aSoIaF Trivia Game

[Boaz]

Sorry, Twyin, I don't have a clue. But I do know the long list of the Ents...

Learn now the Lore of Living Creatures!
First name the four, the free peoples:
Eldest of all, the elf-children;
Dwarf the delver, dark are his houses;
Ent the earthborn, old as mountains;
Man the mortal, master of horses:
Beaver the builder, buck the leaper,
Bear bee-hunter, boar the fighter;
Hound is hungry, hare is fearful,
Eagle in eyrie, ox in pasture,
Hart horn-crownéd; hawk is swiftest,
Swan the whitest, serpent coldest...

And later, Treebeard added...

and hungry as hunters, the Hobbit children,
the laughing-folk, the little people

The giant version is kind of diminuitive, and their own is quite artsy.

giants call them woh dak nag gram "little squirrel people"

and the children call themselves those who sing the songs of the earth.

[Tywin]

Keebs has it.

[Keebs411]

Name the 5 known Mystery knights, and the 4 rumored people who could have been the Knight of The Laughing Tree

[Boaz]

Okay, Keebs... you're probably looking for mystery knights at tournaments, but I'll try and give you five and four.

1. BFS was a mystery knight at a tourney when he was only ten.

2. Dunk was a mystery knight, The Gallows Knight.

3. I'm going to guess that Prince Aemon the Dragonknight once rode as a mystery knight.

4. Garlan concealed his identity as he led the allied charge to drive Stannis from King's Landing.

5. Barristan hid his identity as Arstan Whitebeard.

And the four who could possibly be the Knight of the Laughing Tree... Lyanna, Howland, Brandon, and Eddard.

apologies for being mia. internet was down, highly annoying but they got it back up and running today

in the even i cant get on here with in 24-48 hrs of any one guessing a triva post i make feel free to cacnle it out and start a new one

And you are correct Boaz i did mean in tourneys, my apaologizing for not specifying if that did confuse any one else.

Barristan, Dunk and Aemon the Dragonknight are correct for the 1st half

and as far as the 2nd the only one i dont remeber being referenced is Brandon.

For some reason I have a really hard time Picturing BFS as a child. When he was 10 he probably already had a beard.

BFS is the new Chuck Norris for me.

[Boaz]

That reminds me of one of my favorite movies, Stand By Me.

Teddy: "Boy, you don't know nothing! Mighty Mouse is a cartoon. Superman's a real guy. There's no way a cartoon could beat up a real guy."
Vern: "Yeah, maybe you're right. It'd be a good fight, though."

[Needle]

Boaz, I think your up!

[Boaz]

Needle, my understanding of Keebs trivia requirements and his last post is that I only answered three out of the first five and three out of the second four. I admit I've not applied my brain to this thread since my last post.

[Rufio]

I think the other candidate for the Knight Of The Laughing Tree is Benjen rather than Brandon?

I don't know about the other mystery knights.

Benjen was the other who was mentioned

And Boaz had
3 of the 5
* Duncan the tall
*BFS
*Aemon the dragon knight

a hint for the last 2,
BFS exposed one in a tourny @ Oldstown, and the other compeated in tourny @ Storms end

[Boaz]

Clues are good.

[Tywin]

Okay, at Oldtown he exposed "Blackshield" who turned out to be the Bastard of the Uplands.

At Storm's End... I don't see any reference to a Mystery Knight. Here is what I found:
Tourney at Storm's End

Date:: 277AL and 280AL
The information about this tourney is problematic because some details in A Storm of Swords conflict. The author has confirmed that the outlaw Simon Toyne did not attend this tourney, he was dead at that time and the elderly Ser Barristan misremembered.
Champion: Barristan Selmy

• Rhaegar Targaryen defeated Oberyn Martell
• Rhaegar Targaryen defeated Arthur Dayne broke 12 lances (13 tilts)
• Rhaegar Targaryen defeated Steffon Baratheon
• Rhaegar Targaryen defeated Jason Mallister
• Barristan Selmy defeated Robert Baratheon
• Barristan Selmy defeated Oberyn Martell
• Barristan Selmy defeated Leyton Hightower
• Barristan Selmy defeated Jon Connington
• Barristan Selmy defeated Rhaegar Targaryen
