Lindolirian · 07-17-2003, 04:37 PM

Pipe
Umbrella
Sword
Hat
Mirror
Bookcase

Cinderella · 07-17-2003, 04:57 PM

I'm going to say sword because it's not something that Bilbo left to someone when he departed the Shire...? (though I'm not sure where the hat comes in.... that my guess...)

Luthien_ Tinuviel · 07-17-2003, 07:16 PM

Hat, because it is the only thing that Bilbo didn't give away?

Lindolirian · 07-17-2003, 07:43 PM

Luthien has it.

Cinderella · 07-17-2003, 07:49 PM

AArrrghhh....so close... cheers to Luthien for beign a sharper knife than me!

Luthien_ Tinuviel · 07-18-2003, 10:59 AM

Sorry Cinderella, you were so close...
Vingilot
Guthwine
Herugrim
elanor
simbelmyne

Gil-Galad · 07-18-2003, 01:16 PM

Bilbo did give a sword away, Sting to Frodo

Gwaihir the Windlord · 07-19-2003, 02:07 AM

I believe she said that the hat was the only thing not given away, Gil-Galad [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img].

God I'm tired... too tired for a guess I'm afraid [img]smilies/frown.gif[/img]

Gil-Galad · 07-19-2003, 10:35 AM

i know i meant cindrella seesh! she said that Bilbo didn't give a sword away!

Horse-Maiden of the Shire · 07-20-2003, 04:43 PM

She said that Bilbo didn't give a sword away when he departed the Shire.

Elanor, because it is the only thing to do with Lothlorien? All the others are Rohan-related, I believe.

Luthien_ Tinuviel · 07-20-2003, 04:55 PM

Horse-Maiden... sorry, but no. Only three of the items listed are Rohan-related. But now I know that the trap I set up worked! Ahaha! Evil, aren't I? [img]smilies/evil.gif[/img]

07-21-2003, 01:16 AM

Is it Vingilot, because Vingilot was the only one of those to reach Aman?

Eruanna · 07-21-2003, 04:19 PM

Elanor is the only one which is the name of a person as well as a "thing"?

Luthien_ Tinuviel · 07-21-2003, 06:37 PM

Eruanna, you have a good reason but not the one I was looking for. Venyatuima got it. I guess it wasn't that hard after all!
[img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

07-22-2003, 03:18 AM

Righty-ho then [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] let's see ... hmmm ...

Galadriel
Celeborn
Elrond
Gil-Galad
Thranduil

It's not that hard [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img] have fun!

LePetitChoux · 07-22-2003, 06:07 AM

Thranduil, the only one of them not to have dwelt in Valinor, begore or after the War of the Ring.

**The Saucepan Man** · 07-22-2003, 11:33 AM

Um, this is the "odd item out" game, so questions have to consist of groups of items (ie inanimate objects) so as to distiguish it from the other odd one out games (there is "odd man out", "out place out" and even "odd creature out").

Its an easy mistake to make if you don't know about the other threads, so don't worry. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Venyatuima, please say if LePetitChoux is right, in which case she can carry on with an item-related question. If not, then I would suggest that you post a new question (item-related, of course). [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img] You can then save your other question for the "odd man out" game. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Estanesse · 09-08-2003, 04:12 PM

It seems Venyatuima is not going to answer and it is more then 10 days ago, so I will give a new question

Anduril
Silmaril
Dragon-helm of Dor-lómin
Gurthang
Nenya

Evisse the Blue · 09-08-2003, 04:29 PM

Well, the Silmarils were the ones that started a war...No, that's not my answer.
Is it Nenya, because all the others had more than one master, were used by more than one person, that is?

[ September 08, 2003: Message edited by: Evisse the Blue ]

Estanesse · 09-08-2003, 05:13 PM

Good guess but no

alquadae · 09-13-2003, 08:38 PM

The dragon helm did not shine ?

Estanesse · 09-14-2003, 03:42 PM

Nope.

alquadae · 09-15-2003, 03:23 PM

Nenya was the only thing not to come in direct contact with one of Morgoths lot?

Cuthalion · 09-15-2003, 08:19 PM

Anduril...the only item broken then re-made?

Lyta_Underhill · 09-15-2003, 11:15 PM

Gurthang, the only one that spoke?

Estanesse · 09-16-2003, 03:23 AM

Sorry Lyta Underhill Gurthang is right Item but for the wrong reason.

Evisse the Blue · 09-17-2003, 04:15 AM

Gurthang - the only one that turned against his master?

Estanesse · 09-17-2003, 09:47 AM

Nope sorry you’re not even close

Gil-Galad · 09-18-2003, 04:11 PM

Gurthang was the only one too be used aganest a dragon

Estanesse · 09-19-2003, 01:29 AM

Estanesse · 09-21-2003, 02:45 AM

You are really close to the answer Arestevana

Arestevana · 09-22-2003, 02:40 PM

[img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img] I think 'close' is the best I'm going to get. How about it was not (in some form) promised to a dwarf, or dwarves?

Estanesse · 09-22-2003, 03:20 PM

Nope that is not the answer. I will give another hint.

Gurthang was made by an elf who was taught by the dwarves?
