Vote on the winner of the story giveaway contest

[Tux]

I enjoyed many of the posts that came out of this competition, it's funny that bumbling newbie stories can still be so entertaining. The 3 finalists are good choices Hagglebaron, I definitely thought #1 was the best myself.

But my tale was EPIC! bro!

I can't vote for a 'i almost died but didn't' story.

3 was nice but wow #2 made me laugh picturing someone getting all serious and saying 'eff you i'm the actual baroness not some dumb RPer'

Actually motec summed it all up pretty well, but i don't share his hatred for #3.

Where are all the family people! I thought #3 was very touching, a great father-son memory for them to share

Wow this got close over night, Cujoy making a comeback!

Despite it sounding like a dreadfully cheesy under-funded Hallmark Channel movie, I voted for story #3. That interaction and sheer amount of enjoyment just from socializing with other players/friends/family members in-game is exactly what I remember best and cherish the most about my classic days.

Back then it wasn't about pixels for me (Save for when my friends and I made female characters just to admire their tatas since CyberSitter had just gotten real popular) so even though I didn't have any moments quite as cheesy as that, I can totally relate and appreciate it.

As for the others...

#1: Good submission, but a tale experienced and told far too often in my opinion. Unintentional disaster is always worth a chuckle and a good story, but they're all pretty much the same in the end.

#2: Haha, just the entire image of this serious faced "Baroness" unknowingly roleplaying her ass off for great justice gave me a good laugh. I still have fond memories of when everything in EQ was taken seriously like that... y'know, when even though you weren't roleplaying you were still completely and utterly sucked into a living breathing world.

Thanks for hosting this Hagglebaron. Can't wait to see who wins!
