Thanks for all the great stories, Ack! It's really really hard to try to choose between them all. And I know there's only so much time for you to be able to work on any of them as well as everything else you've got going on, so I appreciate everything you('ve) do(ne) to keep all your fans so entertained!

Thanks, as always, for voting.

Voting points this round: 843

Announcements
Throne3d 's vote counting system is once more working well. Thanks, Throne!

It has come to my attention that I have been slacking off. I'm going to try to speed up my posting of vote stories.

Reminder: I have removed Meet the Heberts and NSW from my vote lineup. Danny & Taylor will be strictly SFW from here on in. Apologies to everyone who was voting just for those.

Novel is PUBLISHED. [Welcome to Utopia]

I'm posting it, one chapter per week, in my sig.
Link to get, if interested: https://books2read.com/u/b68xeZ
Amazon: https://www.amazon.com.au/s?k=welcome+to+utopia&ref=nb_sb_noss_2

Any votes to any stories not on the list will not be applied to any stories, on or off the list. The stories that have been taken off the list will not be abandoned, just put on hiatus until I've actually finished a significant number of stories that are actually still on the list.

MirrorVerse 1140
Bait & Switch 1164
Junior Hero 140
Nemesis 161

Afraid of the Dark [0] (Danny is an expy of John Wick. Taylor just went through the Locker. Be very afraid.)
All Alone [25] (Emma dies in the alley, so Taylor makes a new friend. Sophia Hess. But after some very bad decisions. she's all alone again. Or is she?)
Another Way [0] (Marquis beat shit out of BBB, then spent the next eight years in Boston. Now that his daughter has triggered, he's come back. She's having a ball.)
Collateral Damage [0] (Danny is the most dangerous Tinker in the world. Taylor is her father's daughter.)
Conflict [0] (It's 1980. Contessa managed to shank Eden without getting nerfed. Doctor Mother now has Eidolon's powerset, without the insecurity complex. They've got two years to prepare before Scion shows up.)
Earning Her Stripes [0] (Sophia has gotten three power vials. Emma and Madison took two, and they're aiming to make Taylor into a villain with the third.)
Entanglement [0] (Taylor has her bug powers. However, she is now randomly body-swapping with a Taylor from an Earth without super-powers. Both are rather confused.)

A Friend At Winslow - Non-Taylor-centric, but involving Taylor.
The Centre Cannot Hold - Taylor gets a really weird power, and makes full use of it. Crack.
Dinah Alcott, Ruler of the World - Exactly what it says on the tin.

User Errors:
1oldman - I, Panacea wasn't spelled correctly. I have entered your vote manually.
jerryrice88 Snake/Eater - you need hyphens in your votes, otherwise they don't get registered. I have entered them manually.

On to the main event.

Alea Iacta Est 125
Danny & Taylor 345
Hostage Situation 466
I, Panacea 496
One More Trigger 348
Reality Intrudes 718
Recoil 415
Slippery Slope 287
War Games 748
Wyvern 0 (811)

Well, that came pretty close. I guess we can tell what's coming up next: War Games, then Reality Intrudes. The most impressive jump this time around was Recoil, which went from 257 to 415 in one go. If it keeps this up, it may well be third in line after Reality Intrudes.


Check out Sleepyfoo for a reasonable prediction.


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.

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.

Predictions:
Vote 174: War Games by 69 Votes
Vote 175: Reality Intrudes by 57 Votes
Vote 176: I, Panacea by 19 Votes
Vote 177: Recoil by 212 Votes
Vote 178: Hostage Situation by 93 Votes
Vote 179: One More Trigger by 81 Votes
Vote 180: Wyvern by 5 Votes
Vote 181: Alea Iacta Est by 326 Votes
Vote 182: I, Panacea by 7 Votes
Vote 183: Recoil by 181 Votes

I, Panacea has lost it's leads for both 176 and 182, Recoil might over take it in both places. Also Wyvern at 180 is in similarly shaky ground. Winning vote counts seem to be hanging out around 800, and based on the 62 Slippery Slope got, it will take spot 182, so those last 3 are very uncertain at this time.
