It's the Palantir of Fortune!

[tapstree]

There was no copyright, so i bring you this idea from another site. *evil grin*

You will be given a phrase or quote. Choose a letter, and our lovely assistant, Yavanna White, will turn them over as they're called. First person to solve gets to set the next puzzle.

Rules are simple:

One letter per person per day, but you can solve anytime.
If the phrase is in a different language, it must be made known.
Puzzles can be as short or as long as desired - keep it manageable, though.
Hints can be given at the discretion of the person setting the phrase. Flagrant bribing is encouraged.
This was strictly a LotR game over at the site that it was stolen from; but it could be on any topic/genre/blahblah, as long as it's clearly specified what.


i'll start and make it simple (from FotR):

"_ _ _ _/ _ _ _ _/ _ _ _ _/ _ _ _ _ _ _ _/ _ _ _ _ _.// _ _ _/ _ _ _ _/ _ _ _ _/ _ _ _/ _ _ _ _ _ _ _/ _ _ _ _."

EDIT: vBBoard won't automatically recognise word breaks, so you have to show them yourself.

This thread is dedicated to Raising Iron. Wherever you are, i hope you got that heavy metal band together and you're making sweet music. ;)

[Zippy]

S! S! S!

Can I buy a vowel?

[Xyla]

Can I've a T for Thomas thankyou

EDIT: WHOOOOAH Simulpost!!

[Aina]

can I have an A for ketchup. :p

[tapstree]

You *can* buy a vowel, Swendula; but that'll have to wait til tomorrow - one letter per day :D.

"_a_ _/ t_at/ _ _ _ _/ _ _ s_ _ _ _/ _ _at_.// A _ _/ s_ _ _/ t_at/ _ _ _/ _ _s_ _ _ _/ _ _ _ _."

Woohoo! Two contestants!!:clap:

Oops, Aina, you snuck in there so quietly :).

[Ithilriel]

Oo! Oo! Pick me! H! H! H!

[tapstree]

"_a_ _/ that/ _ _ _ _/ _ _s_ _ _ _/ _ _ath.// A_ _/ s_ _ _/ that/ _ _ _/ _ _s_ _ _ _/ _ _ _ _./"

[Ardwinna]

Ardwinna jumps up and down excitedly...

I know it, I know it, I KNOW IT!!!! :D :D :D

It is...

Many that live deserve death. And some that die deserve life.

YAY!! :D

I haven't got time to post a puzzle just yet, but I'll be back with a new one SOON! :D

[tapstree]

ding-ding-ding-ding-ding-ding-ding

Well done, Ardwinna! You win an all-expense-paid trip to the Literary Forum where you'll have unlimited posting privileges! :)

EDIT:
Haha, that was just what we had behind door number 1, Ardwinna!

So what prizes do we really have in store for our lucky winner then?

Commentator: Ooohhhh, Bob, we have a LOVELY ring, cast in the deepest fires of Mount Doom itself. Among other things, it's extremely rare, and has a wonderful Elvish inscription. It is also a useful homing device for Dark Lords.

Over here, we have for you your VERY OWN FUZZY BEDROOM SLIPPERS WITH BALROG HEADS ON THE TOES! Shown here in fuschia, you can have your choice of electric blue, black, firey red, or neon green.

There'd be more to come if i wasn't so tired, so i'll stop here ;).

[Théodwyn]

Ooooh, oooh! I'll have a pair of electric-blue Balrog-head slippers!
Whaddaya mean, I haven't won?! I'm a spectator! Spectators deserve prizes too, you know. No? Fine. Be that way.

slips tap a 20

[Ardwinna]

Aww, tap... I really would like a pair of the Balrog-head fuzzy slippers in fiery red... but that Ring is awfully tempting ;) :D

Theo, yes, you get a consolation prize... a 24-carat gold stick-pin mallorn brooch ;) :D

Okay, puzzle for today is another LOTR one. It is...

"_ _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ / _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ / _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ ?"


:D

[Théodwyn]

takes out her pom poms

Gimme an s! :D

[Ardwinna]

Okay!

"_ _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ / _ _ _ / _ _ _ s _ / _ _ _ / _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ ?"

:D

Do you know what it is yet? Huh? Huh??? :p

[Yaksha]

T!!!

:D

[Ardwinna]

OK, T it is!

"_ _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ / t _ _ / _ _ _ s _ / _ _ _ / t _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ ?"


*chortle*

This is heaps of fun! :clap:

Inspired pilfering, tap! :D

[Hellga]

A :D

I have never been good at these games... but I like them anyway :D

[Ardwinna]

Aw, but Hellga, with your intimidating knowledge of Tolkien trivia, you should be able to ace the LOTR puzzles! :D

"_ _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ / t _ _ / _ _ _ s _ / a _ _ / t _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ ?"

[Xyla]

I'll have an H for Harry thankyou

[tapstree]

LOL@Theo.

i call an E, please.

[Ardwinna]

H and E coming right up!

"_ h e _ e / _ _ _ / t h e / h _ _ s e / a _ _ / t h e / _ _ _ e _ ?"


:D

[Hellga]

I don't know if I can answer today, but I know

Where are the horse and the rider?

Will be back soon with anothe puzzle :D

[tapstree]

Oh, yeah, you can solve anytime, even if you've requested a letter, Hellga :).

[Ardwinna]

:clap: YAY, HELLGA!!!! :clap:

Even though the second word is 'now'... but I'll give it to you ;) :D

Like tap earlier, I am way too tired to think of a prize right now :o

I will be back with one after I have slept :)

[Hellga]

Here is one for you :D

"_ _ _ / _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ / _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ / _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ _"

I hope I did not skip any letters :eek:

[Yaksha]

Gimme an R!

Also, are we still on the topic of Lord of the Rings? (tapstree said we can do other categories as well, since a LotR version only would go into the Movie Discussion :))

Edit: Wait, I guessed a letter today for Ardwinna, do I have to wait tomorrow to guess on Hellga's or does it restart?

[Lady_Corleone]

Gimme.... an A!

[tapstree]

Yaksha - i'd say you can go more than once in a day if it's for different puzzles. Just want to keep people from being puzzle hogs, y'know? ;)

[Hellga]

It is LotR for now. And I think it does restart, because it is a different puzzle.

"_ _ _ / _ _ _ _ / _ _ a _ / _ _ _ / _ _ a r _ / _ _ / _ _ r _ _ / _ _ a _ / _ _ _ / _ r _ / _ _ a _ / _ _ _ / _ _ a r _"

[XELA]

Gimmie an S! Hope it hasn't allready been said.

[Hellga]

Here, have some :D

"_ _ _ / _ _ _ _ / _ _ a _ / _ _ _ / _ _ a r s / _ s / _ _ r s _ / _ _ a _ / _ _ _ / _ r _ / _ _ a _ / _ _ _ / _ _ a r s"

[Evenstar_18]

I'll try an L!!:p (Can I join?:rolleyes: ) ~Evenstar


PS to Hellga: I am really bad at orgo:(

[Mormegil]

But I haven't the time to run one myself so will just help people out and ask

Is there a W :)

[tapstree]

Whoopee!! We've managed to rope Mormie into the Pony :). Hi Mormie :kiss:. Hope this means we'll be seeing a lot more of you.

Nice evil Arwen there. Is this her Halloween persona:D.

[Hellga]

"_ _ _ / w _ l _ / _ _ a _ / _ _ _ / _ _ a r s / _ s / w _ r s _ / _ _ a _ / _ _ _ / _ r _ / _ _ a _ / _ _ _ / _ _ a r s"

Two "W" and one "L" :D

Taps, aren't you going to guess a letter? ;)

Hellga hugs Evenstar

It is a tought class. I am also taking it (I only took high school before, now I am taking college one for chem majors), and I know it isn't easy. I must put more time into it than I do, but there are only 24 hours in a day... We will pull it through :)

[Ardwinna]

Could I have a D for Derek please, Hellga?

:D

[Lady_Corleone]

and an "O" as in Oliphaunt! :)

[Xyla]

Can I've a T for Terrific?

[Hellga]

"T _ _ / w o l _ / t _ a t / o _ _ / _ _ a r s / _ s / w o r s _ / t _ a _ / t _ _ / o r _ / t _ a t / o _ _ / _ _ a r s"

No "D", Ardwinna, sorry to disappoint you :)

[Yaksha]

Oh! I see! One of my favorite Boromir lines!

"The wolf that one hears is worst than the orc that one fears"

:D

Goodness that was difficult. I was racking my brain for so long :D

[Ardwinna]

I see it now :rolleyes:

See, people? There's a good reason that I never venture into Lit discussion :o

Can we have a new puzzle, Yakky? :)

[Yaksha]

Sure thing :) This game is really addicting!

OK, gonna venture out of LotR ... we'll put this in the category of Famous (or perhaps "recognizable" quotes)

_ _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ _/ _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ _

Good luck :)

[Ardwinna]

Yes, it IS addicting... I'm sure hooked! :D

Could I please have a T for terrific?

:D

[Xyla]

I'd like an S for Samantha thanks Yakky :)

[Yaksha]

T and S coming up!

T _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ _/ _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ / t _ _ / _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ s

[Hellga]

Give me an H for "Hellga" :p

And go ask question in the Trivia Thread. Yes, while I AM on line ;) :D

[Yaksha]

One H coming up!

T h _ / _ _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ _/ _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ / t h _ / _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ s

Oh, I'm at work right now, can't think of anything good, I'll be home in about 20 minutes, so just hold on till then ;)

[citron]

I really should be getting to bed, but not before asking for an L for "lotr" :)

[Yaksha]

T h _ / _ _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ _/ _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ / t h _ / l _ _ _ / _ _ _ s

:)

[citron]

Only one 'L'? Looks at the time Why am I not in bed yet?:o

[Aina]

Yakky, Give me an A for Aina!

[Yaksha]

T h _ / _ _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ _/ _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ / t h _ / l a _ _ / _ _ _ s


And another letter is added to the pot :)

[tapstree]

rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr, please.

And a hint? please? (speaker, topic, etc.)

[lyric]

hmmm, this game seems strangely familiar Tap:D


Can I have a "G" please

[Xyla]

OK. its a new day Australian time... :)
Can I've an N for Neith's a hottie?

[elf-friend]

ooh, a guessing game! and it doesn't involve my weight in red snapper!:D

gimme an E for elf-friend!

[Evenstar_18]

I'll try and M Yakky.:D

[horsey]

Can I buy an I?

[citron]

[dumb ass] I'd like to solve the puzzle, Yak.

'The something something something something something the
something something.... Did I win?:rolleyes: [/dumb ass]

Just waiting for the next letters to be turned.

[Yaksha]

I added in an R, G, E, M, and I

I didn't do the N because I think we're on a 24 hour = a day, not a Monday/Tuesday type thing :p Unless tapstree says it's OK, being the thie ... err ... maker ... of the game :notworthy

EDIT: Due to tapstree's reply below, I have added in the letter N (there! Ya happy now Xyla??? :p :kiss: )

Let's just try not to get too crazy, like posting at 11:30 PM and again at 12:30 AM saying it's a new day :)

T h e / _ _ i _ _ / _ r _ _ n/ _ _ _ / _ _ m _ e _ / _ _ e r / t h e / l a _ _ / _ _ g s

A hint? Hmm ... it's not really a specific quote that anyone said ... but it is typed a lot.

Another hint, try guessing some uncommon letters ;)

[tapstree]

i think that we can go on the honour-system with the 24-hour thing, Yak, and let people operate in their respective time-zones.

Can't get too anal, cos then we'll all have to arm-wrestle over whose time-zone gets to be the default. You were expecting EST, weren'tcha? ;):p

Seriously, what do you all think?

Some hints you've got there, mate. :rolleyes: :kiss:

[tomme2]

"The quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dogs"?
(frankly I take offense at the suggestion that dogs are inherently 'lazy'. Haven't you ever heard the expression, 'working like a dog'? That, more than anything sums up the true nature of the noble canine spirit!)

