No, that's not the answer.

Clue : - it's about time.

Russandol 01-20-2003 08:25 AM

Do I claim victory in this thread?

[img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] Woo-Hoo! [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Answer - The Sea of Rhun

All the others are mentioned as having existed in the First Age of the world.

Russandol 01-20-2003 08:50 AM

Next one :

Umbar
Edhellond
Lond Daer Enedh
Pelargir

Lindolirian 01-20-2003 10:33 AM

Edhellond is the only port not manned by Men.

Russandol 01-20-2003 10:35 AM

Too easy for you Lindolirian. The floor's all yours ...

Lindolirian 01-21-2003 08:22 PM

Nargothrond
Dorthonion
Menegroth
Tol Sirion

Beren87 01-21-2003 08:38 PM

Well, they've all been sacked at one time or another, so that doesn't help at all...

Isn't Dorthonion the only place, by which I mean all theothers are buildings?? But is that too easy (or completely wrong [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img] )

Ultimatejoe 01-22-2003 06:10 AM

Dorthonion is the only region populated by men?

Russandol 01-22-2003 11:07 AM

Hmm, not sure here ...

Is it ...

a) Menegroth as the other three were realmlets founded by Noldorian princes ?

b) Dorthonion - the only place to remain above water after the War of Wrath?

c) Menegroth again as the other three were habitations of the Enemy at some point?

Lindolirian 01-22-2003 03:39 PM

No, no, no, and no. Keep trying!!!

Russandol 01-22-2003 04:07 PM

Dorthonion - The other three could only be reached by bridge.

Lindolirian 01-22-2003 04:47 PM

Gee whiz, there are so many answers for this one. Still not it!

Ultimatejoe 01-22-2003 11:02 PM

Tol Sirion is the only one with a name in Quenya?

Russandol 01-23-2003 11:32 AM

Dorthonion again as the other three were visited by Luthien Tinuviel.

Ultimatejoe 01-23-2003 04:45 PM

I think that when we throw these riddles together we REALLY should try to arrange them so there is only one possible solution.

Beren87 01-27-2003 02:24 PM

I think we should stop spamming. That's impossible to do by the way.

Tol Sirion, the only one not repopuluated after it was sacked?

Lindolirian 01-27-2003 08:16 PM

Hint: They are all places that one Man has been. Except one, of course...

Beren87 01-27-2003 08:23 PM

Well, Turin has been to everyone except for Tol Sirion I believe.

Lindolirian 01-27-2003 08:23 PM

Correct!

Beren87 01-27-2003 08:30 PM

Great!

Gladden Fields
Mt.Doom
The Shire
Dale

elven maiden Earwen 01-27-2003 09:33 PM

dale because it is the only place frodo didnt go

Beren87 01-27-2003 09:35 PM

Nope.

Ultimatejoe 01-28-2003 07:57 AM

The Shire is the only place west of the Misty Mountains?

Lyra Greenleaf 01-28-2003 01:25 PM

Dale was the only place that didnt have a battle named after it?
(it was called the battle of 5 armies right?)

Ultimatejoe 01-28-2003 03:04 PM

The Shire didn't have a battle named after it. The Battle that Bandorabas Took was in was called the Battle of the North Downs was it not? The only other battle in the Shire was called the Battle of Bywater.

Beren87 01-28-2003 03:43 PM

Sorry to say their all wrong. It deals with an object.

Lindolirian 01-28-2003 04:21 PM

The Ring has not been to Dale. I think Bilbo went around it on his way to the Lonely Mountain.

Beren87 01-28-2003 07:08 PM

Correct Lindolirian!

elven maiden Earwen 01-30-2003 10:42 PM

Minas Tirth
Rivendell
Valinor
Shire

Beren87 01-30-2003 11:42 PM

Elven Arwen Maiden, please read the Quiz Room Rules where it is clearly stated that Lindolirian has 10 days to post on this thread.

Lindolirian 01-31-2003 03:46 PM

Formenos
Menegroth
Mouths of Sirion
Angband

[ February 03, 2003: Message edited by: Lindolirian ]

Ultimatejoe 01-31-2003 07:23 PM

A king of the Eldar died at each one except the Mouths of the Sirion?

[ January 31, 2003: Message edited by: Ultimatejoe ]

Lindolirian 02-02-2003 10:10 AM

Not quite. I thought this one was very easy actually.

lathspell 02-02-2003 10:15 AM

Mouths of Sirion, I guess.

The other three all are fortified places or strongholds.

greetings,
lathspell

Lindolirian 02-02-2003 10:16 AM

Hmm.... And I'm even giving a subtle little hint...

Ultimatejoe 02-03-2003 07:18 PM

Only Formenos is in Valinor?

Pallando B.C 02-04-2003 04:30 AM

Formenos, since Mortal Men have been everywhere else. Maybe a bit too easy ?

lathspell 02-05-2003 04:38 AM

Mouths of Sirion is the only made by nature itself and not by Elves, Dwarves etc.

Lindolirian 02-05-2003 03:37 PM

They're all a place where something has been.
