I vote for Master Zaprobo's Blogspot (unless it has won before ofc). Well anyway, its very good journal with much in the way of game related stuff and has taken years to complete and now its complete; as of duffing up Lord Recluse; I will vote for it!


He will honor his words; he will definitely carry out his actions. What he promises he will fulfill. He does not care about his bodily self, putting his life and death aside to come forward for another's troubled besiegement. He does not boast about his ability, or shamelessly extol his own virtues. - Sima Qian.

I'm totally with you on this, tho I do have to give Catz props for Heir to the flame too.

In a way it's a shame so much good stuff is out there this month, but for me BBQ gets it

Nomination: The Origin of Nucleopatra - Act 2 - Consequences

There was one particular piece of artwork I wanted to nominate (well okay, about three ), but having re-read this again it reminded me how good it was.

The story is great and it has left me looking forward to the next part, but above all I loved the differences in the characters speech styles, the description of the chase and to top it all the bit about how Rufus and Cleo fought together in the ‘60s is near perfect.

Hey, thanks for the nomination

Glad you liked the car chase, you really can't have a '70s based action type story without one

Guys... It's not votes.. It's merely nominations for entries....

Correct ... once a nomination is made, we ignore all the rest of the posts nominating the same creative. There are many factors we consider when choosing the monthly winner(s), however number of nominations isn't one of them (however, when/if popularity is considered, it is based on the posts in the thread devoted to the creative).

Good point GR, but once a piece has been nominated, the only way to express support for that piece/creator is to nominate it again Perhaps not the most accurate method but at least a good indicator of how popular a given submission is

...

Basically, popularity (when considered for the final decision, I'd imagine) comes naturally with the responses in the original thread. I mean you could bump and bump the original thread lots, if you really wanted to.
Trying to sway the final decision by nominating an entry again and again, would probably have the opposite effect, no?
