Okay. The nomination stage of the IFYs is over. Thanks to all who expressed an opinion, we've got some great chances this time around
Now it's time to vote, and you have three days, before the other half of the voting begins. The category up for consideration here is:
Best Description/Detail : Have you read a storygame and become totally immersed in its imagery and detail? Then it deserves your vote for the Best Description/Detail Ify.
Get Voting! _________________ The path of my life is strewn with cowpats from the Devil's own Satanic Herd!

Uncertain Quests does it for me too. Very well detailed in both characters, events and world. How it hasn't won SGotM already beats me

After reading through the entire story (yesterday), I have to agree with the others. Dragon's wonderful port city is brought to life more vividly than any other setting I can think of in the whole of IF. The sights, sounds, smells and characters are all brought to life with stunning realism, and I feel as though I am there among the bustling peoples with the smell of sea salt and dying mages all around. _________________ "Humankind cannot stand too much reality" - T.S.

I favor Garden. Haven't made my way completely through UQ as yet, although it's a worthy contender as well. However, I do enjoy the wonderful descriptions in Chinny's work. _________________ The maker of a sentence launches out into the infinite and builds a road into Chaos and old Night, and is followed by those who hear him with something of wild, creative delight. ~Ralph Waldo Emerson

Had to go for DF's Uncertain Quests. With all the description and detail, it has certainly kept me riveted. _________________ Stories
