I will nominate it also, very funny little story, shame it ended so abruptly but well written all the same.

I would like to re nominate Steamthunks America series, all five parts as one story as per Steam's wishes .
He has now posted the fifth installment and it is brilliant, though no surprise as the whole series is

johnmcleod have you forgotten about this ? you said you would set up a poll on saturday about two weeks ago!
I dont know if you remember but I offered my help to you ages ago and you did not respond, but it seems to me that you dont really have the time to do this.

He probably does have the time... just hasn't noticed this thread since it isn't topped.
To top a thread- PM MarkG  That what I did during my interim term as Contest runner
But why not continue the contest from what it was?
To give some continuity to the series... this would be number 14, I believe

Here's help:
""The Great Cold War" by Jack_www
"America in Peril" by Steamthunk
"America Balance of Power" by Steamthunk
Part 3/4/5 by Steamthunk
""America Defiance" by Steamthunk
"Times of War and Diplomacy" by Johnmcleod
"Ghost of Thermopilie" by Lord_Zalsabad
""Mikes Story" by ChrisusMaximus
BOLD are seconded
-Using the old system... which I would assume that we should use... since it's tradition

I apologize to everyone on this forum. The last couple weeks have been total hell; I have emails from mid november I haven't had a chance to read. I will do it this Saturday I PROMISE! One thing though. I set up some rules, but Chrisius Maximus said we should have a vote or something on the rules, so I said cool, and whoever didn't like the rules should post something. But nobody did, so I don't know what rules we're going by. I personally like my rules much better because that's kind of the way it works for the Academy Awards, which is what I think would be good to model after. I'm not sure how the nominations for that work, but I like just having 4 of the stories that were nominated up for finals, and the best way to choose those is to choose the ones that get the most nominations.

Well, john, I don't know if you have seen this thread, but just two days ago, DarkCloud has restarted the Story Contest Round 13: Nominations thread, because he thought you wouldn't be back to continue organizing the story contest. I think the two of you should organize your efforts, because I am not sure running two contests at the same time is a great idea
