Hey, Maik, I just saw this notice in Gondor:

"Frontier Settlement Program: By Royal Decree of King Elessar, the Elfstone, the... "

- okay, I won't bore you with that part. -

"... to return to Middle Earth and to Gondor what is rightfully hers, and to forever scatter the forces of evil from the boundaries of our fair realm, that we may never again be pressed by... "

- hang on, I'll get to the good stuff. -

"... henceforth and until... "

- blah, blah, hold on, Aragorn's getting wordy. -

"... property held for the term of one year within the former land of Mordor (excepting the Tower of Minas Ithil and those roads and passes needed for the movement of goods within the realm) shall belong to the holder and his/her heirs from then henceforth, until the realm shall end."

So much for my Mordor real estate biz. Ah, it was a hard sell anyways. You Naz must be pretty tough, or your 'water' is coming from a still.

VanimaEdhel 08-29-2002 04:35 PM

Woo! I got Lothlorien. I would also like Rivendell and Hobbiton or Rivendell and Isengard (depending on one answer that I wasn't completely sure about).

Basically what I get on every other Personality Quiz on this that I've taken...

Eol 08-29-2002 10:41 PM

BW, this is pretty sweet, i like it. Just as good as the personality test....

Watch out beach here comes Eol! Gray havens and follow up is Bree and Long Lake. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

mfeltes 08-29-2002 11:26 PM

I probably enjoy Edoras (my primary selection), and I'd love Rivendell, being the big bookworm that I am. But I would be absolutely bored out of my skull in Bree, and Barliman would start to get on my nerves around... oh, Day 3.

So 2 out of 3 on the Finder. Thinking for myself, I'd probably say Minas Tirith or Rivendell.

Bêthberry 08-30-2002 07:09 AM

And just where is the Old Forest on this, Mr. Barrow-Wight? *taps foot quietly while raising an eyebrow*

Or have you assumed that old Tom has made it a gated community for him and Goldberry? [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Sweet, I got the Dead Marshes as my primary one, and Minas Morgul and Dol Guldur as the others. Gee, I'm awful!!!

Looks like I'll be battlin' Balrogs in Moria.(by myself so far) Second options were the Lonely Mt. and Ithilien. Guess I'm a Dwarf at heart. [img]smilies/cool.gif[/img]

The Barrow-Wight 08-30-2002 09:37 PM

I see a lot of people who get the perfect location for their nick or persona, but I wonder how many people are honestly answering the questions based upon the true manner in which they would react to the questions/situations....

.... Though I get a different answer depending on my mood when I take the tests, I just took it and got:

Barliman Butterbur

... and my location would be:

Edoras

This changes almost every time I take the test, but usually the same 3-5 answers come up, just in different order.

Let's see some honest answers to the location and personality tests. (not saying that all of the answers people have posted weren't honest, It's just plain that many people answer to fit the result they desire).

Having gone back and retaken the Location Finder test a couple more times, my favorite location is now Bree followed by Long Lake and Rivendell.

Not much of a change from Long Lake followed by Bree and Rivendell.

Actually, I think I'm happier now that I test out as a Breelander rather than a Lakeman, and can only wonder what I'm answering differently now.

In any case, I am still not coming up with the Shire, which is a bit disappointing.

Maikadilwen 09-01-2002 06:49 AM

If I'd been manipulating the tests, trust me, I'd have come up with Barad-dur as my primary "target" a long time ago. But I still can't get it....
And come on BW, do you honestly believe that I'd go for Wormtongue for fun? Nah, I don't think so.
Seems that my honest self is quite a horrible personality. Well, at least one of them... [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img]

Marileangorifurnimaluim 09-04-2002 09:28 PM

*Sigh* When I give honest answers to the personality test, I end up with Aragorn. I suppose someone who started the 'Lessons on Swordfighting' wouldn't get hobbits, would they?

BW, your test is truly difficult to manipulate. I've tried.

It's the weather that makes the difference between Rivendell and Ithilien for me.

VanimaEdhel 09-11-2002 05:44 PM

Barrow-Wight: Lothlorien was the honest one I got after I lied to get Mirkwood. LOL...I generally do the lying one to get what I want, then I do the truthful one, and that's what I tell people...

I know, I'm weird, but it's my system, and it's worked for me [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img] . LOL

EDIT: Okay: just so you trust me, I did it again. Some of the answers changed because of the day I'm having, but, I came out with:
Based on your answers, you should settle in
Rivendell
It is the location that meets most of your preferences.

You would also probably like to live in
Hobbiton
Lothlorien

Just a different configuration of the same answers!
