I worded this a bit tricky but finish this: "Over all the leagues of waste before the gates of Mordor there was..."

Aha!


Alrighty! Time to tally up the scores! Thank you all for playing. I apologize, apparently I was the one stuck with slow internet today, so I'm sorry for the lag in some parts.

Using a three-in-one LoTR book for reference is the worst for this game lol.

That's the copy I have to, and it's even worse for creating the questions because I keep forgetting where one ends and the other begins. It doesn't help that the movies don't match.

I mean, it could apply to more characters than just Treebeard, right? I'm sure Eomer was a little confused by it.

I definitely think so. :smiley9: Kind of the beauty of their whole thing, too. Maybe that was their main goal at first. Just yank people's chains.

Perhaps it would have been more remarked upon if it weren't for the hobbbits always shocking everyone with their existence

The Results of Round 1 & 2 & 3

Team A has scored 18.5 pts + 0 pts+ 13 pts= 31.5 pts
Team B has scored 20.5 pts + 30 pts + 7 pts = 57.5 pts
Team C has scored 0 + 15 pts +31 pts = 46 pts

Almarëa Mordollwen is the individual round 3 champion!

(We made it through exactly 50 questions! Great job all...this round went quite far towards evening up the team scores. Two rounds remain!)

P.S. At the judge's discretion *ahem* me *ahem*, one extra point was award Lantaelen for the best answer to a question yet this far, despite not being the correct one.

Round 4: The Return of the King will begin on Sunday, June 28, 4 am EST
(New faces are still welcome! Sign up in the OOC thread.)

Lol I don't think I deserve a point for an arbitrary answer made out of irritation due to incorrect page-flipping.
