    Damn, can someone edit the poll or something to add a vote to Above and Beyond the Call of Duty? I was going to vote for that one as well, but I missed it in the list!

      oops...I'll remember that, and if the one vote makes a difference about it getting to the finals I'll count it

        WOW, my first contest with only one in the Prelims
        First Master, Banan-Abbot of the Nana-stary, and Arch-Nan of the Order of the Sacred Banana.

            oh well, it'd be cool if he got a 1st place tie, then he'd get double the prizes

                  I didn't mean for my story to be in the story contest yet, but I looked yesterday, and there I was with a seconded nomination already. But since I've made the finals, I'll stay with it.

                  Maybe, since my story's gonna be long, I'll split into 2-3 parts.

                    you haven't made the finals yet! The prelims go until sunday, although your story is 3rd place and will probably make it to the finals...

                      doh! I've got to learn the difference between "This poll is closed" and "You have already voted on this poll."

                      I hope I place 2nd in the finals, to garner more attention for my story's second thread. (coming somewhere around friday) I don't want to, and will not place ahead of dangerous games, which was a really good story.

                        My predictions:

                        Finalists (in order they will finish):
                        1. Above and Beyond the Call Of Duty
                        2. Patriots and Tyrants(Dangerous Games III)
                        3. The Hidden Dagger
                        4. Amy's Story
                        5. Enter the Yamato

                        Yes I don't think DGIII will win, even though it's probably the best of the five. In previous contests more recent stories have done better because they were better known. DGIII was an excellent story but (I think) was already completed when the nominations began, and was only in this one instead of the 5th because cbraund didn't want it competing with DGII.

                          I voted for both of your stories too.

                          There wasn't any arrangement, by the way.

                              Yay, I'm in the finals! But I am also taking my finals, so part II of my story will be delayed until I finish them on Tuesday.
