Well, I'm going to go ahead and kick things off since I finished up the short arcs I hadn't played in a bit. You can always vote one category at a time, and short arcs are a great place to start.

Short Arcs

1st choice: Talos Vice
2nd choice: Murders in the RWZ Morgue

 

Posted

This is a silly question, but is the voting limited to assigned judges or is anyone allowed to vote?

As always thank you to everyone who takes the time and effort to create the arcs for us regardless of the quality.

Enjoy your day please.

Refreshed my memory on some of the lowbie arcs, and played the one I hadn't. Very tough choice, they're all good stories, but I had to go with these two.

1st: A Hero in Need... is Friend Indeed
2nd: Damage Limitation

I'm extending the voting for 2 more weeks due to the release of i19, as well as allowing some extra time into the holidays. Just don't wait until the last minute, go out and play some arcs!

The nominations were made in another, previous thread so you've missed the window to add more I'm afraid. :/

1st - Talos Vice (338380)

Best Heroic/Vigilante Arc: Task Force Mutternacht (349522)

Surprised no one else has voted for this.

Second place would have gone to Dhahabu Kingdom and the Indelible Curse of Hate, if I weren't nominated for this category.

Oh hey! The voting's been extended to January 3rd. Excellent; that means I'll probably have time to play through and vote on all of the categories!

Okay, best Hero arcs.

1st - Made to Wave the Flag (#384776)
2nd - Golden Age Secret of the Paragon Society (#344596)

And this was a *tough* category. I really wish I didn't have to choose just two.

M.A. Arcs
Intended for high level play: The Primus Trilogy (Arc #s 10931, 283821, 283825), "Freakshow U" (Arc #189073), Purification (Arc #352381, Dev's Choice! )

Yep! This is the final extension though. I'm glad votes are finally starting to come in, and I'm sure there will be enough votes by the 3rd. Keep 'em coming!
