TOR.net will be involved in presenting a new program theme, or track, centering on JRR Tolkien and his works. <\/p>\n<p>A couple sessions will consist of trivia contests. Knowing how much many of you enjoy the trivia quiz posted <a HREF=\"http:\/\/greenbooks.theonering.net\/trivia\/game\/\">here<\/a> on the Green Books pages, I thought it would be cool to offer everyone a chance to suggest a trivia question (or a few).<\/p>\n<p>The categories are: <br \/><b>Tolkien, the Man<\/b> (trivia centered on JRR: his life, his family, his friends) <br \/><b>There and Back Again<\/b> (questions specifically related to The Hobbit)<br \/><b>Persons, Places, Races, Rings and Things<\/b> (as it says : ); this is where swords and Crickhollow come to play)<br \/><b>History of Arda and Middle Earth<\/b> (who begat who, who killed who, and when!!)<br \/><b>LOTR, The Movies<\/b> (who is playing Hama? Who is the cinematographer?)<br \/><b>Lesser Known Works<\/b> (Farmer Giles, Smith of South Wootten Major, Roverandom, et al )<br \/><b>Battles<\/b> (test your battle knowledge&#8230; )<br \/><b>Women in LOTR<\/b> (so few and far between&#8230; )<br \/><b>The Silmarillion<\/b> (a tough category&#8230; lots of material to choose from)<br \/><b>Unfinished Tales<\/b> (not as tough as the Silm, but maybe a bit more obscure)<br \/><b>Love Stories<\/b> (Luthien and Beren, Aragorn and Arwen&#8230;. you get the idea)<br \/><b>Heros and Villians<\/b> (from Arda to Hobbiton&#8230; they&#8217;re everywhere!!)<\/p>\n<p>If you have an idea for another category, pass it on to me&#8230; : )<\/p>\n<p>Submit your trivia questions, answers (3 or 4 choices, with the correct choice underlined) and the source to <a HREF=\"mailto:jincey@theonering.net\">jincey<\/a>. These questions will premiere at DragonCon, and eventually will move onto our already huge trivia page.<\/p>\n<p>Deadline for questions to be in for the DragonCon contests is Sunday, June 25.<br \/>Thanks y&#8217;all : )<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>TheOneRing.net will be in Atlanta GA June 29 &#8211; July 2 at Dragon*con 2000 for what promises to&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":17,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":false,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[136],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-23805","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-barliman-news"],"aioseo_notices":[],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p1tLoH-6bX","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.theonering.net\/torwp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/23805","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.theonering.net\/torwp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.theonering.net\/torwp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.theonering.net\/torwp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/17"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.theonering.net\/torwp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=23805"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.theonering.net\/torwp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/23805\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.theonering.net\/torwp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=23805"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.theonering.net\/torwp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=23805"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.theonering.net\/torwp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=23805"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
