Come on, there're only three women left. Instead, make it

++QUICKBEAM

Trying to trick us, making him think he's not so slow. But he is, and he doesn't get a whole lot more done than Treebeard ever did when it comes down to it. And he and Grishnakh are always getting into fights, which only hurts the tribe.

Time to get out my trusty bandwaggon! What's this?!? It's broken! What am I going to do?

++Quickbeam

Because he isn't as fast as I am!

++Lobelia

And she can't cook.

I worry that this will be said until the end. No we must get rid of her. She isn't anywhere near the woman that Eowyn and Galadriel are. :smokin:

++Lobelia

She is an old woman, with hairy feet !

Gonna stick with this till I vote for a winning party (Firefoot, consider your votes as counting for two for a while...)

++ Quickbeam

++LOBILIA she dosent stand a chanch.

Firefoot makes sense to me...

++Quickbeam

Wow. When I voted for Quickbeam, it was before firefoot posted his for quickbeam. Coincidence? I think not. I guess great minds do think alike ;)

Any of those who want to see the back of Quickbeam prepared to join me in my quest to rid the island of the chauvenistic and overbearing Eomer? If so, I will be glad to put my (revised) vote at your disposal to-Day ...

Sauce, I will join you in getting rid of Eomer tomorrow

If Quickbeam goes, you can have me as an ally.

Again.

On this game, anyway...

I'm fine with getting rid of Eomer but Quickbeam is not as big a deal to me. So for now I will stick to Lobelia but when it's time for Eomer I will be on you side.

I will do my best to defend Eomer. Though admittedly my record hasn't been great. Leave "Ride to ruin and the world's ending!" alone. I say we vote for Grishnakh, Gloin or Lobelia after

++QUICKBEAM

bites it. Testimony from:

Lobelia-"Hypocrite smashed my umbrella to pieces. It was probably his distant cousin."

Gimli-"Yeargh! I've a mind to lay my axe to the right tree."

Eomer-"We Riders tell fell tales of the peril in the palm trees..."

Let's broker a deal. We get rid of Quickbeam today, and I will join this Crusade against Eomer. Plus I'll give you 50 bucks.

Though seriously, I'm getting tired of having Eomer on the island. He thinks just because when Theoden left and left him as King of Rohan, and with Aragorn gone now he can just run everything and be an imperialistic boss.

Votes:

Lobelia- 7
Quickbeam- 6
Eomer- 1
Pippin- 1

Down with the Ent, I can't believe his name is an oxymoron, who does he think he is?

OK s'deal.

-- EOMER
++ QUICKBEAM

I too will vote

++Quickbeam

and will also help you get rid of Eomer tomorrow. Just don't expect me to vote for Lobelia - the last Islander with a little life in her, despite her age and hair.

Bullies. Attacking people is so much easier than defending them. There are so many far more worthless individuals than Eomer, like Gloin...

I need a rival candidate for tomorrow, and Lobelia is looking like a tempting option...or Pippin, Grishnakh or Gloin...where shall we pro-Eomerists rally?

If you so wish, I will abandon Eomer for Grishnakh - he is the last vestige of pure evil left on the Island, after all.

We have a deal. Riders of Rohan! Oaths you have taken! Tomorrow we slay Orcs.

Well, evict Orc.

Anguirel, I say go for Grishnakh tomorrow.

Today, however...perhaps we might avoid Eomer's extintion a bit longer if we keep Quickbeam in the game and make them deal with him first.

++Lobelia.

I wonder why she hasn't gone yet anyway.

-- Folwren

I see your logic but I charged impetuously against Quickbeam early on and probably won't back out.

However, other Eomer supportors who wouldn't have to compromise their honour are encouraged to vote for Mrs Sackville-Baggins...

++Lobelia

Yes please and thank you.

Addendum to last
 

History has been made. Honour has been invoked during discussion of (virtual) Reality TV...

Grishnakh! Grishnakh! He's the most intellegent player left. How do you send off an intelleget character that without him his tribe would be dead, because they're an oxymoron Ent and Hobbits that only like to eat food.

Can't we put forward a compromise candidate, ie Pippin, tomorrow?

PS. I will lose respect for a lot of people if Lobelia is evicted tonight.

You people are so backwards and astonishingly warped it's revolting! Grishnakh? The most intelligent player left? Loss of respect if Lobelia is gotten rid of? What is up with this liking of either wicked people, or just plain greedy/pointless people?

Come on, folks. You've got to be better than all that.

-- Folwren

That's what makes it fun? What kind of thread would this be if we all went and got rid of the bad guys and said gushed over the goodie-tooshoers.

All I know is if I had someone I would NOT want to play in a game of chess, it would be Grishnakh. The orc's a genius.

I'd still say that you're overrating his intelligence. Relative to what we see of Orcs, it's high, but he was outwitted by Pippin, after all, the fool of a Took himself...and wouldn't last a second with Galadriel...

That's only because of his upbringing. Now given the proper set of circumstances and education in his youth, I feel that Grishnakh would have been counted among the wise. But that's the most tragic part of the orc hierarchy, they denied education to all but the most elite upper echilon. It's simply heartbreaking to think of what he could have become had he not been oppressed.

Grishnakh is the most elite upper echelon, a messenger from Lugburz who knows about the Ring, obviously of importance. But he's still tricked by a pygmy with a British public school accent and a nice smile...

My vote is already cast, but clearly it can be shown that Grishnakh, if not quite the best of the lot here, is certainly a good deal more intelligent, and even more noble, than many of his fellows on the island.

Note that Grishnakh was searching for the Ring, TO TAKE TO HIS MASTER. Grishnakh is only guilty here of service as selfless as that of Samwise Gamgee, the father of all goody-goodies. Really, it's no wonder you heartless misers voted Sam off the island.

Furthermore, take note of the fact that Grishnakh is smart. He is wise enough not to take on Ugluk, wise enough to side his orks with his, in spite of personal conflict, when mutual danger threatens. He is certainly a lot better informed, and has a much better idea what is carried by a halfling.

Furthermore, Grishnakh is clearly highly trusted by Barad-dur if he is being entrusted with such dangerous missions as retrieving the Ring. His loyalty and intelligence are clearly implicated.

And if loyalty and intelligence are what gets people voted off the island, then why on earth is Grima gone?

Does he? His grand ideas ultimately lead to certain hairy footed ones running rings around him...

He has access to information, but is too much of a dolt to recognise that his victims are exploiting his knowledge. No, I'd say even Ugluk has superior brainpower to this chap...

Votings closed, expect Lobelia's departure.

Alas, the end of anyone with atleast their partial name being Baggins is rid from the island. I guess Glorfindel got tired of getting hit with her broom. I think she liked him.

Dwarves/Elves:
Galadriel
Glorfindel
Gimli
Gloin

Orc/Ents/Hobbits:
Grishnakh
Quickbeam
Merry
Pippin

Men/Wizard:
Eomer
Eowyn
Hama
