Vote Thread for Ack's Omake Corner

What were NSW and Meet the Heberts about again?

Click to shrink...

NSW is the lewd story about a Taylor with the power to control vibrations (cape name: Harmonic) living in an alternate universe with somewhat more liberated views on nudity and ... related subjects.

Meet the Heberts is also lewd, and from what I've heard, it focuses on Taylor's parents in some way. I haven't read it.

Slippery Slope is no longer an option for voting, unfortunately.

Why do you feel the need to rub salt in the wound?

Fun fact: if voting had been ended (rather than extended) at the initial point, Meet the Heberts would have been removed. It was january1may's 4 points for it during the extension that pushed it above Slippery Slope, causing the elimination of the latter.

Okay, Slippery Slope is up. Still working on NSW (and by that, I mean that I should have it posted in the next couple of hours).

Voting will continue until NSW is posted.

All-righty then. NSW is up.

Eighteen hours of warning was given, so let's see what shape the votes are in.

Enough to do a vote count.

Thanks, as always, for voting.

Voting points this round: 1318

Announcements
Throne3d 's vote counting system is awesome.

I will continue to trim stories off the list. Whichever story has the lowest number of vote points this round will be dropped off the list. Any votes to any stories not on the list will not be applied to any stories, on or off the list. The stories 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.

Current list of stories that have been put on the inactive list, and their vote totals:
Really Bad End 185
MirrorVerse 1140
Bait & Switch 1164
Junior Hero 140
Nemesis 161
Slippery Slope 221

User Errors:
skychan - Slippery Slope is off the voting list. Voting for it will not add to its total.

On to the main event.

Alea Iacta Est 226
All Alone 0 (1369)
Confrontation II 1233
Danny & Taylor 828
Hostage Situation 830
I, Panacea 1268
Meet the Heberts 1043
NSW 79
One More Trigger 877
Recoil 492
Trump Card 857
War Games 859
Wyvern 891

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

And that's All Alone up.

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 be posting Slippery Slope alongside the regular chapters.

Click to shrink...

Next up will be either I, Panacea or Confrontation II, then Meet the Heberts, then six stories all in the 800 range, so Cthulhu only knows which one will win out of that lot. And in the meantime, Recoil is coming up fast.

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.

Let's be honest: I miscounted. I thought All Alone was under more pressure than it actually was, and pushed Danny & Taylor down because I thought that was its main opposition.
Then I miscounted again and thought Slippery Slope was already due to be eliminated regardless of my vote (because, again, I forgot about Meet the Heberts).

Mind you, if I noticed that Meet the Heberts actually had less votes than All Alone, I would've probably repeated my previous vote's pattern, putting Meet the Heberts at 2. Which would've made it tied with Slippery Slope.
I have no idea which one would have been removed then - probably either both (which I would have preferred) or neither.
