LOTR Survivor - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

**The Saucepan Man** · 10-09-2005, 06:18 AM

Male/female? Schmail/Schemail. It's not so much the gender of the contestants as their characters and the tribal mix that I am concerned with.

I'd be happy to vote for either Galadriel or Glorfindel today.

Only one Elf should make the final. Both of the remaining Elves are insufferably pompous and incredibly disdainful of the other contestants, although this Galadriel-Gimli thing is becoming interesting. To keep that interest alive, I'd be inclined to vote for Glorfindel. After all, he had two stints in Middle-earth. That's more than enough exposure. He doesn't need to win Survivor too.

You turncoat !

I hope you will be doomed to spell Eowyn in all eternity !

++Glorfindel

double lynching! i think...

Eowyn- 6
Glorfindel- 6
Galadriel- 3

Folwren · 10-09-2005, 02:01 PM

Hm. Hard choice, really. I like both Eowyn and Glorfindel...

But, due to the circumstances and evidence, I think that Glorfindel should be the one to go. Why? Because, out of the two of them, Eowyn is much more fit for the Island. Consider - Glorfindel...pushed off of his horse by Arwen (who, in herself, is a wimp) ... what's that say for the male elf? I mean, come on.

Eowyn, on the other hand, is very strong...she was somewhat rebellious, yes, but that's evidently what people want around here. *ahem* But towards the end of it, she really comes around. Decides that a woman's life is not meant to be a man's and marries for love and not for dreaming.

So...only to save Eowyn, though, mind, I do like them both - ++Glorfindel

Sorry but I must change my vote again. My Galadriel push didn't work out and Glorfindel is close to leaving so he needs my help

--Galadriel
++Eowyn

Well Sauce has come up with a more general reason for voting off Glorfindel so come on people! We need an Elf gone. Let Gimli and Galadriel have a little more time together - vote Glorfindel. Galadriel voters change to Glorfindel and get rid of this bothersome know-it-all.

the guy who be short · 10-09-2005, 07:15 AM

Perhaps it would be easier to vote all three off at once and start anew?

Celuien · 10-09-2005, 08:24 AM

Ahhh, we must save Glorfindel and Galadriel!

++EOWYN

Galadriel has to stay at least as long as Gimli is here. It's not all that often that we get to hear a Dwarf flirting at all, but it's especially rare when an Elf is involved. And as for Glorfindel, I think he deserves time on the island to make up for Arwen's stealing his 15 minutes of movie fame.

Oh, and Sauce, the Elves are insufferably pompous? Let's not forget that Lizzie once made a similar mistake about Mr. Darcy. They really aren't that bad once you get to know them.
