Fast Play and Faster Play

Even though the race was tight yesterday, so that I didn't know which choice was going to win, I was still able to get a head start because I knew how I wanted the story to open. So I only had to write about 1100 words for the sequel, and that went pretty fast. So, a day early, here's the follow up:

Interactive: "Invalid Chapter" 
Public: "Invalid Entry" 
Poll: [Poll completed and deleted]

EDIT

I thought I could get a jump on the next chapter, whichever it was, by writing out those parts that would be common to both choices. I soon realized that the sequel chapter would be more or less a placeholder to sketch out additional, specific choices. This kind of chapter can be written very quickly.

So I wrote them. Both of them. They are now up:

Interactive: "Invalid Chapter"  + "Invalid Chapter" 
Public: "Invalid Entry"  + "Invalid Entry" 

The also come with polls: [Polls completed and deleted]

So, you guys can now vote on which of two choices come next, and also for the sequel to each of those choices. However, I am only going to follow one of those branches. If you guys vote for "Pick two guys for Carmona," I will write the voted-for sequel to "Five Guys." Similarly, if you guys vote for "Pick a guy for Carmona and a girl for Miller," I will write the voted-for sequel to "Five Girls."
