Okay unless there are any major objections 2 hurts and 1 heal will be implemented at 4:00PM Mountain Time on March 17th.

So, we are doing minimum of 3 people between your new votes? I preferred 5 but oh well...

I do like Eowyn but she has a preposterous 18 points...

You know, I think the point is rather, that until somebody is really eliminated, it's just switching back and forth with the same number of points: the situation tends to equalize after some time. So, I think we'll see tomorrow, if we introduce this double-hurting system, how different spin the things will have...

I think it's worth reminding everyone to check the scores when they post to ensure they are correct, because there will undoubtedly be a lot more feverish cross-posting to come.

Exactly! Check your posts with the "preview mode" to be sure you are up to a real-time situation.

I included Legate's slightly offensive vote, despite moral misgivings, because I think Nogrod and Tuor overlooked it. |

Certainly, although even that does not always help - sometimes you are x-posting with somebody just on minute, and it happens that between the time you click "preview" and post, somebody else does. It happens relatively often, actually, at least to me.

I am of the Rohirrim, thank you. I could never pretend to aspire to the glory of a Warg.
I fear I must retire to bed now and when I wake up that wonderful creature will have been sacrificed.

I can start hurting Fingolfin if you won't let the Warg get past 10 points

I like the two hurts, one heal model, but there
is one other intriguing way to try at some other time: only one hurt or one heal at a time.

Tuor, but that will take probably quite long time too... or maybe not... but I think it might... and mainly, what if everybody just healed all the time, you see... the game will never end.
Mwa ha ha ha ha...

Also, I think that rather than 1 hurt or 1 heal, it should be 2 hurts or 2 heals, otherwise the game would be really slow.

Yes but I still think the 2 hurts 1 heal system is better - you see, even this thread is named Hurt AND Heal, not Hurt OR Heal...

Certainly. And, Eönwë, note what I said above - the point of this game is that you are doing two things at the same time, otherwise, it would be just about giving points to your favourite character all the time, and everybody will have 3598 points and nobody will ever die... (or, if somebody will suddenly be so brave to realise that, it will take other 3598 posts to take that one character down... which would, of course, mean condemning your own champion to death, for he will stay another 3598 points behind the others...)

I like the idea of 2 hurts, 1 heal. It would make it much more competitive and makes your choice of hurting much more important. Can the 2 hurts be spread around, or do they both have to be for the same candidate?

Let's try to cut a bit lower those heads that try to raise themselves too high before the new rules - hopefully - take place.
So hurt Hama, heal the WK. Aragorn(15) Boromir(16) The Chief Warg(9) Eowyn(16) Fingolfin(6) Gimli(15) Gamling(16) Hama(16) Samwise Gamgee(15) Sauron(10) Tom Bombadil(15) Witch-King(9) Eliminated: Haldir by mormegil Frodo by Legate of Amon Lanc Gothmog (non-balrog) by Oddwen Gothmog(Balrog) by Rikae

I thought it would be two hurts to one candidate but are there other suggestions? Two hurts for one person would really make this game going... but should we have a different choice (1+1 hurts) as well?

Tommy, Tommy, Tommy (and heal the Wiki) Aragorn(15) Boromir(15) The Chief Warg(8) Eowyn(17) Fingolfin(6) Gimli(15) Gamling(15) Hama(16) Samwise Gamgee(17) Sauron(9) Tom Bombadil(14) Witch-King(11) Eliminated: Haldir by mormegil Frodo by Legate of Amon Lanc Gothmog (non-balrog) by Oddwen Gothmog(Balrog) by Rikae I vote for 2 hurts for a single candidate per Downer. The rivalries (and briberies) would be so much more meaningful. ++TWO POINTS AT A BLOW
