Middle Earth word game
Hey everyone. How about a new game thread?
I don't exactly know the name of this game but I'll try explaining it to you: Example of a puzzle: -My first is a female pig -My second is Harry Potter's friend The first (syllable) is "sow" and the second one is "Ron" so the word I'm looking for is "Sauron". Get it? And if you can't figure out how to write a clue to a certain syllable just take out a letter or two. For example, to enter a riddle for "Gwaihir", you can go like this: G+ my first is a question word and my second is not there. so the answer would be G+why+here= Gwaihir. Get it? Rules are as usual, whoever solves one gets to post the next. I'll start: -My first is a buddy -My second is a social insect -My third is a body organ What am I? (I hope this thread works *crosses fingers with anticipation*) |

This is neat. I just have to ask- are those clues for a person (like your first two: Sauron and Gwaihir), or for a thing (because you said 'WHAT am I')?

Well, Rosie Gamgee it is a thing alright because it's the palantir as elixir said.
Elixir your go. P.S. Sister Golden Hair, I hope you don't close this thread because of the "three active game threads" rule. Last edited by Beren3000 : 06-11-2004 at 01:25 PM. |

Well, the third would actually be lithe, but you got the right answer anyway.

Could it be celebration = tine plant = ?? unit of length = ell so the word would be Tinuviel? Anyway, great! Finally a challenging post ![]() |
