Boots Hurt and Heal revisited

You remember that game we've played occasionally during the last four years or so? I want to play some more.

There have been 2 rounds of LOTR characters and one of Silmarillion characters, Hobbit characters, Ainur (non-Valar), Weapons, Dwarves, Elves, and female characters each.

THE RULES:
  • Each player has 3 nominations and 5 secondings.
  • You are not allowed to second your own nominee.
  • Characters have to be seconded twice before they get in. In other words, they need 3 votes (one of which is the nomination).

The actual game:
  • From 20 to 7 - each player has 3 votes: 2 hurts and 1 heal. Double hurts are allowed.
  • From 6 to 4 - each player has 3 votes: 2 hurts and 1 heal. Double hurts ar not allowed: a player has to hurt 2 different characters and heal one, or he may use only 1 hurt and 1 heal.
  • When but 3 characters are left each player has either a hurt or a heal.
  • Wait for at least three posters to vote prior to you voting again.

I suggest doing countries/kingdoms/geographical ares, so without further ado...

Nominating Dol Amroth, Lebennin and Dorthonion.

In:

Nominated:
Dol Amroth
Lebennin
Dorthonion

Nominations / secondings:
Agan 0/3

Please include the list of the nominees, as well as how many nominations people have left, when you nominate or second someone.

(Also, credits to G55 whose rules I shamelessly stole.)

Nah, the female one didn't end up happening. It just stalled.

Whoops. It was a time I wasn't very active so all I saw when I now scrolled through M-E Mirth was that there was a thread. If we get this one done, we could perhaps try and do it again too.

Second The Void. It's awesome.

Lebennin

Oooh, so many to choose from...

Of course I'd like to nominate the famous Hithlum, Gondolin, Doriath, etc.- but what about some of the lesser known places? Maybe Arandor, Nevrast, Arthedain, or Emerië.... *sigh* But okay, I'll restrict myself to nominating-

++Withered Heath, playground of dragons
++Region, the forest of Doriath is just named too perfectly to be left off
++Hollin, the dwarf-friendly one-time home to Celebrimbor, Galadriel, and of course Sauron & the rings of power

Nominated:
Dol Amroth
Lebennin
Dorthonion (2)
Arnor
Helcaraxe
The Void (2)
Withered Heath
Region
Hollin

Nominations / secondings:
Agan 0/2
G55 0/2
TP 0/3

Things are being slow so I suggest increasing the number of our allowed secondings to five for now, just so we might perhaps get started sooner. They have been edited to the new correct number in this post.

Dorthonion (3)

Nominated:
Dol Amroth
Lebennin
Arnor
Helcaraxe
The Void (2)
Withered Heath
Region
Hollin (2)
Himring
Tirion (2)
Lothlórien

Nominations / secondings:
Agan 0/3
G55 0/4
TP 0/5
Mac 0/3
