The Hobbit Survivor - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Tuor of Gondolin · 12-01-2005, 07:30 AM

Ori, having been shockingly voted out, has apparently
been doing some research for a "tell-all" book and
has come up with some shocking revelations about
the true nature of William which may unsettle
his defenders above. Ori has uncovered some correspondence
by an Oxford professor with the opinion that the only
reason he didn't want to immediately eat the burrahobbit
was that he wasn't hungry!

Now, considering that Thorin and Company were close to
ditching Bombur when he woke up, it seems that he would
have been voted off sometime in the forest (with Bilbo
probably abstaining). So:
+ + Bombur

I think there's been enough dwarf-evicting for the time being.

++The Master

A most unappealing character.

I like him. I tend to like human rogues...alright, I tend to like rogues...I'll relinquish him when the time is right, but for now I must defend him, and Bombur and William, by a spot of bandwagonning...

--NORI, ++DURIN

++ Thorin

He gets on my nerves. And he thinks he is so superior to everyone else. No need for someone like that here. He does not play well with others.

Eonwe · 12-01-2005, 01:31 PM

Well, as my Thorin bandwagoning tactics have not seemed to be working, i will must look for an alliance.

++The Master

There is nothing so unsavory as a bad good guy!

Lalaith · 12-01-2005, 01:47 PM

Exactly. The Master is no glamorous dashing rogue, he is weak-willed, cowardly and sleazy.

Anguirel · 12-01-2005, 01:51 PM

I embrace them too; because no one else will.

Besides, the Master's one of the most representative human figures in Tolkien, and the sole representative of the merchant bourgeousie, a class from which half of me springs, the sharper, cannier half (not saying that much...) I want the Master to stay for the sake of political satire if nothing else...
