Aragorn is just funny. Made me giggle. But I don't think it's really enough to pick it. Dead Marshes would work better, methinks.

And, question: Tom Huggins? I thought it was Bill Huggins. Not that it matters that much, they're both worth each other's company...

I thought they were all related. Tom, Bill and Bert. I could have just made that up though.

They certainly could have. Maybe I just don't remember. I just remember that Bill is the only one with a last name.

Anywho...

The Prancing Pony - I'd imagine there's a reek of beer and pipeweed smoke in that place.

Azog - he's an orc. Just ask Merry and Pip about orc perfumes, they'll tell you that and a good many good things besides.

Aragorn - now how many baths did you say he had during his time Rangering?

Orthanc - what do you think it smelled like before the Ents cleaned it out with fresh Isen water? Saruman's army, machines, burning Ents...

The Dead Marshes - come on, even Gollum was disgusted.

Turgon - I suppose he's one of rank, but that's giving the word a completely different meaning.

Harry Goatleaf - he's certainly not the nicest guy around, but I don't know how rank he is...

Chief Wolf - I don't really get this pick.

Tom Huggins - ahaha! Do trolls ever take baths at all?

Aule - imagine what poor Yavanna has to go through after that guy gets ut of his smithy!

Hey! I'm pretty much influencable this round, so let your thoughts rain in!

I'm now going for the choir rehersals and will be by the computer maybe an hour before the DL (about 5 hours from now) so you have ample time, and I will make my decision only around the DL if you stil want to make influence.

The Prancing Pony- Probably smells of spilled beer and hobbit-feet.
Azog- Orcs are probably smelly, right?
Aragorn- Wanders about the wilderness without changing clothes.
Orthanc- Nah. Probably kept pretty clean.
The Dead Marshes- Filled with dead, wet things.
Turgon- Perhaps a "stinky" personality.
Harry Goatleaf- Were Bree-men known for smelliness?
Chief Wolf- Smelled like dog, only worse probably.
Tom Huggins- I would guess trolls smell bad.
Aule- I'm going to say no.

The Prancing Pony is an inn in a hobbit town - I can't imagine it being too filthy or smelly.
Azog is an Orc. Enough said.
Aragorn needs more baths, but I don't know that I would say 'rank', necessarily.
Orthanc was, at one point, pretty hideous, what with all the Orcs and trees and pollution. I'd call that bit of its history rank.
The Dead Marshes fit the card, for sure.
Turgon. Really? I'm not seeing this one.
Harry Goatleaf was unsavory, perhaps, but not necessarily rank.
Chief Wolf. Wolves aren't that bad, really...I wouldn't choose this one.
Tom Huggins could work. I don't think it's the best choice, though.
Aule was a Valar. I can't imagine him being horribly rank.

There are approximately 2 more rounds of new red taters I can pass out. Few options then:

1. Recycle the played cards.
2. Make up new/additional ones.
3. After they all run out, since we're done at Round 20 just go with what's in your "hand" and there won't be any replacement red taters after round 17 or 18.
