Story Contest Round 12: Semifinals
Since cbraund declined civman2000's offer, I suppose I may as well take up the slack since civman didn't say I shouldn't

Hopefully, I'm doing this right:



1- Mr. Lincoln's War by Stormin' Norman
2-The Plight of One Worker by Insane_Ike
3-“Es Frater Meus, Et Es Inimicus Meus” (“You Are My Brother, And You Are My Enemy”) by TheGuitarist
4-Organised Chaos(Dangerous Games 4) by cbraund
5-Past the Brink of Catastrophe by Jaguar Warrior
6-Six Degrees of Seperation by Velociryx
-The Ghost of Thermopolie by Lord Zalzabad.
8-Desparate Defenses by The Almighty Bob

-
Apologies, I'll edit this when I can, but I can't find Jaguar Warriors story.

Thanks for starting this contest, DarkCloud, but I was wondering when the poll closes.

I was hoping The Plight of One Worker and Six Degrees of Separation weren't going to be in the same contest as they are two great stories.

dnassman- you can vote for both if you like.
Hmm... I'll check the rules and view it on that day- I didn't set a deadline, but I knew there was one.
I think it's 3 days.

4. Once 8 seconded nominations are obtained, a preliminary round with unlimited voting (checkboxes) is created to last for 5 days.
5. After 5 days, the top 4 are transferred to a final poll with radio buttons which lasts 4 days. In the case of ties in the preliminaries, all of the stories that are tied for the 3rd and/or 4th spots go into the finals.
6. In the case of a tie in the finals, there will be a 2-day runoff vote. If there is still a tie, the two stories share the award.
So... 5 days

DarkCloud - but if both stories make it to the final round where previously only one could be chosen then it would be difficult to choose. I already voted for both in this round.

Hey, it's not that I'm not honored to be running in freaking third place and all but uhmmm...what the hell do you win if you win a story contest?

I'm just curious.

I believe first prize is a discount in the Apolyton store.

At least it used to be... I'm not sure if that's still in season

#2 and #3 get listed on the Civ III-Stories page, accessable from apolyton, and nothing else

Good Luck all

It is my understanding that this contest ends today, no?

So - on to the final round!
