For me, Entanglement is the non-votable story I'd most like to see continued.

I want to second this, but it's not quite true.

Here's how the upper portion of my vote (that is, the part with non-votable stories I would have liked to see continued) looked like last time I voted (just over a year ago apparently)...

[] I'm Halping - 15
[] The Great Tattletale Caper - 14
[] Entanglement - 13
[] It Gets Worse - 12
[] Price of Blood - 11
[] Are You Afraid of the Dark? - 10
[] One Bad Day - 9
[] RoTH - 8
[] Greg Veder, Conquering Hero - 7

It Gets Worse and (for the moment) Price of Blood no longer belong on that list, but I stand by my top three, in that order (though they're pretty close) - among stories that already existed as of 12 months ago, anyway.

Entanglement? I seem to have forgotten, which one was that?

Entanglement is the story where there are two alternate-Earth Taylors, one with superpowers (in a world full of capes like Worm) and one without (in a world without any superpowers), and they keep switching places and winding up in one another's worlds.

Okay. Ugh. Meet the Heberts is up. (Will go up on Ao3 a little later).

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:

1) UP TO six votes. I will not count anything extra, and a write-in will likely be ignored (if I want to write a different story, I will, but at my own discretion). Suggestions are welcome, but I am under no obligation to carry them out. And just remember, the more stories I am writing, the longer it will take for your favourites to roll back around.
2) First vote is worth six points, second is worth five, and so on.
3) You can't vote twice on the same story. The voting code will count the last vote and ignore previous ones.
4) If I say "Voting is CLOSED", then this post comes up, with "Voting is OPEN" at the bottom, then you can vote again.
5) If I say "Voting will continue", it's still the same voting period. Voting has not restarted. You can not vote a second time.
6) When I have finished a few of the current fics, I will look at bringing stories back on to the list.

Vote format looks like this:

[X] Alea Iacta Est - 6
[X] I, Panacea - 5
[X] War Games - 4
[X] Recoil - 3
[X] Trump Card - 2
[X] NSW - 1

Specifically: SQUARE brackets around an X, one space, and please spell at least the first word of the name of the story properly. Number of voting points comes last. Please try to format your vote properly, so as not to confuse the vote counter.

Thank you.
