A solid vote for Smee here. I think this one stands out from the crowd. |

I agree with Time Before, standing head and shoulders over the other competitors. |

This is really a tough one.
On sheer quality standard, regularity of updates and ability to keep multiple threads running in a consistent framework, Smee comes up trumps.
However, my original nomination went to Final Death. He has a wonderfully indepth plot that seems to appeal to my twisty nature. When you look at the nature of the riddles set, and the prophecies given, together with the map, it all adds up to a grand tale of an epic nature.
And, because I'd like to see him come back and finish it at some point, I'm still going to vote for it this time around. :D |

Though I find Smee's tale wonderfully immersive, the Stoatly one's Shadows of the Mind constantly grips me, and I find myself thinking very strongly about the progress the story is making. As Shady knows from my moaning, I was annoyed at how the last poll turned out, and this is a testament to how I value the story and it's characters. :D |

Cast my vote for Eango. The author has done a fantastic job writing this tale despite (or perhaps because of ;) ) the players moving the character in a vastly different direction from the original intent. A true triumph of the storygame that can only be generated from the interactivity of the players along with the creative mind of the author. |

Smee deserves this vote I think. To be able to tell a story from two different perspectives is certainly an accomplishment. And to have each character uniquely different is certainly a difficult task. :D |
