A bit more than a year?
It was less than a year. Around 8 -10 months, I guess!
Tommie's 'A bit more than a year' is the best answer. And is worth the Pseudo-Silmaril.

The one that is not good to taste? (Logic: Sour One)
Is it 'Abhorred one?' Is it? Is it? Is it? I've got loads of Silmarils, and NOW I shall go back in the pages of this thread and find out how many I actually have.
If this one is right, it's 26!!! Yippee!!!
next question, please
Yes it is Loni; both 'Abhorred' and 'Abominable' are acceptable answers; so another Pseudo-Silmaril for your collection.

Love your little 'Council Member' thingy that Grep no doubt gave you.
I can just FEEL my 27th... slipping through my fingers. Is that answer right?

Nope!
Amarie took some time away from her studies to design the 'Council Member' thingys so people can instantly know who are the Blue Meanies around here. I think she did a fine job given the space limitation.

Did you hear that, guys? The COuncil Members are Blue Meanies in disguise!!! Get out your Beatles records.... "Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds!!! Hey Jude!!! Eight days a week!!! The Yellow Submarine!!!" Hey, the council members are shrivelling and running away. RRR... they must be Genetically Modified Extra-Strengthified Blue MEanies.
I DON'T have 27 silmarils. Oh well, I STILL have quite a dazzling set of jewellery.

A two word answer this time: Dol Guldur
I should've known it was Dol GUldur. BUt... no wait... isn't that MIrkwood that would've been attacked by Dol Guldur? And we ARE talking about Lothlorien, aren't we?
And I thought the MIsty Mountains was th eonly bad place near Lothlorien. It's not Rhun, is it?
And I thought the MIsty Mountains was th eonly bad place near Lothlorien. It's not Rhun, is it?
Loni, I'm sorry, but I believe you accidently left your mouth running. Lord_aragorn86 has the right answer and the Pseudo-Silmaril.
Dol Guldur is a tower located in southern Mirkwood; it has often been a secondary center of Sauron's forces in the Third Age.
Which character in Tolkien's Middle-earth started out as a hobbit called 'Trotter'

Aragorn.
And actually Trotter had wooden feet as well.

Virumor has it and the Pseudo-Silmaril. Wooden feet you say, I thought that was Pinocchio.

Rrr, I'm losing my touch. I don't know ANY of these questions. Wel,l I'm going on holiday soon. Maybe I'll somehow get brainy then. Or maybe not. But I STILL have 26 silmarils.
They can't all be too obscure or too hard; nevertheless, Fingolfin gets the pretty bauble for the correct answer.
Where did the King of the Mountains swear allegiance to Isildur
Where did the King of the Mountains swear allegiance to Isildur
sory if in answering too soon, but it has been 24 hours hasnt it?
is it the stone of erech?
is it the stone of erech?
Actually Fingolfin, you waited over 25 hours since your last answer, but that is not the required waiting period. You only waited 4 hours of the specified 24 hours after I post the next question which is the required waiting period. Howsomeever, your answer is correct and as you are somewhat new and did know you were supposed to wait, I'll give you the pretty bauble.
What was the name of Tom Bombadil's pony
What was the name of Tom Bombadil's pony
Tom Bombadil's pony is named Lumpkin
Well, yes and no.
Fatty Lumpkin

Well Adreia had a portion of the answer and deserves some credit; however, Shaya puma had the pony's full name for the Pseudo-Silmaril.
Why did Merry and Pippin have reason to thank Grishn’kh
Why did Merry and Pippin have reason to thank Grishn’kh
He wanted to eat Merry and Pippin so the Uruk-hai fought giving them a chance to run.
Apart from that , Grishnakh took the two hobbitses out near the edge of the forest away from the midst of the orc gaurding party. After Grishnakh was killed from an arrow shot by the Rohirrim horse archer, Merry and Pippin were able to escape to freedom and Treebeard.
Sorry Sauron007, your answer didn't have quite enough meat to it: try again on the next one. Thusly, Lord_aragorn86 gets the pretty-bauble.
What is another name for Noegyth Nibin

Virumor has the correct answer and another Pseudo-Silmaril.
What arts did the D’nedain prize above all others
What arts did the D’nedain prize above all others
They prized ship-building and sea-craft as their greatest arts. Though they did not do much of this after the downfall of Numenor.
You got it Handamo and our imaginary Pseudo-Silmaril to boot. (Please read the rule in the first post in this thread if you haven't already done so.)
How did Boromir vainly try to summon help before he was killed?
How did Boromir vainly try to summon help before he was killed?
He blew upon the horn of Gondor, hoping the others would come quickly to his aid
And also hope to draw the orcs away from the others to him.
Adreia has the answer I was looking for. Lord_aragorn86, I'm not quite sure that was his intent, for at the moment the Orcs were over-running his position; he could see that by himself he could no longer protect the two hobbits; and he didn't know if any of the others were also under attack. So I really think you just forgot to add the so I would know, 'Oh, sarcasm!'. Of course I could be wrong. Anyway Adreia gets the pretty bauble.
What colors (colours) were Treebeard's eyes
What colors (colours) were Treebeard's eyes
Treebeards eyes were brown, sjot with a green light, werent they?
Yes they were Tauro, so you get the Pseudo-Silmaril.
