Thanks muchly, you two. Believe it or not, that one was actually harder to write than just a regular old quiz. It's kind of hard to figure out amusing language questions and answers. I thought a fun one might be a change of pace - and an easy one. (psst - anyone else who takes it - all the answers on the language quiz are 'D' )
I finished the quizzes on Dominic Monaghan and Billy Boyd. After looking through all the fan sites on those two and Orlando Bloom I can actually get 100% on the quizzes about them on various sites. I frighten myself.
Will let you guys know when I finish the others on my list. I'm starting to run out of quiz ideas, so let me know if anybody has any ideas.

I just finished doing the ‘People and Places’ quiz…first time I tried that my computer froze and I had to reboot. Didn’t realise that, when I went back to it today, it started where I’d left off. So according to the computer I took 46 days to complete the quiz! So I wonder if that gets me some sort of record – longest time taken to complete a quiz?  _________________ Pervy Nazgul Fancier and owner of Fluffy the Fell Beast |

Hey all,
I just posted two new quizzes - one on the Two Towers movie (finally!) and one on obscure characters of Gondor/the Dunedain. Since Men are my weakest point (in more ways than one ) you Men experts let me know if I made any mistakes, please. My Mora's internet access is messed up and so I didn't get to have my partner double check the accuracy of the quizzes.
Any quiz suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Hey folks - do you have any specific requests for new quizzes? I have a few hopefully diabolical ones that I will be working on soon And Scribe, thanks for dubbing me Mistress of All Things HoME. _________________ abandon thought, and let the dream descend... |

... and I've been dubbed "Sacred Keeper of the Tongue Twister " (Thanks Scribe, made me a happy bunny ). I like the Trinity of the quizzes ... three is a magic number!
Just for the record, I took that language quiz and didn't do too well ... I'm afraid I suck at anything that is not some sort of Elvish (actually, didn't do too bad with dwarvish ... it was the Men languages that messed me up !).
Echoing what Sind said ... let us know of any requests you may have.
I'm really excited to be working with Andreth and Sind ... maybe some of their knowledge will rub off on me ! _________________ ~ boe an phân pedi ‘lam dadui ~

Andreth--on the TTT movie quiz, one of the questions asked what body part the old man at Helm's Deep was missing. He's missing an eye but the quiz says leg.
Ruined my perfect score...  |

You're welcome, I'm sure you and the Sacred Keeper of the Tongue Twister will do fine and make the most of the Trinity of the Quiz. |

Hey, I'm a goddess. Cool. Daily offerings will keep me benevolent. Actually you could just leave either Boromir or Cirdan at the temple every other day and I'll be happy.

Ahhh! Crap, I missed another one. I can never find my own mistakes. When making the quizzes there's a drop down box to choose the correct answer from and I frequently highlight the wrong letter. I wondered why everyone was getting that question wrong.
Because I am a benevolent goddess I will delete your quiz attempt so that you may go back and get your deserved '10'. You may honor me with an offering of a new chapter for Cursed Queen, which your fans have been patiently waiting for. The Goddess has spoken.

And how rude of me - I almost forgot: Thank you, thank you, Sindohte and Thuriniel, for being gracious enough to volunteer to help me. I am overjoyed to have two new partners in the quiz section.  |

Well, Andreth, I would love to honor you with a new chapter, but a certain Ariashal is being uncooperative. If she had it her way, nothing would ever happen outside the bedroom.
You didn't have to delete the score--I just wanted to tell you about it! |
