You know how this works. Every hour each member is allowed to vote for their favourite opening. They may also vote against an opening. Healing adds 5 lives and Hurting takes away 5 lives. Each opening starts with 50 lives. Once its lives reach 0, the opening is voted off and cannot be added again. Example: Hurt King's Indian Defence, Heal The Ruy Lopez. You may also post 'Add Opening'. Example: Add Opening: Sicilian Defence. Only main openings are voted for, not variations. If you vote more than twice in one hour, the result will be the opposite to what you want. Have fun!
