Oooohhh!!!

I'm torn... who to vote for!! There are three very intriguing people to lambast, and I am torn as for which to rip into...

Galadriel has definitely got the most potential. She's got a history of scandal, she's a known henpecker, and I just don't like her that much...

Eowyn, on the other hand, has started to get a bandwaggon going. And while I liked Eowyn in the book, and didn't mind her in the movie, one can SO make a case out of her desertion...

And then there's Gimli. To have a go at the last remaining serious member of the Fellowship (and yes, that is a humourous dig at Merry and Pippin), is quite tempting. As is the fact that he's got the most rolling bandwaggon right now. I DO like to party, and I DO like to win...

Ah.... sweet temptations...

I did? I can't recall saying such a thing.

I wouldn't worry, though. It's not like Galadriel has any chance of being voted off. Just another hopeless cause for me to keep banging on about. And she has great potential for, er, creative use of the facts.

Reply to Sauce

No, I did not vote. I totally forgot about it after posting last. I regret not having done it. I regret not having found more recruits. But I totally forgot.

Now Eomer is gone.

What is left to continue for? If no one gives me a good reason to stay (now that he, Faramir, and Sam are gone I'll marvel if you can come up with any good reasons), then I may have to leave, too. Not that you would mind much. Perhaps I shall stay to defend Glorfindel...our last hope. Or Gimli...maybe...

Vote Eowyn

Eowyn is closed, depressive, mean to weak and pail guys with bad hair-dues, defies her king and she is a fraud. . .

The only such person she was cruel to was Grima Wormtongue, and he deserved it.

Question An idea!!!

I just got in from finishing my paper route (stupid Northern Life!!! ) and as I was doing my paper route, I was thinking...what if we did a Silmarillion Survivor? I mean come on, we all had a few good laughs and lots of fun and one bacstabbing (coughmormcough ). What would be the harm in doing a Silm Survivor? I didn't want to start it because I wanted to get your thoughts on this subject beforehand. And it would only contain those who had an important role in The Silm. Elrond and Celeborn wouldn't be in it because they didn't do a whole lot. Sauron was important and deseves another chance and Galadriel, well, we'll have to wait awhile for that.

While we're on that subject, I was also thinking that we could do a second Survivor with LOTR characters, but call it "LOTR and The Hobbit Survivor". That way, you could include Thranduil, Thorin & Co., Beor, Bard, Dain and others that were in The Hobbit and Boro could host it again, if he would like to of course. So, what say you?

Anyway, join the "Get rid of Gloin" campaign!!! A Dwarf has to go!!!!

I'm pretty sure that Boromir is/was planning a followup game. Certainly, this has proven at least as addictive as Werewolf, and a lot zanier. I know that Survivor Silm was mentioned as a followup, and I wouldn't be surprised if we saw a Survivor Hobbit...

Meanwhile, I don't think I'll work against Eowyn today. Too... easy, almost.

So, Gimli or Galadriel... To set my sights on one of those... And hey! I just realised that now that Celeborn has been voted away, there's been some romantic intrigues between these two. Who do you think was instrumental in mergine the Elf and Dwarf tribes?

Naughty, naugthy!
