  • I love two things: Tolkien's legendarium (The Lord of the Rings, The Hobbit, etc.) and random trivia. Here those two come together to test your knowledge of Middle-earth and the world created by JRR Tolkien.
    There is something for all fans here:
    - 10 easy questions
    - 10 moderately difficult questions
    - 10 really challenging questions

    Welcome adventurers of Middle-earth! It's time to brush up on Bilbo's great adventure. Let me know how you did and what you would like to see next!

    Number 2 is wrong. Gandalf is never considered as part of the company. He aids them at times during their journey. So your answer should actually be 14

      I think you are right. This one hasn't sat well with me since recording. Gandalf made much of the journey with the company but wasn't a contractual member. Bilbo is the "lucky-number" which would be 14 and the treasure was split 14 ways.

      Correct. Unlucky number 13 + 1 = 14.

      @@MiddleHearth well, I would say maybe on Gondor. I like that realm very much and I wouldn't mind being challenged by some trivia on it. Not that I know much about it, but I would know to what extent I ignore its history and lore and learn it in the process. I'm sure there is much I don't know. One tends to know more about the elves, I guess.
      I also like Númenor very much, although I just started learning something about it.

    Based on the movie, wasn’t Ori the youngest? So the answer to the youngest dwarves would be Kili and Ori

  • @pmg83
    @pmg83 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

    26/31 but I think the answer to question two is incorrect. Gandalf had clearly warned dwarves that if they did not hire burglar Bilbo their party size would be 13 and all the bad luck with that number. Gandalf never considered himself part of the main expedition, hence 14 (13+1) should be the correct answer, and not 15 (13+1+1). Also, Blibo's contract said, he would receive 1/14 of the treasure from Samug, not 1/15
    I forgot "Dis", "Durin's Day", "Golden Harp" and Troll names, but remembered the answer to the bonus question.

    i tend to good at the deep lore questions, names of swords, king turgon of gondolin etc, but i falter at '' what instrument does x character play''. funny, i enjoy these
    and im sure the golf thing is from the concerning hobbits chapter of the lord of the rings, the fellowship of the ring, not from the hobbit as far as i remember

      @MiddleHearth  6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I'm glad you enjoyed it! I try to get a good mix of plot details, deep lore, etc.
      And the invention of golf does come from The Hobbit (An Unexpected Party) about 25 pages in depending on your edition if you want to review it yourself.

    The amount of ppl in Thorin's company isn't there 14? Two ideas, you wouldn't count Thorin because it's His company, right? And/or Gandalf is at the table at Bilbos home and said, "you asked me to find the 14th member of the company. jw
