Alienation not Naugrimation!
There is no such thing as society, and if there is it's most certainly nothing to do with me, as the great King Irvinemahtar Welshdacil did write.

Silly people...
You do realize, of course, that if there is a tie I will swoop down and change my vote to prevent a double-lynching (if for no other reason than to annoy Anguirel and keep Dori around
 ...he's so adorable when he's frustrated.)

So the Bombur/Dori ratio is now 5:5, but Kuru plans to foil it.
BUT Who will Glirdan vote for? (Assuming he can spare some time...) It seems the double-lynch descision will be in his hands, not Kuru's. It's like the 2000 presidential election! <You might have heard of it even if you aren't in the US.....> And.....If Formendacil is the Mod when Glirdan cant make it....I belive the voting has gone on since 10 PM on the 23? Even if that's the incorrect time as far as Zones, this has been in full swing for more than a day. So if Formendacil uses emergency mod powers to end this day....... ________ Equinox Last edited by Elu Ancalime; 03-03-2011 at 10:49 PM. |

I understand......I just want double eviction.........
The D.A.I.N. will speak yet! Would that be Survivor: Rulers of Middle-Earth?

Well, I will cast my vote and give Kuru a chance to cast his. I we might get another double lynch today, but who knows.
++Dori Who goes and drops a Hobbit? Honestly!? So Kuru, the fate of these islanders rests in your hands.

Oh well, you can't win them all
No change for me. You won't be getting any double evictions off me I'm afraid since it is now Dori 6 and Bombur 5...I'll leave it that way.

Day 28
Today, three people were disscussed thoroughly, and the tribe finally came to the conclusion that it would be better to get rid of Dori. "It's your fault that he got dropped on the ground and got that concussion!!" Belladonna screamed. "Not to mention all the other things you've done. I don't remember exactly what they were, but there was a lot!!" That night at tribal council:
Warg - 1 Bombur - 5 Dori - 6 So, Dori arose in anger and stomped off. Oh his way to the boat, he went through a tunnel as a short cut. The roof was so low, even he had to duck. Right when he thought he was at the end of the tunnel, he stood up and knocked himself out and put himself in a coma. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Contestants voted out: Bofur Ori Durin (The first King Under the Mountain) Nori Fundin Gandalf Nain (father of Dain) Bungo Bagins Chief of Guards Thorin Bilbo Golfimbul Carc Gollum The Master Dwalin Bifur Great Goblin Bard Azog Oin Dain Necromancer Old Took Bert Galion (Elvenking's Butler) Girion Thror (grandsire of Thorin) Bolg Elvenking Thrain (father of Thorin) Beorn Dori The remaining contestants: Dwarves/Bad Guys Balin Bombur Fili Gloin Kili Chief Warg Smaug William Tom Men/Elves/Others Elrond Eagle Lord Roac Belladonna Took Bullroarer (Bilbo's great ancestor) Day 29 starts. 13 more people. We're almost there. One more person and the last merging of the tribes will take place.

A repeat performance. Charge, me braves! Then when we've a comfortable quantity of votes we'll go for another double eviction. Hope it works this time!
++GLOIN Oh and Glirdan, there are fourteen contestants now, not thirteen, I think...

+ + Roac
Does anyone think he'd stand a chance in the finals against the Eagle Lord, Smaug, and the most feared contestant: Belladonna Took?

Your right as allways Tuor, Roac does not stand a chance. That does not mean that we need to get rid of Roac, no we need to get rid of that disgusting hobbit.
++Belladonna Took

++Belladona Took
First she's a Took and then she's Bilbo's mother, I mean to raise such an unrespectable hobbit is a crime in and of itself

I'm glad to return to see Dori gone but wait a minute!! A call to all females-why should the only female alotted to us in this story-and by name only-be voted off?
Save the she-contestant! ++Tom

