BDers Trivia
 
I don't think there are any other threads like this, but let me know if you find any. Here are the rules:

The person asking the question must ask a question about his/herself.

If you are asking the question, you must have posted the answer before on at least one other thread.

For example, a question that Mattius might ask would be:

On April 21, I posted a picture of myself. What did the shirt I was wearing say?

The answer would be:

BRITS DO IT BEST

Here's the first question:

What is my middle name?

Tell me if you need a hint!

Airehiriel 04-28-2003 10:21 PM

Holy Cow! This seems like it could be very tough! But a very good idea, I think.

Yes, how about a clue.

elven maiden Earwen 04-28-2003 10:26 PM

Is it Nicole?

Sophia the Thunder Mistress 04-28-2003 11:32 PM

Your first name's Monica [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img] I think...

Eressië Ailin 04-29-2003 07:03 AM

Yep, you got the first name.

Here's a clue:

There is one other BDer with the same first and middle name as mine, both with different spellings.

Sophia the Thunder Mistress 04-29-2003 12:44 PM

Quote:

That's really freaky... becuase my middle name is Lynn... I'm not kidding!!!
So you're Monyca Lynne
And I'm Monica Lynn
*triumphant* it's Lynn [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Sophia

Eressië Ailin 04-29-2003 02:59 PM

You got it! Your turn, Sophia.

Sophia the Thunder Mistress 04-29-2003 05:34 PM

How old am I? approximately...

elven maiden Earwen 04-29-2003 06:23 PM

20ish I think 22?

Sophia the Thunder Mistress 04-29-2003 07:21 PM

since I usually say 20ish, I'd say you're exactly right Earwen (though I'm 20, not 22)

Sophia

elven maiden Earwen 04-30-2003 09:58 PM

who ****ed me off in ME mayham?

Eressië Ailin 04-30-2003 11:28 PM

One Axe to Rule Them All?

elven maiden Earwen 05-01-2003 05:40 PM

correct (Sharku isnt evil) [img]smilies/evil.gif[/img] [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Eressië Ailin 05-05-2003 10:43 AM

This one may be a little harder, but here it goes:

What name did the Barrow-Downs Name Generator give me, and what does it mean?

the phantom 05-05-2003 12:43 PM

Well, I know you said this...
Quote:

At my school, we are reading The Hobbit right now. We are studying Quenya and Sindarin. Our teacher went to the Barrow-Downs to get our Elvish names!! However, I am totally opposed to the Name Generator, so this makes me mad!!! I'm trying to get it through to my teacher that the Name Generator only generates a name; she believes that it translates your name. BTW, in class, we have to call each other the names that the Name Generator gave us.
and this....

Lucky you... My friend who has the same name as me, Monica, is in 2 of my classes. On my first day of school, in 1st period, my teacher asked me if I had a nickname. At the time, I was busy writing my latest RPG post. So the first thing that came out of my mouth was 'Mae'. In another class I'm known as Luin, another RPG character of mine.
and this....
Quote:

STUPID NAME GENERATOR!!!
yeah... I don't like the name generator...

Just in case there is some one here who doesn't know, the name generator doesn't translate your name into Elvish or any other language, it just generates a name, hence the name: The Name Generator.

My screen name is my first and middle name in Quenya. Eressië Ailin~ Lonely lake, more or less.
I don't think that's what you're looking for, though. I plugged in Monyca Lynne and the generator spit out Nufeniel, but I have no clue if that's what you're looking for either. Oh well.

Eressië Ailin 05-05-2003 04:57 PM

Nope, that's not what I'm looking for... Do you know how to get to the Languages Forum? If you do, or even if you don't, that's where you'll find the answer.

And Monyca Lynne would be Rynoah's name, and I'm looking for what you get if you put in my first, middle, and last name in, and my translation of it.

the phantom 05-05-2003 06:53 PM

It means blue pine tree.

It might have been something like Luinthon.

