I'll third Caranthir, second Ecthelion, and nominate Haldir.

PS: I had a long debate with myself, but decided that I could not, in good concience, nominate Figwit.

Unless there's some objection, it looks like these are in:
Aredhel, Miriel, Maedhros, Nerdanel, Idril, Beleg, Maglor, Finrod Felagund,
Luthien Tinuviel, Eol, Maeglin

And since it's hard to see an elf contest without him, Feanor .

That's 12 so far. 8 more to go.

THIRD: Caranthir

TWO:, Galadriel, Elrond, Finduilas, Celebrimbor, Caranthir,
Ecthelion, Amarie, Eol, Turgon

ONE: Gil-galad, Amarië, Fingon, Voronwë, Legolas, Arwen, Curufin, Voronwë, Elu Thingol and Glorfindel, Haldir, Aegnor,

(Always assuming I haven't miscounted).

Looking ahead:
Copying Eonwe's Rules for Hurt and Heal Dwarves:
(Oops, rather late for the excellent nominating Rules)

From 20 to 7 - each player has 3 votes: 2 hurts and 1 heal. Double hurts are allowed.

From 6 to 4 - each player has 3 votes: 2 hurts and 1 heal. Double hurts ar not allowed: a player has to hurt 2 different characters and heal one, or he may use only 1 hurt and 1 heal.

When but 3 characters are left each player has either a hurt or a heal.

Wait for at least three posters to vote prior to you voting again. (I believe it was wait for four posters in the past.
Is three okay?)

When nominating contestants, each player is allowed a maximum of three nominations and three secondings.

Tuor, Voronwë should have TWO, I seconded him above. And Lúthien and Caranthir show up double in your tally.

EDIT: Forget about Lúthien, I see you fixed that. And thanks for the Rules - so did my seconding Voronwë not count?

I don't have the energy to redo all this, so unless there are strong
objections I'd say let the nominations count because...

In the words of MST3000 (if you don't know, just Google it )
