Dark-Eye Errr, Morsul.

A clue? I can't seem to find this one anywhere.

I haven't wanted to post here because I finally got tired of looking and used a search engine... I had the thread right (Newcomers, Introduce Yourself Here); it was some obscure member with 2 posts on the sixth page.

I don't think Morsul's been around for a while; I'd say anyone can go.

Well, I wouldn't call that strictly fair...I did try searching Novices and Newcomers, but I was searching from the end backwards, and as you can imagine it got a little tiresome...

Firefoot, you technically found it, although we shall have to take your word for it that you are right - I'd say that the next go is therefore yours.

Yes, that was him/her. Aman, I had originally tried doing the same thing. It wasn't working, and I realized that I was going fast enough that I was likely to miss it anyway.

So here's what should be a relatively easy one to get us going again:

Thumbs up Thanks

You might have to a little digging for this one.

I remember that quote and I want to test myself by not looking. I believe that it was Alatar that said that.

Edit:

I was wrong it was SpM here in the thread "If they still had Gandalf"

Well, since no-one else is biting I might as well claim that quote as my own, Mormegil.

I remember that was the first time I ever spoke to Holbytlass. A fine occasion, if I may say so.

You are correct and it was either the first or one of the first major discussions I was in and rather enjoyed it, even though you and I didn't see eye to eye on the issue.

It was a pretty good thread, if I may say so myself.

Try this one for size, one of my all-time favourite Barrow-Downs quotes:

"...and now your fangéd triumvirate can name them as suspects to deflect attention from yourselves!"

An easy one, perhaps; but worthy.

That looks like it was part of one of the Werewolf games. The only problem will be trying to find which one. If I'm right that is.....

I know this is going to be totally wrong but if I recall correctly I read a topic a few years ago where someone made a note of civillized uruk-hai (or maybe orcs), I believe the username was something Silverleaf or Leafsilver. I don't think that member is active anymore.

We can safely assume, by the awful spelling of civilised, that he is not American.

I'm not sure if he is or not but I'll say

Arry.

if not do you have little hint for me?