[Yaksha]

Go tomme! Good, I was just about to head to school and wasn't sure how much time I'd be on in the next 6 hours :)

Yes, the answer was "The quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dogs" This sentance contains every letter of the alphabet. People use it to practice typing or use it to make sure all the keys on a typewriter is working :)

Your turn tomme :)

[tomme2]

Great game tapstree!
Thanks for letting me play.
Ok, I picked another non-LotR quote, and my clue is that this was inspired by my recent lurking in a thread that is currently residing on page 4.
Further clues will follow if that one is too vague or my quote proves to be too obscure.
:)

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ / _ _ _ /
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ / _ _ / _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ /
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

[Yaksha]

I'll get the ball rolling with a T :)

[tomme2]

A 't' you say?
Fine choice! You may have four of them but please try not to spoil your dinner. ;)

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ / t _ _ /
_ _ _ _ t _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ _ t _ _ / _ _/ t _ _ /
_ _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

[tapstree]

:rolleyes:... Well i suppose that hint will work for your stalkers, tomme. For the rest of us, however, we'll need something a little more, er, substantial.

i call G for Goodie!!! tomme's here!!! :D

[Loralíenasa]

May I have an 's' please?

Hey tap! Good to see you! :D

[tomme2]

Ok, 'g' and 's' it is. :)

_ _ g _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ / t _ _ /
_ _ _ _ t _ _ _ s / s _ _ _ _ _ t _ _ / _ _/ t _ _ /
s _ _ _ / _ _ _ g _ _ g _

and you want a substantial clue? Let me see. I thought the last clue would have just about given it away entirely. Ummmmm...how about this? The person who said this was known by three names. Does that help?

[Hellga]

A for Anna :p

[Saeros]

N for the other part of Anna...

[Xyla]

I'd like an M for MAN Neith's hot :p

[Lord Schaudt]

I'll have and H for Hows it going>?

[lyric]

A "Y" please ;)

[Ardwinna]

Hey, tomme!! :D I haven't seen you around for aaages!!

May I please have an E for echidna?

:D

Yes, and we're having a fine little party here too, aren't we, lyric :D;)

Waves to Lorien:):) How's the publisher doing? :)

There's a great mix of funness here! Yippee! i just wanna HUG you all! :kiss:

[elf-friend]

[tomme2]

OK...here you go, 'a' for Anna, 'n' for the other part of Anna, 'm' for MAN Neith's hot, 'h' for how's it going and a 'y' please (how very polite you are lyric :) ), 'e' for echidna (and a big wave to Ardwinna who is one of my favorite people in the whole world :notworthy ), and finally a 'p' for captain Planet. It's practically spelled out for you right now!
Surely someone knows this quote?!?!?!? Am I that much of a geek?

[Xyla]

ummm.. this is a guess...
England and America are two countries separated by the same language?

[tomme2]

*ding**ding**ding**ding**ding**ding**ding*
Yes, that's RIGHT Xyla!
This classic phrase was uttered by no less than George Bernard Shaw, and I was inspired to use it by reading the 'international translations' thread.
You win a some expenses paid trip for one to the Bagelfest in Charleston Illinois where you'll stay at the beautiful Lincolnland motel (weekly rates available-no pets, smoking or cooking in your room) and enjoy two nights out with a reduced cover charge at Ted's Warehouse, home of head bangin' rock 'n' roll in the downstate area for more than two decades!
Oh, and it's your turn. ;)

[Xyla]

why THANKYOU!!!

OK... my Palantir of Fortune... just for you guys...

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _/ _ _ _ _ _/ _ _ _/ _ _ _ - _ _ _ _ _/ _ _ _ _ , _ _ _ _ _/ _ _/ _ _/ _ _ _ _ _/ _ _ _/ _ _ _ _ _/ _ _/ _ _/ _ _ _ _...

Woowoo!! :clap: Go, Xyla, GO!

Oi! THat was fast :D.

Um... 'D' please.

[tomme2]

Since I just happen to be still hanging around I'll request an 'o' for :eek:

[TPFKAN]

Oh, new game! Can I have an N, Xyla?

[Xyla]

OK, with an N and an O we get...

[Hellga]

Let's have an "E" too, please :D

[tapstree]

Xyla, how's about a hint.... that's worthy of Mordor?

:kiss:

[Lord Schaudt]

Can we get and R?

[Yaksha]

How about an H? For Xyla is Hot :D

BTW, what is the category if you please :)

[Xyla]

[Ardwinna]

Ummm...

May I please have a K for krunchy?

:p

[Xyla]

No K's sorry :(

[BloodFire]

I'm gonna guess 'T'.

[Xyla]

Tap I totally didn't see your "D" guess from before.. but there are no D's anyway, but just letting you know I didn't ignore you!

OK.. T..nice choice...

N,O,E,R,H,D,T

_ H R _ _ T _ _ _/ _ H E R E/ T H E/ _ _ _ - T R E E _/ _ R O _ , T H E R E/ _ _/ N O/ _ R O _ T/ _ N _/ T H E R E/ _ _/ N O/ _ N O _...

[Ardwinna]

Ooh, I know it!

It is...

Christmas where the gum-trees grow, there is no frost and there is no snow...

:D

[Xyla]

YAY!!! WHOO!!!! Give the girl a PRIZE Jeff!!!

THANKS XYLA.. Well Ardwinna, today you can choose between this fine china replica of Sean Beans head, or a years supply of chicken feed...!!!

Choose wisely!!

[tapstree]

:clap: :beer: :clap: Hurrah for Ardwinna!! LOL, Xyla :D.
What the hell song is that from???? :confused:

[Ardwinna]

LOL!!

Tough decision, Xy... hmmmm... ummm... I'll take the chic... I mean, the replica :D

My chookies can starve ;)

Tap, that's from an Australian Xmas carol... I wouldn't know the rest of it though... just like I don't know all of the national anthem, either :o

:D

EDIT: OK, I thought of a puzzle more quickly than I thought I would...

It's a line from a movie...

[lady_finduilas]

[Delphine]

Rats, I know it (I think), but I have to go to class! :(

I'll have an F for Freddy, anyway :)

[Ardwinna]

You could have taken a guess at it, Delphine!!

Yes, there is an F


_ _ _ _ / _ A _ / _ A _ _ / O _ R / _ _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ ' _ _ / N _ _ _ R /
_ A _ _ / O _ R / F R _ _ _ O _ !

[Delphine]

OK, I will (two hours later :))
"They can take our lives, but they'll never take our freedom!" (cue beating of shields and various body parts ;) )

[Ardwinna]

Woohoo!! You got it!! :clap: :D

And your prize... close your eyes and open them when I tell you to :p

Your prize, you lucky gal, is a big, hairy Scotsman... ROWWRRRR!!!

You can open your eyes now...

http://www.darkstar-sifi.co.uk/images/large_figures/fat.jpg

He's dead sexy!! :D

Actually, that was really mean :o

Here's an alternate prize if you don't like the first option...

http://lallybroch.com/LOL/guests/liam.jpg

:swoon:

Go on and post a new puzzle, Delph!! :clap:

[Delphine]

Well, as much as that first piccie really does it for me, I'm going to have to go for option B. Gotta love that heroic pose
Here we go, famous quote:

"_ _ _ _ _/_ _ _ _ _ _/_ _ _/_ _ _ _ _/_/_ _ _/_ _ _ _ _"

Hope I got that right.

Guess away, will be back in about 14 hours

[Saeros]

Speak softly and carry a big stick

[Massive_Attack]

Uh, if it's not that quote, I'll take an S ;) (good effort, Saeros!)

[Delphine]

OK, so I lied about the 14 hours.

Delphine crosses her arms and looks sideways at Saeros. Suspiciously.

What the...? Either that was really easy, or Saeros watches too much Wheel of Fortune :p Or possibly Saeros is just really intelligent :)

Either way, your go Saeros :)

[Théodwyn]

Somebody give the man a medal! :clap:

[tapstree]

Woo! :eek: We need to keep a sharp eye on that man!! Er... Saeros, i mean. Where's the new puzzle, Sae??

Welcome to the game, lady finduilas! :clap:

:D

[Saeros]

Thanks. Just dumb luck I'm afraid... Had that quote in my head somewhere, near the top.

_ _ / _ _ _ / _ _ _ / _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ / _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ _.

[Yaksha]

Saeros, can you put spaces between the letters and / between the words? Thanks :)

I'll start with an S

[Hellga]

I think I will request E this time around :)

[Saeros]

_ e / _ _ e / _ _ _ / _ _ e / _ _ _ _ _ _ s / _ _ _ / s _ _ / e _ _ _ /
e _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ e /
_ _ _ _ _ e.


Yeah thanks... I have some trouble getting it readable! :D

[tomme2]

May I have a 'w' please?

[Saeros]

W e / _ _ e / _ _ w / _ _ e / _ _ _ _ _ _ s / w _ _ / s _ _ / e _ _ _ /
e _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ e /

[tapstree]

'N', please? And a hint?

[Saeros]

W e / _ _ e / n _ w / _ _ e / _ n _ _ _ _ s / w _ _ / s _ _ / e _ _ _ /
e _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ n _ / _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ n _ / _ _ _ _ _ e /
_ _ _ _ _ e.


Use a herring.

[Massive_Attack]

Alright - I used a herring... but it didn't seem to help....:confused:

I'll have an 'R' for 'Are we going to get an easier hint than that?'

[Saeros]

W e / _ r e / n _ w / _ _ e / _ n _ _ _ _ s / w _ _ / s _ _ / e _ _ _ /
e _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ n _ / _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ n _ / _ _ _ _ _ e /
_ _ _ _ _ e.


Well... think of Aram. Aram's title. That is no more. :D

[Ardwinna]

Ha ha!!! :LOL:

I know it... but I've already solved two, so I'll leave it for someone else to have a go :)

The herring hint makes it really easy ;)

Saeros, may I please have a K for Kevin?

:D

[BloodFire]

I've got the first part... Can I post it and let some one else solve the rest of it?

[Ardwinna]

Actually, the second part isn't really fair, Saeros :trout:

You know why...

:D

[Massive_Attack]

Herring? Aram's title? I have to say, I've never seen any Monty Python before...


Can I have a Z for Zoop? :p

[Kristin]

Yeah, I'm thinking I have no idea how to spell the latter part of that quote! :confused: :rolleyes:

(My first time in this thread, BTW.)

I'll just request H.

[Ardwinna]

I know how to spell it, but I don't think many others do... besides, there are a couple of words missing... according to my definitive source, anyway :p

Welcome, Kristin! :D

[tapstree]

Yippee, Kristin's here!

:clap:






:D

BF - post anything you've solved; but that only gives a leg up for someone else to climb over you to solve the rest :p.

[Lord Schaudt]

We are now the Knights Who Say 'Ecky- ecky- ecky- ecky- pikang- zoop- boing- goodem- zoo- owli- zhiv'

according to the Monty Python scirpt


come one people "use a herring" all loyal fans would immediatly think of:

"Knight: YOu must Cut down th talest tree in the forest with a, Herring!!!"
"
assorted Ni's on the background
"

[tomme2]

Wow, I didn't even have a guess on that one despite being a lifetime Python fan.
Egads, I must be slipping! :confused:

[Lord Schaudt]

Well i have had some trouble thinking of one but, here it goes

(come on someone - pick 'M' !)

[Elentiriel]

I'm new to this. If no one has requested a "c", can I?

[Massive_Attack]

Hi Elentiriel! A big welcome from the second newest person at this thread! :D

You could have a C, but you'd really rather have an M ;)

[tapstree]

LOL, Massive ;). You can still solve even if you've called a letter.

Hello there, Elentiriel. Quick, Xyla's not here yet, change your request to an 'M'!

[Xyla]

AHEM.. the request stands at C

"I'm a guy,

Good day, eh?

Oh, and a new puzzzzzzzle... Let me see. *think, think, think*

Ok, this is from one of my favourite poets:

"_ _ _ _/ _ _ _ _/ _ _ _/ _ _, _ _ _/ _ _ _/ _ _ _ _/ _ _/
_ _ _/ _ _/ _ _ _/ _ _ _ _ _ _/ _ _ _/ _ _ _ _ _,

_ _ _ _/ _ _ _/ _ _ _ _ _/ _ _ _ _ _!"

[BloodFire]

You're off by one word, tap! Soooooooooo close! :D ;)

[tapstree]

D'oh!! :o

How's this, BF?

I'm a man,
but I can change
If I have to.
I guess.

[BloodFire]

Yup! That's it! Go forth and quote, tap!

[tapstree]

Thanks BF :clap:



:D


Again...... this is from one of my favourite poets:

"_ _ _ _/ _ _ _ _/ _ _ _/ _ _, _ _ _/ _ _ _/ _ _ _ _/ _ _/
_ _ _/ _ _/ _ _ _/ _ _ _ _ _ _/ _ _ _/ _ _ _ _ _,

[BloodFire]

P for Purple!

