You are in a very close location, but the description is wrong.

*Periantar leans back against one of his favourite tree trunks - a nice solid oak, not too knobbly - and re-packs his pipe*
"Hmm, I wonder how long a thread has to remain un-responded to, to be considered vacant?"

"Hellooooo @Drifa "

*Lights his pipe, and begins to draw, lightly and thoughtfully.*
"Maybe snapdragons this season..."

Posted: **Mon May 20, 2024 2:53 pm**

"Pretty snapdragons would be a lovely addition to any garden. Hello,@Periantar! It is a great day for a pipe. The smell of the weed always makes me feel nostalgic. Mind, it has been twenty-five years since I last lit up. My old lungs needed a breather."

I believe there is no time limit for unresponded threads. Maybe a walk around the Shire will help you guess. Does anyone you know have any notable walking routes?

@Drifa
are you a sign?

Posted: **Fri May 24, 2024 9:30 pm**

@Periantar - No, not a sign. Here are the previous responses.
I am not alive.
I am not a weapon or a round magical ball.
I am not something you would typically eat.
You could eat small amounts of me. I am unsure how your stomach would react if you ate all of me.
I am mostly plant-based.
I am not Lembas.
I do contain writing.
I am not a book.
I am not a sign.

Posted: **Tue May 28, 2024 10:34 pm**

@Drifa I have to wonder if you might be a contract of employment, which would be presumably on some form of paper made from plant material, is presumably edible, but not particularly good for you, and has writing but is not a sign or a book...

Posted: **Fri May 31, 2024 10:06 am**

@Periantar - I think you are on the right path now. But no, it is not a contract of employment.

Posted: **Tue Jun 04, 2024 6:49 am**

@Drifa are you a letter from someone to someone?

Posted: **Thu Jun 06, 2024 10:13 am**

@Periantar No, not a letter.

Posted: **Mon Jun 10, 2024 11:09 pm**

@Drifa Are you contained within Bag End?

Posted: **Wed Jun 12, 2024 10:26 am**

@Periantar - I am contained within Bag End.

Posted: **Wed Jun 19, 2024 2:10 pm**

@Drifa are you the contract Bilbo signs when he agrees to be a burglar for Thorin and his kin?

Posted: **Wed Jun 19, 2024 9:07 pm**

Hello, @Turien Took! Welcome to the game!

No, I am not the contract. But that was a good guess.

Posted: **Thu Jun 20, 2024 7:20 pm**

@Drifa I thank you- this game is terribly fun! Are you Bag End's front door that bears Gandalf's mark?

I am not a contract between the dwarves and Bilbo.

Posted: **Fri Jun 21, 2024 12:49 am**

Are you the butter spread thin on too much bread, as you are mostly plantbased, and small amounts eaten from? What Bilbo refers too how he feels with the ring.

Posted: **Mon Jun 24, 2024 1:22 pm**

@Drifa are you the silver spoons? Gifted to Lobelia?

Posted: **Tue Jun 25, 2024 10:06 am**

I am not sure butter is plant-based in Bilbo's time, but no, I am not the butter. Also, if you look at the previous responses to questions, I contain writing.

Again, if you look at the previous responses, I am something you could eat, not eat with. I am not spoons.

Try again! Where are you @Periantar? You are missing out on the fun!

Posted: **Wed Jun 26, 2024 2:23 pm**

Now the 'mostly plant-based' clue doesn't match up (my hobbit mind is filled with Old Toby and cake, my knowledge of the craft of smithing and metal work is lacking), but is this possibly the One Ring?

Posted: **Wed Jun 26, 2024 3:08 pm**

Hi Turien,

You could eat small amounts of me, as I stated previously. I, for one, would not attempt to eat the Ring. It would crack my old teeth, for sure.

And, if I swallowed it whole, I'd worry what it would ring around, like Mr. Intestine. Although, invisible poop might be a hoot.

I am not the Ring.

Posted: **Wed Jun 26, 2024 4:01 pm**

@Drifa, this is scratching an itch in my brain I had almost forgotten with this guessing game. I also laughed out loud at invisible poop ha! Would the answer be a barrel of pipeweed?

Posted: **Sat Jun 29, 2024 12:57 pm**

@Turien Took - I am not a barrel of pipeweed. Try again!

