Estelyn Telcontar 03-18-2006 03:37 PM

T-time indeed! :D That's right, and you're entitled to the next turn, Guinevere.

Guinevere 03-20-2006 08:03 AM

Thanks, Esty! :) Try this one:


"----'-/ ----/, -/ ----/ -/ ----/ --/ ----/ ----/ ---/, -------/ -----/ --/ -/ ------/ --/ --------/."

Estelyn Telcontar 03-20-2006 12:09 PM

Let's start with T this time.

Guinevere 03-20-2006 03:01 PM

T is served

Farmer Giles?

Guinevere 03-24-2006 03:34 PM

Well done, Tuor! It is indeed Farmer Giles speaking to Chrysophilax.

Tuor in Gondolin 03-25-2006 10:23 AM

Okay. Here's the next one.

Estelyn Telcontar 03-25-2006 10:39 AM

Oooh, a nice long one! I think that calls for some T...

Tuor in Gondolin 03-25-2006 10:53 AM

T

The "_" signs indicate dashes (to be replaced with
real dashes when the appropriate letters on each
side are filled in).

Guinevere 03-25-2006 10:54 AM

are there any O's ?

Tuor in Gondolin 03-25-2006 10:57 AM

Indeed there are "o"s, and quite helpful, I think.

Estelyn Telcontar 03-25-2006 11:17 AM

Hmmm - S, please.

"Now fly away and amuse yourselves!"
"Don't worry the fire-fish, don't chew the sea-anemones , don't get caught in the clams; and come back to supper!"

Artaxerxes's wife to (Sea-)Rover and Roverandom

Tuor in Gondolin 03-27-2006 12:07 PM

Guinevere has it. Most impressive.
I assume the "don'ts" gave it away.

Guinevere 03-27-2006 02:11 PM

Thank you, Tuor!
(You're right about the "don't"s. Things like these are probably one of the reasons why I find this game easier in English than in my mothertongue.)
