That makes me feel a little better about the stupid mistake I made that will be coming up in a later question.

Lots of ways to interpret this question, since it wasn't "toughest" or "most courageous" or whatever.

How about a guy who goes on a quest just because it's the right thing to do, and he's the one who can do it?

I voted Helm's Deep because someone name dropped that answer on page 1 of this thread Plus, it's a pretty good answer too.

If davidh777 wins because of that stupid Gollum unique, I hope the Nazgul get sent after him Of course, it wasn't like that was some kind of google-needed answer. I could only think of Frodo, Bilbo, Gollum, and Sauron myself. This bodes poorly for my other reverse answers where I tried the fake-out move of picking the most obvious answer (which only works when I don't do it).

At first, I'm thinking "Crap! Only -3 " Then I remember how few people are playing and don't feel so bad

EDIT: Yes, I feared the Frodo/Sam split. Even though "heroic" is an ambiguous term, we all agreed that it was more impressive for the hobbits to be on the quest (against as opposed to super-warriors or uber-powerful wizards)

Sauron is the most heroic. If he didn't create the One Ring, there never would have been an adventure in the first place.

If anyone thinks I loaded the deck because I had the answers submitted to me, wait till you see some of my later answers.

Oh davidh777, I have a question about the reverse scoring. Since there were two uniques given for the ring question, shouldn't you get -10 and not -15? The fact that a slam was played on the other unique negates his bonus ... but doesn't negate the fact that it still was a unique answer.

Hmm, that's a good point, and I agree. I'll adjust now.

Thanks!

Saruman's head orc guy. You know if you can't remember his name, most other people probably won't either and therefore not vote for him.
