 I've considered voting for the mewlips before, but I think the entire Mr. Bliss cast ought to go first. Just because I've never read the book and can't imagine it's any good if it's no better than Roverandom. So.....sine a vote has already been cast in that direction:++ TEDDY |

End of Day the Ninth
The defense of the Man-in-the-Moon waned on the ninth day, allowing a sneak attack by his staunchest detractors:
Man-in-the-Moon: 3 votes The Barrow-wight: 2 votes Teddy: 2 votes The Mewlips: 1 vote And so, the Man-in-the-Moon came down too soon, got spectacularly drunk, and staggered off into the deep jungle, never to be heard from again. Day the Tenth finds 39 remaining contestants: Farmer Giles of Ham Ægidius Ahenobarbus Julius Agricola de Hammo (Farmer Giles of Ham) Gram, his dog The Giant from the Wild Hills King Augustus Bonifacious Chrysophylax Dives The Miller The Parson Sunny Sam (Fabricius Cunctator) The Blacksmith Smith of Wooton Major/Leaf By Niggle Master Cook Rider Alf the Prentice, King of Faerie Smith of Wooton Major Nell Queen of Faerie Niggle Mr. Parish The Adventures of Tom Bombadil (Poems) Goldberry Badger Old Man Willow The Barrow-wight Goodman Maggott Princess Mee Fíriel The Mewlips Troll Roverandom Roverandom The Wizard Artaxerxes The Little Boy Mew, the Seagull Moon-dog Mer-dog Uin, the Whale Mr. Bliss Girabbit Mr. Day Archie Teddy Bruno Herbert Dorkins Egbert Dorkins Sergeant Boffin

Do I hear some celebrating? Yes I do! And it's coming from the Formendacil in the crowd...
Anyway, I love seeing my chosen candidate voted off. Considering my oft-contrary tactic of voting, it's sometimes been a rather rare event. And the veterans of Suvivor: The Second Age can attest to my habit of gloating after a particularly successful day. (Galadriel, anyone? )Now, how to repeat this delightful event. How about... ++ Sergeant Boffin A transplanted Hobbit if I've ever seen the name of one. "Boffin"? Really, we should send him back to where he belongs: the Legendarium.

Sounds like a horrible evolutionary mistake. Imagine the myximatosis or however you spell it long necked leaf-eating rabbits could transmit...

 Still on the anti-Mr Bliss trail I see, Ang. What do you have against the book? I do so hate voting for characters that I know nothing of (by far the majority in this game), so I shall go back to petitioning for the eviction of that troublesome neighbour ... + + MR PARISH

I fear what I don't know. And I denigrate what I don't read.
I want to become a member of the literary establishment, y'know, so I haven't any choice...
