Nothing against him, but Hama is just too minor a character (both he and Gamling are a bit out of place in this company) and so:

Oh no, somebody already noticed...

But hey, I think they are both quite cool. They are certainly not out of place! Or, they are, but that's exactly what's so interesting about it!

The whiny Frodo in the movie just makes the humiliation of him being killed almost soonest even more insulting. You have to admit - Sauron himself in the movie isn't all that wonderful.

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...

Like, what? That you just hurt or just heal? Or that you hurt for 1 and heal for 2 or vice versa? But if it's the latter and people could choose, it will be still the same - people will be equalising it as well.

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"...

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.
