Quit taking over my victory thread.

Can I vote on the earlier drafts?

Because you don't want to read the new drafts?

I guess it depends on if you plan to vote for me.

Not because I don't want to; rather because I'm impossibly lazy.

You'd probably just change my vote anyway.

Hey Utah, can mods alter the vote count on a poll?

No, we can't change the votes!  Hey - don't spread that horrible rumor!  Makes my victory seem not as awesome.

I guess you can vote how you want.

I'm pretty evenly split on what I remember. I won't vote without reading.

OK, this Thunderdome battle has about 11 hours to go...so one last bump to get some more votes.  Tell your friends to come out and vote.  Hell, tell MY friends to come out and vote...I need the Chicago voting help.

so, I just looked back at the original posting of the poll and saw it was done on 10/19 at 8:07.  

Which means 7 days have passed.

Which means that Averydoll has won.

And, to be honest, she did a way better job than I did revising her story from the initial workshop submission to the final story up for voting.  If I was a spectator in this, I probably would have voted for her story as well.

So I'd like to officially say congrats to Jessica.  Well done.  This was fun, and difficult, but definitely worth it.  Good job!

 

 

Best 2 of 3?

Actually, pretty sure it'll be open until the end of the night.  But I totally accept your defeat now!  :D

It was a close one, and a lot of fun, so yeah, we can do this again - after War.  But really, I sort of thought you would win, so I'm really glad I went ahead and paid for those extra 4 votes.

ok, then in that case, let you be Dewey, and I'll be Truman.

Just because you have easier access to a Chicago paper...

That was a tough fucking battle right there. I had a hard time choosing.
