Hehehehe...
Might help to remember that this IS "Middle-Earth Mirth", where crazy is the law, and the more wacky, far-out, and totally nonsensical you can be, while still maintaining some tangible links to Middle-Earth, is the best way to go.
For example, if I had been trying to get my favourite characters (in a serious not a mirthy way) to win, Gandalf, Bilbo, Aragorn, and Elrond, and yes, even Faramir, would have been fought FOR, rather than championing the unlikely Grishnakh.
For what it's worth, it's a great deal more fun to roam around this game taking potshots at the favourite of the day (which has been Eomer for the last few days) than trying to defend them. The thing about attacking is that you get to make hilarious, outrageous charges, taking everything out of context and shredding a perfectly legit reputation. (Or vice versa in the case of the Baddies.
)
When defending, you get all the boring tasks, like stating why so and so was so nice- basically quoting the book, and leaving it at that.
And on that note....
Eomer is a name-caller. Look at his cavalier treatment of Aragorn when he enters Rohan! "Wingfoot I name you" he says. Wingfoot, as any discerning person can tell, is a most girly name, and quite unsuited to the future King of Gondor and Arnor, and should properly have been applied to Legolas (there! Eomer is also blind). What's more, it's clearly a veiled reference to the Greek god Hermes, and that's most insulting! How would YOU like to be compared with a naked guy in sandals?
