There is already an "Odd Man Out" thread , Tarien. Maybe you could try your luck there. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img] [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Or if you want to start a new quiz maybe this would then be the odd CREATURE out? Just a thought...

Shelob

Well, yeah OK, thanks Eruanna [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]. We could do a odd CREATURE out instead! [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] Sorry 'bout the duplicate. [img]smilies/confused.gif[/img] Oh, and Legolas you may continue if you like. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Hello?!?!?!?

A new question please?

Tarien, you might want to Edit your first post a rename the thread. Just a suggestion as to not confuse.

And Elentarimir, if you're that worried about a new question, don't just yell out with no purpose, take time to PM Legolas, he is quite a busy person.

OK, this game has been renamed so as to differentiate it from Odd Man Out.

Would anyone like to ask a new question?

I shall. I shall, I shall, I shall!

A)Crebain
B)Uruks
C)Orcs
D)Wargs

Crebain

Bob, on multiple choice style threads like this, you should always give the reason for your answer. This ensures that no one gets the answer right on a 1 in 4 chance just by guessing.

So, you should explain why you think the Crebain are the odd creatures out (however obvious it may seem [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] ).

Crebain were not present at any M-E battle, perhaps?

No...that's not the reason I was looking for.

Was it that the Company were never actually attacked by them (Crebain)?

Nope. Come on, guys! I know I'm being a nitpick with this one, but it's fun. Think of their features. Use those dead brains of yours! [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Features??? Was it that Crebain were the only ones with beaks, feathers and wings, perhaps? Or Wargs the only ones that walked on four legs?
I'm sure Crebain is the answer for some reason or other. :/ It certainly appears the be the odd one out.
Was it that they were not neccessarily evil?

Gwaihir, you got it. It was that Crebain were the only ones that had wings and could fly, and you got the wings part so I'll give it to you.

Thanks.

Eagles
Crebain
Dragons
Thrushes

Is it that Crebain were the only species not involved in The Hobbit?

Dragons, there the only creature listed that's not a bird.

No and no, but maiden is close.

Thrushes, because they are the only ones not mentioned in LotR?

Crebain, because they weren't involved in the Battle of the Five Armies, or the preceding events?

Thrushes? Because they are the only non-fantasy creature.

No, no, and no, I'm afraid. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img] Think 'variations', it might help.

Oh and sorry, but it wasn't the Horse-Maiden that I meant to say was 'close', but Leowen.

Surely it can't be this, but....dragons, because there were lots of varieties- unlike all the birds, which were just thrushes (or whatever)?

Is it Thrushes, because the others have been altered in some way to make them more...interesting?

i.e. The Eagles have been made huge
The Crebain are Crows, but more evil
The Dragons can, er, talk

But the Thrushes can understand Thorin!

Hm.

Maybe it is thrushes?

Ooooh! I know!

It's Thrushes, because there was only one of them, whereas there were lots of Dragons, Eagles and Crebain.

Am I right? [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Is it Dragons because there are wingless Dragons within Tolkien's works, Glaurung for example, whereas all Eagles, Crebain and Thrushes that appear are (not surprisingly) winged?

Choux, your persistance... hasn't paid off. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img] Sorry. Lyra's guess was good, but also wrong.
Saucepans, however, is right -- Dragons being the only creature that cannot neccessarily fly; well done, your turn.

Why thank you mighty Windlord. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

How about some farmyard favourites?

Cow
Dog
Pony
Sheep

Pony? It's the only type of barnyard animal mentioned in LOTR?

You are forgetting Farmer Maggot's hounds. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

So, no, that's not the answer.

Cow because it's the only animal too big for a Hobbit to ride!! ( I clearly have no idea...)

Hmmm, I take it this is in relation to Tolkien somehow? =] In that case, Sheep, that race of mystical divine woolly things that bleateth and graze in the fields, as their meat is the only one recorded to be eaten in LotR (mutton).

a sheep was the only one not too appear or sound or have mention in the movie!!!

Was there a cow in either of the films?

Anyway, there is no correct answer so far. [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img]

Is it a dog? The only choice of which more that one is written at once?

But what about Tom's ponies? And those used by Bilbo and co in the Hobbit? So, no, I'm afraid that's not it.

in the first film you see a hobbit oulling a cow, and some pigs when Gandalf comes in