[ May 05, 2003: Message edited by: the phantom ]

Eressië Ailin 05-05-2003 07:36 PM

Yep, you got it! The name was Luinthondiel. Your go, phantom.

the phantom 05-05-2003 09:48 PM

All right then. Try this one...

What did I say the most "naughty" of Mr Clause's evil works was?

Sophia the Thunder Mistress 05-05-2003 11:18 PM

quote from The Silmarilion
"But it is held true by the elves that Santa, who is named Nick, the great enemy of the world, took the Noldor that he had captured and through slow arts of torture, turned them into short, twisted creatures, living only to manufacture and produce toys. And this was deemed the most naughty act of all Santa's evil works."
Sounds more like the Silly-marillion to me [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Sophia

the phantom 05-06-2003 08:13 AM

Correct.

And, by the way, that really is in the Silmarillion. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Sophia the Thunder Mistress 05-09-2003 02:12 PM

Alright, *rubs hands together*...

What was the name of the reporter from whom Sophia saved Maegaladiel at the Barrowdowns Birthday Party?

Sophia

The Saucepan Man 05-09-2003 05:23 PM

That'll be Sunny Day of the Middle Earth Times.

Great party, though. [img]smilies/cool.gif[/img]

alaklondewen 05-09-2003 05:24 PM

Hmm...would that be Miss Sunny Day?

EDIT: Rats, you're too fast for me Saucepan!

[ May 09, 2003: Message edited by: alaklondewen ]

Sophia the Thunder Mistress 05-09-2003 10:56 PM

Correct as usual, King Friday... I mean, Mr. Saucepan.

The Saucepan Man 05-12-2003 07:26 PM

Wow! 8 minutes, maiden of the elves!

elven maiden Earwen 05-12-2003 07:28 PM

Sophia the Thunder Mistress 05-12-2003 08:24 PM

Very off topic, but Saucepan-

King Friday...?
King Friday was the puppet King on a kids TV show (Mr Rogers' Neighborhood) when I was little. The people on the show always said "Correct as usual King Friday!" [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] The queen was Queen Sara Saturday and I always liked it cause my real first name is Sara.

Sophia

Sophia the Thunder Mistress 05-24-2003 04:17 PM

I've looked and looked for the link to Earwens picture and not found anything, so since I like this thread and it's been more than 10 days since anyone's posted, I'll ask a new one.

Who do I plan to meet in Bree for a meal and a drink?

alaklondewen 05-24-2003 05:06 PM

Ooh, ooh...pick me! *raises hand and fidgets on the edge of her seat*

Could it be....Alaklondewen? [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Sophia the Thunder Mistress 05-24-2003 05:10 PM

LOL! The answer I was looking for was "Alaklondedillo", but I suppose I can take Alaklondewen [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]. Your go!

Sophia

alaklondewen 05-24-2003 09:47 PM

Sophia, Alaklondedillo lived and died at Tom Bombadil's house. I'm sure she wouldn't dare show her face in Bree. Maybe on our trip back home [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

What is the name of the little town where I live?

[ May 24, 2003: Message edited by: alaklondewen ]

elven maiden Earwen 05-29-2003 08:17 PM

hmmm. I'm lost can we have a hint?

alaklondewen 05-29-2003 08:41 PM

Okay, I posted it on a duplicate thread that was started in the wrong forum where it would have been appropriate to talk about where I live. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

The Saucepan Man 06-06-2003 11:15 AM

Well, alak, I know that you are in Indiana, but that's all I've been able to find ... [img]smilies/frown.gif[/img]

alaklondewen 06-06-2003 05:10 PM

Well, I must apologize...I posted the name of the little town where I live on a 'Where are you from?' thread in N/N and it was closed. I just searched for it, and it has obviously been deleted. I'm sorry...I didn't realize when I asked the question.

Saucepan Man, since I do indeed live in Indiana...the floor is now yours. Cheers.

The Saucepan Man 06-07-2003 08:09 PM

Thank you, alak. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

How old is my daughter?

alaklondewen 06-07-2003 09:08 PM

She's 5 is she not. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]
