Menel, I agree with you about too many dwarves. But I think you have the wrong one...it should be Durin to go. I mean think about what a great and fun-filled tribe that would be with Gloin and Smaug as the last two participants. That's bound to be filled with strife, animosity, and bickering...which means more money.
I mean one of this is bound to kill the other.
