If you truely do read all these entries, I will surly be impressed. I could never read all these entries. I'm glad I've kept up with Michal's Fanfic to not need to re-read it, and I've already read/skimmed before hand most of these series. It was easier on me to vote now without haveing to go back and read for the first time these things, since I've read a lot of them when they firs premired lol.

You're welcome, remember tell me when your next chapters are coming out.

:ghehe:

I try to read as much as I can. Last contest, I finished a few, and then I got tired and skimmed through the remaining ones to get the gist of the general plot and writing style. And that's kind of unfair, because I should technically read all of them on...equal grounds. My vote might be biased.
This time round, I'll see if I can read all properly...no guarantee though. But I want to vote honestly/fairly.

Well you have more in you then I do. Unless it's a fanfic I've kept up with (You're for example because they're short as hell and easy on my eyes:D lol) I generally skim through them. I get the general gist of people writing styles, and plotlines after I skim one or two chapters (usually if the entries are beyond the first couple chapters I'll go back to the first to get a feel for it)

And then once I get tired (which is usually an hour) I say F*** it (parden my French) and just vote from there lol. I keep it fair though I do my research well enough before I vote.

My vote goes to The Legendary Sage of Konoha by Michael92!

It sure is not easy to work on every chapter making sure that each chapter does not fall out of the story line; that each chapter would contain stuffs that would keep the readers' interest go on and await for the next. Hard work deserves acknowledgement and the said series deserves a solid stand. So if I may have not read some other entries, it is not because I have neglected them or that I am not giving them a chance to stand out but, it is because the work and commitment that the writer have dedicated to it (TLSoK) deserves the popularity it gained, IMO.:o

TLSoK's 3 chapters entry for this month's contest are the ending chapters of the series and I must say that the entire series never faded out of its glory. So I am not backing down my vote for some others.

The great number of fan base it has acquired are fruits of what the sower sowed. The series have become popular because it satisfied the liking of the many and not because Brad Pitt (or any other top stars) took a turn from acting and decided to become a recording star. (Assuming that Brad Pitt is a terrible singer:D) Buying his records is what you can call influenced by popularity.:o

I also feel that making a stand on what I think is best (for me) would encourage others to keep up and learn from whoever is ahead of them. Showing them how others' work is better than theirs is actually one way for me tell them to continue to improve and challenge their selves and see FF writing in NB the way I see how TLSoK is soooo way high up beyond my own work.

Ugh, I have to wait five more days to finish in dead last. The suspense is killing me!

[Sonne]

Damn I had just about forgot I had entered this contest lol. Thanks for the support Colour lol...

As for me I'm only going to be looking at the Fanfics that most people might neglect, or should I say the underdogs here (I myself included in that group). Not to be mean but I see a lot of popularity plays into these compititions so I'm not really going to go for that. I've read/skimmed (odds are just a brief glance, I'm not a reader so much) just about everybody's Fanfic that is on here, at one point or another so I have a general idea of who I'm going to vote for...however I'm not going to feed those few who already have a large fanbase and don't need my vote. Those people know who I'm talking about and don't take offense, it's just you don't really need it. If anything it's a compliment for me not to see the need to vote for you if I already have confidence that those characters have a better shot then myself and some of the others here.

However to everyone here, I say: Good luck to you all.

It has a lot to do about status and how well people know you. Of coarse there are those few who do go through and read all the Fanfics and do the whole judging thing with the rubric and everything. However the thing is three chapters per submission, from nine submissions that's 27 chapters to read, and most of them aren't short, I mean, hell my chapters are long as hell, I even get tired proof reading them (don't tell anybody I don't always proof read before I post...don't tell anybody lol).

We can assume, those voting aren't really going to have the time, nor really want to read all 27 chapters, so for those who are voting, if they've read a certain person's series and like it, they're going to vote for that person obviously without reading the other submissions or after just skimming through about 2 or 3 of them.

As for me, I'm not a reader, so to narrow down my choices I look only at the people who I feel will need the votes more. People who have series that so many people love and thank, don't need it because once those people know of them in the contest they'll vote. So for me I vote for the underdogs to give them a chance at possibly placing or making it close (hopefully)

On that note I give my vote to Train, as I truely favor his series and see it as perhaps one of the best entries here, IMO.

Wow...39 voters already...
Eh, I agree that popularity can be a factor that influences the results of the contest...
But it won't influence my vote.
I don't care 'who' the author is. Or however many votes they have already.
I care about the story, what its about, how its written, and how its displayed.
Anyway, seeing that I've barely finished/skimmed through all of them, I probably won't be voting anytime soon.
Good luck to all the contestants, I'm sure you guys have worked hard. Being a new author myself, I can finally appreciate the effort it takes to think up the next chapter.
Edit: Thanks Reborn : ]

Why exactly are you Spamming Wall of Text No Jutsu?

No-one expects you to actually read all of them right now, if you are in the FF business, you read them when they are out, no matter whose it is and how badly it is written.
I honestly cba read every chapter presented here, not because I am too bored to (Which I am), but because I have already.

@Nikkou You know what I think. ._>

[Línk]

Poke' Sage All the way.

@Nikkou You know what I think. ._>

I think so:y And I know none of my reasons would work on you.
But yet, as always, you would understand and accept whatever I decide on.

Did I really type that much? Sorry.
But I don't think I've fully mastered the Jutsu yet, I can't pull if off as effectively as others expertly can.
Regardless if whether anyone expects me to or not, I'm reading them now [the ones I haven't anyway], because I hadn't the chance earlier. >__> "
I guess I'm not really in the 'FF business' [from what I understood anyway], because I don't read every chapter/story when they're out within the FF section, save for the few that interest me.
Congrats for reading all. Wish I were in that position. ( - . - )

Well, I'm surprisingly doing far better than I thought I would be! I was definitely expecting to have far less votes seeing as my FF isn't about Naruto.

[Faust]

woop woop
zombie gets my vote.

[Flaw]

woop woop
zombie gets my vote.

I'll bet any amount of money that if Zombie was leading, Faust would vote for someone else.

[Pain..]

Pervy Pirates!

[Michael92]

Five days without a pc and the contest is almost over already
I want to thank all who voted for me in this contest so far and Nikkou for her wall no jutsu, appreciate it a lot:D

Not sure who I'll vote for this month as I'm way behind on reading FFs nowadays. Depends on what I'll be able to read up on before 9/11 (coincident?). Speaking of which, is it just me or is the poll open for a unusual short periode of time? Oh well, better to get over and done with it sooner than later I guess

Good luck to everyone for the rest of the contest (though I doubt some of you need it seeing how the standings were halfway through it).
