Good ole Ted Sandyman!

Tuor of Gondolin · 07-28-2004, 10:20 AM

Proudfoot? Shouldn't that be Proudfeet?

Nob! (the brains of the Prancing Pony franchise).

Firefoot · 07-28-2004, 10:22 AM

Nob was already mentioned... so about about Nick Cotton?

Tuor of Gondolin · 07-28-2004, 10:35 AM

Agh!!! You're right about Nob. I checked twice but missed it.

Nick

(brother of Rosie Cotton)

Wait, Tuor, isn't that what Firefoot already said, Nick Cotton? Hmm...K's. Without Kalimac, there really isn't anything else. There's Kuduk, the Westron name for Hobbits, but it doesn't specify a person! I think you're the stumper Firefoot!

Tuor of Gondolin · 07-29-2004, 11:23 AM

Okay. If interested, Firefoot can start a new round. Just be sure to specify the category.

The trick may be to make it somewhat specific but yet broad enough to be a game for a while. For example, I might have made the above category something like "hobbit nouns", although that sounds awful, to include place names, titles, and hobbit names.

Ok, the new category is Places not in Middle-earth.

Start with Numenor.
