Well, it's Hostage Situation (as expected), which will be followed by either Alea Iacta Est or One More Trigger (there's only 43 votes between them) then probably Wyvern. After that, I'm guessing maybe Slippery Slope and possibly Danny & Taylor.
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.

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.
Vote format looks like this:
[X] Alea Iacta Est - 6
[X] I, Panacea - 5
[X] War Games - 4
[X] Recoil - 3
[X] Hostage Situation - 2
[X] Reality Intrudes - 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.
