: : One more question: by your definition did Feanor inherit
: : Kingship from Finwe, did Fingon inherit from Fingolfin and
: : Turgon from Fingon and Erienion Gil-galad from Turgon?

: "my definition"? You're dragging this to a dangerously personal level and that is COMPLETELY unnecessary.

I am not sure how this question is "dangerously personal". There was no intent to be derogatory or insulting in the question. I hope it was not seen in that light. I am new to the internet and not completely sure of the etiquette involved. The question was intended to be an honest query. If I should have phrased it differently please let me know. I very much enjoy the discussions on this site.
