    [X] Recoil - 2
    [X] NSW - 1

    Stats:
    I think that with last round's total, Brian & Aisha takes the record (with 501) for highest first win total, and may hold it for some time. There are only two remaining fics which haven't won yet: MirrorVerse, and Really Bad End. MirrorVerse is 44 points below 501, and will likely come out on top in three rounds (almost certainly Recoil, then One More Trigger. Aftermath might beat it by 20 points per round on average for the next three rounds, but it's a stretch.), which going by recent voting patterns, is probably not enough time for it to get 43 points. Really Bad End is 186 points below 500, which with an average points/round of about 13, would take another 15 rounds to reach. There may be more chances in future as you bring in new fics, but those are only possibilities at the moment.

    And the winner is ...


    Well, Nemesis is out there now. Please don't vote for it, but feel free to leave a comment with your vote if you think it should join the voting round. (I might be doing a second part to it soon anyway).

    Just so people know; Brian & Aisha is probably nearing the end of its effective lifespan; in the next chapter or two, I will probably run through whatever variations are possible and available, and bring it to an end. (Note that this is also likely to take some time, given that this fic isn't all that popular. So it goes. I might just write them up anyway, in an idle moment).


    Aftermath 434
    All Unaware 187
    Bait & Switch 105
    Brian & Aisha 13
    Confrontation 232
    Danny & Taylor 272
    I, Panacea 184
    Junior Hero 51
    MirrorVerse 472
    NSW 331
    One More Trigger 471
    Really Bad End 328
    Recoil 0 (519)
    Security! 100
    Trump Card 225

    [If you want to know which of these stories is NSFW, check the first post of the thread..]

    Signs point to yes.

    Recoil it is, to no-one's great surprise.

    From current trends, I would imagine One More Trigger to be next, followed by MirrorVerse.


    For anyone who hasn't voted on this thread before, the voting rules go as follows:

    Vote format looks like this:

    Thank you.

    Voting is OPEN.

    I'm confused, are these additive? Because my math says Panacea with 65 beat Recoil with 64. Don't get me wrong, I prefer Recoil, I'm just trying to figure out how voting works exactly.

    The vote totals are progressive. Whichever story has the highest vote point total when they're tallied gets updated. Then its total gets zeroed. I, Panacea beat Recoil on this round, but Recoil had a higher overall total.
