Lindolirian · 04-30-2002, 04:28 PM

I was thinking Thranduil Beleg connection as they both lived in Doriath... anyways

Barrow wight (the one in the book) --> Isildur

[ April 30, 2002: Message edited by: Lindolirian ]

Voronwe · 04-30-2002, 05:45 PM

Barrow Wight -> Frodo -> Elrond -> Isildur

Lindolirian · 05-01-2002, 11:15 AM

correct

Gimli Son Of Gloin · 05-01-2002, 03:45 PM

Is someone gonna post a queston?

Lindolirian · 05-01-2002, 04:26 PM

still a bit hasty, eh? its only been a little less than a day since Voronwe posted the correct answer and evn less since i confirmed it..... just wait a bit. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Gimli Son Of Gloin · 05-01-2002, 04:55 PM

I'm sorry, for being hasty, I wouldn't last a minute as an Ent in an Entmoot...

Voronwe · 05-02-2002, 12:14 PM

Eol -> Bard

Lindolirian · 05-03-2002, 02:18 PM

Eol-> Aredhel-> Turgon-> Galadriel-> Bilbo-> Bard

[ May 03, 2002: Message edited by: Lindolirian ]

Voronwe · 05-04-2002, 03:59 AM

Correct.

Lindolirian · 05-04-2002, 10:49 AM

Gimli--> Angrim

Joy · 05-04-2002, 10:27 PM

Gimli -> Elrond -> Dior -> Beren ->
Barahir -> Angrim

Voronwe · 05-06-2002, 02:22 AM

Perhaps I'm a bit late pointing this out, but Dior and Elrond never met.

Lindolirian · 05-06-2002, 02:19 PM

Yes but Dior was Elrond's grandfather.

Dior=Nimloth
|
|
Elwing=Earendil
|
|
Elrond and Elros

Voronwe · 05-06-2002, 05:17 PM

I know

Turambar · 05-07-2002, 09:20 AM

Joy's rules (from page 1):

When tracing from one name to another there must have been interaction or implied interaction in the novels between the two characters. Also, a link can me made between names if the two characters are immediately related to each other (child, parent, spouse).

[ May 07, 2002: Message edited by: Turambar ]

Joy · 05-07-2002, 10:24 PM

You know, I honestly forgot that Dior and Elrond never met!

I am trying to think of another link here.

Joy · 05-07-2002, 10:30 PM

I've got it now

Gimli - Galadriel - Finrod Felagund - Barahir - Angrim

Lindolirian · 05-08-2002, 03:45 PM

thats good too. your turn

Joy · 05-08-2002, 08:44 PM

This might be a little hard.

Golfimbul -> Eowyn

Lindolirian · 05-09-2002, 04:15 PM

Golfimbul --> Bandobras Took --> the Old Took --> Bilbo --> Frodo --> Merry --> Eowyn

hmmm is that counted as six or seven steps? there are six aroows which imply a step even though there are seven people so, six then? or not?

Joy · 05-10-2002, 11:59 PM

Very good, though I would did it without Frodo. That would make it right.

Golfimbul -> Brandobras Took -> Old Took -> Bilbo -> Merry -> Eowyn.

If you remember, Bilbo and Merry knew each other.

But otherwise, it is your turn Lindolirian.

The Laurenendorian · 05-13-2002, 12:34 PM

If you wished to shortten it, you could certainly insert Gandalf in place of Bilbo and Merry, and perhaps in place of Gerontius as well.

Lindolirian · 05-14-2002, 02:20 PM

Merry --> Yavanna

Lómelindi · 05-14-2002, 05:18 PM

Merry --> Aragorn --> Galadriel --> Yavanna

(This is my first try at this, bear with me.)

[ May 14, 2002: Message edited by: Lómelindi ]

Lindolirian · 05-17-2002, 06:54 PM

well that would work i suppose but i was thinking of something else....

think wizards...

Joy · 05-20-2002, 01:54 PM

I would say for Merry -> Yavanna

Merry -> Gandalf -> Nessa -> Yavanna.

[ May 20, 2002: Message edited by: Joy ]

Lindolirian · 05-20-2002, 07:45 PM

hmmmmm how did Gandalf know Nessa?

Joy · 05-20-2002, 08:54 PM

Duh my bad, I'm sorry, I meant Nienna!

Merry -> Gandalf (Olorin) -> Nienna -> Yavanna

Lindolirian · 05-21-2002, 02:32 PM

Yes, good job.

Joy · 05-21-2002, 10:19 PM

Okay, here goes...

Uinéniel -> Gloin

Lothiriel Silmarien · 05-22-2002, 01:37 PM

Uineniel 'Erendis'-> Tar Aldarion -> Gil-Galad -> Elrond -> Bilbo-> Gloin

I hope it's right!!!!

Joy · 05-22-2002, 09:18 PM

Correct, but I had something else in mind..

Uinéniel -> Tar Aldarion -> Gil-galad -> Elrond -> Gloin

Remeber, Gloin was at Rivendell twice, once with Bilbo in the Hobbit and once in FotR, in the chapter, Many Meetings.

Lothiriel Silmarien · 05-27-2002, 12:42 PM

Oh yeah that's true. Ok, I'll give something:

Manwe-> Gimli (I feel like giving another also, so choose which one you want)
or
Mandos-> Aragorn

Lindolirian · 05-27-2002, 06:07 PM

Manwe --> Thorondor --> Gwaihir --> Gandalf --> Gimli

Lothiriel Silmarien · 05-27-2002, 06:58 PM

Actually I was thinking of
Manwe-> Feanor-> Galadriel-> Gimli

But yours is right anyway, so go ahead! [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Lindolirian · 05-27-2002, 07:48 PM

eh, ok..
Finarfin --> Hama

Joy · 05-28-2002, 01:44 AM

Finarfin -> Galadriel ->Aragorn, Gandalf, Gimli or Legolas -> Hama

Just for fun I want to answer
Mandos-> Aragorn

Mandos -> Nienna -> Olorin(Gandalf) -> Aragorn

[ May 28, 2002: Message edited by: Joy ]

Lothiriel Silmarien · 05-28-2002, 01:55 PM

Ooh cool Joy, you got my answer! I always think of longer ones though! I was thinking of Mandos, Luthien, Dior, Earendil, Elrond, then Aragorn but you people think of quicker ways than me. Oh well, but right anyway!

Lindolirian · 05-28-2002, 02:22 PM

Joy is correct
