"CC - Tuor never got back to this, so I'll assume he forgot about it. I looked it up and think you deserve it - because you're correct! And it was the 'Tengwar' which were written with a pen or brush and the 'Cirth' which were inscribed. VERY GOOD! And... your turn!"

Sorry about that. That's correct.

Closer still... and it's in the lower half of the 3300's... and is not a nice, even round number.

Wasn't 3329 - and I only asked for the year. You already tried 3300. It is somewhere between the two... on the high side.

No, I haven't - I tried 3330. And the first one wasn't really serious...
Hmmmmm.....

Not 3320 or 3325, it's not a multiple of either 2 or 3 or 5... in fact, I figured out it's a prime number and the 'XY' in '33XY' is also a prime number... if that helps!
