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.

Probably my best story here.

I know some people might oppose this if the chapters are short, but sorry about that, I'm just busy and have not enough time to do the chapter.

I'm proud of this story.

 * 8) I'll admit that this story would probably have been longer if I had written it, but most people's writing styles aren't as verbose as mine. Nothing wrong with that. What matters is not the word count, but whether the story says everything that needed to be said. I think this does. Gideoncrawle  I have a song to sing, O!  Sing me your song, O!

(NAV) I'll challenge you guys on this: write it longer yourself. Keep the main idea, and make it longer, but still have the same effect. <font color="#gold">If you're going to lie <font color="#blue">to an all-knowing admin,  <font color="#red">you should at least put some effort in it.  14:59, November 11, 2011 (UTC)
 * 1) You guys can hate on me if you will, but I still think it is too short. If that's not a valid reason, then I also don't like the Heather one-shots anymore. They are kinda unoriginal.-- Radicalm18 "Nice guys finish last,  that's why I'll treat you like trash." 22:49, November 3, 2011 (UTC)
 * 2) I agree with Radi. You could add some more, that doesn't hurt. Mother, your alive! Too bad, because YOU WILL DIE! 02:07, November 4, 2011 (UTC)

(NAV) This was the one that kicked off the trend, Radi. Dark clouds all around, lightning rain is  pouring down!  07:03, November 13, 2011 (UTC)

(NAV) Y'see, Radi, TBTDIF here really could not make it much longer with the topic at hand, it was meant to describe Heather's reaction post-elimination. It accomplished that goal, with flying colours, nothing else is really needed. Hey!  Aren't you that   Mysterious user?  22:54, November 16, 2011 (UTC)

Heather- After Total Drama Island
I don't know if it's great, or not. I just want to see if anybody liked this story. It was in fact my first story. I don't expect much from it, but I'll give it a shot. This sotry focous's on Heather's life after Total Drama Island. You read what kind of dangers she might or might not face. Thank you for your time.

Alright, I don't expect this to win, but I'll at least try. XD I know it's short, but a lot of short one-shots have been featured, and as Shane said, quality not quanity. :P  Leave a comment... LIKE A BOSS 21:46, October 23, 2011 (UTC)

(NAV) In Bruno's defense, signatures without the name can be tough to identify. I have that problem myself, and I seldom feel like leaving editing mode to see who left the comment if I didn't note it ahead of time. <font color="Green">Sprinklemist <font color="Orange">hasn't changed his signature in a long time. 00:38, November 2, 2011 (UTC)

First
I know what you're thinking. You're thinking I'm a noob for nominating this story that I wrote 10 seconds ago that nobody has read. Truthfully I just want to see if people will support or not, and don't actually care if it wins or not.

Oppose
(NAV) No worries, Fan, a hopeless nomination is an accepted way to publicize a story. Although there are more deserving stories on the ballot, this is an entertaining little vignette.

(NAV) Nicely written, even tho' not canon of a canon character. I happen to prefer stories that go somewhere - Zeke learned to be a better person; made a close friend, learned something valuable about himself, etc. I enjoyed it, just the same. :) JustLittleOlMe Lil   Jay JLOM   Mrs. Gideon  03:02, November 15, 2011 (UTC)

The Drama Games
I got a lot of positive feedback on this! The Drama Games is a spinoff of the Hunger Games, but recreated with the Total Drama Theme. Drama, Alliances, Hate and Love, all of it in one big bundle with a shocking ending. The Drama Games, to me, is one of my best Fanfictions made here!

Oppose:

 * 1) Well, you finished this in a day, so that on it's own isn't a very good sound. Plus, I hate the Hunger Games already (yes, I'm totally gonna get flamed for that xD), there's not very much character development (although, to be fair, that can be excuse since we already know the characters), and it's written a bit blandly. Plus, the switching POV's is kinda useless, since the story's just revolved around Gwen from what I read of it anyways. xD Try working on these in the sequel. =P Mrdaimion:   like you,   only better.  13:50, November 13, 2011 (UTC)
 * 2) This is an entertaining read, but it has some plot holes that are big enough to be distracting. If you fix those (e.g. by including more backstory) I'll be happy to support this story. Until then, though, there are more deserving stories on the ballot. Gideoncrawle  I have a song to sing, O!  Sing me your song, O!  A wandering minstrel, I--  04:13, November 17, 2011 (UTC)

(This ain't a vote) Mrd, really, try using some kinder language. There's really no reason to swear.
