I see you all being stewed in SpM's Webs of deceit. I have no opinion on Bofur myself but come on let's think about what else Bilbo did. I really didn't want to pull out this weapon this early but I am now forced to soas we can get discussion about Bilbo underway.

He is the blasted person that wrote about Elves singing Tra-la-la-lally. Is this the kind of person we want on our Island here? He's obviously a slanderer and bigot. Then after this debasing writing he goes and lives with those whom he defaces, he's got a lot of nerve. He won't hesitate to back stab anyone to get to the top.

I want to join in but had little time to formulate an argument, so I'll go with the crowd today. Saucepan 'brainwasher' man made some good points, and we need to get rid of some Dwarves straight off anyway.

I can see that mormegil and I are going to cross swords on this thread before very long. Such slander ...

Well, it's the end of Day one and everyone decided to thin out the tribe of Dwarves. The first Dwarf to suffer the onslaught of the voters was Bofur the Untalkative. Here is some things said be the Swarven tribe: "I say, he is too quiet! We need someone who contributes positively to the tribe with ideas!! Not some quiet old fool who does nothing!!" one said. "Agreed!! Sure he helps out with the camp and the challenges, but that's it!! We need stratagey here people!! He doesn't contribute like that. Plus, his name sounds like it comes from Disney!!" (and this is where the other Dwarves look around confused and say "What in Eru's name are you talking about!?") It was an almost unanimous vote. Here's exactly the amount of votes:

Bilbo - 1
Bombut - 1
Smaug - 1
Galion - 1
Thorin - 1
Bofur - 10
Golfumbul - 1

As you see, he was quite unnumbered. Then, they all got a shock. Bofur actually spoke!! And this is what he had to say: "Good night!!" That's it!! Oh well, at least he spoke!

Contestants voted out:
Bofur

I'll have to go with Bert. He will not participate on the challenges during the day because "The doctor said he might be petrified "

Hope I'm not making a fool of myself, Bert is the Troll, right?
