Lindolirian · 12-29-2002, 02:58 PM

Durin-> Aulë-> Saruman-> Merry-> Samwise

Bruce MacCulloch · 12-29-2002, 08:44 PM

Your turn.

Lindolirian · 12-29-2002, 09:07 PM

Mahal-> Gaffer Gamgee

Pallando B.C · 12-29-2002, 09:18 PM

Mahal -> Saruman -> Frodo -> Gaffer Gamgee

Lindolirian · 12-29-2002, 09:20 PM

You are right.

Pallando B.C · 12-29-2002, 09:26 PM

Farmer Maggot -> Melian

Lindolirian · 12-29-2002, 09:30 PM

Maggot-> (Merry, Pippin, Frodo, Sam)-> Galadriel-> Melian

Pallando B.C · 12-29-2002, 09:37 PM

Yes.

Lindolirian · 12-29-2002, 09:42 PM

Vairë-> Diamond of Long Cleeve

Beren87 · 01-02-2003, 09:58 PM

Vaire-Mandos-Aule-Gandalf-Peregrin Took-Diamond

A first attempt...

Lindolirian · 01-05-2003, 05:11 PM

And a very good one at that!
I'll take it, but a safer route would be:
Vaire-> Mandos-> Manwe-> Gandalf and so on because while Aule and Gandalf most likely did know each other, it was Manwe who nominated Gandalf (Olorin) to go to Middle Earth as an Istari, so I would have done that, but you are correct anyways.

Beren87 · 01-05-2003, 05:22 PM

Hmm..Also could replace Gandalf with Saruman.

Gollum-Elendil

Lindolirian · 01-05-2003, 05:55 PM

Ahh, that too...

Gollum-> Aragorn-> Elrond-> Elendil

Beren87 · 01-05-2003, 09:35 PM

Aye, I made that one quite easy didn't I. [img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img]

Your turn Lindolirian.

Lindolirian · 01-06-2003, 03:00 PM

Aye, always trying to think of harder questions; its the hardest part of quizzes!

William the Troll-> Ecthelion of Gondolin

Beren87 · 01-06-2003, 03:15 PM

William the Troll-Gandalf-Manwe-Orome-Turin-Turgon-Echthelion

There's probably an easier way, but thats what I came up with for now.

Lindolirian · 01-06-2003, 03:25 PM

Yes, there is an easier way and it's gotta be 6 degrees of seperation.

Beren87 · 01-06-2003, 03:29 PM

Well there are 6 seperations, just 7 people. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

I'll see what I can come up with.

Lindolirian · 05-16-2005, 08:12 PM

Pimpernel Took-> Maglor

The Elf-warrior · 05-20-2005, 02:05 PM

Pimpernel Took -> (Pippin) -> Elrond -> Maglor

Lindolirian · 05-20-2005, 02:19 PM

You bet!

Beren87 · 01-06-2003, 03:33 PM

William the Troll-Gandalf-Durin's Bane-Gothmog-Echthelion

That perhaps works, as Durin's Bane would have had to have 'met' Gothmog, Lord of the Balrogs.

Lindolirian · 01-06-2003, 04:46 PM

That was precisely what I was thinking. Go ahead, Beren!

Beren87 · 01-06-2003, 05:09 PM

Woohoo!

Bard-Feanor

Lindolirian · 01-06-2003, 05:14 PM

Bard-> Gandalf-> Manwë-> Fëanor
or
Bard-> Bilbo-> Frodo-> Galadriel-> Fëanor

Beren87 · 01-06-2003, 06:01 PM

Ah, I'm going to have to work harder at this. The second one was what I had in mind.

Your turn of course.

Lindolirian · 01-06-2003, 07:06 PM

Enerdhil-> Lorgan

Lindolirian · 01-12-2003, 07:30 PM

Anybody?

Beren87 · 01-12-2003, 07:38 PM

I cannot seem to find who on Middle-Earth Enerdhil was...

Lindolirian · 01-12-2003, 07:40 PM

That's the whole idea, my friend...

He's in a small chapter within a chapter of a ....book... hehehe [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img]

[ January 12, 2003: Message edited by: Lindolirian ]

Beren87 · 01-12-2003, 07:46 PM

Well, he doesn't seem to be in LotR or The Silm, unless he is in Rotk's appendices.

Lindolirian · 01-12-2003, 07:48 PM

Hint: akhtene wouldn't know because she doesn't have the book.

unless by some odd chance she does know and in that case, she'd better go ahead and post! [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Beren87 · 01-12-2003, 08:23 PM

Aha!

Enerdhil-Idril-Tuor-Lorgan

Lindolirian · 01-12-2003, 08:38 PM

That's it!

Beren87 · 01-12-2003, 09:10 PM

Mim-Treebeard

Pallando B.C · 01-12-2003, 09:29 PM

Mîm ->Húrin ->Elwë ->Galadriel ->Gandalf ->Treebeard

I don't think Galadriel met Treebeard or if Húrin met Galadriel, but if either one of those metting occured, you can deduct the chain for me.

Beren87 · 01-12-2003, 09:42 PM

Wow, that was EXACTLY the way I did it. Your turn! (and I don't think they met either)

Pallando B.C · 01-12-2003, 09:52 PM

Oromë ->Beorn

As short as possible.

Beren87 · 01-12-2003, 10:00 PM

Oromë-Melkor-Smaug-Bilbo-Beorn

Pallando B.C · 01-13-2003, 01:19 AM

Close, but no cigar.

You have four degrees of Seperation, it is possible to get three.
