Well I know I am figthing a loosing cause here, but i am going to vote for 507. Its much overlooked and i think it has evry bit as much going for it as the other more popular ones. (They are very good too of cours).
This is best plot adn 507 has a real humdinger! |

Mmm. I find the voting here (so far) perplexing.
TTB seems to be running away with this over NGD, yet although I think Smee's story is certainly very good and told well, when it comes down to brass tacks the plot isn't the most original, especially compared to NGD*.
Yet on the other had, I think Smee's story stands quite far above NGD in decision points, being more diverse and really breaking new ground, yet NGD, whilst certainly not being bad in any way, and having good discussions on DPs, I don't think matches Smees.
Yet in that category, NGD is smacking TTB's bottom.
Well, I guess it evens out in the end. :?
Of course, these are my opinions. Everyone else is perfectly entitled to theirs, even if they are wrong. ;)
*This is not even mentioning mine, though I never expected it to do well against these two heavyweights. Not that I don't think the plot stands up, it's just not as popular. :cry2: |

| Well, I think TTB interweaves stories well, which adds to the plot. The two characters seem fated to meet at some point, and they seem connected through different adventures... |

| TTB. Like D said, the interweaving of two different plots makes for a complicated, yet interesting plot. |

I am assuming the IFY voting has now well and truly completed, and have sent a PM to the winners. If you didn't get it, please contact me!
Thanks to you that voted for 507 as well! :D A new chapter will be coming soon. |
