Acrophobia #22 -- Words to votes


a free shadow

Recommended Posts

1st:  11. Challenging Oaths - Seeking Destiny! (I like how this one spins a negative -- oath-breaking -- into a positive. Very political.)

2nd:   1. Confederation of Societal Dissenters  (Appropriate because Mance would be the most "populist" candidate for king.)

3rd:    12. Change Over Southern Dumbasses! (I like this one because, dumbasses. :laugh:)

4th:    5. Crooner opposing snow demons! (This one strikes me as a mocking statement from a Mance opponent, but I like it.)

1. Confederation of Societal Dissenters (Dolorous Gabe) 1+1+2+1+1+1 = 7

2. Choose Our Spring Dream (Julia H.) 1+1+3+3+3+1+3+3+3+4 = 25

3. Carrying on Southward, Dutifully (PyrolasticFlow) 1+1+1+3+1 = 7

4. ‘Cause Others Serve Death (Night's Queen) 1+1+1+1+1+3+3+1 = 12

5. Crooner opposing snow demons! (Howlin' Howland) 1+1+2+3+1+2+1 = 11

6. Comrades! Our solidarity defends! (Castellan) 1+1+1+1+2+1 = 7

7. Come on, select deliverance! (yomi) 1+1+1+1+1 = 5

8. Creating Our Southern Destiny. (Emmit) 1+1+3+2+3+2+2 = 14

9. Crown on strategy, defense. (Lady Blizzardborn) 1+1 = 2

10. Conquering (other) Sizeable Demons! (lil' ghost) 1+1+1 = 3

11. Challenging Oaths - Seeking Destiny! (rocksniffer) 1+1+1+2+1+1+2+1+3+2 = 15

12. Change Over Southern Dumbasses! (Ser Not Appearing) 1+1+1+1 = 4

13. Crush oppressors!  Sack despots! (Fragile Bird) 1+1+2+2+2+1 = 9

The Wall was melted by the words of Julia H., who now is ahead of everyone :ninja: Fragile Bird is close second. Ser Not Appearing keeps appearances by holding onto the third place, but roscksniffer and Emmit are on his tail :P

I disapprove of not seeing Lady Blizzardborn higher up the list, for her entries continue to be creative And also lil' ghost.

Also I can tell you that despite a fairly mediocre average advice, the host keeps giving bad advice to Castellan.

Congrats, Julia! 

I must admit I have been very uninspired as of late....

Thanks, FB! :)

I'm very proud that such a fantastic flyer has been based on one of my entries and I'll do my best to enjoy my temporary stay at the top of the list. 

I was inspired by Mance but Arianne Martell didn't sing for me half as nicely as Mance had, so my song for her will secure my spectacular fall down the list.

Speaking of the new entries, I can see several that resemble (though not exactly the same as) some of my rejected ideas. It will be interesting to compare their points.

Aw, thanks shadow. I have to admit my Mance entry did not really have a ring to it. It was kind of a "vote for him because reasons" instead of inspiring or crowd-pleasing, or even remotely something an arena full of people would want to chant obsessively. It's like if Stannis was trying to write campaign slogans. :D

I'm definitely off my game lately. Life has been distracting me again, darn it.

1. 5. She. Undoubtedly. Now.
Wow. This is so strong. Perhaps the strongest entry the entire game. I like how in these three words it gets across that there is really only one choice. 
2.  3. Support Unbowed Noblewoman!
I couldn't get any of the Martell words to work. And I tried.
3.  1. Sun undoes Night! 
Very nice play on words.
4.  9. Sun Unifies Nation!
The best of the rest.
