With all respect, sir, I think your vote did little than... nothing I think it was, hmm, just prolonging the situation, you know.

And by the way, the number of "average" points has already lifted itself - of course, as we go on and more characters drop out, the points are going to accumulate. Nowadays, some 15 or 16 points is "average", soon, 20 will be average and so on...

I think it sounds like a good idea to give the possibility to choose either two hurts or two heals.

Eönwë, your numbers don't make sense...

We could allot two hurt votes and one heal or give the option to give two heals or two hurts. What do you all think?
