Although it looked like a close fight from the distribution of votes, this time there isn't any particular reversal. Here's what the points count revaled:
Path of the King: 325 points
Promises of a Wandering Hero: 145 points
On Wings of Steel: 288 points
Path of the King has won, this time. It's been a while since it had an update so I think that's fair....
2019-09-15 13:35:46 +0000 UTC View PostAlright guys, you already know the gist. Time to pick the story for the next round of updates. Will we continue with Promises of a Wandering Hero, or are we going to switch tracks to one of the other stories.
You tell me.
2019-09-04 05:45:07 +0000 UTC View PostAt last, the update is here. As you might now if you read the comments in the previous posts, my wife has been dealing with severe depression and that has a heavy impact on my time and ability to write. I would love to say that the problem has been solved, but if any among you is familiar with depression, you already know that peace is just the time between one war and the next. Here's hoping i...
2019-09-01 21:39:20 +0000 UTC View PostWow. This voting session has been a textbook case of bitch you thought.
Why you ask? See for yourselves.
On Wings of Steel: 236 points.
Path of the King: 225 points.
Promises of a Wandering Hero: 238 points.
It’s been an extremely close race despite the outward appearance. As you can see, though, a single Sorcerer voter isn’t necessarily enough to dete...
2019-07-10 14:52:42 +0000 UTC View PostAt last, after a very long time, we are back here to pick which story is going to be updated next.
On Wings of Steel won last time. Will it again?
You decide.
2019-07-05 20:48:44 +0000 UTC View PostI can't believe it's been almost a month since the last update.
I'm awfully sorry about the delay. I don't know where the time has gone. I've been having little respite from life recently, with professional and health issues. It's been hell.
At least I've managed to complete 2019-07-04 20:29:54 +0000 UTC View Post
Hello everybody,
sorry for the long wait. The past few weeks have been hard on me, creatively speaking. I fell into an emotional dump and couldn't muster the enthusiasm to write anything. Forcing myself to write produced lackluster results that have promptly been scrapped.
Am I out of it? Not yet, unfortunately, but after much suffering I did manage to produce something that I think...
2019-06-10 21:44:25 +0000 UTC View PostHuh. I was not expecting this result:
Path of the King: 249 Points
Promises of a Wandering Hero: 194 Points
On Wings of Steel: 324 Points
It goes without saying that On Wings of Steel takes the cake this time. It looks like this story is more popular than I thought.
Well, I'm on it. I'll see you all when the chapter is done.
2019-05-16 05:51:57 +0000 UTC View PostSo, here we are, back again.
Which story do you want to see updated this month. All three stories have reached a fairly interesting point, I daresay. Therefore, I can't really hazard a guess as to which one will prevail. I mean, usually my money would be on Path of the King but I've been proven wrong more than once.
Ultimately, the choice is up to you guys, so knock yourself out wit...
2019-05-07 19:18:14 +0000 UTC View PostGreetings people,
here's the second half of this month's update. Chapter 56 sets in motion a number of important events. If you were thinking that things were going far too smoothly for our heroes, this is were the tide starts to turn.
Enjoy.
2019-04-25 09:27:46 +0000 UTC View PostHere's the first of two chapter from this month's update. Rather than pushing out two chapter simultaneously, I'm trying to see how it will affect me pushing them out one by one a few days from one another.
So here goes Chapter 55. Expect Chapter 56 in about a week.
2019-04-15 19:09:02 +0000 UTC View PostWell, unlike the last few times, things are pretty much how they look like.
Here's the tally.
Path of the King: 447 points
On Wings of Steel: 262 points
Promises of a Wandering Hero: 134
Looks like the all time champion is back in the lead. Path of the King is the lucky story that you'll get to read this month.
I'll get started right away. 2019-04-07 18:23:13 +0000 UTC View Post
In the past few months, surprisingly, the all time favorite Path of the King had been repeatedly defeated. Promises of a Wandering Hero had a three consecutive victories and when it was taken out of the competition, On Wings of Steel stole the prize.
What will it be this month? Will Path of the King seize victory or will its younger competitors undermine it once more?
Only you can d...
2019-04-04 19:58:57 +0000 UTC View PostAnd here's Chapter 9 as well. I said what I wanted to say on the previous post so I'll just leave it here.
Tomorrow I'll put up the poll for the story update.
See you then.
