So Firefoot it appears as though you have at least 3 now committed to helping you if you help us

I don't know why you want to get rid of someone so valiant!!! You are all insane!! He got hit with a Southron poison arrow and lived which not a whole lot of men could probably accomplish, even if they had help from a King of Numenorean descent!! You're all crazy!!!! I say be rid of Grishnahk. Not only is he getting into the food, but he's also now starting fights in the camp with others!!! He HAS to go!!!!

Getting hit with an arrow is not a sign of valour! It's a sign of good marksmanship on the part of the archer! How on earth is this an indication of Faramir possessing a sterling quality? Aragorn cured a great number of people that night, so your argument about not anyone recovering is null and void!

And if you're voting off people getting into the food, then I highly recommend Merry and Pippin. Those two can out-eat Grishnakh anyday.

Ah but what about Frodo and the Morgul blade...yet we got rid of him. Now Faramir was decent in M-E but this isn't M-E per se but rather survivor and he really doesn't do much other than try and look pretty...Legolas wanna-be if you ask me.

Sigh...this hurts...sorry, Senor Blue-Cloak, but I can't let Robin Hood bite it.

Everyone wishing to save Faramir should vote for ++PALLANDO.

I vote for ++Pallando, because I'm really bored with him. Not to save Faramir, really, but to get rid of the stupid wizard when there are lots of people against him.

Nice knowing you, Faramir, but no one likes someone who is too good at everything, not in a game like this.

If my count is correct there are 9 votes for Faramir and 6 votes for Pallando, though I expect some last minute votes to try and save Faramir as well as people chaning votes at the last minute. So I urge all who will to please vote for Faramir, let's be done with this finally. Then I will move to Treebeard.

All those who stand with me - if you have previously voted, change your vote to him! We can not let Faramir go! Not after such a long and hard struggle.

How comical to see myself allied to Folwren!

I too would like to remind people that Pallando is a useless nutter who likes painting himself blue and wandering off. No help whatsoever. Most anti-social, and all that. He's also old - we should be voting off the elderly first! They're frail and can't handle gameshow life.

Well who is taking over for Boromir today? I think he asked if Glirdan or somebody else could? If my count is correct I believe we are shipping the goody-goody Faramir off.

I'm afraid you are too late, Kath, and even if you weren't, it doesn't appear as it matters too much. If Mormegil's counting was correctly, with your vote (which doesn't count because it's twenty minutes too late) it was only eight to ten.

Mormegil...I'm sorry that you had to go off and do that. It's really sad.

Comical indeed, considering the circumstances. I did my best to save Faramir, and I didn't really care who I was voting with.

White-Hand It will give me great pleasure to fill in for Boro ...

Morm's count was correct. I checked.

Finally, after going to great lengths to stay on the Island, through means both foul and fair, Faramir is the latest to become the viewer's choice for eviction. Noble, kind and valiant he may have been in the War of the Ring but, when all was said and done, he was pretty useless on the Island.

"Bah!" he said as he boarded the boat. "Not if I found it lying on the road would I want the prize money, anyway."

Hobbits
Lobelia Sackville-Baggins
Merry
Pippin

Men and Rohan Lady
Eomer
Eowyn
Hama

Wizards
Alatar
Pallando

Dwarves
Gimli
Gloin

Elves
Galadriel
Glorfindel

Others
Quickbeam
Treebeard

Badguys
Grishnakh

Still too many in the "Men" tribe for my liking, but a promise is a promise.

++ TREEBEARD

Edit: Neither Kath's nor Glirdan's votes count. But even if they did, it would still have been 9 votes for Pallando to 10 for Faramir.
