It is not a Feud about outlaws in The Lord of the Rings- it is a Feud about LotR not being hosted by **Rebo**. So it is an Outlaw Feud. DO NOT READ THIS THREAD BEFORE YOU POST YOUR ANSWERS Object of the game: Try to think of the most popular answer, to get the most people matching you. Not the answer one of the Wise would necessarily give. Only answers that are “serious” will be scored. Joke answers will not be considered, as it is not fair to other players. Scoring - Any answer duplicated by anyone else is worth 100 points divided by the number of entrants. For example: 50 entrant game = 2 pts per answer. If 4 people match that means they each get 8 pts for that answer. No matches = 0 points. The game will end either when we have 50 entrants, or at 11:00 AM Central on Sunday, 01/18/09 whichever comes first. 5 time champ at your service 1. Name a famous sword 2.

1. Name a famous sword – Sting 2. Other than Frodo, name someone who wore the One Ring – Sam 3. Name a land or “country” – Mordor 4. Name a place where a Palantir[del]i[/del] was located – Orthanc 5. Name an alias for Aragorn – Strider 6. Name one of the Valar – Elbereth 7. Name one of the 3 El[del]e[/del]ven Rings [by color, owner or name] – Nenya 8. Other than Frodo, name someone healed by Aragorn – Merry 9. Name a scene where Frodo uses the One Ring – When Boromir tries to seize it 10. Other than Baggins, give me a hobbit last name – Took Rating: NOTA. A noble effort marred by the director’s insistence on including Really Cool Stuff[sup]TM[/sup] he thought up for himself. ---

> [@Airk](#): > > Oh, er, and it’s Palantir in the singular, so either “Where one of the Palantiri was located” or “Where a Palantir was located” 😉 Thanks, I stand corrected- I struggled coming up with that question- thinking about the original tower they where placed in the Third Age and was inattentive to noun formation. “Noodles, Ninnyhammer” I forgot to post my answers before checked the thread. Oh well, have fun. Bonus answer: unfortunately RotK brings earlier noble efforts down to the Work of Mordor. ---
