Nilpaurion Felagund · 01-19-2005, 11:16 PM

Is it common among those who claim to be first?

AbercrombieOfRohan · 01-24-2005, 07:26 PM

hmmm.. Don't know what you mean NIL, that's the problem with having a tricky answer, you get tricky replies.

Nilpaurion Felagund · 01-24-2005, 09:43 PM

It's Mugworts, a common surname among Bree-hobbits, who claimed to have done everything before the Shire-hobbits did.

AbercrombieOfRohan · 01-25-2005, 07:54 AM

Well the next letter is R.

Nilpaurion Felagund · 01-25-2005, 09:07 PM

Is it the vale where the Followers first awoke?

AbercrombieOfRohan · 01-26-2005, 10:28 AM

Lol. Not tricksy enough apparently... you're right Nilpaurion, it was Murmenalda, the vale where the men first awoke.

Nilpaurion Felagund · 01-26-2005, 07:18 PM

World domination is mine!

You're over-acting. It's just a bloody thread.

Ah, but it could start a chain-reaction that could have me controlling the world's major powers. Like Gondolin. Or Doriath.

Wrong age, pal.

Ahem. We need a letter.

Oh, sorry Alice.

paavo · 01-28-2005, 11:37 AM

I know I'm evil.

but at least I gave the meaning of the verb "antaa".

And since you seem to like questions involving finnish, I'll ask you one! Aren't I the nicest person.

Does it contain the finnish word for "down"? Because I'm not completely heartless I'll give you a hint that it does not mean "untuva" as some online dictionaries claim. I promise this is the last question involving any foreign language.

Neithan · 01-28-2005, 04:00 PM

Is it someone who had a depressed kid.

Firefoot · 01-28-2005, 04:14 PM

Next time I'm using Filipino against you, paavo.

Let's say for a moment that I give up. What is your answer?

paavo · 02-02-2005, 08:06 AM

Krhm... Firefoot?

Nilpaurion Felagund · 02-03-2005, 10:51 PM

Firefoot?

By February 9 I'll continue without giving a letter . . .

Firefoot · 02-04-2005, 06:08 AM

Oh! Yes, I'm here...

Hey, Nilp. You answered Aragorn once before.

Nilpaurion Felagund · 02-06-2005, 08:07 PM

I don't exactly remember what my alter-ego/s post/s.

Rule question: If Aragorn was already used, would Aragorn II be allowed?

Not if you meant Aragorn II first time round.

And if you let your alter-egos play, you have to make sure they give you a full report.
