oops...there was no consensus on whether to do 12 or 16 though, and there were very few voters...and it seems that the overwhelming number of stories has slowed...maybe we could make a new poll, get it topped, make it more official, so we can be sure of the results...

Perhaps we should wait to 12 or so stories... merely to make the prize more alluring, and people write better stories, perhaps (that is to say, if one believes the quality has been dropping off?)

I don't think it would be detrimental for the contests to last a bit longer?

I like the Charioteers Campaigns better than In Times of war; if that's worth anything [In the event that I can only have one story in this round]

And I like Benos story better than In Times of War (Wish I could have seconded that one )
