From Werewolf...
 

The Seer dreamed of wolves. = we move the dress of leader.

The Seer found the leader was a wolf in sheeps clothing? (It's a stretch.)

The Hunter got a wolf. = Flunt, he goeth to war.

Guess the hunter was Flunt.

The wolves win! = The W's now live!

Everone knows that W stands for wolf.

Middle Earth Mirth = hitler mirth me add
This illustrates the sadistic side of Downers' humor.

The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum =switchboards furrows mound noise
Obviously it means the interesting thought that is provoked by BDer communication, at least if one has dial-up.

I wasn't going to post until I knew what Bb's original quote was she took from, but I don't want to let this one go, as it points out how one of our fellow downers came into being:

Firefoot blazes into the spotlight, here, with a highly illregular (just like the 'downs) Latin phrase: fiet foro. What does that mean, you say? Together, most literally "I was made by the forum".

Children of Eru, meet the Child of Wights.

Iron Hills is really a shrill ion
Who should have known that atoms could produce a high-pitched sound

Imlad Morgul is a symbol of Tolkien's anti-mao'istic thoughts: dull grim mao

Tumladen is just a word for mute land- Fitting don't you think ?

fundamentals headed grim =Middle Earth Fun and Games.
Obviously the dark side of BDer humor.

vetoes him =The Movies.
The attitude of many BDers towards Peter Jackson and his interpretation of LOTR.

newcomers connive ads= Novices and Newcomers.
The impulsiveness of many newcomers to our forum to splatter the discussion with on topic/ off topic advertisements.

Okay, so the last one wasn't that clever. At least I tried....

jerk on aspect: peter jackson

Ouch! That's not nice. ;)

Let me try him.

Peter Jackson = rep neat jocks

And also...

Dol Amroth = lord o' math

Minas Tirith = I sat in mirth

Sword...ish?
 

Gurthang = gag hunt'r
I abuse gags! I'm so sorry! :rolleyes:

mormegil = lime morg
A place of the dead that takes on a sour green tint.

Anguirel = Ariel gun (sp)
Always looking up, and shooting that way, too.

Formendacil = For men, dial 'C'
All along he's been an add for a dating service! :eek:

Kitanna = A tin kan
???(I got nothin'.)

Alas! The Barrow-Downers' true names can be discovered through the power of anagrams!

Folwren's name is Ren Wolf. It's surprising that she isn't lynched more often.

The Squatter of Amon Rhudh is in reality HM (His Majesty) Hudson F Quartet-O'Harte. Who knew we had royalty in our midst?

The Barrow-Wight is Theo W Warbright, and Bêthberry's name is the deceptively obvious Beth Berry.

THE Ka, or Kate H, always uses her last initial rather than her full surname.

And to finish, I must reveal my true identity as Al Carillo.

Gurthang becomes Than Rug G
Wow, someone like carpets a little to much.

Morai becomes Ai, mor!
Sounds a little spanish to me.

and lastly,

Glirdan becomes Ran gild
What dirty little secrets am I hiding? :p

Who or what is Tom Bombadil?
 

Well, I think the answer quite obvious, for his name tells all:

Tom Bombadil = Idl[e] atom bomb.

Well, he's certainly caused an explosion in Fordim's poll.

Tol-in-Gaurhoth give us either a guilt or honor hat to wear. Which is rather true.

It's time to reveal the truth about this site.

The Barrow-downs discussion forum is really a front for a nuclear physicists' gambling ring:

"Much odd, sour, or raw fission won bets".

What do they wager? The site advertises Members list, or:

"bet elms' rims"

(or is that a demented Gollum saying "Mm, blisterses"?)

When the nuclear physicists are criticized for the gambling, they blame another department, saying "Active Topics" or:

"vice at optics!"

There are those that have tried to stop the depravity, but they are Novices and Newcomers who don't know that:

"No downer can mess vice".

And one of the most infamous threads offers a piece of sordid advice: Canonicity: the book or the reader? or:

"the contradictory bookie - he earn!"

And, like other gambling havens, the Downs draws a healthy crowd with the lure of gambling: Translations from the Elvish or

"Reservations - half month list".

Or perhaps a new ending to the famous Opera? :p

Arrows 'nd Bows= borrows dawns. Take from it what you will, but I thought it was a rather poetic description of this thread.

How Do You Imagine Other Bders?=intermediary show dough oboe. A wacky guess helps end an argument over how a certain Bder looks and acts in 'real' life.

This is not off-topic, I assure you.
 

Dews go dancing upon new flora and fauna, pulling it in.

What happened in the Hobbit Survivor? What do the contestants say?

Ah, well...

In the end, Bullroarer and Gloin lost. Well, what were they but a Strolling Bore and Dull Aaron, anyway?

However, the Dragon wins which is now grand.

Anyways, is it just me or does anyone else think that a flurry of ideas will come rushing to this thread once the current Werewolf game is over?

Schtoopid villagers! :p
 

royal invader girl = ordinary villager

You all disappoint me. :p

I used the anagrams site (first page) and my username can be twelfth hang idea hmmm maybe its an omen for my next werewolf game lol

Has anybody else realised there's one too many esses in the title?
Formendacil =

O limed Franc (!)
If corn medal
Fin Lame dorc :p
Find male orc.

That was an abysmal way to squander my free time.

Wha...

Pah!

Fie upon you double-checking types... What's wrong with "Barrows-Downs"

It seems John Ronald Ruel Tolkien is playing an odd Dwarvish dice game in which, someone claims...

"John, I’ll Rol a ‘De’ Rune... NOT!"

Anagrams
 

It's almost creepy how some of them fit...and others are funny simply because they make no sense at all.
http://www.mbhs.edu/~bconnell/cgi-bi...i?cpw=1&phrase

A few of my favorites:

Fellowship of the Ring= Horsewhip lofting elf.
The Two Towers= The stew or two

Gandalf the Gray=Lead thy gang far
Frodo Baggins=Bag sin for God
Bilbo Baggins=Aging bib slob

Rikae, I've moved your thread to this thread which is already an anagram thread.

Oops - a rash bout to try (sorry about that).

Anyways, how's this for Galadriel - age ralli
Sort of works. -ish. :)

"I land in UZ!", says Inziladun. I wonder what he's doing in University of Zimbabwe. Read carefully, Zil, that's your future! ;)

This might not wound really good but I think that Gandalf would equate to *** Land, which I really felt he was a part of in the beginning of my quest through LOTR.

Great thread none the less, even if there is not much worth into thinking of anagrams for character names, a good way to alleviate the felling still.
