Dammit. Missed a vote.

Ack said: ↑

And that's Confrontation II up, for more about the coming trainwreck between Sophia and Brian.

Man, it's been so long since I read that one I barely remember where it left off last time... still need to go re-read it.

So, Trump Card squeaked in with 11 vote points ahead of Wyvern, which will be next in line, then we've got a mess of choices, all over the thousand mark: Hostage Situation, Meet the Heberts, One More Trigger, Recoil and War Games. I can't even begin to pick it.

Wyvern is definitely locked in for the next win. Right now it looks like Recoil has squeaked past Meet the Heberts (possibly because of my missing 6-point vote for it ). Then it looks like War Games, Hostage Situation and One More Trigger.

My vote:

[X] Meet the Heberts - 6
[X] NSW - 5
[X] Danny & Taylor - 4
[X] War Games - 3
[X] One More Trigger - 2

Okay, Slippery Slope is up. Still working on Trump Card. Expect it on Tuesday (or failing that, Wednesday) night.

Voting will continue.

As usual, heavily based on my previous vote...

[] I'm Halping - 14
[] The Great Tattletale Caper - 13
[] Entanglement - 12
[] It Gets Worse - 11
[] Price of Blood - 10
[] Are You Afraid of the Dark? - 9
[] One Bad Day - 8
[] Greg Veder, Conquering Hero - 7
[X] One More Trigger - 6
[X] War Games - 5
[X] Wyvern - 4
[X] All Alone - 3 (traded with Anaja for One More Trigger)
[X] Danny & Taylor - 2
[X] Alea Iacta Est - 1
[] Confrontation II - 0
[] Hostage Situation - 0
[] I, Panacea - 0
[] MirrorVerse - 0
[] Trump Card - 0 (and for the record, yes, I'm Russian)

Not particularly interested in most of the rest, sorry - Recoil especially.
(For most* of the others I just don't recall what they're about. What were NSW and Meet the Heberts about again?)

Missed the last vote, sorry - almost missed this vote too

Took Confrontation II out of my vote for the moment, because apparently I have to catch up to it a bit. (And to others too, but I'm geniunely uncertain about this one.)
Will probably put it back later.

*) okay, both - apparently there's so few remaining stories that I ended up mentioning every single one in my post

In naked sex world, a Parahumans power is inversely proportional to how much clothing they're wearing, this has had predictable effects on the worlds culture.

Okay, so Trump Card is done and posted.

Well, not precisely. I actually wrote about 14K words for it, but that's too much, so I chopped it in half. First half has been beta'd and posted. Second half is coming up on Saturday independently of anything else I'm writing. So you get that on top. Aren't I nice.

Anyway.

Voting is CLOSED.

Thanks, as always, for voting.

Voting points this round: 1274

Announcements
Throne3d 's vote counting system is awesome.

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.

Really Bad End 185
MirrorVerse 1140
Bait & Switch 1164
Junior Hero 140
Nemesis 161
Slippery Slope 221

Afraid of the Dark [0] (Danny is an expy of John Wick. Taylor just went through the Locker. Be very afraid.)
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.)
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.)
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.)
Fuck Worm! [0] {NSFW} (A double SI, where a couple gets dropped into the Wormverse on opposite sides. Only just started.)
Greg Veder, Conquering Hero [0] {NSFW} (Greg actually gets to be the hero and get the girl. Will be short.)
I'm HALPING! [0] (Taylor has a new friend. He's a cute teenage boy, who also happens to be an Endbringer. Cue hijinks.)
It Gets Worse [0] (Taylor has a pre-emptive power designed to rain down havoc on anyone trying to harm her or anyone she cares for. Coincidences get somewhat ridiculous at times.)
One Bad Day [0] (Sophia murders Grue. Taylor murders Sophia and Madison. Lisa murders her new team leader. Amy mindwipes Vicky. It's one hell of a bad day.)
Price of Blood [0] (Taylor's power is responsible for hundreds of deaths. Shadow Stalker is now working for Coil. Things are actually looking up.)
Yet Another Way [0] (A spin-off of Another Way, where Carol killed Amy. The BBB is now out of the picture, and Marquis has managed to adopt the Dallon and Pelham kids.)

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.
EverYthiNg YoU kNow iS WroNg - The Birdcage is a luxury resort. Marquis was sandbagging. It's all a LIE, I tell you! Pure crack.
Force Projection - A sequel to my original fiction Number Two.
Hostile Takeover - Marquis had a son. He's just come back to Brockton Bay.
Identity Theft - An international freelancer needs to hide out in Brockton Bay. Guess who she looks like?
Isel - Prequel to my original fiction King's Man
Parallel - A time travel story, involving Taylor's son from after Gold Morning.
Living in Brockton Bay is Suffering - A perfect storm of bad events happens, leaving Tagg in charge of the PRT, based in Brockton Bay.
Library Blues (working title) - A massive AU where Taylor is an adult, working in the library of Winslow High. Brian is the principal, and Sophia is the head coach.
Terminal: A cancer sufferer triggers with powers. His life does not improve. News at eleven.

On to the main event.

Alea Iacta Est 789

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

That makes 13 stories in the voting list. I think I'll hold it there for the moment. I won't add any more until I've completed a few, though I might will be posting Slippery Slope alongside the regular chapters.

I'm guessing Recoil up next. Just a guess, mind you

Check out Jim Starluck 's spreadsheet 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) If you vote for a story that is not on the voting list, those point(s) will go to the story that got the least number of vote points that round.
6) [current situation] I will be pruning the list.
6a) Each voting round, I will be dropping the story that has garnered the fewest vote points for that round.
6b) That story will be removed from the voting list but not abandoned; it will keep its current total of vote points.
6c) Voting for stories that are not on the voting list will not increase their vote point totals. Those votes will instead be lost.
6d) If a story reaches the top of the list with the least amount of vote points for that round, I will update it then remove it from the list.
6e) When I have a) pruned the list to an acceptable size, and b) 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.
