(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...)
Okay, okay, I was merely pointing out that 2 would be better than one. But having 2 heals would definately be more boring than having 2 hurts.

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?

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?

I vote for 2 hurts for the same person.
