself relating to this site?

aragornreborn 06-11-2003 01:54 PM

Faye Took, perhaps?

Beren87 06-11-2003 02:16 PM

Ah. No. That's not quite what I mean. (That was a long time ago)

*insert ackward pause here*

Anyway, it's more of a title than anything. I'll give a hint, "Barrow-_______".

aragornreborn 06-11-2003 03:22 PM

*insert my own awkward pause*

Forgive me.

Let me just think about this one...

vanwalossien 06-12-2003 02:16 AM

She calls herself a Barrow-Widow, doesn't she?

Orofaniel 06-12-2003 11:52 AM

I think you are right, it is Barrow-Widow.....

Yay!!! this is my 100th POST!!!!!!!!!!!!! [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

That she does vanwalossien.

Jokingly, I hope.

vanwalossien 06-12-2003 02:06 PM

Hopefully she's joking, otherwise I think you're dangerously addicted to the Barrow-Downs..

Ok, question about me... What is the Sindarin translation of my real name?

Beren87 06-12-2003 02:11 PM

Dûnhísië? or is that Quenya...or am I just wandering lost in the woods somewhere..?

vanwalossien 06-12-2003 02:21 PM

No, that's not it
EDIT: And yes, that must be a Quenya word. 'Hisië' is 'mist' in Quenya, isn't it?

[ June 12, 2003: Message edited by: vanwalossien ]

aragornreborn 06-13-2003 06:20 AM

Well I don't know your real name nor am I anything remotely resembling anyone remotely knowledgeable about Sindarin.

But judging from Beren's Quenyan guess, does the Sindarin version go along the lines of Eriahithlain? At least, those are two roots that I put together. It does have a nice ring to it...

vanwalossien 06-13-2003 07:28 AM

Nope, not that either. I posted it only a week ago or something, and (hint follows)I think Beren has seen it, he posted after me on that thread.

vanwalossien 06-18-2003 02:32 PM

Any guesses? It's not that difficult, just browse a bit and you'll find it..

Orofaniel 06-18-2003 02:34 PM

May we have a hint, perhaps?

vanwalossien 06-19-2003 06:49 AM

It starts with H. I posted it somewhere in the Barrow-Downs forum, it has been mentioned in Languages also, I think, a long time ago...

alaklondewen 06-19-2003 09:22 PM

Yes! I found it...your Sindarin name is Hiriel...very pretty. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

vanwalossien 06-22-2003 04:38 PM

Correct, you go [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

alaklondewen 06-28-2003 11:06 PM

Sorry for the delay. This is easy, so I'm sure several of you will know this without looking for it. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

What is my major study in school?

Sophia the Thunder Mistress 07-03-2003 12:22 PM

Psychology... though why anyone would pick it over Philosophy is something I'll never understand...

[img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] Sophia

alaklondewen 07-03-2003 05:01 PM

Sophia, we shall talk about the above comment in private. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] You're correct, of course, so please carry on.

Sophia the Thunder Mistress 07-05-2003 06:32 AM

Muahahaha! or, oops, I mean...

Should be very easy:

What is the title of my blogspot site?

Lyra Greenleaf 07-05-2003 06:44 AM

"A Turbulent Wind". It's your homepage- that's hardly challenging is it!

But I'm forever blowing bubbles- pretty bubbles in the air!
(Translation- me too!)

Sophia the Thunder Mistress 07-05-2003 07:24 AM

lol, not difficult at all.

Your go, and er... to add a link in your sig copy and paste in that:

[*URL=http://*]web page[/URL]

with the address inthe proper spot and the text you want where "web page" is now, and take out the asterisks. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Hope that's helpful!

Thank you kindly, oh thunderous one.

Fill in the blanks of my ex-signature:

It is still around somewhere, so it doesn't have to be from memory!
