Hey, let's leave the Numenoreans alone, shall we? They have suffered enough so far and their tribe is already heavily depleted. The Second Age was, in many ways, the Age of Numenor, so it would seem only fair that at least one fo them should make the final.

None of them deserve to be in the final. Ok, it was their age, but the Numenoreans are no good, greedy, elvish wannabees. That's why there was afterall...the downfall of Numenor. Their actions caused their own defeats and their greed for longer life after they were already lived 5 times longer actually cost them. I can't even argue that the Numenoreans (like Sauron and the Witch-King) provide good viewing ratings, they're just wannabees.
Though you are making sense with Elrond I will say. Perhaps Earendil's entire family just needs wiped out. I mean let's think about it:
Elrond, along with Gandalf was the main planner for The Fellowship and the destruction of the Ring. But other than that what does he do? Also, that's in the 3rd age. He's even so lazy he sends his sons to give messages, because he doesn't want to leave.
Arwen, though beautiful, just a snobby little princess that is only the symbol of authority. She's like the Queen of England, rich, a nice title, but absolute no authority at all.
Elladan and Elrohir are just Aragorn wannabees, tagging along with the other Dunedain.
Now I know the last 3 aren't contestants, but it just shows the worthlessness of Earendil's descendants. The whole line needs to be wiped out (meaning Elros and Elrond).
