Pick Some Projects; Voting dried up already?

I am but one fox, with many projects to choose from. I can only do so many, so I need you to help me choose which ones. Here is the list of my possible projects:

Definite
Gabbings of Games

Stories
Pick one (in this case, though, you are selecting which one gets updated first - I will essentially be alternating between the two)

Adther Wolves
- Advantages: A bit more whimsical in terms of my writing. I get to be a bit more freeform.

The Great Forest
- Advantages: This seems a bit more polished to me.

Main Project
Pick one

DIM
- Advantages: I have already started and have most of the basic system already laid out.
- Disadvantages: The story part is a bit difficult for me to write. It is beginning to feel like a chore for me, admittedly. There is a lot left to go in terms of story.

Land of Numbers
New project description: My earlier game Does Not Add Up meets Kingdom of Loathing, essentially. A humorous math practice online RPG.
- Advantages: The writing will be a lot more whimsical, almost immeasurably reducing the chance that I will get any form of writer’s block, so you are more likely to see the work actually get done. Also, this will not need illustrations, probably, since a lot is meant to be left to the imagination. Besides, reading is good for you, since this is supposed to be edutainment. In general, I think this project would be more fun than DIM for me.
- Disadvantages: The system may take a lot of work to perfect, more than DIM did. Additionally, choosing this option means that my work on DIM will have been for naught. As well, younger players will be at a disadvantage, not that this game will be competitive.

Side Project
Pick one

First Rise
- Advantages: It’s close to being done already, really. Additionally, it does not take all that much work. Due to its nature, I doubt writer’s block will be a problem.
- Disadvantages: Not much specifically that I can think of.

Jewel Chaos II
- Advantages: An action game, something I usually do not do. This is quite different from the norm.
- Disadvantages: More difficult to program than First Rise, though not by THAT much.



I hope that I am not forgetting anything. Anyway, if something gets outvoted, that does not mean I will never do it. It does mean, however, that it could be a long time.

I haven't been keeping updated on your stories recently, so I'm not going to vote between the stories for now. I may change my answer after I go back and figure out which stories those actually are.

As for the main project, I'd have to put my vote down for Land of Numbers. I'm interested in seeing the full story of DIM, but if you don't really enjoy writing that story, then I think LoN would probably end up being a better game just from drive and motivation.

Side-project... hm. Just based on their existing compatriots, I preferred the first Jewel Chaos to First Rise, so I'm putting my vote down for Jewel Chaos II.

Same as Adam, minus the possibility of ever actually going to read the stories.

Given that the voting seems to have stopped already (really, only two votes?), I suppose the results are clear, except the story (I’ll flip a coin or something).