Posted: **Sun Jun 30, 2024 4:57 pm**

Are you a map of Middle Earth?

Posted: **Sun Jun 30, 2024 6:01 pm**

Hi @AnsonLongbottom! Long time no see! I am, but not of Middle-earth.

Posted: **Sun Jun 30, 2024 6:10 pm**

Hi Drifa! I am officially retired as of today! Hoping to spend more time on the Plaza. Are you a map of the Lonely Mountain?

Posted: **Sun Jun 30, 2024 11:02 pm**

Oh, good for you, Anson! Congrats on such an accomplishment!

Nope, not the map of the Lonely Mountain.

Posted: **Sun Jun 30, 2024 11:11 pm**

Is it Thror's Map? (May be redundant to the last question I asked!--if so, Sorry!)

Posted: **Mon Jul 01, 2024 2:23 pm**

Nope, not Thror's Map.

Posted: **Tue Jul 02, 2024 7:12 pm**

Are you a Map of the Shire?

Posted: **Wed Jul 03, 2024 7:20 pm**

Well, I was scratching my head over this, and then a friend pointed out that even though I'm not a Hobbit, it is my birthday, and I should be generous.

Yes, @AnsonLongbottom, I am a map. But whether I am a map of the whole Shire or just the routes Bilbo liked to walk is debatable. The map in question is the one that hung in Bilbo's hall.

...He loved maps, and in his hall there hung a large one of the Country Round with all his favourite walks marked out in red ink. The Hobbit

Your up, Anson!

Posted: **Wed Jul 03, 2024 7:28 pm**

Great guess @AnsonLongbottom !! And thank you for the impressive subject for your turn, Drifa! :)

Posted: **Mon Jul 15, 2024 4:03 am**

Well done @AnsonLongbottom I just had the thought last night that @Drifa must've been a map, but you've well and truly beaten me to it there!
You turn to start a new one!

Posted: **Mon Jul 15, 2024 2:51 pm**

Great! Apologies for the delay. I thought I posted this a week ago. I must've not hit submit! Who am I?

Posted: **Mon Jul 15, 2024 10:14 pm**

Are you tall?

Posted: **Tue Jul 16, 2024 2:02 pm**

I am not described as tall, nor short.

Posted: **Tue Jul 23, 2024 10:08 pm**

@AnsonLongbottom Okay. Do you wear boots?

Posted: **Tue Aug 06, 2024 11:54 am**

@AnsonLongbottom are you of the race of Men?

Posted: **Tue Aug 06, 2024 4:49 pm**

I don't wear boots, as far as I can remember, and I am not of the race of men.

Posted: **Wed Aug 07, 2024 8:44 am**

@AnsonLongbottom
Is your race described as either tall or short?

Posted: **Wed Aug 07, 2024 6:38 pm**

I believe I am of a taller race, if I am of a race at all.

Posted: **Thu Aug 08, 2024 6:53 am**

@AnsonLongbottom are you mentioned in The Hobbit?

Posted: **Tue Aug 13, 2024 6:52 pm**

I am not described as tall or short, or as of a certain race, though I would guess I am taller rather than shorter.
I do not wear boots.
I am not mentioned in The Hobbit.

Posted: **Tue Aug 13, 2024 9:48 pm**

@AnsonLongbottom

There my pretty lady is, River-woman's daughter,
Slender as the willow-wand, clearer than the water.

Are you the River-Daughter; Goldberry?

Posted: **Wed Aug 14, 2024 4:35 pm**

Yes! Nice work, Periantar!!! I am indeed Goldberry. Your turn!

Posted: **Thu Aug 15, 2024 12:17 am**

Thank you @AnsonLongbottom a nice one indeed.

Where in M.E am I?

Posted: **Thu Aug 15, 2024 12:42 am**

Lothlorien?

Posted: **Thu Aug 15, 2024 3:59 am**

Noooooooooope

Posted: **Mon Aug 19, 2024 3:08 am**

@Aikári Salmarinian

Nope, not Lothlorien, I am some place not so hospitable.

Posted: **Tue Aug 20, 2024 12:46 am**

Ehm that lovely home of the Dwarves, Erebor?

Posted: **Tue Aug 20, 2024 2:26 am**

I like your guess. Of course, at times, Erebor has been anything but hospitable.

Where, (in the name of Arda) am I? Not in a hospitable region, and not in Erebor.
