++THE LITTLE BOY

Obviously far too young to compete.

littlemanpoet · 04-16-2006, 03:09 PM

++ King Augustus Bonifacious clearly is far too full of himself and deserves death or at least banishment. Cowardly and too concerned about style instead of running a kingdom. So there.

++ The-Man-in-the-Moon

Again, a character from the canon, moonlighting in the Minor Works... Not that he's a particularly intelligent fellow, his main role in the canon being to get drunk in a fictitious version of the Prancing Pony.

What he said, but smarter.

++Man-In-The-Moon.

But if we send the Man-in-the-Moon away too soon, who's to help Roverandom when he gets into trouble?

I would much prefer to get rid of one of the Dorkins - who needs three of them, and what important purpose do they fulfill anyway? Albert is the second fattest Dorkins, and his short legs make him slow - sounds like a good choice, as he won't be able to run away from capture, right?

I'm swayed by Esty here. Blasted Dorkinses, so many of them. I smell nepotism in the works.
