    Thanks, as always, for voting.

    And let me issue a huge welcome to our first-time voters.

    User Errors
    With people fresh to this particular voting process, and the upheaval we had recently in stories, it's understandable that glitches will creep in. Unfortunately, these do slow down the tallying process.

    Trump Card!- 3: Bluesnowman - This story does not have an exclamation mark attached, thanks.
    Hostage Situation - 6: Bluesnowman - somehow, there's a space creeping in there. Could you please re-type this when you vote next?
    Wyvern- 5: Bluesnowman ... and you need a space here, please.
    Alea Iacta Est -3: gustyeagle - needs another space, please
    Alea Iacta Est 1: vyor - needs a hyphen, please
    Alea lacta Est - 4: Ant-Man - Iacta is an upper case i, not a lower case L, please
    All Unaware - 1: Coshiua - This story has ended. I'm going to assume you meant All Alone. It thanks you.
    All Unaware - 2: Mrouz - As with Coshiua, I'm going to assume you meant All Alone. It thanks you.
    Hostage Situation- 1: Navrin - need another space there, dude.
    Meet The Heberts - 5: AntonioCC - vote counter registers 'The' as different from 'the'. Please don't capitalise the 'the'.
    MirrorVerse -3: skychan - Yup, missing space. :)
    Trump Card- 6: Sinner_sb kokuenDG - Please put a space in before the hyphen. Thank you.

    Please correct these in future.

    Thank you.

    On to the main event.


    Note that any BBcode at all around the vote will invalidate it. This includes quoting a previous vote, and applying font changes.

    Alea Iacta Est 250
    All Alone 314
    Bait & Switch 222
    Confrontation II 83
    Danny & Taylor 143
    Hostage Situation 71
    I, Panacea 368
    Junior Hero 424
    Meet the Heberts 136
    MirrorVerse 23
    NSW 439
    Nemesis 35
    One More Trigger 648
    Really Bad End 485
    Recoil 0 (684)
    Security! 173
    Slippery Slope 62
    Trump Card 394
    War Games 509
    Wyvern 332

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


    With the new influx of voters, the vote points shot up to well over 1200 this time. I can see that happening, easily.

    This time round it was Wyvern, then Alea Iacta Est, then Trump Card, then Recoil. Wyvern got nearly 200 vote points, followed by Alea Iacta Est with 150.

    Recoil came in pretty well. Still looking good.


    Anyway, thanks again for voting, and I hope you enjoy reading the stories as much as I enjoy writing them.


    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.

    By my count, Trump Card earned more votes last round than Recoil did. Went from 258 to 394, a gain of 136, while Recoil went from 565 to 684, a gain of only 119.

    My money is on One More Trigger as the next winner; it currently has a 139-point lead on War Games and it's been consistently getting 40+ votes per round over the last six rounds, while War Games has yet to get out of the 30s.

    My votes:

    [X] Meet the Heberts - 6
    [X] NSW - 5
    [X] One More Trigger - 4
    [X] I, Panacea - 3
    [X] Security! - 2
    [X] Recoil - 1



    And remember, folks, if you don't vote for Meet the Heberts you make Andrea sad.

    You wouldn't want to make Andrea sad, would you?

    :p

    You are, of course, correct. I went by memory, and you know how that goes.

    And I did say 'after both of those are done' :p

    Excuses, excuses. :p

    If anyone is curious, I've assembled a document tracking voting trends for Ack's many & varied stories here. First page tracks the total votes each story had when a given vote was concluded; second page tracks the votes gained by each story from one vote to the next. If you're curious/confused about what the color-coding means, there's a key at the bottom.

    I'll keep updating it as each vote comes in.
