User Errors
Photon Alayn - please do not quote votes in your posts. I am counting votes manually; this makes my life much harder.
Please correct this in future.
Thank you.
Other Notices
Given that the QQbot problem with counting votes (ie, it can't) is still ongoing, I am going to have to ask everyone to not quote other peoples' votes (or their own) for the time being. I'm having to copy the votes manually and sort them out, and quoted votes show up unless I'm very careful. So please, don't do it for the time being? Thanks.
On to the main event.

[If you want to know which of these stories is NSFW, check the
first post of the thread..]
Trump Card looks to be the favourite for the next round. An interesting note; of all the stories, it never got one '6' vote, and still came in with 101 points this round.
Another 101-point round for it, and yes, it's the winner this time around.
After that, we have Alea Iacta Est as a possible.
It's certainly the closest; unless everyone jumps on the
Meet the Heberts bandwagon, it'll get in next round. After that, I'm thinking
I, Panacea and then
Meet the Heberts.

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. First vote is the only one that counts. QQbot 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.
Vote format looks like this:
[X] Alea Iacta Est - 6
[X] I, Panacea - 5
[X] Security! - 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.
Voting is OPEN.
