Hey, don't beat yourself up over it.

Sorry 'bout that yoda, I was a little tired from the rest of the day, I suppose.

Set 3:
Who informs Galadriel and Celeborn of Gandalf's fate? Legolas

Which Race does Saruman say there will be "no dawn" for? Men

Were does the Orc Gothmog kill Faramir's Lieutenant Madril? Osgiliath

What symbol is depiced on the clasp of Theoden's cloak? Sun

How many members of the fellowship carry bows? 2

How many frames per second were shot to give Galadriel's temptation an otherworldly feel - 24, 48, or 72? 48


A change in plans. I'll no longer be posting cards from the trivial ursuit game. It's quite tedious typing up six questions if there not short and posting the answers is a hassle as well, mainly because I planned things a little poorly.

Anyways, all of the rules from before apply, except the old scoring system will be abolished. And, I'll not be the only one posting questions.

Here's how its going to work, prospectively:
-Someone will post one question, on anything Lord of the Rings (although, to be fair, I'd try to keep them within the realm of the Trilogy movies/ books and the hobbit, perhaps also BfME, although, that'd be ratherpointless, imo.).

-If there are any correct answers within two days of posting, the first person to correctly answer will then post another question.

-If there is no right answers after two days, the original poster has to post a new question.

-At the moment, I've planned the scores as two for a correct answer, 1 for a nearly correct, 0 for a wrong answer. And, if someone is partially right, don't tell them 'Yeah, that's pretty close." Cause that'll tell everyone what the answer might be.

-One guess per person per question.

Which one?

Answer could be Balrog of Khazad Dum (Nain I I believe), but more likely to be Azog of Moria (Dain, king under the mountain during WotR, 's father).

Despair is only for those who see the end beyond all doubt. We do not. It is wisdom to recognize necessity, when all other courses have been weighed, though as folly it may appear to those who cling to false hope. Well, let folly be our cloak, a veil before the eyes of the Enemy! For he is very wise, and weighs all things to a nicety in the scales of his malice. But the only measure that he knows is desire, desire for power; and so he judges all hearts. Into his heart the thought will not enter that any will refuse it, that having the Ring we may seek to destroy it. If we seek this, we shall put him out of reckoning.

He died while he was hunting a boar.

Really? Wow. The father of the first ruling steward was known for hunting down ... an ox? Not something I would want to be known for. I mean, yea, I looked it up, and theyre hardier and wilder than other cattle, but thats not saying much. If theyre as slow as other ox you would have no problem hunting one down, and theres not even a nessesarily low number of them. When someone hunts something down and the horn they make from it is a renouned family heirloom, you just sort of assume its a boar. Maybe someone such as mike or AA Ip'er who knows something more of the subject of Kine of Araw and hunting could enlighten me but cutting off an ox's horn just doesn't seem like such an acomplishment to me.
