19 June 2002 - The Floridians Will No Doubt Demand A Recount
Boy, when you people vote, you don't mess around. I received a LOT
of votes on what the next .plan update topic should be. And it was
close. Really close. Like one vote close. So what topic won?
Suprisingly, it was the ROTC storyline this time! Since the Wedding
storyline people have been on a roll and had such a lead in the votes
last time, I though that I'd be writing about weddings for sure. I
guess the ROTC folks revised their tactics and conquered the Wedding
storyline folks using a clever flanking manuever. Or maybe it was
because they just rocked my inbox with messages filled with assurances
along the lines of "oh yes, we WILL get our ROTC update this time."
Any way you slice it, it was impressive. There were 37 votes
for the ROTC storyline, 36 votes for the wedding storyline, and
a single solitary vote for a new storyline.
And to add fuel to this fire, I received 3 votes for the
wedding storyline after the deadline for the voting had passed. I'm
telling you, it was close this time around.
In other news, I've received a number of applications for the
minion/henchman/lieutenant positions that I mentioned in the last
update. Some of the applications are long. Some are short. Some are
really clever. Some sure as heck aren't. Almost all are pretty
darn funny. The field has varied quite a bit so far. I'm really
amazed with some of the entries I've received so far... you people are
putting a LOT of time into these things.
Keep those applications coming! Remember, you have until the
end of Sunday the 23rd (Midnight) to get your minion
application to me.
Without further ado, the ROTC story continues...