[Xyla]

You terrible people :p My lyrics were from "If I can't love her" from the Broadway version of Beauty and the BEast... absolutely beautiful song, you hear it and you cry.. thats the way it works :)

On that note a T for Terrific thanks

[Spectro]

Great guess tapstree

Gima an A for Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

[Hellga]

"O", please. I am sticking with the vowels :)

[pmcatnip]

Gimme an E!

[tapstree]

P-taoe. Looks like it needs to be spit out.

"T_e_/ _ _ _ _/ _ot/ _o, _ _t/ _et/ t_e_/ _o

[mallorniphredil]

Um, I'm sort of new at this....can I have an I?

[Yaksha]

How about an R?

Can I make a suggestion? If a letter is guesed and there are none in the sentance, place the letter below the puzzle in an "not used bin" or something, that way we don't get people guessing the same letter twice if it's not in the puzzle :)

[BloodFire]

Z for Zipper!

[Massive_Attack]

May I please have an N for nothing in particular...

[Lord Schaudt]

H!!@! we wanttsssss and H my Preciosussss

[Elentiriel]

A "W" please.

[tapstree]

Hello mallorn! Yakky - great suggestion! :)

I, R, Z, N, H, W... wonder if any of those will go into the 'not used bin'...


"Then/ _i_h/ not/ _o, _ _t/ _et/ the_/ _o
An_/ _e/ _o_/ _ _ithe/ an_/ _onn_
_on_ ertin_/ a_ _/ _o_r/ _o_n_ _/ o_/ woe

Not used: Z. :(

Ok, if that doesn't give it away, then i dunno! :D...

[lyric]

Can I have a "Y" please. I remember you old sig ;)

[tapstree]

Then solve, you silly spicy brains ;):D.

"Then/ _i_h/ not/ _o, _ _t/ _et/ the_/ _o
An_/ _e/ yo_/ _ _ithe/ an_/ _onny
_on_ ertin_/ a_ _/ yo_r/ _o_n_ _/ o_/ woe

:clap:





:D

[lyric]

But it isn't on your web site anymore and I had to resort to Google :o

Then/ sigh/ not/ so, but/let/ them/ go
And/ be/ you/ blithe/ and/ bonny
Converting/ all/ your/ sounds/ of/ woe
Into/ hey/ nonny/ nonny!"


did I win :eek:

[tapstree]

:clap::clap::clap:




:D


Yay lyric! Go ahead and set the next puzzle! :)

BUT... on the page before this, i threw out the question of whether google should be a welcome participant here, and one person (Yaksha) said no. Should we vote? :confused:

[Massive_Attack]

Sounds about right to me, Lyric! From 12th Night? Whatever the name of the play, I know I studied it in English at high school :)

I'd vote for No Google Use (not that we can stop people from using it....)

[lyric]

:eek: No Google :eek:

It is fine with me :) Yes I knew there was a downside to winning :p I will set up the puzzle either tonight or tomorrow morning. Right how I am so stuffed with dinner, I am glazed over ;)

[lyric]

double post :eek:

[pmcatnip]

:confused:

[lyric]

just one word off Tap :)

[tomme2]

:confused:

[lyric]

hello Dad :)

[MizMolly]

I think I know

"you are old father William" the young man said.

[lyric]

:clap: :clap: :clap: You got it MizMolly :)

Lewis Carroll Alice's Adventures In Wonderland

You are old, Father William, the young man said,
And your hair has become very white;
And yet you incessantly stand on your head –
Do you think, at your age, it is right?

A very funny poem :)

[tapstree]

Way to go, Mizmolly! Go on... :clap:... you can set the next puzzle :).

[Kristin]

I want a new puzzle! (I have yet to solve one.)

Maybe Tapstree should do the next one if MizMolly doesn't come back soon...

[MizMolly]

Sorry to make you wait for a new puzzle!!:notworthy :notworthy forgive me!


here it is, its from a movie:

_ _ _/ _ _ _/ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _/ _ _ _ _/ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _/ _ _ _ _ _ _ _?

[Evenstar_18]

If I'm right I really can't do the next one so somebody else can. Everyone would be mad at me becaust it would take me way to long to update:rolleyes:

~Evenstar

[MizMolly]

YAY!!! Tell her what she's won Bob.


"Evenstar_18, you've won a limited edition Ralph the Wonder Llama plushie, and an autographed copy of the movie from witch, er, which I got this quote, MONTY PYTHON AND THE HOLY GRAIL!!!"

You may also pass your turn to make up a message along to someone else if you like.

[tapstree]

Woo! Evenstar! :clap:

First person to get here sets the next puzzle! :)

[Kristin]

Me! :D

It's from a movie:


" _ _ ' _ / _ / _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ , / _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ / _ _ / _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ . "

[BloodFire]

Y for "Yay, it's Kristin"!
:)

[Kristin]

" _ _ ' _ / _ / _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ , / _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ / _ _ _ Y / _ _ _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ / _ _ / _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ . "

I'm sure you've almost got it by now. ;)

[Spectro]

I'd like an 'S'

[tapstree]

What about 'M's', Kristin?

[Kristin]

" _ _ ' S / _ / _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ , / _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ / M _ _ Y / _ _ _ _ _ S / _ _ _ / _ _ / _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ . "

:D

[horsey]

[lyric]

[Hellga]

"A", the best letter in the whole alphabet (and grade system :))

[Kristin]

" _ T ' S / A / _ _ _ / T H _ _ _ , / _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ / M A _ Y / _ A _ _ _ S /

Almost there! :) And maybe somebody can guess by this point.

[MizMolly]

D please... I can't get it

[tapstree]

Or maybe a hint - the genre of movie or summat?

[Kristin]

" I T ' S / A / _ E _ / T H I _ _ , / _ I _ E / _ _ _ / M A _ Y / _ A _ I E S /
_ I T / I _ / T H E / T I R E . "

There is no D


Hint: It's from the same movie as my "location"

[Hellga]

How about an "N"?

[Kristin]

" I T ' S / A / _ E N / T H I N _ , / _ I _ E / H _ _ / M A N Y / _ A _ I E S /
_ I T / I N / T H E / T I R E . "

Not used:
D

Just realized I forgot an H. :o It's added in now.

Let me know if another hint is needed....

:)

[Hellga]

It's a Zen thing, like how many babies fit in a tire

Am I right?

[Kristin]

You are right! :D (Although I'm not certain whether "a tire" or "the tire" is correct, it really doesn't matter.)

It's from Waiting for Guffman.

[tapstree]

Hooray for Hellga! :clap: and Kristin! :clap:




:D

[Hellga]

It's so hard to think of a good phrase :rolleyes:

_ _ _ / _ / _ _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ / _ _ / _ _ _ _, / _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ / _ _ / _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ / _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ _!

[pmcatnip]

I'd like an E. Where's the phrase from?

[Hellga]

One very good book, which has been made into a movie :)

_ _ _ / _ / _ _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ / _ E / _ _ _ _, / _ _ _ / _ E _ _ _ _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ / _ E _ _ _ _ _ E / _ _ / _ _ E / _ _ _ _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ / _ _ E / _ _ _ _ _!

[tomme2]

How about a b, b, b, (darn this stuttering) a 'B' please?

[lyric]

Can I have a "T" as in toffee please:)

[tapstree]

Tomme, how did you know to ask for exactly 4 "B"? You get as many as you have asked for :D

Hellga hugs Taps :hug:

Life isn't really as bad as it might seem to be. I have been out of shape and in mild depression for the last week because of the events in Moscow and my own trouble with school (I am a perfectionist freak :(). Thank god I have my job, which I love, I spent all Saturday at work and it really helped to boost my mood :) :hug:

[lyric]

May I have an "R" please for Mother Russia :hug:

[Hellga]

Lyric, while I am very tempted to grant your request, either I have doubles running in my eyes or you have posted here less than an hour ago :) :hug:

[tapstree]

Thanks Hellga :hug:. i'll change my silly post.

In fact, there are 4 "L"s :)

[Ardwinna]

I know it, but I'll leave it for someone else to solve.

May I please have an N for 'not on your Nelly', Hellga?

:p

[Hellga]

PA, I don't know, but why not?

[Princess Aurora]

"And I shall not be dark, but beautiful and terrible as the morning and the night!"

:)

From a movie....


_ ' _ _ / _ _ _ _ / _ / _ _ _ / _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ _ / _ _ / _ _ / _ _ _ _ , / _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ _ _ !

[Hellga]

Right you are, PA. It was in my first sig here a year ago :)

Can I have an "A" please?

[pmcatnip]

"G" please. And for future reference, are we allowed to solve some of the words even if we don't know the whole phrase?

[tapstree]

eLLeLLeLLeLLeLL. L, please :).

pm - solve all you like; but you're just giving other ppl a leg up if you solve random words ;).

[lyric]

"S" please for spicy brains :D

[Princess Aurora]

A's, G's and L's coming up! :D



_ ' _ _ / S _ _ _ / A / L _ _ / _ _ / _ _ _ _ G S / _ _ / _ _ / L _ _ _ , / _ _ _ / _ _ A _ / _ A S / A _ _ S _ _ _ !

EDIT: And S's ;)

[BloodFire]

P for Proud! I certainly didn't raise a fool! ;) :D

[tapstree]

Hmmmmmm... that didn't go exactly according to plan there....

Plan B: More hints! :notworthy

[Princess Aurora]

Sorry Mama, no Ps!

A hint? Hmm... it's a Comedy... one of my favorites. :)

[Elfdaughter]

That's a toughie! (it better not be in Quenya!) Can I have an O please Bob?

[tapstree]

'R' with a side of hint, please. Oops, i missed your first hint... now another please :D.

[Princess Aurora]

3 Os, no Rs.

Hint #2 for Miss Tap: It's a movie with SNL characters in it. :D



_ ' _ _ / S _ _ _ / A / L O _ / O _ / _ _ _ _ G S / _ _ / _ _ / L _ _ _ , / _ _ _ / _ _ A _ / _ A S / A _ _ S O _ _ !

[Princess Aurora]

TTTTTTTTTTTT it is!


_ ' _ _ / S _ _ _ / A / L O T / O _ / T _ _ _ G S / _ _ / _ _ / L _ _ _ , / _ _ T / T _ A T / _ A S / A _ _ S O _ _ !

[tomme2]

I think it says "I've seen alot of things in my life, but that was awesome"
although I have no idea where the quote came from. :confused:

[Princess Aurora]

Why certainly, tomme. ;)


_ ' _ _ / S _ _ _ / A / L O T / O _ / T _ _ _ G S / _ _ / _ _ / L _ _ _ , / _ _ T / T _ A T / W A S / A W _ S O _ _ !

[tomme2]

ooops, you are too quick for me. Should I delete my post there and go back to the letter request?

[Princess Aurora]

Nope, you're right tomme. :)

It's from "Tommy Boy"..

"I've seen a lot of things in my life, but that was AWESOME!" :D

[tomme2]

Does that mean I'm a wiener?
:)
Tommy Boy huh? Actually I've never had the uh...'pleasure' of catching that little cinematic gem :rolleyes: so I guess it was just plain luck.

I guess I have to come up with a quote now and I'll try not to do something as obscure as my last one. hmmmm.....

[tomme2]

_ _ _, / _ _ _ / _ _ _ ' _ / _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ / _ _ ' _ / _ _ _ _ / _ _ / _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ / _ / _ _ _ _ _ ! / ... _ _ _ _ , / _ _ _ _ _ , / _ _ _ / _ _.

Ok, here you go. It's from a relatively recent film that I feel sure a fair majority have seen.
:cool:

[MizMolly]

Can I have an A?

[tomme2]

_ _ _, / _ _ _ / _ _ _ ' _ / _ _ _ _ / _ _ a _ / _ _ ' _ / _ _ _ _ / _ _ / _ _ /
_ _ _ a _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ / a / _ _ _ a _ ! / ... _ _ _ _ , / _ a _ _ _ , / _ _ _ / _ _.

An excellent choice. You may have five of them in fact.

[tapstree]

'N' please!! :D And more hints!

[Princess Aurora]

tomme, don't you roll your eyes at Tommy Boy! It should've won Best Picture. :p :D

And give me an R for "ARRRRRRRRRRRRR!" ;)

[Hellga]

Well, both my favorite letters have been named already, so why don't I get an "H". Please :D

[Kristin]

I'd like a G please. :)

[tomme2]

OK, 'n' and 'r', 'h' and 'g' to follow:

H _ _, / _ _ _ / _ _ n ' _ / _ n _ _ / _ h a _ / _ _ ' _ / _ _ _ _ / _ _ / _ _ / _ r _ a _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ / a / _ r _ a _ ! / ... _ _ _ _ , / _ a _ _ _ , / _ _ _ / _ _.

