2011 Player's Choice - For Your Consideration

Bubbawheat · 10-09-2011 03:11 PM

While I'm still not allowing people to submit their own arcs, I thought I'd make a thread where you can advertise your own arc in order to possibly solicit a nomination from someone else. If you haven't nominated an arc and aren't sure which one to nominate, check this thread first and check some out to see if they're worth nominating.

Nominations thread is here: http://tinyurl.com/2011PlayersChoice

An arc is eligible this year as long as it has been published on or after after 10/1/10 (arc ID# above 454172)

I'm surprised no one's tooted their own horn in here yet.

I would, but I've discovered my most recent arc has been quacked in newer and more exciting ways than I've heard of before. Assuming I get it fixed in time, I'll be back here, you bet.

For your consideration, the first two arcs of my big 'ol wave of new stories!

For Best Lowbie Arc: Grunty McFisterson's Two Step Guide to Winning Respect (#519044)

A good, simple fight against classic enemy groups, with a few twists to it. Along the way your new villain establishes a name in the isles as someone not to be messed with.

For Best Comedy Arc: Crime is Art and Art is Crime (#517859)

Ironic hipster artist criminals are running wild with all manner of magically devious tricks and traps... including a mad sculptor with an eye towards bringing one very dangerous statue to life. Can you stop him?

By the way, when does the contest start and what are the time windows for when "this year's arcs" must have been published between?

Bubbawheat · 10-12-2011 03:35 AM

Good point, updated OP.

Bubbawheat · 10-14-2011 07:21 PM

Eh, why not. I'm not usually one to toot my own horn, but if anyone enjoys my sense of humor my arc "Whack a Mole: Lambda Sector" #508837 by @Bubbawheat would be eligible in the comedy, short arc, or best group design. I haven't felt the need to exclude my own arcs since I have no control over the nominations or voting, I just keep track of it all. I think my personal preference would be for the short arc category.

When The Words Stop #494099

I feel this is one of my most-realized arcs, certainly the most time-consuming as it was recently re-broken (but now fixed of course). So far it's mainly just languished in four-star hell, but... I 'm hoping for better.

Zaphir · 10-19-2011 01:07 PM

Going to toot my own horn here as well -- if nothing else, getting some more plays and/or criticism on my new arc would be awesome.

For Your Consideration:

The Astral Prison -- Arc ID #524278
You awaken in a strange world with (convenient) amnesia and a massive headache. Solve a mind-bending mystery across dimensions to escape this psychic deathtrap!

Eligible for 'best hero arc'. 'Best group design' is a stretch, but who knows?!

Ankylosaur · 10-28-2011 01:28 AM

Like Zaphir, I am eager for the plays--so--toot!

Not sure it is quite worthy for best, but would love anyone's consideration of The Serpent Beyond the Horizon in my sig below...

Try out my AE Arcs! (solo friendly, canon related, & some contest winners)
| #529832 Rularularian - Heroic - 41-54 | #515140 The Serpent Beyond the Horizon - Heroic - 46-52 | #183832 Save the Diver, Save the World - Vigilante - 25-30 | #245534 Condemning Croatoa - Villainous - 25-33 | #540585 Robolution - Villainous - 25-34 |

Due to being arc slot locked for over a year I only have one arc that is eligible this year (which I was only able to make after deleting an arc with 158 plays!). It is:

A Very Special Episode #457506

It would fit into the Heroic arc, Best groups (The Injustice Legion) and maybe the Comedy. I would not call it a flat out comedy, but it has some hunor aspects to it.

Check out one of my most recent arcs:
457506 - A Very Special Episode - An abandoned TV, a missing kid's TV show host and more
416951 - The Ms. Manners Task Force - More wacky villains, Wannabes. things in poor taste
or one of my other arcs including two 2010 Player's Choice Winners and an2009 Official AE Awards Nominee for Best Original Story

Lord of Storms · 10-28-2011 06:28 PM

Ok, guess I can throw one or two in...

Once a Hero, #524193 for Custom Group (The Haunted)

and

Terra Mystika: The Nexus, #514570 for Heroic Arc (Best Custom - The Wardens is probably a stretch since they are only really in the end of the arc as allies)
