AARland Choice AwAARds 2011 (Round 4)

[Mr. Capiatlist]

AARland Choice AwAARds 2011 (Round 4)
In this round, all AARs updated in 2011 are eligible, provided they were started before January 1st, 2012 (EST). You can choose which category each AAR most represents or you can ask the author for guidance.

Voting will close on February 1st, 2012 with the results to be posted soon after. First a few rules:

1. There will be NO voting via PM. Any PM votes will be disregarded.
2. The Open category at the bottom of the page is for any game that does not have its own category. So no Vicky, HoI, EU or CK AARs here. The open category is NOT for interactive AARs.
3. You cannot vote for the same AAR more than once per ballot.
4. An AAR requires at least two votes to win.
5. If an AAR wins more than one category, it only wins the one it got the largest number of votes in.
6. Voting for yourself is not permitted.
7. Must have been started BEFORE January 1st, 2012.
8. Must have updated in 2011.
9. Your ballot MUST contain links to be valid, even if the AAR has already been posted.

If you break a rule, you will be given a friendly reminder. If your vote has not been updated to reflect these rules by February 1st, the entire ballot will be discarded. These ballots will be edited to show they've been discarded.

Happy voting, good luck, and please promote these awards in your AARs and signatures.

Rae, I very much appreciate the vote for Locarno, but I don't think it could be considered in the Narrative category. It has always competed as Gameplay. Thank you though! I'm honored!
