Most of the old threads have stuck to the original rules, so I think it should stay the same for this round. Does anyone else agree with this?
I would, also because Urwen does not seem to respond just now (although maybe she will show up still later and if so and if you have something to say to the rules, Urwen, you should say it somewhere plainly and all together summed up, so that we can know: how many nominations and how many secondings do you want people to have. Surely that is not such a big deal to post that in a few words, so that everybody can know it for sure). But still I think at least the "seconding your own nominations" really takes away the point, so that should not be done.

In any case: if Urwen insisted, and others were okay with it, about people having four nominations (and four secondings?), then the current state of things would be:

IN
Túrin
Haleth

NOMINATED
Nienor (+1)
Lalaith (+1)
Húrin (+1)
Morwen (+1)
Brandir (+1)
Barahir (+1)
Gorlim (+1)
Marach (+1)
Aerin (+1)
Andreth (+1)
Eilinel (+1)
Tuor
Huor
Hador
Emeldir
Beren

If we go by the original idea (3 nominations, 3 secondings), then the list will look like this:

IN
Túrin
Haleth

NOMINATED
Nienor (+1)
Lalaith (+1)
Húrin (+1)
Morwen (+1)
Brandir (+1)
Barahir (+1)
Gorlim (+1)
Marach (+1)
Aerin (+1)
Andreth (+1)
Tuor
Huor
Hador
Beren

And since in such a case Eilinel hasn't been nominated by anyone, Loslote would still have one seconding left (and the rest of you can check for yourselves if anything has changed for you, I think not really).

Anyway, in both cases, I ask all people to check for themselves how many nominations/secondings they have left.

This should probably be decided soon, so that we don't just get stuck on this: so let's say if a few more people post their opinion on this, we could move on. Looking at the list (with everybody having one nomination), I am somehow thinking whether the "four"-way wouldn't be better after all, in case there aren't so many people playing (as I fear a bit of ending with having players with zero secondings and each character having one vote). So what do you others say...
