The way this works is I will list several variations of the Sicilian and you will vote for one and try to hurt another. At the end of a certain amount of time I will eliminate some of the variations and Round 2 will start with your votes and hates counting for double the original amount. Then there will be a Round 3 and a Round 4 with your votes and hates counting for triple and quadruple the amount from Round 1. At the end one opening will be known as King of the Sicilian. Round 2 Begins (Votes count for double.)
Here is the list to choose from. Points Votes + -
Najdorf 12 8 7 1
Dragon Eliminated
Accelerated Dragon -8 6 1 5
Kan Eliminated
Pin Variation -6 5 1 4
Scheveningen 8 6 5 1
Sveshnikov 2 3 2 1
Taimanov 2 1 1 0
Classical Variation -4 2 0 2
Four Knights Eliminated
Nimzowitsch 0 0 0 0
Kalashnikov 6 3 3 0

I have just now realized I'm on a board with nothing but teenagers. Holy crap.
Keep sending in more votes to see your favorite variation crowned and the one you hate eliminated.
What is wrong with teenagers that know something about chess.
I need more votes in order to move to the next round.
