Jo and the Bush all/any Posted August 17, 2015 Posted August 17, 2015 I was only able to get 5, which is pathetic!! (I think?)I could only get three, unless we count shardblades.
The Sovereign Posted August 18, 2015 Posted August 18, 2015 I was only able to get 5, which is pathetic!! (I think?) Make it 5 then.
The Sovereign Posted August 18, 2015 Posted August 18, 2015 (edited) 1. Night blood. 2. Syl 3. Pattern 4. Oathbringer 5. Adolin's Shardblade (That doesn't count, does it?)

Robinski he/him Posted August 19, 2015 Posted August 19, 2015 You can add Glamdring from LotR - Gandalf's sword, and Orcrist, which was Thorin's sword.
Jo and the Bush all/any Posted August 19, 2015 Posted August 19, 2015 The three I got were Frostmourne, Brisingr and Nightblood.
Newan he/him Posted August 19, 2015 Author Posted August 19, 2015 Here are three more: Oathkeeper (ASoI&F) Widow's Wail (ASoI&F) Narsil (LotR) 1
The Sovereign Posted August 19, 2015 Posted August 19, 2015 (edited) Here are three more: Oathkeeper (ASoI&F) Widow's Wail (ASoI&F) Narsil (LotR) I was blanking on Narsil! Thank you! Alright, well I think that topic is adequately expended. how about... Name the 10 Provinces of Canada. Edited August 19, 2015 by Iron Eyes
Kasimir he/him Posted August 19, 2015 Posted August 19, 2015 I was blanking on Narsil! Thank you! Alright, well I think that topical is adequately expended. how about... But there's Arondight, Durandal, Excalibur, Harvest, Fidelacchius, Amoracchius, Esparacchius, Griffin, Nehima, Curoch, Retribution, The Way, Light At The Heart of The Mountain, Tiger On The Mountain, Glorious Victory (Unsought), Beautiful Singer-- Okay, point taken 2

Here goes nothing British Columbia Alberta Saskatchewan Manitoba Ontario Quebec Yukon Nunavut Northwest Territories Prince Edward Island Now, WLIU name 3 of the 4 people in the deepest part of Hell, in Dante's Inferno. 1
FireSlayer she/her Posted August 20, 2015 Posted August 20, 2015 If I'm remembering correctly, three would be Lucifer, Judas Iscariot, and Brutus. WLIU, name 5 Shakesperean comedies, to continue the literary kick. 1

WLIU, name 5 Shakesperean comedies, to continue the literary kick.

Any word will do.
Robinski he/him Posted August 20, 2015 Posted August 20, 2015 (edited) One, Two, Three, Four, Five, Six, Seven...., You don't want me to type them all, do you? So, I haven't done this before - do I just assume I'm right and have a go? In which case: WLIU, what's in my pocket? (At time of posting, Starter for 10: there are 3 items, one of them is a note of my doctors appointment and another is a handkerchief). Edited August 20, 2015 by Robinski 1
Jivvy Posted August 20, 2015 Posted August 20, 2015 WLIU, what's in my pocket? The One Ring. If that is the answer you were looking for, my question is, without looking it up, what is written on the One Ring? (You don't need to give it in Elvish, English is fine.)
The Sovereign Posted August 20, 2015 Posted August 20, 2015 The One Ring. If that is the answer you were looking for, my question is, without looking it up, what is written on the One Ring? (You don't need to give it in Elvish, English is fine.) That's an easy one: "One ring to rule them all, one ring to find them, One ring to bring them all and in the darkness bind them." WLIU: Name the Horcruxes.
Jivvy Posted August 20, 2015 Posted August 20, 2015 WLIU: Name the Horcruxes. Ah, Harry Potter The Diary The Ring / Resurrection Stone The Locket The Cup The Diadem The Snake, Nagini WLIU: name all the characters of George RR Martin's A Song of Ice and Fire who have a chapter from their POV in all five books. (Hint: Jon Snow is NOT one of them. He does not have a chapter in A Feast for Crows.) Hint 2: There is only one.
Robinski he/him Posted August 20, 2015 Posted August 20, 2015 Well actually that wasn't the right answer. The one ring was in Bilbo's pocket, but clearly, I am not Bilbo Baggins. It was a trick question of course - so don't roll back the quiz. The correct answer was a memory stick with all my writing on it (about 900,000 words). But who was going to guess that. So, play on - I have no idea about the GRRM question.
ChocolateRob he/him Posted August 20, 2015 Posted August 20, 2015 (edited) um... Sarah Connor Emma Peel Fred Flintstone Sarah Connor Richard Sharpe Hmmm, I'll not post a question as I'm pretty sure I'm wrong. (Fred Flintstone and Richard Sharpe both died in the first book didn't they?) Edited August 20, 2015 by ChocolateRob
Robinski he/him Posted August 21, 2015 Posted August 21, 2015 Hmmm, I'll not post a question as I'm pretty sure I'm wrong. (Fred Flintstone and Richard Sharpe both died in the first book didn't they?) Ah, since that's the answer to a different question?
Newan he/him Posted August 21, 2015 Author Posted August 21, 2015 For people wondering about the rules: You don't actually have to get the question right before you ask a new question. You just give it your best shot, and if you think you got it right, you go ahead and do another question. If you didn't get enough answers, or made a joke answer, waiting is a good idea. That way, other people who want to guess have a chance. (Spot on, ChocolateRob!) But if nobody knows the answer and it has been a couple of days, it's fine just to give it your best shot and then ask another question, just to keep the game moving. After you post it, if you look it up and realize you were wrong, you can make it up to everybody by adding a funny picture or something! But don't worry about these rules. They aren't set in stone. I made them up. The goal was to make this game quick and trivial, whereas Bad Descriptions is slower and more confusing. 2
The Sovereign Posted August 21, 2015 Posted August 21, 2015 Ah, Harry Potter The Diary The Ring / Resurrection Stone The Locket The Cup The Diadem The Snake, Nagini WLIU: name all the characters of George RR Martin's A Song of Ice and Fire who have a chapter from their POV in all five books.

Quiver he/him Posted August 21, 2015 Posted August 21, 2015 Ah, Harry Potter The Diary The Ring / Resurrection Stone The Locket The Cup The Diadem The Snake, Nagini WLIU: name all the characters of George RR Martin's A Song of Ice and Fire who have a chapter from their POV in all five books. (Hint: Jon Snow is NOT one of them. He does not have a chapter in A Feast for Crows.) Hint 2: There is only one. I -THINK- it's Arya and Sansa. Ned didn't have any POV's after Game of Thrones Cat didn't have any PoV's after Sword of Storms Jon didn't have PoV's in Feast for Crows Tyrion didn't have any PoV's in Feast for Crows Dany didn't have any POV's in Feast for Crows Arya and Sana has chapters for Feast of Crows, and I think they both got one or two chapter sat the end of Dance of Dragons. I'm pretty sure the other PoV characters were all introduced in later books. Am I right or wrong?

Jivvy Posted August 21, 2015 Posted August 21, 2015 It must only be Arya then, Sansa doesn't have a PoV in A Dance with Dragons. Iron Eyes got it. So, what is your question?
Newan he/him Posted August 24, 2015 Author Posted August 24, 2015 It must only be Arya then, Sansa doesn't have a PoV in A Dance with Dragons. It's your turn, Iron Eyes
Robinski he/him Posted August 24, 2015 Posted August 24, 2015 (edited) Suggestion: How about there is a period of say 48 hours for the winner to respond, after which the honour opens up to first person in? Edited August 24, 2015 by Robinski 1
