The most recent Hall of Fire discussion was another smashing success! For those of you unfortunate enough to have missed it, you can read the log here
Hidly Ho Barliman Chatters!
The everproductive hobbit Nob has put together a gallery of Barliman Regulars. You asked for it, you got it! Have a look at who’s chatting and submit your own picture here.
Have you seen our Map of Regulars? It’s truly incredible how many people from all over the planet have frequented Barliman’s chatroom! If you love maps like Bilbo and I do, you’ll appreciate this one put together by PipeSmoke.
Enjoy! 🙂
Again, faithfull chatters, I have been bested. Jan Hedberg aka. “Ecthelion” has correctly answered yesterday’s trivia question, the correct answer was “Duinhir”, I bow to you Ecthelion. Now lets see if you can answer today’s question!
In LotR, Who does this quote belong too? “Nay, though all things must come utterly to and end in time, Gondor shall not perish yet. Not though the walls be taken by some reckless foe that will build a wall of carrion before them. there are still other fastnesses, and secret ways of escape into the mountains. Hope and memory shall live still in some hidden valley, where the grass is green.”
As always, mail me with your answers, and the 1st correct reply will be posted here tomorrow. Have Fun!
Hullo!
Gandalf dropped this on my doorstep as he blurred past on Shadowfax late last night. He was yelling something about going out for Old Toby and Pepsi, but it wasn’t very clear. Looks like there’s another fun Hall of Fire coming up! Check it out:
What moment in the history of Middle Earth do you think is the scariest? The struggle in Shelob’s Lair? The trek through Moria? The abduction of Pippin and Merry at the hands of the Uruk-Hai? Or is there some other moment that you think is scarier?
Come join the throng at The Hall of Fire this Saturday, March 4. Please send your feedback and topic suggestions to The One Ring.net’s own wizard of reknown, Gandalf!
Thanks!

Another Tolkien scholar has answered my question today, but apparently this one was not so easy as the others, because I recieved only one correct response. The answer was “Oropher”, and the answer was again given by Mormegil, Mormegil is one sharp sword, eh folks?
Here is today’s question: “Who was Lord of Morthond at the time of the War of the Ring?”
Email me with your answers, and as always the first correct response will be posted here tomorrow. Good Luck!
