As if I could pick anything other than Roland.
Elodin: "Tombs is for feckless twits who can't chew their own food. My boy's a Re'lar! He has the feck of twenty men!"
Kvothe: “Books are a poor substitute for female companionship, but they are easier to find.”
Simmon: ”It’s just ointment in case you get burned...but if you mix it with piss, it turns into candy.” Sim’s expression was deadpan. “Delicious candy.”
If Roland doesn't win, something's wrong.
This one was fairly easy, Roland of course
Well I guess I'm going to be different. I had to go with The Losers Club. How could I not!
Only the gentle are ever really strong.
i voted jack sawyer.
I agree with Jayson...definitely something wrong if he doesn't win.
Time spent with cats is never wasted.
The man in black fled across the desert.
And who followed him? That's right, The Gunslinger!!
Margaret Emmie Mackey Catoe, you are, have been, and always will be my soulmate, and I love you.
Con todo mi corazon, por todo de mis dias. And I always will, in this life and into the next.

sorry Loser Club and Jack Sawyer, I love you, I do but no one can come close to Roland.
Lalalalaaaa, lalalalaaa
Lalalalaaaa, lalalalaaa

Roland is winning by a landslide.
If we are to consider The Losers Club as group, should we not measure the Katet in the same way or how about the the whole group at Boulder Colorado?

I think there was some discussion about it in the nomination threads. and I believe some valid arguments were offered, - like, the difference in time of appearance in the book, and the necessity of differing between Roland himself and the rest. It's too late now anyway.
Ask not what bears can do for you, but what you can do for bears. (razz)
When one is in agreement with bears one is always correct. (mae)
bears are back!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Stu!
All that's left of what we were is what we have become.
Roland, of course.
Do I vote for the one with my name?!
It'll take a lot more than words and guns,
A whole lot more than riches and muscle.
The hands of the many must join as one.
And together we'll cross the river.

I voted Larry... though it was hard between him and Stu and Roland.

I'll blaspheme and say that I didn't find Roland to be that compelling of a protagonist. He seemed, to me, more of a device. The real protagonists in The Dark Tower series - again, to me - were the rest of the ka-tet.
Interesting viewpoint Pablo. Of course the opposite argument could also be made that the tet were devices to set up Roland's character development. I don't personally subscribe to either theory, but it's interesting.

I just need to decide on my yardstick so I can settle on a protagonist.
