Master Kuru, apperantly you didn't see the entire episode! Dori won both competitions by default! The hobbits were offended and refused to participate even though dummy-hobbits were being used. The Necromancer tortured his, Smaug burnt his, the trolls ate theirs, the elves imprisoned theirs, the other dwarves were arguing over who would actually do the carrying and so on and so forth...Dori tripped near the end and his hobbit dummy rolled across the finish line! When things were looking to be about the same for the tossing competiton, Glirdan Probst threw the prize in disgust and Dori picked it up. As for up-down-up a tree, that's not alacrity that's stupidity!