No 'g'

As to more hints...hmmm...the character who speaks these lines has a voice that everyone would recognize, but a face that was new in this movie.

And PA, I'm sorry that I rolled my eyes at your movie. I didn't see it and can only say that I got my opinion from the previews that I saw, but that's no excuse for me to make fun of it since I don't really know, and so I apologize.

[Princess Aurora]

Awww, tomme don't worry, I wasn't serious. :)

[pmcatnip]

T please, as in tomme2. :)

[citron]

Geez, everytime I come to check on this thread the puzzle is already solved. :rolleyes:

Hellga! If you hadn't asked for an 'H' there would be a cool word spelled NRG. Get it? N-R-G?... Energy... :p

Can I have an 'M' please?

[tomme2]

A 't' and an 'm' coming up...

H _ _, / _ _ _ / _ _ n ' t / _ n _ _ / _ h a t / _ t ' _ / _ _ _ _ / t _ / _ _ / t r _ a t _ _ / _ _ _ _ / a / _ r _ a _ ! / ... _ _ _ _ , / m a _ _ _ , / _ _ _ / _ _.

Is no one ready to fill in the blanks yet? *taunt* *taunt* :p

[tapstree]

Yippee skippee it's a new day :hug:.

'E' or 'O'... hmmm. i'll take some 'O's' please. Oreos. Double stuff, with milk to soak them in :).

[tomme2]

:confused: Hey, you don't know what it's like to be treated like a bread....?

More hints! :)

EDIT: Freak! FREAK!!!

More hints!! :D

[tomme2]

More hints?
ummmm...big budget movie filled with major stars that you never actually get to see.
A goofy comedy that is also a very sweet love story.
Get it now?

[pmcatnip]

Hey, you don't know what it's like to be treated like a freak!...Well, maybe, you do.

[tomme2]

*ding**ding**ding**ding**ding**ding**ding**ding**d ing**ding**ding**ding*

pmcatnip....you are the WINNER!
That's right, your winning answer of: "Hey, you don't know what it's like to be treated like a freak!...Well, maybe, you do." is a line from the movie Shrek! I don't remember whether Shrek says this to the donkey or vice versa, but either way you guessed it and you are todays big winner!
As todays winner you receive the right to....
wait for it....
make up the next puzzle!!
Oh you lucky, lucky thing!
:notworthy

[pmcatnip]

Yay! :D
I have too many good lines to pick from! I'll go with the longest one. :p This also comes from a relatively new movie.

There is nothing more toxic or deadly than a human child. A single touch could kill you!

?

(I love that movie!)

[pmcatnip]

Ding, ding! Kristin got it! From the wonderful movie "Monsters Inc." You've just won a free trip to Pixar's studio, an exclusive interview with the stars, and...huh? What do you mean I can't say that? Okay, okay. You've just won the right to the next puzzle! Have fun. ;)

[Kristin]

I was going to use a Monsters Inc. quote, but I won't now. :)

_ _ _ / _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ , / " _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ / _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ /
_ _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ /

It's a comedy (not new). :)

[Massive_Attack]

Ok then, Kristin - how about an 'I' for 'I'm never here in time to figure out the answers!'

[Gilrandir]

[pmcatnip]

And God said, "Let there be doors that open when they open and close when they close!" ? Although what movie that is from, I have no idea! :o

[Kristin]

You are right! :)

You win .... some advice: Go rent Noises Off (the movie that quote is from). :D And, of course, rights to the next puzzle.

[pmcatnip]

[Ardwinna]

Aaarggh!! I can't stop myself... I have to solve it!! :p

Who's on first, what's on second, I-don't-know's on third.

OK, I'll run a puzzle. This one is a line from a song...

[vandevere]

"T" please?

Vandevere

[Ardwinna]

Sorry, vandevere, there is no T

[lyric]

May I have a "Y" please :)

[Ardwinna]

Y, of course! One Y coming right up! :D

:rotfl: not quite the result I was hoping for :rotfl:

[tapstree]

Ardwinna: :clap::hug::clap:

Um, 'R', please?

[Ardwinna]

Taps!! :hug: :D

But I'm sorry, there is no R...

I'm wondering if I have made this too difficult :confused:

Nah, I'll let you all squirm a bit before I give any hints ;)

:p

[vandevere]

Sorry about that. My mind isn't what it should be. I've been sick all weekend... Of course, I NEVER get sick on a weekday... :mad:

Just like when I was a kid in school. Always sick on Friday evening and completely recovered by Sunday night.

I ask you, is that fair?

Vandevere

[Gilrandir]

Awww... {{{Vandevere}}}

An "A" for "Awww" please :D

[Elfdaughter]

Gil! I was going to have that one!:mad: Oh well, i'll have an E for erm....:trout: :p

[Massive_Attack]

In case you were wondering why vandevere's last post doesn't appear to make any sense: I had written a post before it saying "I think there's a rule about only asking for one letter per day... just bringing this up because you posted two in 3 minutes ;) ", but then deleted the post because I realised that I had just posted two on the same day in that very post! :o :p

Can I please have an S for 'Sorry vandevere!'

[tapstree]

LOL, Massive :trout:. i love dining on my feet - i've come to enjoy them with a bit of dijon ketchup. Makes the experience so much more enjoyable :rolleyes: ;). Er, that'd be because it happens SO BLOODY OFTEN!!!!!
And Vandevere, i suppose you're all ready to face the day healthy and well? ;) :hug:

So then, is it really a new day? i'll try for AI YAI YAI.... 'I' please! :) (There's GOT to be an 'I' in there Ardwinna!!!!!!!! :eek: :p)

[tomme2]

How about a 'b' ?

[Hellga]

Let's call an "O" for "NOOOOOOO!" :D

[vandevere]

Oddly enough, the Fates were with me...In a backhanded sort of way... I'm still sick :D

Although just WHY I'm grinning about it might sound a little strange to someone who knew my past history...

I AM feeling just a little better however...I hope-tomorrow being Voting Day and all, that the weather gives me a break...

Vandevere

[Ardwinna]

Aw, Vandevere! Even though you're still feeling sick, good to see you're feeling a little better... now THAT doesn't look like it makes sense :p

MA... :trout: It was a new puzzle!!! :rolleyes: :p

Yes, taps, there is an eye... three in fact! Eep, it's a monster! :D

Sorry, I'm feeling very silly this morning :p


A / _ O _ A _ / _ E E _ S / A / _ A _ / _ I _ E / A / _ I S _ / _ E E _ S / A /

Come on, it's eeeasy!! :clap:

[tapstree]

"A woman keeps a man like a lisp keeps a bicycle." No, that's not right :trout:

[Ardwinna]

:rotfl:

Close, but no cigar :LOL:

[Gilrandir]

I know! I know!

"A woman needs a man like a fish needs a bicycle"!

I'll be back with a quote... as soon as I think of one >_<

[Ardwinna]

Yay, Gilrandir!!! :clap: :D :clap:

And your prize...

http://www.aerofast.com/aerofast/graphics/2500_lg.jpg

Cool, huh?? :D Remember what it was like when you saw one of these sitting under the Christmas tree? Awww... I've gone all nostalgic! :D

Woohoo!! I love this game!! :clap:

[Gilrandir]

Ooooooooo... shinyyyyy... ^___^

Okay, here's a quote from LOTR (the books)...

Runs out to play with her new shiny bike :D

[tapstree]

Woowoo, Gil! :clap: i never got one of those under the Christmas tree!

[Gilrandir]

Erm... I can't remember if it's TTT or ROTK... :o (*Mental note* REREAD THE BOOKS!)

Vandevere* still feeling a tad smoggy in the head. SNORK!!*

[Ardwinna]

Ooh, can I have an S for salty, please??

[Gilrandir]

No Ts or Ss, sorry...

[Elfdaughter]

[Massive_Attack]

Gee, no S's or T's... is there a G?

[Fimbrethil]

I'd like a 'K' for :kiss: please. :D

[mallorniphredil]

An I for 'I don't know what the heck this is', please! :)

[tapstree]

:eek:'E'Eeeeeeeeee, please!! What the heck is this, Gil?? :confused: (More hints! :D)

[Gilrandir]

Hmm... O, G, K, I, E...

_ egone / _ o _ _ / _ _ i _ _ e _ _ aik, / _ o _ _ / o _ / _ a _ _ ion!

Lessee... this will almost definitely give away the answer...

"Sister-daughter"

[lyric]

Is it

Begone foul dwimmerlaik, lord of carrion?

what a word dimmerlaik :) Spoken by that shy blossom Eowyn :p

[Gilrandir]

*Applause* Yep, it is! Shy blossom? Eowyn? *Mind boggles*

And for a prize... you get... you get... uhhh...

You get to post up the next puzzle. My prize-giving brain cells seem to have disappeared into the Roadkill pot... And it doesn't help that it's waaaay past midnight here :rolleyes:

Under the mountain dark and tall

OK, let me think of a new one for you. Also a poem by Tolkien.

[tapstree]

Wow! Cash in, lyric :D

[Kristin]

I would like a T. :)

[tomme2]

I'm going to be all daring and wacky and ask for a 'q'.
:eek:

[Massive_Attack]

Can I have an O for awesome.... ah, that joke doesn't work quite as well in print ;) :p

[Hellga]

T O / _ _ _ / B E _ _ _' _ / _ _ _ _ E / _ E _ _ / _ T _ _ _ / T _ _ _ _/,

Not used: Q

[MizMolly]

Can I have an "s" ?

[Hellga]

I just realized what a stupid thing I have done :rolleyes: I edited it, but still, I can't believe I could be such a moron.

T O / _ _ S / B E _ _ _' S / S _ _ _ E / _ E _ S / S T _ _ _ / T _ _ _ _/,

[Ardwinna]

Ardwinna stifles a twitch and asks for a G...

May I please have a G for good golly, I have no idea what this puzzle could be because I am one of those who skips all the poetry bits in LOTR :eek: :o

:p

[Hellga]

Ardwinna, don't worry. This isn't a LotR poem :devil: It's a piece of a poem.

T O / H _ S / B E _ _ _' S / S _ _ _ E / G E _ S / S T _ _ _ / T H _ _ _/,

[Yaksha]

Tricksy Hellga, it's from the Adventures of Tom Bombadil ...

The Hoard

To his belly's slime gems stuck thick,
silver and gold he would snuff and lick:
he knew the place of the least ring
beneath the shadow of his black wing.

OK ... topic is Lord of the Rings

_ _ _ / _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ / _ _ _ _
_ _ / _ _ _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ _ _ / _ _ _

Good luck :)

[Massive_Attack]

Good stuff, Yaksha!

Can I start things off with an 'I' or two?

[tapstree]

Oooooh, nice one Hellga! :clap: Go Yakky! :notworthy

Hm, what about a 'K', Yak? :)

[Ardwinna]

Ah, Hellga... well, that's OK then, isn't it?? ;) :p

Could I please have an L for lazy, Yakky??

'Cause that's what I'm being today... I should be working right now :eek: :p

[Hellga]

Yaksha, why did I expect you to get it? :notworthy Why didn't you go and answer Finrun's question instead? ;) :hug:

How about an "A"? (which I really really need on Organic Chem exam Friday) :)

[Yaksha]

I K L and A coming up :)

_ _ _ / I _ _ _ / _ A _ _K _ _ _ _ / _ _ L L / _ I _ / _ _ A _

I've actually neglected this thread for a while ... been busy with a few other things, but just couldn't resist Hellga :p

[Elentiriel]

Any chance of an E?

[mallorniphredil]

Can I have an H please? (Again!)

[Gilrandir]

"U" please!

[Massive_Attack]

[lyric]

May I have a T please :)

[Hellga]

And into darkness fell his star
In Mordor where the shadows are

The verse of Gil-Galad. Am I right? :D

Not quite.

For into darkness fell his star
In Mordor where the shadows are.

Let me go think of the next riddle. Can I use something from Organic Chem textbook? :devil: ;)

[Yaksha]

Correct of course Hellga :)

[Hellga]

You did not answer whether I may use the Organic Chem textbook as the source. Anyway, I decided that would be by far too cruel :)

Here is another Tolkien poem for you

Hmm, I'll start things off with a T :)

[Yaksha]

Nice job Elfdaughter :)

How about a R

[Massive_Attack]

Good on ya, Elfdaughter!

