    I just made up the titles for the poll. They aren't concrete. The concept descriptions all come from the posts of their originators.

    Monsterland: Origins: "My idea was the beginnings of Monsterland and how the various kaiju came to be incarcerated there. I didn't want to get much more in-depth than that because with so many people writing, any more would restrain them a bit too much. I just thought we operate under the general premise of the origins of Monsterland.
    Some more specific ideas I had were showing how each monster gets captured, or difficulties created by confining several kaiju who have never met in the same archipelago, or how they cope with attempted escape, etc. Dang, it sounds so pedestrian in print, but think about it! Perhaps we can "blend" realities, send Heisei MG to capture Anguirus, or the Goten to subdue Manda. We can explain how kaiju who were last seen dead (Kumonga, Varan) were revived, there are tons of options!
    But again, when placing this idea on the poll, I don't want to get more in-depth than 'describe the origins of Monsterland, how it was built, how the kaiju came to get there'."

    Mothra: Deity of Land and Sea: "I'm in this cause I'm itching to use one of my characters and I think I got a title, Mothra:Deity Of Land and Sea.And maybe we can put some of our monsters in it for a big brawl."

    Godzilla: Gotterdammerung: "My idea for the story involves a kaiju equivalent to the Gotterdammerung of Norse Mythology. King Ghidorah would be the equivalent of Loki and Battra and Mothra Thor and Balder. There would be a kaiju version of Fenris, powers of unleashing a black aura that sucks the life out of Monster-Gods. The Odin analogue would be Godzilla, and the Jormundgandr would be Manda."

    Godzilla: Warfare: "An Ultiment war type setting in wich everyone is fighting eachother and kaiju are intraduced as bioweapons created by the opposing sides."

    Godzilla, King of the Ruins: "A postapcolyptic setting where kaiju dominate earth and humans are merely fighitng to survive."

    Kaiju mon': "A world where true daikaiju have long since been absent, Humens have devolped the technology in where they can create "domesticated" kaiju. for example anyone can just go down to the nearest pet shop and pick of a King Seesar puppy or Rodans used as carrier pigions. I like this one the most out of the three I may do something with this myself."

    To ensure that we don't end up with a plot that slightly under half of the writers hate, I allowed for two picks per voter.

    I didn't put a close date on the poll, but I figure we'll give it about four days.

    So it looks right now like it's going to wind up being the Monsterland plotline. Any suggestions for what we should call it? My own idea was Monsterland:Origins, but if anyone has something more clever in mind I hope they tell it.

    I don't know if someone voted after your second post, but Gotterdammerung is tied with Monsterland (which is ironic, because that was my second vote, so I'm endangering my own story). And I had thought of the title "Monsterland: Coming in 1999!", but yours is better.

    Yeah, now Monsterland: Origins, Mothra:Deity Of Land and Sea and Godzilla: Gotterdammerung are all tied for first. If that doesn't change within the next 6 hours or so I'll just make a tiebreaker poll between just those three.

    It is a hard choice, since all three of them are very catchy.

    Monsterland: Origins is the one that has appealed to me the most, mostly because it will allow us to take the Showa films and put background behind the characters of those films.

    The others reek of bad plots. The only interesting one being the post-apocalyptic storyline, which has some potential if handled properly.

    My apologies: It was supposed to be decided on a while ago but it was prolonged by a tie. Now the most open ended story-line is at first (with all of 4 votes) and I'm uncertain as to whether we should jump on that or wait and see if anything changes. Since I'm the first on the roster to write I'm asking the rest of you now whether I should start writing presently or give this poll more time. If you guys give me the go ahead I'll get to work on the first instalment and EM can proceed with giving this thing a sub-board.

    Edit: A third course of action is to make another poll with only the top three choices as options. I kind of like this idea best but by all means let me know if you disagree. I'm not "the boss" of this process, just the one trying to orchestrate it.

    I say elemnaite the polls that have no votes and throw in a recast of all those with votes without the 2 vote system. especcilly since I'm not about to start writeing anything for Mothra: deity of land and sea when theres not even the slightest bit of idea structure to it. No offense QD but all you given us is a tital no real plot concept or structure.

    Exactly why I did not like it. I don't mind Mothra and all her stuff, but there's absolutely nothing to go on other than Mothra being in the spotlght somehow.
