As far as who to evict, yes, Osse is probably a good choice. He's always been a problem.
But let's think carefully. This is the first time where we've been able to evict whoever we want without having to consider the task of the day. Electing Maedhros will solve the kingship task, and so we are free to evict absolutely anyone.
I would certainly vote for Osse before Curufin- the other candidate who has been getting several votes.
In the book there was a lot of hostility towards the sons of Feanor from pretty much everyone. Wouldn't you like to give the sons a chance to live a normal life? We avoided the kinslaying, and so avoided all of the hostile feelings that existed in Beleriand. I say we give the sons of Feanor a chance- the chance that the Doom of Mandos never gave them.
This is part of the Doom of Mandos-
Quote:
On the House of Feanor the wrath of the Valar lieth from the West unto the uttermost East, and upon all that will follow them it shall be laid also. Their Oath shall drive them, and yet betray them, and ever snatch away the very treasures that they have sworn to pursue. To evil end shall all things turn that they begin well...

We NEED to VOTE OFF THE DOOM OF MANDOS.
It is extremely unfair.
The Valar let Melkor loose amongst the elves, and when he influences them for the worse, they let him escape and punish the elves instead of heal them, which of course makes things worse.
And then when the elves understandably go to leave Valinor, Mandos curses them!
The elves don't do what he wants because of the stupid actions of his own kind (the Valar), and so he curses the elves for it! What an unfair, arrogant jerk!
I personally think that the Doom of Mandos needs to go.
It is not right, and it will continually cause problem after problem.
But unless everyone agrees to vote for it, I will probably have to vote for Osse to save Curufin.
Also, Aredhel might be a good choice to vote off.
If we get rid of her then there will be no Maeglin, and so he will not be captured by Morgoth and forced to reveal the location of Gondolin.
TO ALL OF YOU WHO VOTED TO EVICT CURUFIN- would you consider Aredhel as a compromise target? I'm sure you care deeply about the city of Gondolin. If we get rid of Aredhel, we could save the city.
This could be our only chance. We don't know what challenges and circumstances we will face the rest of the game. We might not get an opportunity to get rid of Maeglin or Eol before Gondolin falls.
