Survivor: The Second Age

[the phantom]

Just wondering how you're going to fit Smaug's victory in Survivor: The Hobbit into this theory.

Well, what were the demographics of that game? Mostly male or female, oldies or newbies, mean or nice, etc? A different group of people is going to get you a different result.

In this game, an overabundance of members who feel threatened by people with superior talents and powers led to the crowning of a character without superior talents and powers.

See how that works?

"What do you mean, 'a character without superior talents and powers', Mister Phantom?!"

"Oh, Tar-Miriel, honey, I wasn't talking about you, I was talking about....er...Celebrian, who almost won."

"And why are you talking about her? Like blondes, do you?"

"Oh no, baby, I like the exact shade of hair yours is."

"Aw, you're so much sweeter than Ar-Pharazon."

"Of course I am. Now, let's go to my underground lair and celebrate your victory."

"Ooh, sounds like fun. Let's go."

Mwu ha ha ha!

I think he's gotten into the champagne.

I deeply respect you now. You pretty much said everything I wanted to say.

(I don't think Tar-Mirel will take kindly to your "underground lair" where four midgets were nearly killed and your cousin Barry was slain by a magical forest hermit.)

*shrugs* Oh, well.

To borrow a phrase used by tp, Lal, and Boro: MWA HA HA HA HA!

I wished WW was this easy to play. The only threat we had came from the phantom's league, and the endgame was too much for them.

Pawn reaches eighth rank, queens, checkmate. Sorry, guys, but nice try.

And I didn't even have to vote for the character I had declared I wanted to win ever since my first post. (Although I had wanted to, I have the end of classes to blame for that. )

Oh, victory is sweet, indeed. No champagne for me, thanks.

Hee hee... our finest moment.

The League could have been called upon on the final day to ensure a landslide Celebrimbor victory, but I figured too many people would whine about it and so I chose not to bring the League into it.

I think he's gotten into the champagne.

What ever are you talking about?

Whatcha doin' later, sweetie?

Sweetie? Sweetie?! I'll have you know, I'm Grunzilda, fearsome Chief Hag! See my stick? Fear its strange twisted growth!

Oh wait, that's off topic. Let's try this again.

Funny you should ask, Hot Stuff; I'm moderating Minor Works Survivor, 'at's wot I'm doin'. As well as affecting a bad British accent. Frightening, isn't it?

That's more of swearing at grammar, actually.

That crossed the line of mirth. Now you just seem like a jerk.

(You didn't call up the league...I just lost that respect for you Phantom. Weird people whining is better than them gloating and rubbing it in everyone's faces. You got into that wine before the game, didn't you?)

(P.S. Tar-Mirel ran away after seeing the smushed hand of your cousin Barry.)