May I have some E's, please?

[vandevere]

T please? I'm still sick. But I'm feeling better than I did last night. I got only a little sleep because of the ever-present cough. Because of that all-night cough session, I don't rerally have a voice today. I was so hoarse today that some people might've been tempted to put a bridle and saddle on me...

Vandevere

[Hellga]

What do you win? A Hellga swoon :swoon:. Very few people can boast they got it :D :hug:

Can I have an "A" please? :D

Hellga hugs vandevere Unfortunately, common cold is a nightmarish disease, which last for 7 to 10 days and has no cure. All medication only relieve [some] symptoms but none cures it :(

Ok, now everyone is going to get it - easily!:trout:

[Massive_Attack]

Many that live deserve death. And many that die deserve life. Can you give it to them? Then do not be too hasty to deal out death and judgement.

Is that what you were after? I think that's more or less the same as the book (one or two words are different... 'some that die deserve life' 'do not be too eager...')

[Elfdaughter]

Well, that's what it said in my book. Well done! You have won ........ drum roll please........A trouting!:trout: ;) :hug: you know I don't mean it...:devil: (he he!)

[Massive_Attack]

A trouting! Just what I've always wanted! :p :) Ahh, it feels good to win this game for the first time :cool: ;)

Anyway, here's my new quiz.

[tapstree]

Gentlemen, you can't fight in here! This is the Bar Room!

Am I right? :confused:

[Ardwinna]

Well, I've left it a day and I haven't had any confirmation of my success or failure, so I'll post a puzzle anyway :p

Ummm...

OK, got one! It's a line from a film.

Are there any C's?

[Hellga]

But no fights in Russian air space :p

Ardwinna, may I have an "O"? :hug:

[Ardwinna]

Hmm, taps, it's gotta be a bit early for hints ;) :p, but one of the actors in this film was also in a film from which a quote for a previous puzzle here was taken.

Crikey! I'm tired and keep mistyping puzzle as 'pizzle' :o :D

[Ardwinna]

Aw, man! I'm S-L-O-W this morning :o

Hey, Delph, that's a way cool prize :cool: Open tab on the bar, you say... hmmmm... :LOL:

Cockney?? :confused: Quick, everyone, what other actor in a movie already quoted had something to do with Cockney???

Riiiiiight, 'winna. Dead give-away. :rolleyes:

;)

Besides, anything beyond half an hour ago is ancient history for me. Ergo, forgotten :rolleyes: :p

[Ardwinna]

Well, taps, I thought that it would be an indication of the underbelly of London :D

You don't expect me to give an easy hint, do you??? ;) :p

"Never underestimate the predictability of stupidity"?

[Ardwinna]

Yay, taps!! :clap: You got it!! :D

And your prize…

http://www.sonypictures.com/movies/snatch/images/rap_sheet_bullet_tooth_05.jpg

Your very own standover man :D

When something needs to be done, you can call on Bullet Tooth Tony to do the job. His reputation for being unstoppable is as legendary as the gold teeth in his mouth. Aside from being unstoppable, Tony also has a very strict code of customer satisfaction which stems from his long career in the service industry – first as a waiter in a tea-room, then as a florist’s assistant. With the exception of shooting his gun, nothing seems to make Tony happier than the smell of fresh daffodils in the morning.

:LOL:

[tapstree]

Whooppeee! :clap: And hey, he's cute! :D Pinches Tony's cheeks.
i especially like the "very strict code of customer satisfaction". Hee hee! :kiss:
Reliability is my prime requirement.

Alrighty then. Now to make you guys work for your keep :devil:. This, from one of the world's most beloved children's authors (from one of his children's books).

Hehehehehe.

[Hellga]

May I have an "A" for "another puzzle I missed" please? :hug:

[Ardwinna]

You crack me up, taps! :LOL: That's not exactly what I had in mind... but then again, even though he's a bit fearsome, he's also rugged and manly :swoon:

;)

:D

May I please have an S for silly?

Ooooo, Mallorn!!! i LOVE that Cat's Eye quote from Margie!!!!! :kiss::kiss:

[tomme2]

Well I know for SURE we're missing an 'r' so I'll (very politely of course, with plenty of 'please's' and 'thank you ma'ams'), ask for one of those.

[Hellga]

Can I have an "L" for laziness, my perpetual state? :hug:

[tapstree]

"Here/ is/ the/ re_u_ sant/ sno_ _ _u_ _er!" _rie_/ the/ B_ _, _a_in_/ it/ about. "I/ s_uo_ _ _e/ it! I/ _is_ise/ it! I/ _is_un_e/ it!..."

:hug:

[tomme2]

:confused:

[tapstree]

i should've said this before, but what about those poor little neglected letters that never get called? They're feeling really lonely! :(






:devil:

Oops, i missed your 'L', Hellga! :o

"Here/ is/ the/ re_ulsant/ sno_ _ _u_ _er!" _rie_/ the/ B_ _, _a_in_/ it/ about. "I/ s_uo_ _le/ it! I/ _is_ise/ it! I/ _is_un_e/ it!..."

Now if that doesn't give it away, you guys are hopeless!!!!

[tomme2]

<---- is hopeless

[tapstree]

Aw, c'mon! Didn't you read any books when you were a kid?!! Wake up your inner child, man!

[Ardwinna]

I know the author and I know the book, but it's been too long for me to be able to come up with the quote... I could always go over to the library and cheat... :eek: ;)

May I please have a G for giant?

:D

[Ardwinna]

Aaarrrgh!!

The library's so close, yet so far :(

I can figure it all out, bar three words...

Can I prompt others to choose certain letters?? Can I, huh, can I pleeeease???

:confused:

[tapstree]

Well, wasn't it Massive Attack who did it before? Yaksha? :LOL: Fill your boots, sweetie, do what you want :D.

[Gilrandir]

I know this!!! I know this! Except I can't find my BFG book! Don't know the second half... Noooo... *Bangs head on desk*

Just so this won't be a useless post: "c"

[mallorniphredil]

aaaaah!!!! I know this!!!! *hunts around for her book*

May I please have a W?

[Loopy Loupie]

Why does it have to be from one of the few books I haven't read, and I don't know anyone who has a copy either.

erm can I have a P (sorry Can't be bothered to go back and see if that has gone already)

[tapstree]

Well, if this doesn't spell it out, then i'm a scuba-diving hippo!

"Here/ is/ the/ repulsant/ snozzcu_ ber!" cried/ the/ BFG, wa_ing/ it/ about. "I/ s_uoggle/ it! I/ _ispise/ it! I/ dispunge/ it!..."

(:eek:!! i've been missing an important letter all this time! :o :trout: )

Would someone please find a copy of The BFG?!! :p It's time for someone else to have a pizzle up now :hug:.

[Ardwinna]

I phoned the library yesterday afternoon and their copy is out on loan :eek: And the bookstore doesn't have any in, either :p

So I'll just have a V for vermicious, if I may please, taps? :hug:

It's them dang made-up words that make this one so hard! :trout:

;)

:D

[tapstree]

:devil:

"Here is the repulsant snozzcu_ ber!" cried the BFG, waving it about. "I s_uoggle it! I _ispise it! I dispunge it!..."

No one? :confused: There are only TWO more letters you need!!!!

[Ardwinna]

Only TWO???

Okay, then...

"Here is the repulsant snozzcumber!" cried the BFG, waving it about. "I squoggle it! I mispise it! I dispunge it!..."

Howzat???

YES! YESSS!! YESSSSS!!!!!

[tapstree]

Only the best for our ladies ;). Good luck, Hellga! (Hey, am i being off-topic with that??? :rolleyes: )

i'll have an 'O'ooooooooooohhhhhhhhhhh, for 'Soloflex'. ;) :D :kiss:

[Ardwinna]

Of course you can, Hellga :) Good luck with your assignment :hug:

[tapstree]

Yay! New day! And i'm in SUCH a bad mood!!!! :mad: :rolleyes: :trout:

Any 'N's' in there, Ardwinna? And is this a LotR poem??

[tomme2]

I'd like a 'b' for "Bah! I tried out to be the Soloflex model but they turned me down. Apparently I'm TOO buff and studly or something silly like that. Imagine!"

[Kristin]

I would like a T :) (sorry can't think of anything amusing at the moment to have T stand for :o)

[Ardwinna]

An 'A' for aaaahhhhh????, please!
I can see that the Soloflex guy is still inspiring onomatapoeic requests here... lots of aaaahhhhhs, Mallorn :D

Incidentally, the Soloflex guy is a little worse for wear this morning ;) :D

A fair few esses for Loopy... hope your write-up goes well :hug:

Aww, taps :( I think I had that day yesterday :hug: Got some Ns for you... and no, it's not an LOTR poem... but I guess it could be classified as fantasy.

Ooh, tomme, is that right?? :swoon: ;) Of course I have some Bs for you!

No worries, Kristin! :) Your request has been honoured... T was a good choice!

Some letters might be off. But I think it's correct.

[Ardwinna]

Yay, Kristin!! :clap: You got it EXACTLY right!! :D

Now, I don't have any nearly nekkid men to give away as a prize, but this is nearly as good ;)

Your very own Jabberwocky!! :eek:

http://www.thealmightyguru.com/Poetry/Poems/Images/Jabberwocky.gif

I don't know about you, but I think that that has to be the coolest pet ever!! :D

You take care of him now... make sure you feed him right! He's especially partial to tinned food...

http://www.the-looking-glass.net/images/glass01.jpg

;)

And just watch him go for the postman! :eek:

:D

[vandevere]

The only thing I can think to ask is this...

"Is that Jabberwock potty-trained. I don't think ANYONE would want to have to clean up after a Jabberwock. Or a Snark..."

Vandevere

[Ardwinna]

:LOL:

Good point, vandevere!! :D

Umm, that's something that the Jabberwock and I never discussed :o

I think Kristin has her work cut out for her!! :eek:

Oh you may not think I'm pretty
But don't judge on what you see
I'll eat myself if you can find
A smarter hat than me

Hellga goes to find the next riddle while waiting for her answer to be approved

[Kristin]

Thanks for reminding me... I would have forgotten otherwise!! :D

[Hellga]

Oh, after this it will become ridiculously easy ;)

Ardwinna, my car broke down Friday night - something with brakes. I am surprised I am alive after driving 15 miles home from work. I hope they can fix it by Tuesday :)

And yes, the solution to the puzzle is now apparent :D

Some say the world will end in fire
Some say in ice
From what I've tasted of desire
I hold with those who favour fire.

Good stuff :)

:D

[tapstree]

'R' for me, please :). Wow - it must be the season of broken down cars :confused: i put nearly $800 into mine last week - just regular maintenance; but... ouch :(. There's more to come too, dammit :mad:.

:rolleyes:

'R's', right? :clap:

[Ardwinna]

My car usually has something go wrong with it around this time of year... I think it knows that it's Christmas coming up and I don't have the spare dosh :rolleyes: Lucky, though, the part I need is only $100 and I can put it in myself, so I don't have to pay for labour :)

But back to the puzzle... yes, taps, there are a fair few arrrrrrrrs :arrr:

[Hellga]

Here is your prize - I hope it will sweeten your life :)

http://www.classic-fruitcake.com/images/cake/1ba.jpg

I have been warned that my brakes can break any minute when I took my car for regular pre-winter maintenance... Every November something happens with my car... But what do you expect of a 10 years old car? At least it works, and it looks nice :)

Could I get an "I", undeservedly neglected letter? :hug:

[Massive_Attack]

All this talk about broken-down cars...

Can I have an S for 'Stupid thieves stole a wheel off my car a few days ago!' :confused: :rolleyes:

Seriously, who steals a wheel?? :rolleyes: :p

:)

[Ardwinna]

Ooh, yum! Thanks muchly, Hellga :hug: And I'm lucky that my car has excellent brakes... pity about the electrics, which is what always gives me the trouble :rolleyes: :p

Yep, there are some esses!! :D

That should be easy now! Especially since I fixed my mistake :o

[Delphine]

Maybe they didn't have a spare...

May I have an L please? :)

[Ardwinna]

Or maybe they were drunk and did it for a lark?? :LOL: I'm sorry, MA, I shouldn't be laughing as it's not really funny... not for you, anyway :)

Heh, the last line is the one that I had most trouble remembering :D

Actually, I had trouble remembering the real poem as I had once written a parody of it and could only remember the silly version!! :eek: :D

[pmcatnip]

I'd like an H for "how does everyone know all these poems?"

