...And I return. To find Elrond gone (yay) and Suaron also (???). Amandil you say? For all we know Amandil could have made the difference between the nine ships of Elendil escaping or the Dunedain and the Hope for the West being swallowed into a toilet bowel.

++Celeborn

In defense of Amandil

EDIT: Right, Diamond18. So: Celeborn, although he may have seemed like Galadriel's shadow, really wanted her to get more attention. That way, he could just sit back and eat lembas while she did all the hard work (cooking, cleaning, and saving Lorien and the War)

Amandil is a cissy.

A warning

Form said that voting for one character to protect another will only work if you come up with an additional reason to vote for the character you're voting for. I.E. if you vote for Celeborn to save Amandil, Elu, you need to state an additional case against Celeborn, rather than just a defense of Amandil.

Right, because it's so cissy to throw yourself on the mercy of the gods, who've threatened to kill you if you show your grubby human face on their shores. A'yep.

Celuien, how could I forget? Fight fire with fire...

Amandil's a sailor, which casts grave doubts on his masculinity.

His family are all useless, except Anarion.

He doesn't have any decent swords.

His title is stupid. Andunie? Sounds like a laxative.

And Amandil sounds like Amanda. Girly. Ha. Nyah.

Imagine Amandil talking to his great-great-great-children:

"So, Elendil cut down Sauron, Isildur nicked the ring, and you..."

"I got drowned." Loser!

He's obviously suicidal. He had no hope of getting to Valinor. He can't want to be on this show. Let's give him what he wants...

There. I've now uttered nine Sauce-worthy idiocies, er, I mean, cogent arguments.

Let's see if they bring home the votes...
