13. Encountered close-up by the Fellowship, as opposed to only seen
from afar? (Let's set the distinction at roughly 10m).

Strictly speaking, within the mythology, the whole of Hithaeglir was an
artifact, raised by Melkor. But then everything could be considered
artifacts, made by the Valar or else lesser beings, and ultimately being the
creation of Ilúvatar. I do not consider a mountain an artifact in the same
manner as eg. the Elendilmir.

Yes. They trudged up its flank.

> 14. Is it Caradhras?

Yes. You win. But you would have wasted a guess if I had chosen eg.
Methedras.

That's true, but this game doesn't seem to actually END at 20
questions, so does wasting a guess make a difference? I am asking for
information here. Is there a 20 Questions rules committee?

Yes, the so-called XX Committee. We often doublecross each other.
