Silmaril

Well, actually, Maglor threw the simaril into the sea and wanders the beaches, so i guess Maglor is the answer. So, although Celebrimbor is probably the answer, i must stick to Maglor!

I was thinking of Celebrimbor, since Maglor's fate is unknown. Sorry Perky .

I guess that means it's my turn, so:
What names did the Vanyar and the Noldor have for the sun and the moon?

Thumbs up Oh! BRAVO! BRAVO! BRAVO!

I would like to thank all of you that have been helping to keep my thread alive while I have been away. I sincerly appreciate it. (I think I'm going to cry... )

I have edited the scoreboard, but I am in a bit of dilema. 3 people: Evisse the Blue, Fingolfin II, and Nilpaurion Felagund are in a tie at 2 points, so I cannot not as yet put anyone in the Elven Hall of Fame. I would very much like your all's suggestions about how to break this tie. We can do most anything. So, please send in your comments, etc. by Wednesday, or Friday at the latest.

Once again, thank you all for all of your help.

Sincerly,

~Galadel

Question

Here is what seems to be an answer to the problem of the tie. Tomorrow at around 3p.m. (as is the time recorded on the Baqrrowdowns) I will post a question for Evisse the Blue, Fingolfin II, and Nilpaurion Felagund to answer only. Whoever answers this question correctly first will be the Hall of Fame member of the month for March.

Yet, if this tiebreaker does not work we have two options. The first choice is to not have a Hall of Fame member for March, and just to record one for April at the end of the month. The final choice is for me to go back and see at the very end of March- who had the most points.

I would really like all of your all's input in this matter

Perky: please do not ask any questions until we have decided what is to be done.

Namarie.

~Galadel

This is getting confusing....but i respect that! I'll lay off with the question until we can get it solved.
