++SAURON

1. No imagination whatsoever. With all the designs he could have used for the One Ring, what does he pick? A plain gold band with tacky poetry.

2. Speaking of poetry, what is that all about? If he really wanted to hide his ring by making it plain, why is he putting depressing verses on it. That's stupid.

3. And speaking of stupid, what kind of intelligent Dark Lord ties his existence to a piece of tacky jewelry? Just opening up vulnerability to his enemies there. What happens if he loses it or some enterprising hobbit melts it down? Not very smart.

4. The whole Numenor business. Yes, he persuaded an attack successfully, but got himself drowned in the process. Lucky for him he was able to come back. Once again, pure incompetence at Dark Lording.

Morgoth was the only real expert at being evil. Sauron is just a pale imitation. Get rid of him.
