No, sorry... but it's nice to see someone other than Sophia and Lindo finally getting a chance to answer. (Seems like one of them is always online when I am.

)

March 27, 3019 the seige of Erebor is broken?

Man I suck at math...

Nope. You have the day right, though.

Sophia the Thunder Mistress · 01-31-2005, 05:57 AM

On the one date you've indicated not SR, does that mean the other dates you're looking for are in Shire Reckoning.

I was pretty sure I had the month and day... it's the year that gets me. Or do I not have the month either?

The month is incorrect as well - by "has no holidays" I meant none that border the month, for example June/July would have a holiday since Lithe is between them.

For year dates, the first two are SR. The rest, including the final answer, are not.

It might help to say that the final answer does have something to do with the Topic. It's not completely random.

So Sophia does not have the right year either? Is the correct year 3033?

Sophia the Thunder Mistress · 01-31-2005, 07:16 AM

Evisse, in my second set of calculations I got four different possible years as follows

Using Isengar Took as the journeyer, and the day after Lithe in a non-Leap-Year: 2969

Using Pippin as the journeyer, and the non-Leap-Year date: 3158

Using Isengar and Leap-Year: 2969

Using Pippin and Leap-Year: 3157

I can't find any significant dates on the 27th of any month in any of those years.
