4) high captain of Angband

Voralphion · 02-10-2004, 08:07 PM

[1] Mouth of Sauron

Finwe · 02-10-2004, 08:22 PM

7) Iorlas

Celebrian · 02-10-2004, 09:52 PM

Turambar : You are correct with 3) Utumno!

Estanesse : Try again for 4). Please!

Voralphion : Oh, You are close for 1).

Finwe : You are correct with Iorlas!

6. Bilbo?

Firefoot · 02-11-2004, 06:09 AM

5. Ent?

Celebrian · 02-11-2004, 06:10 AM

Nilparion Felagund, continue burra'ing for 6.

Firefoot: Sorry, many Ent waters cannot quench 5.

Estanesse · 02-11-2004, 07:14 AM

4) Herald of Manwë ?

Celebrian · 02-11-2004, 07:20 AM

Estanesse, that guess is wrong, but your method and persistence should pay off eventually.

Estanesse · 02-11-2004, 07:27 AM

what about 6) William

Turambar · 02-11-2004, 09:34 AM

#2 Narya ?

Celebrian · 02-11-2004, 10:10 AM

Well, William is Way off for 6, of course!

Narya is a good logical guess, Master of Doom, but I invite you to think associatively for #2

Miriel · 02-11-2004, 10:27 AM

Okay ... as a random guess ...
4) Lady of the Seas?

Celebrian · 02-11-2004, 10:49 AM

Miriel , you've got the form, but not the person. Try again!

Hmm, can't find any other Maiar that are 'Lady of ....', so will try a few Lords.

Wind Lord.....Lord of Gifts.....Lord of Mordor....Lord of the Rings...?
If you don't like random guessing, please inform me, and I'll stop.

Celebrian · 02-11-2004, 11:32 AM

*goes to check the rules on Page 1, waffles*
The ring is correct.

Miriel · 02-11-2004, 11:41 AM

Yay!
And, how about
5) Ind?
The Sindarin for inner thought, meaning, or heart; also part of the word 'mind'.

symestreem · 02-11-2004, 04:31 PM

How about Morgoth or Melkor for #1? Either that or Sauron, since he did not allow his name to be used.

Finwe · 02-11-2004, 07:33 PM

6) Mad Baggins?

Celebrian · 02-11-2004, 10:46 PM

Miriel, you are close!
Symestreem, you are close, also!
Finwe, I'm not looking for a particular hobbit for 6 (adds exclamation points for fun, anyway)!!!!!

5. Ure? The last letter of the Tengwar alphabet(redundancy, I know - sue me.

) and coincidentally means heart, which is the symbol of the most accursed day of the year - Valentines?
6. A hobbit? A burglar? A halfling? A troll? A squadron of P-3s?

Can be arranged...!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Celebrian · 02-12-2004, 07:47 AM

Nilpaurion,
5) Hroom! You seem to have two Feanorian characters mixed together, but then, that's the idea of Valentine's Day anyway, isn't it?

6) You've got the concept!

One guess at a time, please.

Turambar · 02-12-2004, 11:11 AM

#2 Ruby (Gamgee) ?

#6 Banakil ?

Celebrian, can you re-post the puzzle with the correctly guessed answers inserted?

Celebrian · 02-12-2004, 11:19 AM

Turambar, Banakil is not, but you are hot,! (woops, that sounds like a candy heart)

Edit: and Ruby is right!

I'll re-post. Give me a sec... Here it is:

1) Unnamed: Deserves no moniker (Gondorian name for Sauron)
2) Ruby Gamgee: A rosy jewel
3) Utumno: Melkor digs
4) Lord of the Ring: A Maiar's title
5) Ore: Inner mind, Valentine, heart (tengwa 21)
6) Kuduk: A burrahobbit by any other name is still a burrahobbit (Rohirric)
7) Iorlas: Bergil calls, "Uncle!"

Turambar · 02-12-2004, 12:12 PM

Banazir, then? Although Sam was not the hurrahobbit, I'm thinking associatively.

Celebrian · 02-12-2004, 12:41 PM

Turamarth, good, good! But no, Banazir is but another name...
You are so close! You are all so close!
The pass is looking better than my ol' nemesis, the Redhorn, so it should be easier to pin down than an Ork.

The Password appears to be Uruloki.

So maybe Kalimac for #6 ?

Celebrian · 02-12-2004, 01:13 PM

Kalimac! How jolly! However, you were closer with Banazir.

Hah! You've guessed the password! I assume that means you have time to make a new one, and I'm holding you to it!

""It sounds a Polarish sort of thing to do-"

Arestevana · 02-12-2004, 02:25 PM

#6 How about Kud-dukan or Kuduk?

Finwe · 02-12-2004, 08:35 PM

5) Oiolairë?

Turambar · 02-12-2004, 09:16 PM

#6 should be óre, the tengwa for "inner mind, heart".

Celebrian · 02-12-2004, 10:08 PM

Arestevana, Kuduk is correct, a Rohirric name for a burrahobbit.
Sorry, Finwe, but óre is the answer, tengwa 21.

Only 1) to go. Voralphin and symestreem are the closest guessers so far.

No. I believe the idea of Valentine's Day is to...wait...you're right! Mix up! The only day in the year when the human brain is traded for a hamster's...

Turambar · 02-13-2004, 06:23 AM

Ulairi ?

Celebrian · 02-13-2004, 08:10 AM

Nilpaurion, you have it, the (speak-no-evil) Unnamed, Gondorian reference to Sauron. That wraps it up!

Turambar, we expect your puzzle, trifle or masterpiece, next!

Turambar · 02-13-2004, 10:42 AM

1. Isenmouthe -- Sounds like a cooling cure for drouth in a dead land.
2. Leave one small bread for the second-last of his kind.
3. Un-tardy dwarf, with Gondor’s first, visits remote village.
4. Seems that 100 well prepared Bree-men were scattered and killed.
5. Alliterative lines describe legend of the faithful friend.
6. Nimloth -- Elegant court dweller wore white blossom for 30 centuries.

Celebrian · 02-13-2004, 10:48 AM

1) Isenmouthe again?
6) Telperion?

Edit: Do any of you know the ALT code for the "th" aelig character, upper and lowercase? Thanks!

Turambar · 02-13-2004, 11:05 AM

Again ? Whatever do you mean?

But

(E: on Isenmouthe, not Telperion)

Celebrian · 02-13-2004, 11:15 AM

Isenmouthe has been used two times lately in passwords. There aren't very many ME names that start with "I", are there? (Not making an assumption that the password is from ME)

2) Fimbrethil ("Wandlimb" = small + lembas + where are the Ent females anyway?)
4) Archet?
6) Silpion?

Finwe · 02-13-2004, 12:06 PM

3) Balin

5) Huan
