Legate of Amon Lanc · 01-07-2008, 11:48 AM

Sarn Athrad

Gil-Galad · 01-09-2008, 11:45 AM

South-East

Legate of Amon Lanc · 01-23-2008, 04:11 PM

Ossiriand as a whole?

Gil-Galad · 01-30-2008, 12:42 PM

... well its Tol Galen, which is in Ossiriand... don't do that again, got to say an exact place, not a region... your turn legate.

Legate of Amon Lanc · 01-30-2008, 03:36 PM

Well, the problem is one can say a region as much as anything else... especially with little regions it is a problem, or, what if you have a region where there's nothing? Although, I expected you, if it's a part of the region I said, to simply say "no, it's a part of it" and we'll continue running around the small places until it's found...

That's why I intentionally wrote the words "as whole" as distinction so that you could say "no, not as whole, just a part". Shame, I suggest we do it like that in further cases.

Anyway, when it's already my turn... from Tol Galen, let's go to the north-west.

McCaber · 01-30-2008, 04:38 PM

The Falls of Sirion?

Legate of Amon Lanc · 01-30-2008, 04:51 PM

Still North-West.

The Might · 03-27-2008, 01:39 PM

the Firth of Drengist

Legate of Amon Lanc · 03-27-2008, 01:44 PM

Now I would like to know what I had in mind

*takes out the map of Beleriand*

Please wait, loading...

Ah! I have it. I know what I had in mind.

East.

The Might · 03-27-2008, 02:19 PM

Cirith Ninniach

Legate of Amon Lanc · 03-27-2008, 02:22 PM

How did you know?

Your turn.

The Might · 03-28-2008, 09:53 AM

I read your thoughts...

Anyways, from Cirith Ninniach, let us go east, so far east that we again enter Middle-earth.

Legate of Amon Lanc · 03-28-2008, 10:10 AM

Okay, so let's say, Minas Tirith, for start?

The Might · 03-28-2008, 10:28 AM

That would be rather south east, don't you think?
Go north, pilgrim!

Legate of Amon Lanc · 03-28-2008, 11:21 AM

At least I know it's not more East.

What about Amon Lanc?

The Might · 03-28-2008, 09:09 PM

North

Legate of Amon Lanc · 03-29-2008, 05:11 AM

What about Mountains of Mirkwood then?

Gil-Galad · 03-29-2008, 12:43 PM

Mt. Gundabad?

The Might · 03-29-2008, 06:56 PM

Mts of Mirkwood -> north
Mt Gundabad -> east

Legate of Amon Lanc · 03-30-2008, 05:09 AM

The Grey Mountains?

The Might · 03-31-2008, 08:00 AM

More clarity.

Legate of Amon Lanc · 03-31-2008, 09:22 AM

Withered Heath, then?

The Might · 03-31-2008, 11:43 AM

yes

Legate of Amon Lanc · 03-31-2008, 11:45 AM

Ah, nice... all right... from here, we go to... hum, hmm... south

Gollum the Great · 04-03-2008, 09:05 PM

Erebor

Legate of Amon Lanc · 04-04-2008, 04:10 AM

Nope. Still south.

The Might · 04-05-2008, 04:26 AM

Orodruin

Legate of Amon Lanc · 04-05-2008, 05:18 AM

South-east.

Annunfuiniel · 04-05-2008, 07:59 AM

Lake Núrnen?

Legate of Amon Lanc · 04-05-2008, 10:03 AM

Precisely. Your turn, give us a direction.

Annunfuiniel · 04-05-2008, 10:41 AM

Ok, now from this lovely waterfront take a turn towards north-west.

Gollum the Great · 04-05-2008, 12:39 PM

Let's say Esgaroth.

Legate of Amon Lanc · 04-05-2008, 12:54 PM

Are you sure this is north-west?

I would say Fangorn.

Annunfuiniel · 04-05-2008, 01:14 PM

Gollum, you need to direct your steps way towards south-west.

Legate, you're heading in the right direction so keep on going north-west.

Legate of Amon Lanc · 04-05-2008, 01:35 PM

What about Tharbad, then?

Annunfuiniel · 04-05-2008, 01:45 PM

From Tharbad towards east.

Gil-Galad · 04-05-2008, 02:15 PM

Caradhras.

Annunfuiniel · 04-06-2008, 12:58 AM

Back towards west.

Gil-Galad · 04-06-2008, 01:07 PM

Eregion Region?

Annunfuiniel · 04-06-2008, 01:27 PM

And the road goes ever...westwards.
