Think so, but hey, that still counts as one. Lathspell is new to me, who called him that?

Grima called him that. Lathspell = ill news.

Pipe

I like Galadriel, she's probably the best and most complex female character in the whole thing (apart from Ungoliant), but I'm afraid old Grandalf must take my vote here.

The crusty old pipe-smoking hippy with a sharp tongue and a knack for fireworks, he's just excellent. No wonder the flower power generation wanted him for President - we can only dream what the world might have been like had he taken up office. Man.

I mean, he's an Odinic Wanderer, how utterly cool is that? Maybe if Galadriel had left the house now and then...

Tolkien did about as good a job as is possible in conjouring up the spirit of Merlin Himself for his story, and for all we joke about him uncloaking he's an elemental being and straight from the ancient real world - a 'magic elf' as the name translates in Old Norse.

Oh my! We were so close! And now it becomes the safe LotR-run for all the fun-girls and -boys...

Andsigil and Aganzir, I'll promise to vote against your favourites from now on incessantly. And will call for others to do the same. That was a disgrace.

Party-spoilers...

Hah, if you happen to disagree on a vote? Hmm... a tough one... I'll vote for the less cute or handsome or well-known or emotionally charged...

Oh, I don't know about that. Beleg is still in this. So is Turin. Actually, that would be an extremely interesting match- best friends forced to do battle.

Well, Nogorod, you have your choice now, as I'm going opposite Aganzir this time and voting for ++Gandalf.

Unlike Lalwendë, I don't see any hippie characteristics in Gandalf, other than the fact that he has no visible means of support and always seems to live at other peoples' residences.

If I did see him as a hippie, I'd be voting for the Lady of Lorien, instead.
