Awww...I thought another anagrams thread would be a good idea...
Doesn't anyone else agree? http://www.handykult.de/plaudersmili...ad/bluecry.gif

Tell me the answer to the one you had and how you got it.

Then people might understand how to play it and then it might catch on

I looked at this topic before, and I thought it was a good idea, but maybe give some instructions to people on how to play!

I know it is re-arranging letters from word(s) to form new word(s), but
fingol is looming has stumpted me!

LePetitChoux 12-16-2002 11:57 AM

It was precisely that-rearranging letters in words to form Middle-Earth related word(s).

fingol is looming = Gimli Son of Gloin

The actual anagram doesn't have to have anything to do with it's answer-for example, from the other thread,
Die, Nell! had nothing to do with it's answer, Elendil.
Hope that explains it! [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

So, someone can have a go now, as I did one just now. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Pallando B.C 12-16-2002 07:14 PM

This one is pretty stupid but...

Mal and Fosshl

Fosshl is a name!

LePetitChoux 12-20-2002 10:01 AM

I have no idea! [img]smilies/eek.gif[/img] Clue, maybe? [img]smilies/confused.gif[/img]

Pallando B.C 12-20-2002 04:50 PM

Sorry, LePetitChoux, i spelt it wrong.


Malo and Fosshl

It's a dumb one, but at least it's there.

That should help you, if it doesn't, just let me know.

LePetitChoux 12-22-2002 05:50 AM

Is it from the Silmarillion? Because if it is then there is NO WAY I'm gona get it, as I've still to get through it.... [img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img] I'm stupid I know...

Pallando B.C 12-22-2002 06:34 AM

It is sorry, LePetitChoux, and you're not Stupid! You should read it though, it is very interesting.

Malo and Fosshl= Halls of Mandos

You may have heard of it.

You can give me one now!

LePetitChoux 12-22-2002 03:59 PM

I had heard of it... tisk tisk, silly me! [img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img]
I was kind of confused as you said Fosshl was a name, so I thought that the letters f,o,s,s,h,l make up a name! Oh deary deary me! [img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img]
I am reading it, just haven't finished it yet...a 1/3 of the way through-ish.
I don't really deserve to give you one, as I didn't get the last one, but I shall take you up on your offer, and present you with this tantalising brainteaser ( [img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img] )

Aaaanyway,

I'm ignoring any accents, circumflexes and umlauts, bu the way [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Nobody? C'mon-it is so easy! [img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img]

LePetitChoux 12-26-2002 05:08 PM

Anyone? Anyone at all? [img]smilies/eek.gif[/img]

Galadrie1 12-26-2002 05:38 PM

Give a hint -- Is it a character? A place?

[ December 26, 2002: Message edited by: Galadrie1 ]

LePetitChoux 12-28-2002 04:58 AM

It is a character [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

busybee 12-28-2002 05:57 AM

I have absolutely no idea give a bit more of a hint pleeze madamoisel

Galadrie1 12-28-2002 12:24 PM

I'm trying, LePetitChoux, really, I am! The only thing is, if it's not from The Lord of the Rings of The Hobbit I'm kinda stuck, since that's all I've read.... [img]smilies/confused.gif[/img]

piosenniel 12-28-2002 12:49 PM

Ghân-buri-ghân - chieftain of the Woses

Heeled PM's

LePetitChoux 12-28-2002 12:58 PM

Well this new one just jumps out at you!
Helm's Deep!

tiki sholder on hane

clue: it's a character [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Galadrie1 12-28-2002 01:07 PM

Aaah! I'd finally figured out Ghan-buri-Ghan, and piosenniel beat me to it! Nooo!
*sigh* Alright, back to work on the current one now....

Galadrie1 12-28-2002 01:22 PM

Aha! I've got it: Thorin Oakenshield

And here's a new (easy) one: mage games

piosenniel 12-28-2002 02:30 PM

Sam Gamgee!

An alternate title for a piece of lovely jewelry - from ROTK

A! Dude Rats of the Inn

[ December 28, 2002: Message edited by: piosenniel ]

LePetitChoux 12-28-2002 02:44 PM

OK, from now on, you have to give a clue as to what it is (location, character, etc.), unless it seems too blindingly obvious to you (but then again, the Ghân-buri-ghân one seemed obvious to me...hmm....) Basically, I'm saying I want a clue! [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img] Please? Is it a character, a place, a landmark, etc...

Also (I did start the game, I guess I can tweak at it a little)-and this is for purely selfish reasons-can we keep it to LotR and the Hobbit... please? [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

piosenniel 12-28-2002 02:51 PM

Please note my amended and easily clued anagram. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

LePetitChoux 12-29-2002 10:22 AM

Star of the Dunedain! (Is that right...it seems right...)

fright orthann

It is ther name given to an area of land west of the Anduin (or is that too obvious?)

tom bombariffic 12-30-2002 08:36 AM

when you say west of the anduin, are you still talking about middle earth, or are you talking about the undying lands in the far west?

LePetitChoux 12-30-2002 09:44 AM

In Middle-Earth. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

LePetitChoux 12-31-2002 09:57 AM

Nobody? [img]smilies/eek.gif[/img] I thought it was easy, what with the clue and everything... [img]smilies/confused.gif[/img]

Haste not, Surr!

It is a character with no speaking parts (i.e. only mentionned, not actually ever speaking). [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

piosenniel 01-02-2003 04:54 PM

Elfstan Fairbairn - difficult! [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Let's make the process a little easier - let the next anagram be a word that starts with the last letter of the previous one.

And of course, be limited to The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings trilogy.
