10 day rule...
New question.
How many days was Gandalf imprisioned at Orthanc?

The Perky Ent · 04-11-2004, 08:32 PM

2 months so like 62 days?

Fingolfin II · 04-11-2004, 10:15 PM

I think it's 70 days- He was imprisoned July 10th and escaped September 18th.

The original Very Easy Trivia has reached its 10-page limit and so i'm reviving it. Rules for the game are:

O.K. In this thread you can only ask very easy questions. You shouldn't have to look them up. This is for all of the Newbies and people who don't own all of the books.

So you basically say easy things that people should be able to obtain easily, hense the title.

Lutien-Elvenprincess asked the question:

while Fingolfin II guessed:

That about covers it! Carry on

luthien-elvenprincess · 04-12-2004, 07:02 PM

Fingolfin II is correct.

Fingolfin II · 04-12-2004, 11:01 PM

Thnx Luthien. How many Istari were there?

NightKnight · 04-13-2004, 05:53 AM

Five - Gandalf, Saruman, Radagast, Alatar and Pallando.

Fingolfin II · 04-13-2004, 06:05 AM

Of course

.

NightKnight · 04-13-2004, 06:08 AM

Give three names for the place where the Ring could be destroyed.

Fingolfin II · 04-13-2004, 06:10 AM

Mount Doom; Sammath Naur; Orodruin.

NightKnight · 04-13-2004, 06:11 AM

Your turn.

Fingolfin II · 04-14-2004, 01:00 AM

Cool, what was the name of Fili and Kili's mother?

Thorongil · 04-14-2004, 01:47 AM

Dis?

Fingolfin II · 04-14-2004, 02:30 AM

Yep

.

Thorongil · 04-14-2004, 03:34 AM

Give me another name for Saruman.

Fingolfin II · 04-14-2004, 04:43 AM

Curunir?

The Perky Ent · 04-14-2004, 09:49 AM

Well, there's Curumo, Curunir like Fingolfin said, and Sharkey, my personal favorite

Thorongil · 04-15-2004, 02:43 AM

I only asked for one, so Fingolfin II is up.

Fingolfin II · 04-15-2004, 03:15 AM

Cheers Thorongil.

What relation did Gandalf say Radagast was to him in The Hobbit?

The Perky Ent · 04-15-2004, 09:24 AM

cousins?

Fingolfin II · 04-15-2004, 06:51 PM

Yep.

The Perky Ent · 04-15-2004, 07:04 PM

cool...right...new question!

Nenya is the ring of ___

Fingolfin II · 04-15-2004, 08:56 PM

Adamant.

Sirithheruwen · 04-20-2004, 02:16 PM

I've never done this before, but uh...

*BUMPITY-BUMP-BUMP*

The Perky Ent · 04-20-2004, 04:47 PM

True...but unfortunatly, not what i'm looking for!

Sirithheruwen · 04-20-2004, 06:53 PM

Galadriel?
Lothlorien?

The Perky Ent · 04-20-2004, 06:59 PM

WOAH! that's right

Sirithheruwen · 04-20-2004, 07:02 PM

Just a wild guess in the dark...

Q: What was Merry's full name...spelled correctly, since it's so darn easy!

***Gandalf*** · 04-20-2004, 07:34 PM

Meriadoc brandybuck?

Sirithheruwen · 04-21-2004, 07:24 AM

Yuppers!
Your go ***gandalf***!
BTW, welcome to the 'Downs! Enjoy being dead!

nynnd1 · 04-26-2004, 07:33 AM

I got a quick one i would just like to stick in.

In the book how many Hobbits set out from Hobbiton?

**The Saucepan Man** · 04-26-2004, 07:37 AM

Nynnd1, as you will see from the Quiz Room rules, it is the person who correctly answers a question who gets to ask the next one. So it is ***gandalf***'s turn. But if he hasn't asked a question within 10 days from his answer being confirmed, then anyone can go.

***Gandalf*** · 04-26-2004, 06:32 PM

now, who was the most famous nine fingered hobbit?

The Perky Ent · 04-26-2004, 06:33 PM

frodo!

Fingolfin II · 05-08-2004, 11:04 PM

***Gandalf***?

Mad Baggins · 05-10-2004, 03:31 PM

It's been 10 days, so...

Who was Sam's cousin who saw the walking tree?

Olorin_TLA · 05-10-2004, 03:54 PM

Andy?

Quicksilver_Sprite · 05-14-2004, 12:23 PM

Mad Baggins? Are you alive?

Anyway, for my guesses:

Tom? Hamfast? ...Bob?

Mad Baggins · 05-14-2004, 03:30 PM

No, I'm dead! This is the Downs, after all.

All guesses are incorrect so far.
