Cool - when's the deadline?

Not sure. Is Frank going to do the poll every time? If he is, then he should set the time limit.

The original idea was per week, but I would suggest making this one aBout 10 days, so it closes midnight on friday 17 may and we have the weekend in which to votem, and can start the next one on a monday.

Could Frank confirm if he is going to do the poll?
 
Sure I'll host again this time. Same thing as before? I'll copy the Drabbles over onto the polling thread so's it's nice and easy to read them.

I'll get the polling started Saturday morning. Anyone who wants a little more time can holler at me using Private Messaging.

Is everyone happy with just two days voting and closing the poll on Monday, High Noon?
 
Flacid Response

After many weeks of flying around the frontier Commander ****** was having great difficulties keeping it up.
Despite many attempts and pulling back hard on the stick, it had no effect, he still couldn't get it back up.
He remembered the last time it worked, it was a beautiful moment.. both bodies sparkling in the night, making sweet synchronised music together with one finally exploding in a orgasmic burst of raptuous light.
Maybe he should have listened to that tech and had his flight control system replaced, too late now.. as the surface of Lave rose sharply to greet him.
 
Feeling deflated

Commander Singleton's eyes filled with tears as he stared at the shiny pink skin of his 1st Mate.
' This is the end old girl ',
he said, as her curled peroxide head sagged to one side.
' I,ve searched maintenance high and low ',
he sobbed.
' But were all out of puncture repair kits '.
' Farewell Darling'
Squeaked the 1st Mate.
' We were great together '.
 
Not to boost my drabbles chances, but ED doesnt just represent Elite Dangerous.. it did mean something before that too!!!

Relaxing

The warm light of a new star stroked the hull of the explorer class vessel as it emerged from hyperspace. A red light started flashing.

'OK, old girl, time for a scrub down'

The pilot unstrapped and, grabbing a handhold, moved towards the storage bay in supple, practiced moves. Once there he placed the nanobot container in the airlock and sealed the inner doors.

Back in the cockpit he sent instructions to activate the nanobots and opened the outer doors.

Then, whilst nanobots crawled over the hull the pilot settled gratefully down into the warm caress of his massage chair.

OK, where we at? I've been away for over a week for my 40th Birthday, and now I'm old I don't have the eyesight to be reading all these pages :) Although I voted on the Combat drabble after a quick read. :p

I don't want to deflate your efforts Scorpio, but you need to inflate the word count from 70 to 100 to qualify the piece as a drabble

@Bikky the subject is 'maintenance'

I have decided on the prize for this weeks contest: it is a direct follow on from last weeks prize....

The winner recieves a pin-up poster of Psykokow (who is NOT wearing his onesie).

For those who dare:

Damn you, any more of that and I'll have to gouge my eyes out :D

I strongly suggets no-one clicks the spoiler tag!!!!!!!!
 
Only two hours voting left and not even the slightest whisper of a bribe. I guess the contestants didn't know how cheaply my vote could be bought. Too late now. I've cast my vote.
 
I've been too busy recently to even read the forums, So I'll skip this vote and will see what comes next time round :(

Gonna have to give up work, just don't have enough time for everything.
