morm, the vote was 9-8 -Durin receiving the most - (if I haven't recounted wrong 3 times). It was 9-8 with Celebrian having the most, but Mac retracted his vote for Celebrian and voted for Durin, which flips the score. (Good job Mac )

Yes, I see you all have kept with my wishes and my two dragon friends are still sitting where I left them. Now, on to business.

++Celebrian

The only reason I'm picking her over Goldberry is that I know less about the Second Age than I do about Tolkien's Minor Works. I'm so logical, it's scary.

Due to Mac, Morm, and Boro's comments I checked over the thread.

Edit: Ignore what was posted here before. I recounted again and Morm actually was right.

Unless I'm really missing something, the score should be:

Celebrian: 8
Durin: 8

This is how it went (leader bolded)

Menel > Gloin (Gloin 1)
Gil > Elbereth (Gloin 1, Elbereth 1)
Boro > Durin (Gloin 1, Elbereth 1, Durin 1)
Morm > Goldberry (Gloin 1, Elbereth 1, Durin 1, Goldberry 1)
Diamond > Goldberry (Gloin 1, Elbereth 1, Durin 1, Goldberry 2)
Reader > Celebrian (Gloin 1, Elbereth 1, Durin 1, Goldberry 2, Celebrian 1)
LMP > Gloin (Gloin 2, Elbereth 1, Durin 1, Goldberry 2, Celebrian 1)
Esty > Celebrian (Gloin 2, Elbereth 1, Durin 1, Goldberry 2, Celebrian 2)
Mac > Gimli (Gloin 2, Elbereth 1, Durin 1, Goldberry 2, Celebrian 2, Gimli 1)
Bethberry > Celebrian (Gloin 2, Elbereth 1, Durin 1, Goldberry 2, Celebrian 3, Gimli 1)
SPM > Celebrian (Gloin 2, Elbereth 1, Durin 1, Goldberry 2, Celebrian 4, Gimli 1)
Diamond < Goldberry > Celebrian (Gloin 2, Elbereth 1, Durin 1, Goldberry 1, Celebrian 5, Gimli 1)
Mac < Gimli > Celebrian (Gloin 2, Elbereth 1, Durin 1, Goldberry 1, Celebrian 6)
Kuru > Celebrian (Gloin 2, Elbereth 1, Durin 1, Goldberry 1, Celebrian 7)
Firefoot > Goldberry (Gloin 2, Elbereth 1, Durin 1, Goldberry 2, Celebrian 7)
Nogrod > Durin (Gloin 2, Elbereth 1, Durin 2, Goldberry 2, Celebrian 7)
Menel < Gloin > Durin (Gloin 1, Elbereth 1, Durin 3, Goldberry 2, Celebrian 7)
Gil < Elbereth > Celebrian (Gloin 1, Durin 3, Goldberry 2, Celebrian 8)
Glirdan > Durin (Gloin 1, Durin 4, Goldberry 2, Celebrian 8)
Firefoot < Goldberry > Durin (Gloin 1, Durin 5, Goldberry 1, Celebrian 8)
Celuien > Durin (Gloin 1, Durin 6, Goldberry 1, Celebrian 8)
Morm < Goldberry > Celebrian (Gloin 1, Durin 6, Celebrian 9)
LMP < Gloin > Durin (Durin 7, Celebrian 9)
Mac < Celebrian > Durin (Durin 8, Celebrian 8)

Edit: changed to:

So either Celebrian should have gone instead of Durin or they both should have gone.

I would suggest that everyone voting for Celebrian consider voting Goldberry instead, as I think Celebrian is techincally already gone. Just in case Wilwa decides to evict her retroactively and your votes end up counting for nothing.

No, I fear that the tally was correct, Diamond. You missed Thin's vote for Durin.

But let justice be done today!

I actually can't see the use in either remaining character in the Second Age.

The three way beauty contest between Elbereth, Goldberry, and Celebrian has to come to an end soon. Quite honestly Celebrian is the least beautiful of the three and as the mother of Arwen, just needs to go...

Is there enough support for Goldberry tomorrow? If so I will change my vote to Celebrian today to help ensure victory but we need to go for Goldberry tomorrow.

Sure, I'll vote for Goldberry tomorrow.
