Haha, Durelin, ahh the werewolf is all in us.

Yes GIl, it is, it is. The good old Werewolf game, which just happens to be my first and I've lasted this long!!

I thought I would have been lynched or attacked by now. But I'm not complaining.

Although there are characters much more worthy of being destroyed... er, sent home, than those who have already been voted for, I will limit myself to that list for today's vote, for the simple fact that the list is otherwise enormous.

And so I add my vote to that of Kitanna's, and consequently vote for:

++Lotho Sackville-Baggins.

The evidence against Lotho is copious, and to go into it all here would be a pointless waste of many valuable seconds of my time. So, for the three main reasons.

LOTHO IS LAZY

Being stuck in Survivor Middle-Earth (Late Third Age Edition) is bad enough, without being lazy. There are only 42 people on this island, and everybody needs to do his or her fair share of the work. Not doing so is far more than unfair, it is practically criminal. And we all know that Lotho is among the laziest of hobbits.

LOTHO IS A WHINER

Even worse than being trapped with 40 people and one lazy person is being trapped with 40 people and one whiny person. One might be able to put up with Lotho doing no work. Putting up with Lotho's incessant whining just isn't going to happen.

LOTHO HAS NO ALLIES

Even his mother was alienated when she was sent to the Lockholes. And don't go looking to Grima or Sharkey for support.

Those are the three, main, judicious reasons. Reasons for which ANY islander would be executed... I mean, sent home. But there is a fourth, overwhelming reason.

"THE PIMPLE"

Lotho Sackville-Baggins is also known to history as 'the Pimple'. Witness any teenager's loathing and disgust of this eponym, and you will see why he ought to go. Never mind baddies like Sauron, or perverts like the Wormtongue, Middle-Earth Island will be a MUCH more pleasant place without the 'the Pimple'.

++Lotho Sackville-Baggins

No mass lynching? Awww, you got my hopes up

Nilpaurion Felagund · 09-07-2005, 07:36 AM

Which Gothmog are we talking about? The winged one or the Man?

Because I'm about to vote for Bombadil, so he'd stop confusing people, when I realised Balrogs (and the Third Age Gothmog) confuse people, too.

Meanwhile, I vote for

++Frodo

Because he does nothing around the camp except mope. And, 'Sorry, but I can't carry stuff around because I'm nine-fingered.' isn't a good excuse.

Dimcollowen · 09-07-2005, 09:20 AM

well...I would have to vote ++Arwen because she is just soo dang annoying! When she isn't whining and complaing she's attempting boss every1 else around! Like just because she is an Elf she can get her way!! DO you see Galadriel doing that??? I think not!!
Oh! and another thing! She is always hanging all over Aragorn at the immunity challenges!! And that whole thing with Glorfingel!!! The worst part is when she is back at camp away from Aragorn she is constantly flirting with Legolas or Celeborn! First off she's married to Aragorn why would she even consider flirting with them?! And Secondly Celeborn is married to Galadriel get over it Arwen!!! Jeez!! I think that one of these days we are going to a cat from those 2 over him....

Boromir, is this 'book' Survivor or 'movie' Survivor?

Because if it's movie then I'm strongly considering Gothmog for obvious reasons...

Mithalwen · 09-07-2005, 11:11 AM

While there are other people I could do without - Arwen (bbok or movie) is going to have to get the vote. Unless one of the challenges involve sewing she is going to be in the chocolate teapot category of usefulness. And she is a disruptive influence. For some reason none of the guys seem to focus on the task when she is around. Also she insists on sittting alone under the one canopy the tribe have managed to rig up with their basic equipment and the basic rice rations are incompatible with her trendy diet.

She has to go.

++Arwen

I don't see why you are so down on Thranduil. Even if he wasn't thinking of the consequence of his ... err...actions, Legolas has long reached the age of discretion so I think is high time that Legolas was blamed for Legolas rather than his father.
And book Legolas is unobjectionable, only the film version is "Prince Legolas the Perpetually Confused, Officer in Charge of Stating the Blindingly Obvious and Designated Dumb Blond.
