    The 2009 Iron HeAARt Award - Vote for Best Completed AAR

    2009 Iron HeAARt



    Voting Thread


    We've checked the AARs. We've held the nominations and found those you think ought to run for this award. And we've come up with 5 outstanding AARs from which to choose.

    We have 30 days from today to read through the AARs and cast an informed vote for the AAR you feel the best completed for the past year. Feel free to add a link to this in your signature (within rules of course) or to post a link in your AARs. Let's get the word out. I'll leave the thread unstickied for now hoping you might tell us what made you vote for the AAR you did. If it gets buried too quickly, we'll sticky it then. For now...

    The Nominees

    I am torn between Ireland, ascend! and Furious Vengeance. Both such excellant works. Both of them small yet perfectly formed.

    It's like Sophie's Choice!

    I vote for Furious Vengance - A 1944 UK AAR by El Pip. I vote for this AAR because there is something magical about seeing El Pip take his "Paradox really screws up British AI" aggression out on the whole world.

    If this was Ireland Ascend, the Duffyists would be stuffing the ballot boxes and raising a pint of Guiniken.

    If this was Furious Vengance, El Pip would have created an event to declare British hegemony over the poll and exiled the British Labour Party to Sweden.

    Since neither is an option, just vote. There is still time.

    No if this was Furious Vengance Sweden would long since have ceased to exist.

    There are however two whole weeks and more to vote in, so not only is there still time there is in fact no rush. At the moment.
    Inevitable Defeat - Slovakia '44 - The award winning characters Tiso and Tuka attempt to save Slovakia from defeat and destruction. It probably wont end well. It definitely did win an AARland Choice Comedy Award. Now Back from the Dead and updating.

    The Butterfly Effect: A British AAR - The finest slower-than-real-time British AAR on the board.

    Furious Vengeance - A 1944 UK AAR - My actual best work - Winner of the 2009 Iron HeAARt Award

    Lesser of Two Evils: Germany in a Draka World
    Your life is your life don’t let it be clubbed into dank submission.
    Be on the watch there are ways out.
    You can’t beat death but you can beat death in life, sometimes.
    And the more often you learn to do it the more light there will be.
    Your life is your life.
    Know it while you have it.
    The gods wait to delight in you.

    Just out of curiosity (and the fact I just found this thread), but why did my HoI II AAR not get up here (the nominating thread, that is)? I finished it on the last day of 2009. Did you have to PM it in?

    Edit: Nevermind, I need to learn how to read I should have seen that other thread sooner! I also guess technically mine does not count, as I am making a Part II to it in AoD.
