Hurt or Heal: Controversial Disney Topics

Post by Escapay »

I figured since Jules' Household Appliances HoH game seems to be dead in the water, that I'd start this one that I've been meaning to do for awhile...

The Rules of the Game
The basic premise of "Hurt or Heal" is similar to Survivor. Players vote off which films they don't want to survive, but the twist is they can also save films they want to keep.

For this game, we're dealing with various Controversial Disney Topics. These range from outrageous stuff like "Walt's Head Is Frozen! Really, It Is!" to "The Disney Princess Line Must Die!". In addition, there will be other well-known controversies that did occur in Disney History, such as "Fantasia Should Have Been Edited". I know there's plenty of controversial topics out there that we could cover, but for this game, I'm only randomly thinking of 20. The purpose of this Hurt or Heal is to find out which controversial topic will be considered the most controversial. So heal the one you want to see get the most controversy, and hurt the one you feel isn't controversial enough.

Each Controversial Disney Topic (CDT) starts off with 10 points. Players may choose to do one of three actions:

1. "Hurt" a CDT by deleting 2 points.
2. "Heal a CDT by adding 2 points.
3. "Hurt" a CDT by deleting 1 point, and "Heal" a CDT by adding 1 point.

Players can only take ONE action a day.
Thus, no one is allowed to get a CDT removed by "hurting" it until it's eliminated, and no one is allowed to raise a CDT's points by continually "healing" it in consecutive posts. "Day" is defined as the 24-hour period between 12:00 am and 11:59 pm in whatever timezone players reside in. Thus, a player may vote at 6:43 pm, then again at 2:18 am, and still have it considered one action a day. Players cannot take actions twice in the same day, for example: at 9:42 am and at 5:16 pm.

When a CDT reaches 0 points, it is eliminated from the game and cannot be brought back.

When a CDT reaches 20 points, no further points can be added. Points can still be taken away, then added again (i.e. 20 points to 18 points to 19 points to 20 points again), but 20 is the absolute limit.


To play the game, simply copy the list and adjust the points to reflect your action. Make sure to bold the CDT(s) you've adjusted so the next player knows what's been hurt or healed.

To re-iterate:

Players may take only ONE OF THREE Actions per day
-Hurt a CDT and subtract 2 points
-Heal a CDT and add 2 points
-Hurt a CDT for 1 point and Heal a CDT for 1 point

When a CDTreaches 0 points, it's ELIMINATED

CDT'sCANNOT exceed 20 points


So...let the healing process begin! Get out there and hurt them!

Yeah, one is still a bit off. :P

Regarding the "redub the Shrill"...

Flanger-Hanger hurt it and removed 2 points, but forgot to change the 10 points to 8.

Then jeremy88 did a combo hurt/heal (I assume, even though it says -3 when it should say -1), but still kept it at 10 points.

So it should read 7 points, not 6...

Anyway, casting my first hurt/heal...

Hurt Or Heal: Disney Controversial Topics

Post by Disney Duster »

Okay, wait, Escapay, please help me. I want to use an example to explain my confusion.

I think re-dubbing Snow White's voice is the most horrible thing to do, especially if the original isn't made available. I mean, that's changing the original film, I can't believe since everyone wants to view the way a film originally was they could be okay with this. But I'm sure you mean just re-dubbing it at all, in which case I think it's still wrong and one of the worst things to do. So does that mean I think it's the most controversial, or should get the most controversy?

And then if that's the case, does that mean I should heal it, because I think it should be the most controversial? And then, did I do it all right?:

Mike wrote:But I'm sure you mean just re-dubbing it at all,
Yep.

All the topics are controversial in that the very idea of them will send fans and non-fans in a great big fury debate over whether or not it's a good idea (or whether or not it's true, such as the "Walt's head is frozen!" one). Thus, just the very idea of re-dubbing Snow White's voice (be it in the "the film will now be presented this way for future generations" or "it's a nice novelty") will spark controversy.

Regarding how to hurt/heal, you hurt a topic if you don't think it's controversial enough to merit being the last controversial topic left, and you heal a topic if you want it to stand out as the most controversial (which is somewhat the same as getting the most controversy).

For example, I personally don't think there's much controversy in the creation of Disney's California Adventure, but I'm sure there are many theme park aficionados who can argue that the place never should have been made. Thus, if inclined, I'd hurt it rather than heal it, so it gets eliminated sooner. I'd be more likely to heal the shafting of the Vault Disney programming, as to me that would be more controversial.

Since you think the redub is absitively-posilutely wrong in every way shape and form, that likely means you think it's the most controversial, thus the "healing" of the topic is what you wanted to do.

Oh, I thought the Snow White one was more pro-redub. That's why I hurt it because I don't think it should ever re-dubbed. Anyways, looks like I know what my next option is going to be.
