I would like to thank everyone who voted on the Which HP story idea will reign supreme. I was very pleased with the amount of participation, though I lot of people put down more than one vote, thus splitting their votes. Odd that, but I tried to take it into account. If, however, your posts indicated you weren't certain you could vote for the first one – this happened quite a bit with Fate Touched, I put your full votes towards that. Let me say now that yes, Bring Back Fate Touched was indeed a choice. 

But again, let me say I really did like to see the participation. I love giving you, my fans a voice in what I write, and I hope that even if the story you wanted didn’t win, that you will enjoy my stories going forward.

Anyway, here are the results:

In last place, surprisingly, was Heroic Wizard, with only 75. Ouch. So we can safely say that story is now going to be placed on the back burner for a good long while. 

A Name to Conjure With brought in 186. Hmm… Enough interest to maybe bring around again at some point, perhaps enough to maybe remold as it were, but not enough to work on further.

Next Great Adventure 197. This was easily the one that had a kind of love it or hate it vibe, which I found fascinating to see. Once again, thank you for your participation.

Fate Touched 291. Huh. I’d hoped for more, but I suppose this is a decent showing. Just not enough to revive it, alas. 

Harry Sawyer brought in 459, a better showing than the previous interest in it had led me to assume. I think this was mainly because of the new format I used to describe it in better detail. This is definitely something to note heading into the future.

Different Kind of Magic 670. One of the two most popular choices, everyone seemed to like the idea of world building, and Take No Shit Potter, which I think is rather telling, and fun. 

Bhaal Son Remodel 783. The humor of the fic was the main draw, and possibly nostalgia/a need to see a decent fic in this fandom. Given my general combat scene brain drain, I am perfectly happy with the idea of concentrating on a more humorous fic.

So there you are. From now on, the Bhaal Son Remodel will be one of the small story or patron only poll choices.

I forgot to vote after asking how long we have, lmao. I can definitely enjoy a gamer fic though so no complaints here.

Man so sad that Heroic Wizard didn't win. I liked that Idea (since I voted for it) and hoped that you would write it. Really hope in the future you consider writing that story idea.

I was actually going to ask sicne you did post a question about how long the poll would last, but then I forgot too, so egg on both our faces LOL.

considering your "Flashy Fuck Me!" joke from your One Peace / Ranma fic made me for real laughed so hard I fell over on my side which made me laugh harder and because of that I doubled the amount I pay you on patreon and that was just 1 joke...Image if the story was humor focused, my god I will lose my shit

As you are aware im not as big a fan of Harry fics as Ranma Fics A Third Path excluded of course but im really excited about Bhaal Son Remodel and looking forward to it

David990

Will you be looking to write any of these stories in the future? Would really like to see different kind of magic brought to life.

AlexisVA

Fate touched was an option? I would have voted for that before anything else! I think I'm one of the most common advocates for that story.... The Legendarium is not really popular it seems...

Novus

Whohoo, I'm both excited Bhaal Son Remodel was chosen...and a little surprised. I figured a good chunk of your readers might not even have been old enough to remember the series. The games ARE twenty years old, after all, even if Beamdog rereleased them a few years ago

I knew I forgot something. I forgot to vote . . . Heroic Harry would have been awesome, but i think it stayed behind because the other ideas were just as awesome. I do think that the quirk vs magic thing could have been fleshed out a bit more in the summary, as well. I do have some thoughts on that. If you’d like to hear them, I’d be happy to share. I’ll be honest, I missed the crossover In a name to conjure with. It and the next great adventure were awesome ideas as well. Honestly, I think the reason these did not do so well, despite how awesome they could be, is that they were up against true diamonds, with thyme power or the current popular trends. Your Bhaal Son crossover has the power of the game world on its side, and includes some of our favorite characters from both series. Harry Sawyer is something you’ve been hinting and working on for a while, and seeing it fleshed out like this was awesome. And honestly, everyone loves a good Familiar of Zero crossover. All I ask is that you don’t let the less popular choices disappear. There are a lot of people who’d want to see those as well.

I kind of figured, since it wasn't exactly large enough to stand out as a separate thing. To compensate if anyone mentioned it positively I gave it votes, and put fifty of my own votes on it. Still not enough

LitRPGs are really popular, I guess. Talk about fanfiction coming to life LOL.

Novus

Huh. I didn't know that term was a thing until now. It totally fits, given the turn away from deep storytelling most RPGs have taken in the last decade, but I hadn't seen it before today :-). Of course, now I'm totally going to blame you for the hours I'll lose looking into all the other RPGs that are called that to see if there are any I haven't played ;-).

Jamie

Darn it i forgot to vote for a different kind of magic as homer would say doh!!! I hope you dont forget about the idea of it whenyoubdecide to take up another project/fic

Tomon

Lol... Feels like my ranking, but in reverse order. Kinda sad, especially for Heroic Wizard, but I guess people prefer OP take no sh*t Harry instead of a young on being raised in a different way ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ And of course Fate Touched again not enough votes. Shame. Still all your stories are great, so I guess I will have to start studying another universe (there goes my free time) :-D

vimesenthusiast

been talking about Fate Touched and Magic, and in April I might just say screw it, Fate's getting updated regardless, but we'll see.

Duncan Evans

The one that I would really love to see revived is The Effect of a Horse and a Dragon. I was loving that one.

Taco

The Effect of a Horse and a Dragon, was a good one indeed.

Stephen Foltz jr

I would love to see Effect of a Horse and a Dragon again. The Chaos Ranma and Herb cause is amazing in both good and bad ways. more good than bad though.
