Although Smee's Time Before is original with it's varing view points, my vote goes towards GvEvM for being the first story - that I know of at any rate - to include IF characters, and to have the story influenced by auctioning for characters and plot twists. _________________ Punishment leads to Fear.

Has to be Time Before here. Two viewpoints, interweaving storylines - not every author could carry that off.
It's a close thing between Smee's SG and GvEvM though...

If this was just for style, I think The Time Before would win hands down, but China's tale has that and heaps of originality as well. A twisting plot populated by more characters than is healthy, China nevertheless pulls it off with aplomb. Very funny, violent, with a crazy story that changes viewpoint constantly, not to mention the fun and original bidding system China has going for his story. _________________ "Humankind cannot stand too much reality" - T.S.

Fauna got my vote, though I think all the stories original. The addition of poetry at the beginning of each chapter, and writing a story from a supernatural being's perspective is certainly original. _________________ Stories
