Whatever could have possessed me to vote for Cirdan before? It must have been the influence of that troublesome duo of Sauron and Saruman. But now that they are gone, I see the error of my ways and will join Cirdan's defenders.

But who to vote for today, strategically speaking? I too would like to see the insufferable Gloin sent packing. However, there are now three votes for Treebeard and three for Faramir. A vote for one of them seems more likely to help Cirdan, so I don't think I can vote for Gloin...yet.

I rather like Faramir. Besides, we can't get rid of him while Eowyn is still around. There's too much of a romance subplot going on between those two. And I have to go on a trip today, so I won't be back in time to employ the retractable vote. So I will have to cast my ballot for

++TREEBEARD.

If we get him started on his preparations to return to Fangorn now, there's a chance that he'll be ready to go by the time the game is over.

But actually, from a non-linear, non-subjective viewpoint, it's more like a big ball of wibbly-wobbly, timey-wimey... stuff.
