Here are the rules:
- Every event starts with 10 lives.
- Each time you post, you may hurt a certain number of events (take 1 life away) and heal a certain number of events (add 1 life on).
- Events which reach 0 lives die - they may not be healed.
- You may not post twice in a row.
- You may not completely undo all changes made in the previous post (Rounds 1-3).
- You must hurt and heal distinct events.
- You must bold your changes and note them at the bottom of your post (see my example).
- I may double post in order to effect cutoffs - I will eliminate any events with life below a certain value OR a certain number of low-scoring events - whichever kills more.
- There will be multiple rounds, listed below.
- I will skip to Round 5 if the number of events left drops to 3.
- Once Round 5 begins, please respect the changes in Hurt and Heal amounts.
