I like Dark Elves.Try to play Dark Elf Assasin :!: Good stealth, casts magic missiles, good knowledge of magic.

In general I prefer High-Elves (in ToME 2.2.7), but sometimes try a Dark elf or a Wood elf.

High Elves are too snooty, and I intrinsically dislike beigey wood colours, soo... dark!

(Play Theme, the Wood-Elves are a tougher bunch there!)

On a completely extra-gamey basis I'll answer High Elves! :) I love Tolkien's Noldor. I took my name from one of them.

But if we're talking about D&D elves (sigh...) then I like Drows best.

Yeah, I liked the Noldor as well and took my name and ancestry from them too, but in the game I play wood-elves more often, though recently I haven't played many elves anyway. In Annals of Ea, since you can actually play Noldor, I would go for them though.

I'm a luck-junkie, so I prefer high elves over dark.

I first missread the subject as asking which kind of Elvis I preferded. Then I realised what it actually said and felt rather silly. :)

Poor Elves, no-one's voting for the basic type. :P

High-elves, definitely. *pets them* (Partially the lovely stats and such, partially my inner Silmarillion geek intruding - <3 Noldor. Nerdanel, your namesake is one of my favorites.)

That's because exp penalties aren't effective. Plain elves have never been as popular as high elves in any *band.

Well, plain elves aren't the LEAST played...
In fact, half-elves are so forgotten that they aren't even on the poll. Heh.
