Finally getting around to this!  The flash contest kept me forgetting about it!

But it's here now!  The final round for best Pseudopod episode of 2012!  Get your votes in while it's hot!  I'm running this poll for 2 weeks in hopes of garnering more votes.

I'd like to hear my options, so I could weigh them, what do you say?
Five pounds?  Six pounds? Seven pounds?

It is a crime that Final Girl Theory is not up here.

All cat stories start with this statement: “My mother, who was the first cat, told me this...”

Agreed.

But in the interim, my story is there!  So vote for that!

I did! (Not because you asked, but because it was my actual favourite this year)

Just because you're out of the flash fiction contest, you now think you need to win at some other poll? WE ARE NOT YOUR PLAYTHINGS!

I voted for you anyway. Frankly I was surprised that I didn't vote for either of your flash stories, since I usually enjoy your stuff. Four of six up here are ones I passed through to Shawn, so I gotta say that makes me happy. (That being said I would have passed the other two through had I read them but they weren't in my pile.)

I had complained in the beginning that I should have voted for Meat Forest and was sad not to see in it the groups we voted for, but in the end most of these stories are the stories I expected to be in the top group. You could make a solid arguement for any of these six stories wining.

I loved Kill Screen, but in reading the comments when that came out.. It seemed like there were those who loved it and those that hated it.  So I guess I am a little surprised in Kill Screen, but then again a love it or leave it vibe may have worked in its favor as the people who liked it were obviously passionate about it.
