Vote, vote, vote!

Eugenides made it to round three, but he's losing.... Vote now!

http://yafantasyshowdown.weebly.com/katniss-vs-eugenides.html

ETA (because I just couldn't resist, it's perfect):

"I've seen him suffer setbacks." Ornon looked at the queen and away. "I have never seen him, in the end, lose. He just persists until he comes out ahead. No match is finished for him until he has won." Ornon shrugged expressively. "He won't quit, and he won't thank you for interfering."

From page 372 of my copy of KoA

E again TA: Yes, it's Gen against Alanna next! And it's Howl against Katsa. HOW AWESOME it will be if it's Howl against Gen? THE GODS WILL SMILE. And so will MWT and DWJ. THIS MUST HAPPEN.
(That's all.)

ALSO ALSO ALSO: I will be away over the weekend and unable to vote (or to participate in voting party comments, boo) so if one person can vote for me... I would vote for Gen and Howl. Thanks all!

[beth-shulman.livejournal.com]

Lol awesome! And he's ahead now!

[lilian-cho.livejournal.com]

Voted from my laptop and my G1 *g*

Shall check again tomorrow!

[chachic.livejournal.com]

I voted too! I voted here on my work computer and I made my co-worker vote. I'm going to vote again in my computer at home.

[sandtree.livejournal.com]

I voted. :)

[beth-shulman.livejournal.com]

:) He's winning now - how great and Eugenides-like it will be if he wins.

[tiegirl.livejournal.com]

I ordered asked Brian nicely to vote so that'll help too...

[beth-shulman.livejournal.com]

I want him to sneakily win the entire thing. It will be a success for literature everywhere. And it's so thematically appropriate!

[coyul.livejournal.com]

I love how he's winning now. :D Sounisians can do ANYTHING, although left to himself, Gen could ttly do it on his own.

[lizzyazula.livejournal.com]

If Gen starts to lose. I'm cheating.

One of the things this community can boast about, of which there are several, is that these books have the most rabid and dedicated fans on the planet, and if by some chance Gen does lose, we shall mob together with pitchforks and the like and start war.

...that was a little violent but GEN MUST WIN

[ninedaysaqueen.livejournal.com]

Advantages: He's Eugenides.

Okay... That killed me.

I VOTED!

I see we are in the lead. Go, Gen! That little piece of fan-fiction really amused me, and I haven't even read the HG.

[beth-shulman.livejournal.com]

Hey! :) The power of Sounis...

[jade-sabre-301.livejournal.com]

Alanna beat Ged?

Okay so I know I officially threw up my hands at this contest during round one, but I OFFICIALLY THROW UP MY HANDS AT THIS CONTEST. HOW DO PEOPLE NOT UNDERSTAND HOW THIS IS SUPPOSED TO WORK.

[beth-shulman.livejournal.com]

That icon is awesome. (And if Gen wins, I will forgive the contest all its flaws.)

[elle-winters.livejournal.com]

I HAZ VOTED.

*MUAHAHAHA*

:-)

It's getting really really close, again... eeek!

[wanderingdreamr.livejournal.com]

This entire page has made my day. I'm loving all the literary nerdy goodness and if it was possible to like comments I'd have liked half of them here.

[checkers65477.livejournal.com]

And, really, we are winning if you look at total votes:

Katsa & Jace - 549
Percy & Howl - 525
Alanna & Aragorn - 521

Katniss & Gen - 922

Even if the ballot box got stuffed a little.

[elle-winters.livejournal.com]

Ahhhhh......

IT'S AT 50/50 XO


CHECKERS...MAKE.. IT.. STOP..... with your magic mod skillz!

[zumie-ashlen.livejournal.com]

He's leading with five now (I voted).

Yeah, Katniss is awesome, but she's also a kid that has had a lot of luck and friends on her side. srs!Gen = dead!Katniss.

[bluestalking.livejournal.com]

I admit I am just as thrilled about voting against Katniss as voting for Gen. MAN I HATE THOSE BOOKS.

[traboule.livejournal.com]

What you said. I'm not too much of a fan of Katniss and Gale drives me nuts. But PS YOU HAVE A DARREN NICHOLS ICON. WANT.

I have to tie people to my couch to appreciate Darren. It's awesome to find a Slings and Arrows icon out there in the world. Nice.

he's losing right now by 50 votes and there's only 1 hour and 40 minutes to go...this is frustrating me...

Kiva looks with disdain upon the very idea of Gen losing

[thelasteddis.livejournal.com]

COME ON, GUYS--WE'RE FIVE MORE VOTES FROM BEING TIED AGAIN!!!

VOTE VOTE VOTE!!!!!

Ps. If you refresh the page you can vote up to five times before it catches on. 8-D

we're not going to cheat and win TLE
even though Gen would kill himself before he was killed.

*sigh*

[traboule.livejournal.com]

Eeek! Voting repeatedly and trying to make all friends vote (repeatedly). But talking around the fangirling is difficult.

The Alanna/Aragorn fight has sort of blown my ability to speak for myself. How awesome is it that both Gen and Howl are doing so well? Sneaky and funny stands up surprisingly well to the self-involved and humorless warrior maidens Katniss and Katsa - whose party I think this is.

Silly Mockingjay. How I am actually not excited about your arrival...

[claire-mirkwood.livejournal.com]

Ahem.
I voted for Gen. Not because I don't like Katniss, but because Gen would, simply, win. Katniss's not used to fighting alone, as she always had Peeta. Gen, on the other hand, is a thief, and not trained to be a team player. One on one, in a short space of time, Gen will flatten her.
Over a long space of time, with Peeta and her other allies helping her...I don't know. *ducks arrows and cannonballs from outraged Sounisians*
I'm being FAIR!
And I only voted once, because, like Aragorn, I am way too noble for my own good.

[ninedaysaqueen.livejournal.com]

AHHHHAAAA!

It's gonna Gen vs. Alanna now!

TAKE HER TO TOWN! DOWN WITH THE LIONESS!

Gen and Howl have to win the next round! I want to see them face off. That would be epic.

Is it just me or has Gen almost exclusively fought women? Three girls out of four opponents. Huh...

[elle-winters.livejournal.com]

I wonder what Irene has to say about this...hmm..lol

They would definitely smile...and place bets ;-)

[elle-winters.livejournal.com]

Howl vs Gen would be sooo epic, yet some how i imagine the battle not even taking place...


/Howl offers Gen some tea
Howl: I have to take care of myself, I wish she would understand that before she wreaks havoc on my assortment of shampoos in the name of cleaning!
/Gen nods with understanding
Gen: She insists I wear this dumb wooden hand to parties, hook gives me definition!

Re: They would definitely smile...and place bets ;-)

[beth-shulman.livejournal.com]

Lol! There would be too much mutual respect. And I don't even know who I would vote for...

[brandy-painter.livejournal.com]

Haha! I saw that had changed and wondered if anyone here had anything to do with it. Way to go!

[aspectabund.livejournal.com]

PFFFT I don't even care who wins now, they are all awesome. C:
