Oh really? Why's that? As is traditional, I would rather the villains won.

I most certainly agree that the Trolls are a class act, and therefore that none should be evicted just yet. They are, as it happens, rather accomplished chefs (speciality mutton garnished with Hobbits' toes), and so fulfil a useful function within the camp.

I also agree that we should continue to thin out the Dwarves. But I would question the today's bandwagon choice of Ori. Why single out one of those who accompanied Balin on his noble, though ill-fated, Quest to reclaim Mordor? Moreover, as Glirdan points out, he was a contributor to the celebrated Book of Mazarbul. Unlike Glirdan, however,I see that as a point in his favour. As a talented writer he will no doubt publish a behind-the-scenes expose of all the goings-on on the island, which will most likely prove to be sensational - provided he stays in, that is.

So I would rather vote for his decidedly dull and stay-at-home brother who is contributing little either to the camp or in entertainment value. I mean, out of the two brothers, who would you rather see go? The adventurous one who bravely stood in vain defence of Moria and left us the account of its last days or the dull one who just stayed at home to enjoy the rewards of the Quest of Erebor (to which he contributed little) and the accompanying prestige?

So my vote goes to:
