Simple. Ask a question and whoever gets it right asks the next question.

What word did Gandalf have to say (in Elvish) to get into the Mines of Moria?

Mellon. [Friend.]

Who was Sauron's lord and master?

Saruman.

What was the name of Samwise Gamgee's first daughter?

Actually, that's wrong. Saruman was the former White Wizard in cahoots/working for Sauron, but never Sauron's master. The name escapes me and I have no idea where my LOTR books are to look for it.

Who did sauron convince to sail to the undying lands in 3319 of the 2nd age which resulted in the destruction of the island of Numenor?

I would've also accepted Melkor, tim.

Ar-Pharazôn was responsible for the fall of Númenor. (Sauron egged him on, but somehow didn't join in the assault.)

What were the names of the dwarves that Bilbo accompanied to the Lonely Mountain? Yes, I want all of 'em.

Sh*t.

Thorin, Balin, Oin, Gloin, Fili, Kili, Bofor.

That's all I can recall.

fully correct Uslesstrivaman
Thorin,fili,kili,Balin,Bifur, Bofur, Bombur, Oin, Gloin,Dori, Nori, and Ori were the 13 that accompained him.

Ah, but the Middle-Earth Universe extends far, far beyond that.

After wracking my brains for far too long, I finally gave in and looked up Bilbo's mother's name. I remembered Bungo Baggins... and I really should have remembered Belladonna Took. I'm still kicking myself for that...


At the end of Return of the King, who were the bearers/wearers of the three Elven Rings of Power?

Galadriel, Elrond, Gandalf?

Or did it change by the end?

Nope, those are indeed the three. You're up!

Hard one from the Silmarillion coming up...

What was the meaning of Túrin's sister's name?

Is that too hard a question? It's from the Silmarillion, btw...
