[Games] Heaven, Hell, Purgatory: A Blessing and a Curse
Rachel Shaina posted two H/H/P games, and I thought I'd put my own spin on it!
The rules:
Take your 2 favourite names from Purgatory and put them in HEAVEN.
Take your 2 LEAST favourite names from Purgatory and put them in HELL.
Take a name you hate from Heaven and put it in PURGATORY.
Take a name you like from Hell and put it in PURGATORY
Bless one name in HEAVEN to prevent it from being moved to PURGATORY the turn after.
Curse one name in HELL to prevent it from being moved to PURGATORY the turn after.
When there are no names left in PURGATORY, eliminate your least favorite name in HEAVEN and your favorite name in HELL until only one remains in each division. If we get stuck with one name in PURGATORY near the end, move it to HEAVEN or HELL and let the elimination begin in the next turn.

HELL:
"Holding fast". There is just something about those two words, that make it a strong phrase. It’s not desperate or struggling like ‘holding on’. It’s like an 'I’m not slowing my pace down despite what has happened’ phrase.

(edit: did I do this wrong? In the other games the first response has 2 in heaven and 2 in hell, but if you have to add 2 and then take 1 out and you're the first person, shouldn't there only be one in each?)

The first player just puts 2 in heaven and 2 in hell, and the game picks up with the next post.

(NOT PART OF THE GAME) The blessing and curse are off the next turn.
So remove the brackets around Howard and Wilkie.