[Ardwinna]

How? I studied some of them for my high school leaving certificate and they just stuck with me, I guess... others I just remember and love from way back :) There were always poetry books lying around at home when I was a kid :)

i can't remember a thing from this puzzle, so i'm just going to ask for a 'Q'.

Oh, wait, it ended summat with 'sunless sea'....

[Hellga]

In Xanadu did Khubla Khan
a stately pleasure dome decree,
where Alph the sacred river ran,
through caverns measureless to man,
down to a sunless sea

I remembered it from the last time (I think last time it was also me who got it :))

Now let me think of another one...

[Ardwinna]

Yes, Hellga, it was you who solved it originally :)

I suppose you want some more chocolate now, huh??

;)

:p

[Hellga]

Isn't it weird how history repeats itself? ;)

No, thanks, I don't want anymore chocolate. But if you know someone who would help me with analytical chemistry lab write-ups, I would appreciate if you would ship them over :)

It is from a book :)

[Ardwinna]

Ardwinna carefully packs Stephen Hawking in a large shipping crate along with some water and munchies, drills some breathing holes in the crate and sends him off to Nebraska...

I know he's really an astrophysicist, but he's pretty dang smart!! I'm sure he'd be able to help you with your chemistry, too :D But seriously, I hope you do all right with your reports... I wish I really could help you :hug:

May I please have an S for splendiferous?

:D

[tapstree]

Tartan 'Rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr's, please. :)

Wow, Hellga, to think that i started my undergrad degree in the science programme, i truly had no idea what all i was in for! :eek: A part of me still envies anyone who can make it thru those programmes, tho - i'd love more than anything to be a scientist! (or pharmacist :)).

[Iceray]

An E, please! :cool: :)

[Hellga]

You know, taps, it really is as horrible as it seems, and I often wish I were a psychology major or something like that :rolleyes: Of course, such thoughts don't linger, but they regularly appear - whenever an exam or an assignment is around :)

[Ardwinna]

Could I please have a G for Gee, MA, didn't your wheel come back??? :confused:

:p

[Kristin]

I would like an O. :)

[Loopy Loupie]

As it's now the next day here can I have a L for Loupie please

[Hellga]

Sorry to leave you for such a long time - I had bad day yesterday. We had first snow, and I lost control of my car on one turn, spun around four times and went into the ditch. Thank god for three people who stopped and helped me push my car out. And it's good there were no cars around so no one hit me while I was spinning. So I was very tired wehn I got home and fell asleep right after supper. I didn't even wash the dishes. :eek:

A, P, N, D, Y, G, O, L

[tomme2]

just in case it isn't obvious to anyone yet, can I have a 'u', for 'you've GOT to be able to figure this one out by now'
;)

[Hellga]

[tapstree]

No, i think it'd be kind of neat to see it all spelled out for once. Oh, wait a minute, my Mr. Dahl passage got to that stage too, didn't it? :o

:devil:

[Loopy Loupie]

I must be exceptionally thick or it may just be that it's first thing in the morning here, but I don't know what it is yet so can I have a F,

[Elentiriel]

I'm going to be arrogant and order an "I".
Hmm..I've got most of it figured out. There's just some words that are confusing.

(Please? An "I" for me?)

[Massive_Attack]

Nope, still missing a couple of words :rolleyes:

Can I please have a W for "Where's my wheel, dude?"

[pmcatnip]

Ooh! I love this part of the book! :D
"You're arrested for Gate-breaking, and Tearing up of Rules, and Assaulting Gate-keepers, and Trespassing, and Sleeping in Shire-buildings without Leave, and Bribing Guards with Food."

[Hellga]

Great job, pmcatnip! You get my permission not to do your homework and just tell you teachers "I watched LotR SE DVD with Hellga's permission!" :)

Sorry, I am not very imaginative and in a hurry

May I have an "E" for "Evil cousins whose company I have to Endure for an Evening"

[Ardwinna]

May I please have an S for sleepy??

I'm just going to curl up and have a nap over here in the corner where no one will trip over me :sleep:

[Massive_Attack]

May I have an I for "Is it just me, or is there an article on the Council-of-Elrond front page entitled 'Massive_Attack'?" :confused: :cool:

[vandevere]

T for the Turkey I ate today?

Vandevere

[tapstree]

Woo! You're making the headlines, Massive! :clap:

'R's for me, please, pm? My turn for night-night time now - boy i've been looking forward to this moment since my alarm went off at 5:30 this morning! :sleep:

[tapstree]

Why does "Joseph and the Amazing Technicolour Dreamcoat" come to mind when i see that?

'O's, pm? :)

[pmcatnip]

Plenty of O's for ya, taps.

[Hellga]

Listen children to a story
that was written long ago
Of a kingdom on a mountain
and the valley far below

I think this is right, though I am not that sure. I need to think of the next puzzle. It's so hard.

[pmcatnip]

Ooh, you're so close Hellga! But I'm going to be mean today. :devil: You're two words off. Compare your answer with the number of letters in each word in the puzzle to find out which two. Then it shouldn't be too hard to figure out what they are. :)

Listen / _ _ il _ ren / to / _ / stor _ /

[Hellga]

I see them, but I really have no idea. :)

[pmcatnip]

*cough*cheat*cough* ;)
At least guess a letter. It's a brand new day. :)

[Hellga]

Then let's have an "H" :)

[pmcatnip]

Three aitches for Hellga. :hug:

[Iceray]

I've got it! :)

"Listen children, to a story that was written long ago, 'bout a kingdom on a mountain and the valley folk below."

It's from the folk song "One Tin Soldier" written by Dennis Lambert and Brian Potter in 1969 and popularized by Joni Mitchell.

New one:

Edit:
Oops, just discovered how close Hellga already was in her guess. :o So sorry, Hellga. Do you want to give us the next one or is it okay if I continue?

[Hellga]

No no no! Go ahead. YOu have saved me the trouble of looking for a puzzle. Besides, I have asked a few already, and I think it is your first one :notworthy :hug: I would never have guessed "'bout" part :)

May I please have an "E"?

[pmcatnip]

Congratulations Iceray! May I have an aarrrrrr, please?

[tapstree]

Hurrah, Iceray :clap:


:D

i'd like to ask for 'N', please.

[Massive_Attack]

Iceray, fancy a spot of T?

[tapstree]

What about a 'U', and a hint, please?

[pmcatnip]

V, please. Where is this from? A movie, book, song, etc?

Hint: It's from a poem about a the tragic death of a lady who's fleeing from her angry father. ;)

Please forgive the "s" in the last post - it was just a typo. :)

[Princess Aurora]

C please, for "Crap, I have class tomorrow."

[mallorniphredil]

an O for 'Ohhhhhh', please!

[Hellga]

Let's go with an "S" this time around :)

I know a few pieces, but can't quite link them together yet :)

[tapstree]

New day! :clap: Any 'D's in there, Iceray?

(i'm guessing this is a Tolkien passage? :confused: )

:)

[Loopy Loupie]

Can I have an f for fox please,

[Iceray]

No, it's not Tolkien - but the poem somehow reminds me of him. :) The poet is from Scotland. . .

[Ardwinna]

Iceray, may I please have a W for 'what a day!!' :rolleyes:

:p

[Gilrandir]

"I" for "I think my head's going to explode..."

KABOOM!!

Not again... Gil scurries to retrieve her brains before Reba gets her hands on them again :rolleyes: :D

[Iceray]

LOL, Gilrandir! :D What does Reba want with bits of your brain? :confused:

Quite a lot of w's in there:

[Hellga]

By this the storm grew loud apace
The water-wraith was shrieking
And in the scowl of heaven each face
Grew darker as they were speaking

Beautiful and very sad poem, isn't it?

I am going to look for the next puzzle. Though my lab manual which is sitting in front of the monitor is as puzzling as things get :rolleyes:

[tapstree]

Warning: Use of organic chem manuals for setting puzzles is strictly prohibited by law!

:trout:

[Hellga]

How about analytical chemistry manuals? I will quote one of my favorite phrases from it.

_ _ / _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ /, _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ / _ _ / _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ _ / _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ / _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ _ _ /.

I hope I haven't missed any letters. I swear that it doesn't have any chemistry-related words and no special terminology. It is a very useful phrase, that relates to what we are doing in this thread as well. :D

[tapstree]

LOL!! Throws a shipload of trouts at Hellga. :trout:

Then give us a 'T', please? :hug:

[Ardwinna]

And they called me a smarty-pants? Sheesh! :rolleyes: ;) :p

May I please have an I for "I'm going home in 40 minutes... and counting"? :D

Or that could be I for "I'm hungry" :p

[Hellga]

It's not the phrases there that are scary. It is what they tell you to do :eek:

[Gilrandir]

"A" for "Argh! I hate homework!" please!

[Elentiriel]

What about "E" for "eek!There's a pile of homework behind me..."?

[mallorniphredil]

An 'L' for lazybones which I am, please. :)

[Théodwyn]

A Y for "You missed Dwinna's I!" :)

[Iceray]

I'd like a 'd' for "It's dark, not darker, but I accept your solution anyway. :D

Yes, you're almost as bad as I am, Hellga - you really missed Ardwinna's "I"s. ;)

[tapstree]

lol, Iceray ;).

What about 'R's?








:trout: Analytical chemistry :rolleyes: :trout: ;)

[Hellga]

A, E, L, I, Y, D, R

I missed her "I" because she posted after I started to reply, so I haven't seen her post, and I went to :sleep: right after that post :p

[Loopy Loupie]

H for help I have three assignments due in next Friday, or for Horray I have lambing tomorrow. I've been waiting to learn it since I started here.

I'm pretty close to solving it, just a few more words

[Iceray]

"If you cannot find this information, you must still list and record the progress that you _ _ e d in your failed search to receive credit for the attempt. "

Is this right so far? I just can't solve that last missing word! Someone help me out, please. :)

[Loopy Loupie]

I believe it is;

If you cannot find this information, you must still list and record the progress that you used in your failed search to receive credit for the attempt

Am I right? and does this mean I finally get to post one or shall I leave it to Iceray as I would not have got it without her

[Iceray]

Ah, thanks loupie! :) You can have the next one, I'm already looking forward to see what it is. :)

[Hellga]

Congratulations, Loupie :notworthy

Your prize? I guess not having to take this course is a reward enough ;) Your prize is the trip to the horror house here (www.whfreeman.com/qca) ;) :rolleyes:

[Iceray]

Whaaa!! :eek: Can't you post a warning before linking to something like that?! I'm traumatized for life!! ;)

[tapstree]

lolol!!

Way to go, Loopy!!! :clap: Hug a few lambs for me! :):):)

[Hellga]

:LOL: Iceray! I warned that that is a horror house :) Now imagine that I have exam in that in exactly two weeks, and I should know everything. Every single chapter, and be able to do all the problems. :eek:

[Ardwinna]

What's this?? Talking about me while I'm gone??!? :rolleyes:

;)

:p

Ai! Hellga, you have my eternal sympathy :eek: That looks much more frightening than the Physics course that I did... and did badly, too :o ;) :p

[Loopy Loupie]

by Tapstree
Hug a few lambs for me!

I would have done but it was only lambing stimulation, a tank with a still born lamb in it, that can be put in different positions for us to practice on.

Ok new puzzle, its another saying but a more philospohical one.

[Hellga]

an "E" for "Eager to be done with my classes," please :)

[Iceray]

Aaaarrrr, please. :cool:

No, I also can't guess which manga that is Gilrandir - please tell me! What do you especially like about it?

((((Hellga))))

[Gilrandir]

"K" for "Kindaichi Shonen no Jikembo (The Casefiles of Young Kindaichi)" , my favorite manga ^_^ It's a series of murder mysteries that Kindaichi Hajime solves. I really like the characterization and trying to solve the complex murder plans that the murderers implement.

(The girl in the hat is Nanase Miyuki, Kindaichi's girlfriend... the guy in the gray shirt is Kindaichi. Oh yeah, I also like his ponytail ^_^)

[tapstree]

"manga"? It sounds interesting enough! Are you in Asia, Gil? :) It's a great avatar - and no, you're not a need-a-lifer - you just have an interest in something! :trout:
;)



i can't sleep, and i'm mad and sad and all sorts of miserable things, and don't know what letter to call... :(... cries...

