October Poll Results! (Patreon)
Content
Alright! There will be a post much later today (after I've actually slept!) for the first release of October (Why Was There No Truck?!, in this case), but I wanted to slip the poll results in today as well. So I ran the numbers just about as soon as the poll actually finished around midnight. Let's take a look see at the results, shall we?
Stripper With a System: 367.84
Harry Potter: Pandora's Box: 236.5 + 10% Boost = 260.15
A Very Confused Pokemon Adventure: 213.84
Misfit System: 138.84
Whew! Well, the winner honestly wasn't too hard to predict this time. Stripper With a System is popular and didn't get an update last month, so voters dogpiled it a bit! I'm sure the fact that it has possibly the highest Horni Quotient of any current story has nothing to do with it...probably ;-). That said, Pandora's Box and Pokemon Adventure both put on a solid showing! Pandora's Box, in particular, with have an excellent chance next month, I think, as its boost will continue to accrue.
I have to admit that I'm a little torn about how poorly Misfit System did. That story seems to be far more polarizing than I'd hoped. When I get feedback on it at all it's almost universally positive, but getting that feedback has been a bit rough, and then there's the weird way polls with it have gone. 70% of people wanted to see it continue, only for it to crash and burn pretty hard when put in the poll for the first time. Part of it might just be how early on things are with that fic, I guess, which means I might need to throw another Author's Choice at it to get it some more traction before it can hold its own. For now I guess it's a bit of a case of needing to wait and see.
Anyway! With the extremely clear winner of Stripper With a System, you can look forward to seeing Rylia and Co reappear on the 8th! I'm using the same update schedule for October that I did for September, as it seems to have worked pretty well! So:
October 1st - 10,000+ words of Why Was There No Truck?! (Author's Choice)
October 4th - 10,000 words of One Piece: Halfway Broken
October 8th - 10,000 words of Stripper With a System (Poll Winner)
October 12th - 10,000 words of Can One Displaced Hero Save the Galaxy?!
October 16th - 10,000 words of Why Was There No Truck?! (Author's Choice)
October 20th - 10,000 words of One Piece: Halfway Broken
October 24nd - 10,000 words of Stripper With a System (Poll Winner)
October 28th - 10,000 words of Can One Displaced Hero Save the Galaxy?!
Random Point in the Month - 10,000+ word Extra
Total Word Count = 90,000+ words
That's what the month looks like! As I already said above, the first Why Was There No Truck!? release of the month will be out later today!