With a sound like the rumblings of the later stages of the digestive processes emanating from the back end of a moose...the wrath of F.A.T. has been aroused!!!
Millions of lacivi...err, respectable and lovelorn husbands from across the fruited plain (and mountains and swamps and what have you...) are sounding the call to arms! Belladonna Took must be saved!!! And lo! They have been joined by most unexpected allies. Millions of bloodthirsty femini...err, I mean millions of outraged women tired of putting up with the exploitative patriarchy are sounding a remarkably similar call to arms! Belladonna Took must be saved!!! Behold! They have formed their own wild-eyed, radical activist group called Help All Gals (H.A.G.). The forces of H.A.G. have joined together in uneasy alliance with their husban...I mean with F.A.T. in order to save that most buxom of hobbit maidens, Belladonna Took. (R.E.A.L. F.A.T., disgruntled over its utter failure to evict the Chief Warg yesterday, is just sitting in a corner pouting and plotting their revenge, relieved that H.A.G....I mean their wives...are out of the house for awhile). Seeing an alternative has already presented itself, F.A.T. and H.A.G. hop on the bandwagon (well, at this moment it might be more like the band-little-red-wagon, but still...) ++ TOM

Of course there is a problem with the amount of women in this book, but the solution is not to give her victory. (at least not only because she is a woman) Please try not to be influenced by the gender of the contestands and choose who you really think should win frome other criterias.

Seems like I've arrived just in time. 'The famous Belladonna Took' in danger of eviction, whatever next?
You see, unlike a lot of these wannabes, Bella's already a celebrity. And doesn't it show? No camera-hogging or attention-seeking antics. Her pluckiness, spirit of adventure and insouciant cheerfulness on the island has been an inspiration to viewers. I also enjoy her interactions with the redoubtable Bullroarer, they make a great double-act and I'd like to keep them both in for the time being, for the sake of the viewers. And quite what this troll love-affair on the board says about you all I just don't know. ++TOM for goodness' sake.

Women by evicting Tom you are eviciting one of your own. Do you not know that professor Tolkien designated Tom as a woman? In Letter # 76 he stated

Odd...in my reading of Letter 76, all I see is a brief discussion of the name Gamgee and a performance of Hamlet.
For something relevant to the discussion, in Letter 355 (to a M. Gros of Dijon) he writes... Quote:
Now for Tom, on the other hand, do we really need two trolls? They’ve devastated the native sheep population of the island.

Off with Belladonna Took.
Not so much because she's female, or because she's boring, or any of the usual suspects... but simply because Kuru has predicted her victory. As the official disturber of predictions, I say that we cannot have that! ++ Belladonna, daughter of Gerontius

It is firmly believed by the creme de la creme of
Tolkien scholars that Beladonna Took was specifically added by Tolkien for his daughter Priscilla and that he may have added a curse in Gothic [said into a dictaphone] to anyone who would dare esteem Beladonna less highly then any foul creature encountered by Bilbo (see the long lost unpublished essay What Tollers really told me about the writing of The Hobbit that I didn't get around to including in my biography of him by H. Carpenter). Belladonna Took must be saved!!!

-D.A.I.N. goves continued support to Belladonna Took
-Balin set up a hinting outpost in Moria, to poach the last Balrog, and sell him to Sauron in Mordor for Rings and other riches, clearly the feelings for endangered species is absent in the Dwarven mind. Even Gimli was saddened by their faliure. The true story is, is that had Balin succeeded with Operation Black-Market-Balrog, Gimli would have found Moria in a splendour of sorts, and at home he would be welcomed to a Capitalist Erebor, and lived rich, never tithing to poor hobbits whose parents had to work to the age of 129 to keep the Beer bills paid. ++Balin ________ BUY SCALE Last edited by Elu Ancalime; 03-03-2011 at 10:50 PM. |

Sorry, Anguirel, I don't hate dwarves, just like to see them thinned out a bit. I'm sticking with Tom today. We can always hope for a tied vote!

Oh go on then.
++ BALIN Because he's a Dwarf, there are still too many Dwarves, and he has the most votes out of the Dwarfish contingent.

Finally I have some time to catch up.
++Balin 1) He's a dwarf 2) I'm bandwagoning 3) It's a pretty rotten trick to fake your death so the Fellowship thinks all the dwarves in Moria are dead. Now he's on survivor? What a creep.