*:hug: Tapstree* I live in Taiwan, actually... Glad to hear that ^^; Nobody I know, IRL and (so far) on the Internet, knows about Kindaichi... *Sighs*

:rotfl: @ the quote Too true! :D

And I call an "E" in advance, in case Théodwyn got it... (I bet she did ^_^)

[mallorniphredil]

I am also calling an 'H' in advance, please. :D

[Loopy Loupie]

Yes Théodwyn, that is correct. I'll find you a prize later, I haven't got time at the moment

[tapstree]

Yay Theo! :clap:



:D


Um, e, h... 'D' in advance please :).

thanks for all the :hug: guys! :kiss:

[Théodwyn]

Sorry for the delay! :o

Okie, the following is a snippet from a very famous poem of olde.
With Gil's E, Lorn's H, Tap's D

_ _ _ e / _ h _ / _ e _ _ / _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ / _ _ / h e _ _ _ /, _ _ d / _ _ _ e / _ h _ / _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ / _ _ / d _ _ _ /!
_ _ _ _ h / _ h e / _ _ _ e _/, "_ e _ e _ _ _ _ e."

[mallorniphredil]

May I please have an 'A'? :)

[Gilrandir]

"Take thy beak from out my heart, and take thy form from off my door!"
Quoth the Raven, "Nevermore."


Edgar Allen Poe. The "nevermore" was a dead giveaway ^_^

Be back in a few with a new puzzle...

Edit: This one's going to be verrry short :D

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

Hint: I was inspired in Angband.

[tapstree]

Angband, eh? 'Q' then please.




And hurrah Gilrandir!! :clap:

[Gilrandir]

Nope, no Qs... It's a very, very strangely satisfying word. To me, at least.

Gilrandir bows to the applause, and blushes T'wernt much... really...

[pmcatnip]

How bout an A for 'Angband.'

[GALADRlEL]

How bout an R for RRRRRRRR

[Théodwyn]

Damnation! I mean... err... Congratulations, Gil! ;)

Since you're a fan of the guy, you're prize shall be this beyootiful poster of Kindaichi...
http://www.abcb.com/kindaichi/title.jpg
PLUS an all expenses paid trip to Kindaichi land! (http://www.abcb.com/kindaichi/)

And I'll have E, please.

[Gilrandir]

Nope, no As, Rs, or Es... (Gee, this one's probably going to be hard... ~.~;) Um... It's a word you'll never find in a dictionary.

Thank you Théodwyn! Scurries off to Kindaichi Land...

Ooooooooooooooooo!! :swoon:

[GALADRlEL]

An S for SAK please!

[mallorniphredil]

*searches for an unlikely letter* I'll go with a 'U', please.

[Hellga]

Would that be the "GBLOINKY"?

Just don't ask me what that is... I only lurk in Angband once a month for no more than 10 minutes. Too much silliness :)

[Gilrandir]

Gilrandir applauds.

Yep, you're right!

Actually, I don't really know what Gbloinky is... I imagine it's something like Alcarinque's avatar, though. It's such a funny word to say...

And... you get...

http://www.thinkgeek.com/images/products/front/lotr.jpg

Isn't it prettyful? :D

[vandevere]

What exactly is Gbloinky anyway? I've seen that word several times and it's beginning to drive me crazy. Can someone tell me what Gbloinky is?

Vandevere

[Hellga]

What a gorgeous gift, Gilrandir! :hug:

In a few minutes I will severe my ties to the world of living as I will learn my grade on Organic exam, and then I have to turn in analytical chemistry problems, of which I haven't done some. We need a scared/shivering smiley.

[Princess Aurora]

This book is largely concerned with hobbits, and from its pages, a reader may discover much of their character and a little of their history. :)

So what if I only show up for the easy ones? :p

Your prize... I am too brain-dead to think of a prize. http://www.sweetexpressions.com/Merchant2/graphics/00000001/3119a.jpg

Elton John? Billy Joel? Harry Connick Jr.? Sarah McLachlan? :confused:

Am i close, PA??? :notworthy

Let's try an 'R'?

[vandevere]

[Princess Aurora]

Hurrah Christi! :clap:

'M', please? EDIT: Uhhh, looks at PA's post. i meant 'N'... yeah, 'N', please. :trout:

[Hellga]

Great job, Christi!

May I have an "E" for "Evil Exams draining my soul"?

[Loopy Loupie]

Can I have a C for the christmas card sitting beside me at the moment

[Gilrandir]

"E" for "Eek! That's one weird picture!"

No offense... but those freaky eyes... The eyeses, they burnss uss... *Cringes*

[mallorniphredil]

One 'S', please! :D

[Massive_Attack]

May I have an A for "Anniversary", since it was exactly a year ago that I registered at Imladris!

Rudolph the red nosed reindeer had a very shiny nose. And if you ever saw it, you would even say it glows.

I'm no good at making these quote thingies. If I'm right, could someone else do the quote thingy?


:o

Vandevere

[tapstree]

Good one, Vandevere! :clap:

Go on, don't be shy - just choose the first lines out of your favourite book or song... give it try?

[vandevere]

I don't know how to do it the way you people do. I'll have to use question marks for the letter-spaces...

??? ???? ???? ???? ?? ??? ??

Clue: It's in LOTR (The Books, not the films)

Vandevere

Ps...How do you get the spaces most of you use for your letter-spaces?

[tapstree]

Use the underscore key, Vandevere, and press the space-bar between every stroke with a slash ( / ) at the end of every word. The question marks are a perfect modification, though, and work just as well :hug:.

May i please have an 'E'?

[vandevere]

??e ???? ??e? e?e? ?? ??? ??

Since I don't know what the underscore key is, I think I'll stick with the ??s

Vandevere

[pmcatnip]

To make an underscore (_), press SHIFT and the hyphen (-) key together. No shift key: - - - With shift key: _ _ _ :)

I'll have a spot of T, please.

Nature's first green is gold,
Her hardest hue to hold.
Her early leaf's a flower;
But only so an hour.
Then leaf subsides to leaf.
So Eden sank to grief,
So dawn goes down to day.
Nothing gold can stay.
Robert Frost

Right?

Hmmm, i can make out everything but the last word - any 'P's in there, Gil?

[Hellga]

An "A" for "Analytical chemistry exams should be deemed unconstitutional, since they are a form of cruel and unusual punishment"

Gilrandir, normal northern mosquitoes aren't that scary. I grew up in place where from late May to mid-September there were so many mosquitoes, that went you went to a woody area after a rain, you would have to look at the world through a thick cloud of moquitoes. And no repellent helps. But at least they don't look that scary. I have been on an exhibit once, where there were huge spiders and beetles from Tailand, some as big as my hand. I was so scared :eek: I asked a friend who is Tai if they really are that big and whether they actually are around, and they said yes :eek: :eek: :eek: I am grateful I am a Northerner and never had to see such insects and spiders other than in glass boxes :)

S for "Spiders, Big hairy crawling on the ceiling right now"

Hellga: The mosquitoes around here seem to breed in the everpresent rice paddies. They're here year round, except when the cold slows them down so much that they can't move. It seems like Taiwan makes up for not having cute furry woodland animals by having big huge furry insects... Cockroaches, mosquitoes, beetles, and (presumably) wolf spiders everywhere, and a couple thousand species of unidentifiable bugs ranging from teeny to humongous. At least we have lots of pretty butterflies, though...

[Anarie]

Spiders!!! :eek:

[tapstree]

Presses her fingertips against her temples and concentrates hard...

Oh, i think i see it - vaguely in the mist...

The air around her begins to quiver as the revelation makes itself clearer and clearer...

Is it... think, think, think... is it, "Money is better than poverty, if only for financial reasons."?

Ice, can you do another one, and give us a bit more of a challenge? ;) i seriously missed it the first time i posted after you'd set the new puzzle :trout:...

[Théodwyn]

Love is a smoke raised with the fume of sighs being purged, a fire sparkling in lover's eyes, being vexed, a sea nourished with lovers' tears.
What is it else? A madness most discreet,
A choking gall and persevering sweet.

Shakespeare... Great choice Iceray! :)

The following is an excerpt from a pretty famous book.
I'd say it was from part of a series of fantasy books, but that would be saying too much.

I'd like an M for I'm going to Holland tomorrow! :)

[Hellga]

I know what book it is from. :D But I only have it in Russian. :( I will see what I can do.

EDIT:

Here, I found it.

Wrong will be right, when Aslan comes in sight,
At the sound of his roar, sorrows will be no more,
When he bares his teeth, winter meets its death
And when he shakes his mane, we shall have spring again.

It is from "The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe" from the Narnia Chronicles.

[Théodwyn]

Congrats Hellga! :clap:

And your prize for tonight iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiis...

Among the tales of sorrow and of ruin that come down to us from the darkness of those days there are yet some in which amid weeping there is joy, and under the shadow of death, light that endures.

Fifteen birds in five fir trees,
Their feathers were fanned in a fiery breeze!
But, funny little birds, they had no wings!
O what shall we do with the funny little things?


I like Tolkien's poems, especially those in the Hobbit :)

I'll be back with something for you peoples to guess soon... Wanders off, thinking hard

Would you like me to provide you a translation?

I will think of one (unless my internet dies again, as it has done a few times during the last couple days)

[Gilrandir]

:clap: :clap: :clap: (You'll have to imagine the sound yourself... ;))

I'm one of those people who know it by heart... drives the non-LOTR-freaks crazy :D

And I request an A in advance for... uh... "advance" :p

S for Snow as it is finally snowing!!!

[Iceray]

Lots of Ms please! :)

[Gilrandir]

Ooooh, I know this! I know this!


The wolf howls. The ravens flee.
The ice mutters in the mouths of the Sea.
The captives sad in Angband mourn.
Thunder rumbles, the fires burn ---
And Finrod fell before the throne.


I love that section! It evokes such vivid images...

Lets see, what should I set you peoples... I'll be right back, I promise... Think think think

Edit: Aha!

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ / _ _ /_ _ _ _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _.

[Hellga]

Could I have an "H" for "how did you guess it with so few letters, Gilrandir? :notworthy :hug:"

[Gilrandir]

I saw all the "the" spaces and then the "ravens flee" spaces and, well... ^_^

S, F, H... No Fs, though.

[MysticMariel]

[Anarie]

L for Latin!

[Gilrandir]

R and L...

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ / _ _ / S _ _ l l a _ / _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ a r e / _ h a _ _ _ _ _ _.

[Anarie]

C please?

[mallorniphredil]

*scratches her head* I have no idea how to speak Latin but can I please have an I?

[Gilrandir]

C and I... Mally, neither do I. I just have selective amnesia, and apparently random Latin phrases aren't affected. :rolleyes:

I _ c i _ i _ / i _ / S c _ l l a _ / _ _ i / _ _ _ _ / _ i _ a r e / C h a _ _ _ _ i _.

[MysticMariel]

P.S., is that in English, Gil?? :confused:

[Hellga]

Could I have a "U"?

[Gilrandir]

E, T, D, U... Tapstree, see my earlier post (the one before that... No, before that one, too... a bit to the right... no, no, no, my right, your left... no too far, back a bit... ah, perfect! :D)

Oh, and I apologize if I had spelled it wrong after all... I'm pretty sure I got it right. Ten thousand websites can't be wrong... can they? Perish the thought!

[Loopy Loupie]

This is probaly going to have to be solved in order for us to figure out what it is

Erm N please

[Anarie]

Incidit in Scyllam qui vult vitare Charybdin!

Woohoo! I love latin.

I'll post the new one later.

[Iceray]

Incidit in Scyllam, cupiens vitare Charybdim. - Virgil

(He runs on Scylla, wishing to avoid Charybdis.)

Edit:

Aw, so close! *grumbles*

Congrats, Anarie! :clap:

[Loopy Loupie]

Wow, and we can spend ages tryinmg to slove the ones in English,

[Anarie]

Here's a new one, quote from a children's book -

_ _ _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ / _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ / _ / _ _ _ _ _ _ _.


It's short, so it should be easy. :)

[Elfdaughter]

A please! (Children's book and short so it should be easy?:eek: )

[Iceray]

I always found the longer ones easier because you have more words to give you a clue.

Anyway, I'd like to see some Mmmm's, please. :)

[Anarie]

No M there.

_ _ _ _ _ _ / _ a _ / _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ / a / _ a _ _ _ _ _.

Eh? Eh?? Howzat for proficiency??

[Iceray]

LOL, you only got ONE letter wrong.

