March Player's Choice: Short Arcs - Results

Another small turnout this month and so the Player's Choice will be taking an extended break to allow for some fresh authors, some new arcs, and new players to work their way into this forum. Until then, we still have some great short arcs to recognize.

One Mission Arcs

This was a very close race between the top two, with both spending almost equal time in the lead, but in the end the votes turned out with our runner up

Don't Freak (Customs Version): 384769 - @Gypsy Rose aka Arrowrose with 9 points.

and our winner
Storming Citadel #379488 by @MrCaptainMan with 10 points.

Two Mission Arcs

This was also a close race in the end with another gap of only 1 point. Our runner up

Death to Disco Arc ID 84420 @Wrong Number with 4 points.

and our winner
Becky's Revenge #60197 by @New Age Ronin with 5 points.

Three Mission Arcs

This one was a bit more of a runaway, though our runner up still edged a few votes.

PENGUIN #29205 by @Tubbius with 2 points.

and our winner
Drakule vs. The Werewolf Bikers From Hell #340316 by @LaserJesus with 8 points.

Congrats to all the winners!

I won! Awesome! Thanks to everyone who voted!

Now I feel like a dick for not getting around to play any of the arcs. Damn you work... *shakes fist*

You can always go back and play mine, LJ.

I actually played every arc in this one (which amounts to... what? less than three full-sized arcs, so I guess bragging really isn't appropriate). They were all fun, and it was very hard to select the "best." Great work, everyone, and... as always... excellent job, Bubbawheat!

Issue 17 fixes the bug with Positron's animation when he's used as a contact in AE. It's completely understandable, because the animation he performs is a bit startling lol.

However, it's slightly unfortunate for my arc Storming Citadel, as i used the animation as a story element.

The arc isn't going to be ruined by the fix; I can easily alter the ending slightly to adjust it to a more 'normal' climax.

However, since quite a few Players have commented specifically on the ending and how cool it is, it's likely in my opinion that it has played a part in the votes the arc gleaned for this.

I don't think it's fair to keep the award since I have to change an element of it which might have been crucial to my win. If my arc's lead had been massive, maybe I could live with it lol, but since it was so close, I think it should be given to the runner up.

Eco.

Ahhhh, MCM is one honorable, awesome dude.

I agree with Rose. The animation bug was just the icing on the cake, and the cake is not a lie.

Also, if I don't catch you before then, prizes will be e-mailed shortly after i17 goes live.

I fourth that motion. In the words of the bard himself, "One animation bug does not a winning arc make."

Um... Me. I dabble in Photoshop on the side.
