Rules

 * 1) You must have an account and 100 total edits to vote. There is no edit minimum to nominate a story.
 * 2) Nominees receiving 5 or more Oppose votes may be removed from the ballot at the discretion of the Administrators.
 * 3) Vote on as many stories as you wish, but only once per story. You may not vote for your own story.
 * 4) The following rules must be followed when opposing a story:
 * You must provide a reason for your vote. "No" and "Sorry" are not reasons.
 * Oppose votes that appear to be needlessly harsh will be removed. If it's worth saying, it can be said politely.
 * Please try to provide constructive criticism. This is the whole point of the Oppose option, because Oppose votes aren't actually counted.
 * "I want another story to win" votes will be removed. If you want another story to win, then cast a Support vote for the other story and leave it at that.
 * "I like another one of your stories better" votes will be removed. The only stories you should be comparing a nominee to are the other nominees.

The Drama Games
I felt like it was a good story. I had a lot of great feedback on it from some people. I added in a bit of a prologue and fixed a few things. It'd be wonderful to win Featured Story. I got eight votes last time. <3

Support:

 * 1) I'm a total freak physco uber fan when it comes to the THG series, so I can't help support. You were really determined with this story. :P If you have found this, you are a stealth ninja. Where'd my signature go? 22:25, December 1, 2011 (UTC)
 * 2) Awesome fic Sign  ature  20:29, December 2, 2011 (UTC)
 * Eh, I'll support. :p  Did you know that dolphins are just gay sharks?  22:13, December 2, 2011 (UTC)

Oppose:

 * 1) As I said last time, the story's rather blandly written with little to no character development (it doesn't help that I hate The Hunger Games too xD). The story also could have had some more effort put into it, had you spent longer then two days writing it. =P The story's not nessecarily bad, now that I look at it once more, just not quite FStory material. Mrdaimion:   like you,   only better.  21:23, December 3, 2011 (UTC)
 * 2) Same reason: bland, rather boring prose that I could barely stand through the first chapter. A good premise can't get far if it's coated with bland tone. Dark clouds all  around, lightning rain is  pouring down!  21:19, December 3, 2011 (UTC)
 * 3) As I noted previously, there are some distracting plotholes. Adding a prologue helped, but it's not nearly enough. Another plot hole is implausible resiliency by some characters, most notably Ezekiel--he's apparently run through with a katana (which, as we all know, is the Ultimate Weapon for this sort of story) and the story treats it as less serious than a sprained ankle. These people are supposed to be living humans, not zombies. Gideoncrawle  I have a song to sing, O!  Sing me your song, O!  A wandering minstrel, I--  21:44, December 4, 2011 (UTC)

 * 1) Nicely done little vignette. Quality, not quantity. Gideoncrawle  I have a song to sing, O!  Sing me your song, O!  A wandering minstrel, I-- 21:19, December 3, 2011 (UTC)
 * 2) As I said every other time I supported: quality over quanity. Mrdaimion:   like you,   only better.  21:21, December 3, 2011 (UTC)
 * 3) A nice little heartbreaking story. I quite like it! Frank15 21:22, December 3, 2011 (UTC)
 * 4) Loved this story, though it is short, that's thw whole point: Just to describe Heather's post-elimination thoughts. Hey!   Aren't you that   Mysterious user?  21:23, December 3, 2011 (UTC)

Oppose

 * 1) Same reason as last time. The idea is simply overdone and I believe that it is still too short, even for a one-shot. Sorry :/--Radicalm18 "Everybody best be lookin' at me, cuz I've got Christmas swag!" 21:20, December 3, 2011 (UTC)
 * 2) An okay story, but even for a one-shot, too short and not very descriptive. My apologies. Zinc   is fond of the colour  forest green.  18:05, December 4, 2011 (UTC)

Would be a good present for my birthday. ;D I'm proud of this story, and probably my favorite Heather fic that I have written (I've written more on FF.net).

My first one-shot!
