Come on, o Downers. Vote for the tedious Communist Easterling nonentity...
Yes, amusing isn't it, how any show of SUPPORT for a particular character tends to mobilize the masses against that character...

Well, it seems that we've found one of the Phantom's favourite characters. How long can even the Phantom make him last, I wonder?

I hope that doesn't happen. There is a chance that Kuru and SP will find a more logical use for their anti-elvish sentiments, and will vote for someone who truly deserves the boot, such as Amdir.

Yes, the great Amdir, an elf-lord of such great importance that nine out of ten Barrow-Downers have no clue who the little twerp is.

+ + Amdir

I'm hoping I won't have to mount an all out defense of Elrond, but if he comes under fire, I suppose I will- if I have enough time, that is.

Hmm... if all else fails perhaps I will call upon the power of the League of Extraordinary Barrow-Downers.

Fighting fire with fire? Go against Herumor and we can be safe in numbers...

Question Anguirel:

I've just been wondering: Why the sudden switch? At first you were interested in getting rid of Fuinur first, but now you go after Herumor. Not that it bothers me in the least; I'm just curious.

I'm staying off the bandwagon just for a bit to see what the Alliance of Doom does. If they come out against Elrond then I'll change my vote to Herumor and ask a few others to do the same to save Elrond. This day still has many hours left in it.

Well, you see, I recognised in Fuinur a character so boring that he'd actually prove quite difficult to evict. People just won't get excited about him, positively or negatively...

Herumor is a slightly happier medium.

Boots Hmmm . . .

Then Fuinur just might win by apathy. Perhaps I should dig up some dirt on him . . .

Slightly off-topic: I'm quite suprised to that some vote with a space between the two plusses. Sauce, Tuor, tp. Interesting . . .

Makes sense to me. Who was he again? I am prepared to endorse him as the Ultra-Alliance of DOOM's candidate for today.

+ + AMDIR

Most cunning. Trying to initiate an elf-massacre by another route. To me, to me! Down with Herumor!

Notice that Amdir is yet another king. Stop the regicides...

This time, not only were there an overabundance of Elves, there was also an overabundance of kings and queens. We can hardly avoid regicide. There are just too many of them lying around. I think it is high time we began trimming pointy ears.

Trying to recall off the top of my head, I think

++ Amdir

was Amroth's father or something like that. Characters of this extreme shadowy obscurity do tend to obfuscate the festivities.

(And the Alliance of Ultra-DOOM succumbs to a moment of phantomness... )
