Well, I was just thinking about my favorite Hobbit. . .
Yargh, I can't stand the ridiculous 90 seconds! Does make speed-posting rather difficult

Arathorn-
[edited from the original] It was a simple mistake. I'm never going to forget that one--How could I make such a dreadful error, oh the horror!

Hrrmmm. Riddles riddles....
Your're the Mouth of Sauron, In charge of thousands upon thousand of troops... And everyday, you have to keep tabs on the Dark Lord's armies as they pass through the Morannon. On the first day: 1000 orcs enter 1500 Vairiags enter 20,000 orcs leave Then on the next day: 3000 orcs enter 2000 Easterlings leave 1500 Olog-hai arrive Then on the third day: 4021 orcs leave 3400 easterlings arrive 2 small hairy footed orcs arrive What is the Mouth of Sauron's shoe size?

Elf Girl's: Small ceremony,
Thought, but wrong, Then more was brought, Ere sun's rays long. Eärniel's: A guard in a dark place A remnant of an old age Has left name, has left face Forever in a stony cage Blackheart: 1 1/2. (I have tiny feet) Me: No right answers yet, but Tano is incredibly close.

If tano's is close... then I'm gonna take another stab at it:
Elf Girl: Is it Pippin's first meeting with Denethor?

Who cares about your shoe size?!!! You just let the ring bearer and his buddy walk right in the front Door!

Elf Girl
Is it Pippin's oath to Denethor?

Hmm... just thought of something...
If my Pippin -> Denethor guess was very close... but the Pippin pledging his alliegance post wasn't... Maybe it was the act performed (meeting) not the people involved... In other, more sensical, words: Is it the meeting of Merry and Theoden?

No. Pippin is close because of Pippin and Denothor. Pledge was also close, just not as close as the meanings.

Curse you, Elf Girl! I'll get Tidbits to shoot his Pink and Purple Hearts (tm) at you!
um....so it's Pippin and Denethor, the meeting, but not the actual pledge? Yargh. This is too tricky...Denethor's questioning of Pippin? Blackheart: there is none. After you let two hairy footed orcs into Mordor, you won't have any feet left to wear shoes on... -tano

BeardofPants, why are you no longer riddling? Is it demeaning to riddle with someone ten years younger than yourself? You were so good, too...
