Anyways about the standarts I see why you raised the level, basicly to make the game more accesable for everybody. Just be careful because if you make them too vague you exclude the ones who are not particuler fond of/good at that kind of questions.

Anyways I like the question as it is now.

Good. I will try to make it clear enough in the future. So, good luck in your riddling

It was Ossë who taught teleri how to make ships, even though grieving

Hmm, Rune, what a pity

Yes, of course, you are right, Lommy. Please continue the thread

Not really. . .I did not have time or rather I did not take time to think it through and decided that I would give it ago in the early hours of the morning if nobody else had guessed it.

Of course this does limit my obviouse procrastination options, but I will survive.

But Rune, my friend! You may occupy yourself with the next question:

Huan was allowed to speak three times in his life. Name the three occasions he decided to use his ability.

First, when he spoke to Lúthien about her escape from Nargothrond.

Second, when Beren wanted Lúthien to turn back from their journey to Angband.

Third, before he died, saying goodbye to Beren.

Sorry, couldn't resist.

Yes, you're right of course. Now you can make up the next question to let Rune (or someone else) procrastinate...