2019-04-03 20:13:44 +0000 UTC View PostHi,
here's Chapter 8 , a little bit later than expected. I'm still doing a last minute revision of Chapter 9 but it won't be much longer (couple of days at worst).
You'll find out that I'm making some changes to the Sekirei's personalities. Unfortunately, they were qu...
2019-04-01 21:34:04 +0000 UTC View PostWhew! What a week. Here's are some poll results, fresh from the oven.
On Wings of Steel: 523 Points
Path of the King: 336 Points
I guess you guys want to read On Wings of Steel pretty badly so that's what I'm going to give you.
Expect the chapters by the end of the month.
Later!
2019-03-24 16:45:20 +0000 UTC View PostHello, everyone. Let's ride the update wave while it's still strong, shall we?
Promises is out of the running this time. So it boils down to Path of the King VS On Wings of Steel.
Which one should have its time in the limelight next?
Cast your vote, NOW!
2019-03-13 14:55:00 +0000 UTC View PostHere they are. With this update, Promises of a Wandering Hero is off the roster for the next update. So you better enjoy these two chapters while they are still fresh.
Here's the results:
Path of the King: 252 Points
On Wings of Steel: 239 Points
Promises of a Wandering Hero: 440 points
Despite my misgivings about Promises of a Wandering Hero, the story seems to be more liked than I believed, although the majority of the readers has voted in favor of a rewrite.
That has put things in perspective for me. However, ...
2019-03-11 20:57:50 +0000 UTC View PostHello everybody. I know this is an unexpected post, but I was working on the next chapter of Promises while waiting for the definitive results of the update poll.
I first started writing this story so many years ago trying to see how many parallels I could draw between Fate and Love Hina, as well between Shirou and Keitaro. I had a few plot points I wanted to touch upon but I didn't plan ...
2019-03-06 11:10:32 +0000 UTC View PostHere we are again. New month, new poll.
Promises of a Wandering Hero won twice in a row, so if it’s picked again this time it’ll be excluded from the next round. However that’s then and this is the present.
So cast your vote and choose what you want to read next.
2019-03-01 13:40:57 +0000 UTC View PostI made it in time! Chapter 26 is here!
I must say that I'm not really happy with the overall feel and flow, but I toyed with it for days until I decided that I was either going to write it from scratch (again) or just post it like this.
I hope you like it better than I do.<...
2019-02-28 15:22:24 +0000 UTC View PostAlright! I've made it.
I've lost count of how many times I started writing this chapter from scratch but here it is. The next one should be marginally easier and I hope to have it done by the end of next week.
For the time being, enjoy chapter 25.
See you soon
2019-02-17 20:13:30 +0000 UTC View PostI'm experiencing some difficulties. I've rewritten the next chapter of Promises at least five times and it still isn't coming out right. It's an important point in the story and I cannot mess it up.
It might take a while. Worst case scenario, I'm going to suspend the monthly payment until it's done.
Just letting you all know.
2019-02-14 06:33:27 +0000 UTC View PostAnother month, another poll, another tight victory. Here's the results:
Path of the King: 291 points
Promises of a Wandering Hero: 300 points
On Wings of Steel: 146 points
Hence, Promises of a Wandering Hero wins twice in a row by a margin of a couple of votes. Congratulation to all of you who'd wanted t...
2019-02-04 06:06:49 +0000 UTC View PostTime to Vote!
Pick whichever story you want to read next. You should know the gist now.
May the best story win.
2019-01-27 21:44:59 +0000 UTC View PostWhew. Here it is, finally.
Between being sick and the chapter being willful, it has been rather hard to finish it. Thanks for being patient.
After reading this chapter, you might have several questions about why some things happened, and why some others haven't.
I'm sick, not dead. The second part of this month's update is undergoing revision. Should be done in a couple of days-
I'm going back to bed now.
Love you all.
2019-01-23 19:38:27 +0000 UTC View PostHere's the first half of the promised update. I'm working on chapter 24 and I should have it done in a few days.
Shit is a about to hit the fan for Shirou and friends. Don't go anywhere, now, or you might miss it.
PS: It hasn't been proofread yet, so please forgive an...
2019-01-07 21:39:25 +0000 UTC View PostWell, I did not expect things to turn out like this. Here's what the points count showed.
Promises of a Wandering Hero: 263 points
On Wings of Steel: 261 points
Path of the King: 152 Points
Promises of a Wandering Hero wins by the narrowest of margins. A single $5 vote would have made all the diffe...
