I believe Anguirel has already summed up the situation nicely.

I suppose the Beorn cause is lost

Now, the only thing I have to decide is if I want to keep my promise to go after Bolg (since said Anguirel promptly bolted ship at the first opportunity) or if I want to join mormegil and Formendacil and help wipe out a few pointy-ears!

I have no objection to losing a few Elves, but I feel obliged to point out that the Dwarves still (the initial cull notwithstanding) outnumber all other races on the Island by some considerable margin. Just something to bear in mind, particularly given that some are dead (and therefore by definition not contributing).

Although I don't expect Kuru to go along with any movement to thin their number further still.

Then how about we re-designate a couple of those Dwarves as Elves? I believe that Anguirel is a big fan of Thror and Thrain (those two are still around, right?)- therefore making them very good Feanorians-by-adoption.

Seriously, I'm in this for fun... Do not expect me to stick up for anybody.

I tend to agree with SpM. Some dwarf tossing
is clearly called for.

I'm going to let this day continue until tonight at around 10. I would have ended it last night, but I kind of got kicked off my computer just as I was going to start the cast out post.

Glirdan · 01-11-2006, 10:04 PM

After another long day of voting, it was decided that Girion was to be the one voted off. "We need to get rid of all these dead corpses! They're starting to stink!!!" That night at tribal council:

Girion - 11
Elrond - 3
Tom - 1
Thranduil - 1
Beorn - 1

With that, Girion departed. Nothing special happened, nothing out of the ordinary. He just, left.

(Sorry for the shortness of this, but I really can't think of anything for him right now)

According to my extremely complex calculations, I can predict right now that Belladonna Took is probably going to win this thing.

That being said...I'm still going to vote...

++ BOLG

He's a vile specimen of a creature...slimy, unwashed, crude, a womanizer, an alcoholic, and he eats babies!! (If that couldn't pass for the text of a political advertisement, I don't know what could).

Besides, the family activists have been calling in to the advertisers. The advertisers have, in turn, been making slightly uneasy noises to the producers. This caused the producers to squeal in terror and faint. They now desperately want to toss off one of the controversial characters as a gesture to calm down the advertisers that they won't be upsetting the viewers.

+ + The Bullroarer

He invented the game of golf.
'nuff said.