The correct sentence is:

I would rather do anything than be seen with an umbrella - I'd rather drown in the rain.

It's from Amitav Ghosh's "The Glass Palace".

I knew something was wrong with me that summer, because all I could think about was the Rosenbergs and how stupid I'd been to buy all those uncomfortable, expensive clothes, hanging limp as fish in my closet...and how all the little successes I'd totted up so happily at college fizzled to nothing outside the slick marble and plate-glass fronts along Madison Avenue.

From The Bell Jar. :) A great book!

Next one: A quote from a recent movie.

To be sane in an insane world is, in itself, insanity.

[Théodwyn]

_ _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ _ !

[tapstree]

Ardwinna: :eek:

Aduial: :clap: And welcome. Have i seen you here before? :)

i'd like to request a 'Q' for DAMMIT DOES ANYONE WANT TO BUY AN 11 YEAR OLD CHILD??????

<SOB>

[Lasgalen]

[Aduial Estel]

Character 1: _ _ _ ' T / _ _ _ _ / _ _ / _ T _ _ _ _ !
Character 2: _ _ / _ _ _ _ T , / T _ / _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ /

Ardwinna: LOL! :rotfl: Just what I've always wanted! A cat that...looks like an arm...hehehe ::huggles the amazing arm-cat::
Tapstree: Hehe, nope, I'm a n00b! ::waves:: But no Q's...I'm sorry. :( BUUUUUUUUUT.....we DO have a T! Quite a few, in fact...:p

[Aduial Estel]

A bunch of Ds, coming right up!

[Lasgalen]

Aduial Estel,
Now that cat has class! Guinness is my fav beer!

-Lasgalen

[Aduial Estel]

Only the best, right! I bet that little cretin was the one who came up with the idea of shaving poor Mr. Bigglesworth whilst in a drunken stupor. ;)

[Elfdaughter]

OK.... how's about an L for Let's get back to the subject? (check out my new cat adoration thread. You can post those piccies in there!):D

[lizz]

An ´e ´ please

[mallorniphredil]

[Lasgalen]

I will attempt to solve to puzzle:

"Don't call me stupid"
"Oh right, to call you stupid would be an insult to stupid people"

Is that right?

-Lasgalen

[Aduial Estel]

But of course! ::tear:: You gotta love A Fish Called Wanda. [At least, that's where I got it from, I'm sure it originated somewhere else. :p]
:notworthy Go forth, Lasgalen!

[Lasgalen]

I hope this hasn't been done already. I tried to check, but this is a very long thread.

This is from a song. (sort of Tolkien related)

[Molk Fx]

"E" for "We'll be gentle"

[Aduial Estel]

How about a T, for "That's what you think!" ...mwahaha kidding, of course, my dear. :devil: er, I mean :angel:

EDIT: Eeep, I'm sorry! I withdraw my guess! I didn't see that [so maybe reading instructions is a good thing, after all...] ::hastily scratches out post::

You just need to cheat in a more creative way is all.

I'd like a "A" for "Ahh! Theres money in it for you, Las"

Hi [M]ad[C]at and Aduial :wave:.

[Aduial Estel]

AHA! I'm guessing you're a Zeppelin fan, Las? :D

In the darkest depths of Mordor, I met a girl so fair. But Gollum and the Evil one crept up and slipped away with her.

Lovely choice, Las!

Okay, I'm feeling lazy, so here's a few lines from a song in LotR.

_ _ _ _ / _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ , / _ _ _ / _ _ /

EDIT: The reason the quote looks different is because I rearranged the length of each line because I realised I accidentally added an extra word. It's still the same quote though, I promise. ;)

[[M]ad[C]at]

I'll have an 'A'. :)

"This wallpaper will be the death of me, one of us will have to go" by Oscar Wilde, isn't it? I will admit I had to use Google to get "wallpaper" since the only word I could think about was, strangely, cadaver. That would tell you what kind of books I have been reading recently :rolleyes:

I will try to think of a puzzle and post it soon...

[Hellga]

Here it goes... It is from a children's book

Thou art more lovely and more temperate.

Vandevere

[childofvalinor]

ooooh. can i have an R please? are we only allowed to do one letter at a time? :D

[Loopy Loupie]

The rule is only one letter a day, this means that one person will not ask for all the letters and solve it before any one else has a chance, you can still guess if you have used your letter for today. And Welcome to the thread :hug:

Can I have a T please, whoops thats already gone, erm D then please

[Heri]

And here we go: T's, D's and S's. :D

And each separate dying ember wrought its ghost upon the floor.

I please Heri, don't know if thats been asked and I can't bebothered to check

[Hellga]

"It is not true that the English invented cricket as a way of making all other human endeavors look interesting and lively; that was merely an unintended side effect"

BTW, I have no idea how to play it - the only thing I know aobut cricket is that it was mentioned in Alice in Wonderland... :rolleyes:

[Heri]

:clap: YAY Hellga. :D


As your prize, here's your very own "Introduction to Cricket, a 2-minute Tutorial by Heri"...


1. Look at the photo provided.

2. Stare at it for 7 hours, non-stop.

3. Return tomorrow, and keep staring at the photo.

4. Randomly shout out (in a British accent, of course): "Good fohm!", "Jolly Good!", "I say!", or a combination of the three.

5. Congratulations. You have now experienced a full-fledged cricket match. :D

[Loopy Loupie]

Being English I have to agree with you on that one Heri.

Well done Hellga:clap:

[Hellga]

It is from a song... I actually haven't heard the song but I liked the lyrics...

EDIT - :D Now that's what I call a psychic cross-post! :clap:

:hug:



And how 'bout a few S's for "Smilies, Smilies, wherefore art thou, O Smilies".



(PS - Is anyone here in the Pony experiencing a strange state of Smilielessness, where everything is replaced by the Red-Cross-of-Doom? :( If so, join us in Questions, Questions, Questions.)

My smilies work, even though my connection is dreadfully slow.

BTW, is cricket really THAT boring? Though speaking of boring games, baseball reigns supreme. Not even when I with free ticket and free food I could subject myself to the torture of staying through whole game and ran away after 10 minutes :rolleyes: Even one of my friends who played baseball in college agrees taht it is dreadfully boring to watch :D

[Christi B.]

Yes, yes, yes Hellga! I'm right there with you on baseball. Unfortunately, many of my male friends enjoy playing it, and I'm often suckered into watching the games. Could we not have picked... oh, soccer for our nation's pasttime?!

Err... back on topic, I'd like an A, por favor! :)

[Aduial Estel]

May I have an E, Hellga, for "eeeeeeeeeeew baseball?"

Baseball is the most dreadfully boring sport. I don't think I've ever sat through more than 5 minutes of a game. I don't see why it's "America's pasttime"...they should spend more time with really fascinating sports, like football [not American football, though that can be exciting at times], rugby, or lacrosse. Woohoo!

EDIT -- Dammit, other-half-of-my-brain, this posting at approximately the same time and saying almost the same thing business has got to stop. I'm gettin' a lobotomy. ;) :hug:

Personally I love watching hockey (what did you expect from a person who comes from a place where winter is 7 months long, and snow stays from early October until mid-April) :rolleyes: And basketball (occasionally). But my most favorite sport to watch is biathlon :swoon: (I have clear preference for winter sports... :p)

That was a quick guess :eek: Just a few letters are there :jawdrop:

:notworthy Congratulations! :notworthy

May I have an "E" for "Evil professors"?

[Aduial Estel]

Haha, Ardwinna, I'm from the South, and Trisha Yearwood sings that song [I don't know if she wrote it or not, most country singers don't write their own stuff...or most singers these days, for that matter]. I hate country music, but when it's around you all the time, things tend to stick. :p

Yay pipples :clap: you can do it!

Now if only i could just SLEEP!! :mad: :p :D

Can i have an 'S' please Heri?

P.S., i just saw your photos in the photo thread, Heri! You're so beautiful!! "Unphotogenic"... pshaw!

A few O's for the brilliantly witty writer behind "Modern LotR". :clap:

:D There is, but it has already been asked a couple of days ago, so it's already there in the quote. :p Neener neener. ;)

:jawdrop: Gigantic words! :jawdrop:




:D I will admit to just having spent about 5 minutes trying to fit in there any and every possible spelling of supercallifragilisticexpialidocious I could think of. :LOL:

[Christi B.]

LOL! They're not meant to be gigantic words... I didn't realize you could separate those enough with spaces! My bad. I'll fix it. :)

[Aduial Estel]

Hmm, Stinks, may I have a T for "Touch my bum, this is life"?

[mallorniphredil]

Can I have an 'M' again, please? :D

[[M]ad[C]at]

I'll go for an 'A', please. :)

[Heri]

Well done, Hellga! :clap: As I promised, here is your hefty prize I promised! :D

Congrats, Hellga! I haven't been in here for a while, but playing is fun! legolass waits for the next puzzle

[Aduial Estel]

Hee. :) Yeah, that song is pretty much Christi's and my theme song. We go around, serenading at will. We're the non-Romanian Cheeky Girls. ;) What cracks me up is their MOTHER wrote it. A rock could've written that song. :LOL:

[Hellga]

This is from a song... I will make it extremely short :)

"A" for "AAAAGH! I have a humongous science report due tomorrow! And I'm not done!"

Gil's little sister: Gil really shouldn't procrastinate.
Gil's brain: Yeah, I agree.
Gil's instinct: Put it off put it off put it off!

[mallorniphredil]

some people might be interested in this (http://www.cheeky-girls.com/song.html) link. :D

Can I have a "C" for "Cheeky girls" please? :D

[Heri]

Give us a few N's for "Nothing starting with N comes to mind"? :D

[Hellga]

One "N," no "C"s and one typo fixed

M for moon, guess what our lecture was about this afternoon, and I got called a geek and a pagen because I know when the next full moon is :eek: :( and in the lecture before told that the ginger cat we were shown was ugly, it looked a lot like my old actavar.

[Hellga]

What stupid lecture is that? WHy do you have to listen to that crap? :hug: That cat was adorable, I remember her very well :rolleyes:

Speaking of your avatars, it was that dog-shaking-head avatar you had back in the fall 2001 that prevented me from joining CoE when I first stumbled onto it - it was the first forum I have ever seen and I were scared and confused :D

[childofvalinor]

can i have an L for love, because i'm preeety sure thats the second word.

Loupie, thats stupid! i know when the next full moon is, (march 18th, :D ) and i'm not a geek or a pagan! *hopes*

what stupid lectures. plus teachers should never tell their pupils to think something. they should only give information, and let students form their own opinions. huh, as if a cat could be ugly anyway! :mad: cats are my fave animals! they're so great! i dont know what that movie Cats & Dogs is about, cos i think that if cats ruled the world it would be brilliant. ;) :p :D

i'll stop rambling now. dont mind me :D :rolleyes:

EDIT: oh my Eru! what is my brother doing in this forum? i thought this was the one place ( beside elf appreciation groups ;) ) that i could escape him! i post something, and am thankful that he wont read it and call me a geek, and then he turns up! i mean, what is the deal with that???!!!

[Loopy Loupie]

I think I got it, can I guess, can I , can I can, can I!!!

Loupie starts jumping up and down

Is it;

I work all night
I work all day,
To pay the bills
I have to pay

Don't ask me how I got that it just came to me

Oh and it was other students who were making those comments, I happen to know as I'm a werecat and my old actavar was me in cat form, the other students don't live on campus and don't know about that, so I think I can forgive them

[childofvalinor]

OME, your a cat too? i am! i am the Feline Goddess! my tortoiseshell cat is my High-priestess. cool, huh? :D

damn, i was completely wrong! apart from the fact that i had night right. i knew that bit! :rolleyes: :trout: me, im thick!

oh thats ok then, they are fogiven. they cant help being ignorent! ;)

[Loopy Loupie]

Thanks Child of Valinor, assuming I'm right, I'll be back with a new quote soon

[Hellga]

You are absolutely correct, Loups :)

It is from ABBA song, I chose a very short piece to make it easy - it just flows together... and so true, too :rolleyes:

Your complimentary Hellga-Hug :hug:

[peterofvalinor]

Oh no! i wanted to ask for a T! :(
bring the next one on quick! :p

[legolass]

LOL, Hellga! Props to you for choosing ABBA! :clap: "Money, money, money, must be funny ... :D" My mom and I sing that on karaoke all the time :D

legolass awaits the next puzzle :)

[Heri]

Oh oh oh! I guessed Loopy's quote!

It's obviously "The Sound of Silence". ;)
