Well, that makes two of us now.


Hmm, who's this Orophir? A long lost twin of Oropher, or perhaps some distant relative of Orophin?

In any case, it is not time to vote for him today.

You know, there are some people who can make a comeback gracefully. Then there are those who just don't seem to realize when their time in the limelight is over. I'm speaking, of course, of Elrond. He wasn't a success during the previous seasons, and although they say that one should never give up, if he never wins and never gives up, that's plain folly.

To be fair, let's take a look if he did anything special during the Second Age that would stand out in his favour.

Firstly, he did some fighting. Whether violence is a way to solve conflicts, that's another question, but was there something special in that? Come on, it was the Second Age, who wouldn't have been in a battle or two? Secondly, he founded Rivendell. Well, I have mixed feelings about this. I mean, a little bling bling like Vilya and anyone could have done that. Besides, I have my doubts of his motives. Tra-la-la-lally?


The "Caveman" is not going to make it till the end anyway, so let us give the first timers a chance and get rid of those who have already proved their inadequacy to become a survivor.
