Joy 11-25-2002 12:22 AM

That was Tar-Palantir of Númenor.

Turambar 11-25-2002 01:54 PM

If so, wouldn't that be the Second Age ????

Joy 11-25-2002 05:43 PM

Turambar - I noticed that it was 2nd Age after posting too. But if it is stated that I am correct, I will bring it back to the 1st Age.

Túroch 11-26-2002 12:34 AM

Yah you guessed it. Shoot, you guys are right it is the Second Age. Oh the shame! Will I ever live it down. Anywho, go ahead and bring us back Joy. I'll go and do penitence for my transgression.

P.S. Cool avatar Joy.

Joy 11-26-2002 12:59 AM

Don't worry about it Túroch. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img] We've all made mistakes (even worse ones than that) when we were new.

Which Men were resuced by the Great Eagle and brought to Gondolin?

Pallando B.C 11-26-2002 03:46 AM

Huor and Hurin [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Joy 11-26-2002 09:08 AM

Good job Palando!

Pallando B.C 11-27-2002 03:04 AM

What are the two names for the 4th battle in the Wars of Beleriand.

Legolas 11-27-2002 08:00 AM

Dagor Bragollach ('Battle of the Sudden Flame') and the Ruin of Beleriand

Quote:

Thus began the fourth of the great battles, Dagor Bragollach, the Battle of Sudden Flame.
Quote:

Thus Turgon lived long in bliss; but Nevrast was desolate, and remained empty of living folk until the ruin of Beleriand.
Quote:

But many Men remained in Estolad, and there was still a mingled people living there long years after, until in the ruin of Beleriand they were overwhelmed or fled back into the East.

Pallando B.C 11-27-2002 08:43 PM

Good job...so you can proceed [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Legolas 11-28-2002 01:04 AM

Who was Fingolfin's wife? What became of her, and why?

Pallando B.C 11-28-2002 04:00 AM

The wife of Fingolfin was Anaire. She remained on Aman mainly due to her friendship with Earwen. All her sons went with her father.

Legolas 11-28-2002 04:50 PM

Yes.

Pallando B.C 11-29-2002 01:29 AM

Ok, Who was the first exile to come to Menegroth, and what was his/her purpose there?

Joy 11-29-2002 01:57 AM

Still checking, Joy?

Pallando B.C 12-04-2002 04:08 AM

Lets get things moving joy, please.

Amathoronion 12-05-2002 02:43 PM

I am the servent of Aule of the Valar who am I.???????????????????????????????????????????

Pallando B.C 12-06-2002 05:38 AM

Sorry to break this to you Amathoronion, but only Joy may ask a question because she was the person to answer the previous question correct

The Quiz Room only allows you to ask a question when you have answered a question that somebody else asked, correctly

If you wish to start your own line of quizzes, you may add a "New Topic" on the main Quiz Room page.

Don't feel bad though, i have noticed that you are new to the downs, and may not have understood how this works

Keep looking for a question that you might know the answer to, then you can give the hardest question you can think of.

And if Joy is reading this....please give a question.

Welcome to the Downs Amathoronion !

Amathoronion 12-06-2002 01:45 PM

Thanks for the welcome I will follow the rules

Pallando B.C 12-08-2002 10:32 PM

Gees, Joy, this must be a mighty hard question your thinking of...or else you have forgotten First Age Trivia.

I'm gonna go with my instinct on this one and say that Joy is having a little break.

So, since this is a good quiz topic, and because i asked the question to Joy, I may as well continue the line of questioning.

If anyone has any objections, Let me know [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Ok, How did Brodda die, and who killed him.

the real findorfin 12-09-2002 08:31 AM

He died when Turin flew into a rage and killed him?

Pallando B.C 12-09-2002 04:29 PM

He broke his neck to be precice, but you're right. Your go!

the real findorfin 12-09-2002 05:06 PM

OK, easy one here.

Pallando B.C 12-11-2002 05:05 PM

Would that be Mim the petty dwarf?

Pallando B.C 12-11-2002 09:32 PM

It would, Túroch.

Túroch 12-12-2002 10:48 PM

Whom did Neithan slay chasing a woman through a thicket? And for bonus points what battle did this individuhal previously take part in?

[ December 12, 2002: Message edited by: Túroch ]

Pallando B.C 12-13-2002 06:21 AM

It was Forweg, but no bonus pionts for me [img]smilies/frown.gif[/img]
I can't think of it off the top of my head.

Lindolirian 12-13-2002 04:06 PM

He was in the Nirnaeth Arnoediad, but he fled and was branded a coward. Let the points go to Pallando, I was just furthering the info.

Pallando B.C 12-13-2002 05:49 PM

Thanks, Lindolirian.
