Okay! Ladies and gentlemene--Trekkers, Trekkies, Treknecks, Trek Lovers, Future-Seekers, and Conversationalists all across the Final Frontier--

First, someone call Guinness (or in this case, the great T'Bonz). This could well set a record for "Most entries EVER entered in a Trek BBS Fanfic Contest"! (For those of you who know more than I do on this...by all means, correct the record. But--nine! NINE!!!)

Okay...let's establish some rules for how this works:

-Obviously, since there are a LOT of entries, I simply MUST allow for multiple voting. Each voter will be allowed a maximum of two selections.

-This will be a public poll. So do NOT assume you can bend the rules. We will be watching. :cool:

-In the event of a tie--which is highly likely--there will be a run-off.

-Due, again, to the IMMENSE number of entries, I will allow for a whole week of voting. Thus, you all have precisely seven 24-hour days to read all the entries, and make your selection.

Okay...let's DO this!!!

Here are the entries:

"Beginning Again", by TheLoneRedshirt

(Note: this tale, I've noticed, has been criticized for, among other things, being insanely short. I'll allow it, on the grounds that I did not provide a "floor".)

And there you have it folks. The polls...are...OPEN!!!
 
i voted before reading that 2 votes are allowed....i'd also like to vote for "the dating game" if you can add that in for me
 
Unfortunately, I'm unable to change results, BUT--

I'll establish it, here, as a "write-in", to be added after the poll closes:

One more vote for "The Dating Game".
 
This was tough! There were several excellent stories submitted this month - kudos to all who entered!

In the end, I voted for Gibraltar's "Life is Choices" and D'Noth's "The New Order." I felt like these two stories really nailed the challenge theme.

Well, at least I'm not the only idiot. I only voted once. Could I write in a vote for Dnoth?

There have been times when there have been at least ten entries. Not a record.

Beginning Again and After Time After.
 
I'm also one of the people who ass-u-me-d you could only vote for one, but don't worry about it. I voted for the TheLoneRedShirt. Thanks to those who voted for my story! (I need to update my browser. I hit 'enter' but it doesn't show up once I submit reply. ??)
 
Several good entries! Made it hard to choose. I ended up voting for "Beginning Again" and "Life is Choices". It was a really tough choice between the latter and "Bright New Day"!
 
As the poll comes to an end--I will "vote" in the selections other posters have had to write in. I wish all to bear witness to the fact that such is my motivation for "multi-voting".

I myself have abstained from voting, on the grounds that, unfortunately, I have been unable to read all the entries. *sigh*....
 
AND...ladies and gentlemen...we have a winner!!!

Congratulations to TheLoneRedshirt. Please make sure to post your tale in the "Winning Entries" thread--and to come up with a new theme for February!

And a special thanks to all who have participated--through contributions, or voting, or both.

Congratulations, one and all. :)
