So what was the decision now? Two hurts and one heal? And how to make sure everyone - fex. someone coming up here later, like two days from now - will realise the change?

Should it be declared loud and clear?

PS. I see at least Lommy's last one is only 1+1 in comparison with Legate's "corrected version"...

Bah, forgot the beef...

Yes, we need to get some more damage done or otherwise this will become boring indeed.

Maybe we can always say "two hurts Noggie, one heal Lommy" or such.

How about only Phantom gets to do the 2 hurt, 1 heal thing.

Perhaps later more people get to do it- if nominated by me, perhaps?

Objections?

Nah, I think we should just wait with it now, we certainly cannot change the rules like that all of a sudden. More people would have to agree on that, at least, or the one who started the thread coming and making it a rule.

Don't we just need to find a way to increase the hurting powers with time, so that it doesn't end up uninteresting when three in their 50s compete? I think hurt 2, heal 1 is a good idea, maybe once the field is down to 10.

How about in 24 hours from now we begin three votes maximum. You can double hurt somebody or hurt two distinct individuals. Only 1 heal per turn. The 24 hours will give a chance to hear from Bibidi to see what he thinks. I wonder how quick that will make the game end. Of course once this one ends there are so many characters that could be used we could start a new one easy enough.

I am very confused by all your strange rules. Here's another one.
Shall we award extra hurt/heal gifts to those players who succeed in dealing the death-blow to someone?
