First we nominate people, and then kill them off... I was hoping that we will have 20 nominees before we start healing and hurting, but we're only at 7 so far... I don't know how it will work out.

Yep! You got it!



I'm thinking of allowing each person 4 nominations and secondings, maybe then there'll be more candidates. Or stop at 15 nominees so that we can get to the actual game faster. Or both. Thoughts?

I would keep each person at 3 nominations, but increase the number of seconds to 4, since each character has to have 2 seconds...that might reach the goal at little faster...

Urwen, I'm sorry, but I don't think you can second Nienor. She's your nominee. You can still use that last seconding on someone else's nominee, though.

But no one else would do it. But let's have it a deal: I will second Aredhel...if you could convince someone to second Nienor.

It's totally up to you who you choose to second, as long as it's not your own nominee. As for convincing people - Pitch, Legate, Tuor, tp, Mnemo, and Brooke still hav nominations. You could try asking them.

Urwen, I'd trade you a seconding for Nienor against one for Ioreth. How about that?
