And then there were 2 threads... :angry-teeth:

Just when you thought things would get simpler there's 2 places to vote Mine are in the new thread anyway - and all my original votes have gone through except for the one that went to my only story (of 5) that's got through to the 2nd round :whistle:

It doesn't matter where you vote, here or there. The other thread's just for anyone who hasn't been following the competition and who don't know how to open a Document.

All my original 4 votes have got through.

Do I write in a feminine way? you're the second person to assume that this week I can assure you I'm male

 

[poohcarrot]

My apologies!

 

[poohcarrot]

But what you've got to remember is that the people voting are s-t-r-a-n-g-e.

After 3 people's votes, AEIOU is thumping Slayer 3-0, and Politics is thumping Bedtime 3-0.
Go figure!
(all the rest are 2-1/1-2)

 

[stripy_tie]

My apologies!

Nothing to apologise for Pooh

I might mutter a few words in prayer to Narrativia and offer up a cigarette in sacrifice. Can't hurt eh?

Simstars has just voted for the two with zero points, so they're off and running! :dance:

 

[Jan Van Quirm]

And I updated the Word doc just now for those who're keeping a record

Incidentally, it was a complete co-incidence

 

[Willem]

A 1
B 2
C 2
D 2
E 1
F 1
G 1
H 2

For the record, I expect the time travel one to win, but think Bedtime is the best by far, followed by Bang. None of these are mine - I've got only one in still from the three that qualified.

 

[poohcarrot]

As this is now a knockout competition, if scores are level at the end of normal time there will be a pk shootout. :dance:

 

[poohcarrot]

With less than 24 hours to go, due to voter apathy it would appear (barring a miracle) that the following stories have qualified for the quarter finals;

Pip's Baby
Hard Decisions
Politics
Untitled
Stories Fade
:clap: :clap: :clap:

However, the following matches remain tied;

Slayer v AEIOU
4th Crusade v No title
Modern Romance v Bang


If at 10:00pm (UK time) Feb 22 the stories remain tied, there will be sudden death play-offs. :dance:

(My peskies have both gone down with flu! )

 

[Quatermass]

Fine then. I'll vote. Didn't see the point with my stories voted out...
