I've seen and played this game on other boards and thought we'd have fun!

Here are the rules:
Everyone starts with 15 points. People either add two points (a.k.a. ++) or subtract two points (a.k.a. --) from the entries on the list. People can also add or subtract just one point if he or she chooses to do so. When an entry reaches 0, it's out of the game. You can only vote once a calendar day, and you can only vote for or against three entries per post. When half the field is gone (when 50% or more of the field is out), then people can only add one point (a.k.a. +) to entries. You can still subtract two points (or one point) with half or more of the field gone. The last thing standing wins.

Once again, in a nutshell, one set of vote (at the most daily); ++ and -- for up to three entries (- and + are also acceptable), but when half the entries are gone, + and -- (- also acceptable).

Also, by "calendar day" I mean you can post at 11:59pm your time and then again at 12:00am your time as long as you don't double post, but you of course will then have to wait to vote till 12:00am the next day.

And, don't forget to reorder the list after you vote so that people can easily see what the standings are.

For example:

Eragon ++
Islanzadi -
Blodgarm+

Eragon 17
Blodgarm 16
Arya 15
Roran 15
Brom 15
Nasuada 15
Murtagh 15
Saphira 15
Islanzadi 14

Once someone is "killed" or "eliminated," you are more than welcomed to come up with a funny explanation of how they died.

Let's start with Inheritance Cycle:
Eragon-15
Blodgarm-15
Arya-15
Roran-15
Brom-15
Nasuada-15
Murtagh-15
Saphira-15
Islanzadi-15

I'll hold my vote until others have started.

it's fine, none of those have seen action for a while. the games section is basically spam anyway.

i'm going to close this till the other one's done.
