This one is, indeed, very hard to decide. And I had to go back to the stories to make my choice...

Spoiler:
In the end, Culture flip it is for me.

Look at the poll there! That has got to be the most intense final so far. 9-8 votes. One vote and we might have the first tie in the history of the story contest!

Wow. Cingis was leading a lot in the beginning, but Gandhi Kahn has since closed the gap!

(I hope that the authors themselves have voted , as their votes may yet determine the election! )

Congratulations Cingis Kahn!

It was a close race, but you just barely edged out bassman for the honors!

Well, since you are the second person that asks... For one thing, like I told DC in another thread - to be nonconformist like everyone else. And secondly... 'tis a sad week for me... And I would rather leave it at that.

Ah, ok. Conforming to nonconformity. I should try that more often.

Don't worry about that. I was just trying to be a smart@$$ in replying to your previos post and that made me feel bad. Not your fault.
