This is a poll covering in alphabet order all Fighting Fantasy amateur FF. There are about 160 amateur FFs, conveniently about 80 in each half of the alphabet, so each poll will cover a few letters up to around 20. YOU will be able to vote for up to 5 if you have heard of, played, like or love any of these adventures, with the intent being to choose our favourite half, few, and very favourite amateur FFs, along the way we can discuss these adventures and what we like\dislike about them. Each poll will be for one week. Hovel of the Vampire seems to have a computer pic by its entry, I don't know if that maybe means the title has a lovely computer pic, or the whole thing.

I was taking something of a break from the forum when these were posted. Perhaps I could have hyped my own work – but then again nobody else seems to have done that. (Presumably actually voting for your own efforts was discouraged!) One question: what were the criteria for inclusion here? I'm assuming that my Murderous Mire and the group written The Aleff were excluded because they're based on specific FF books and those are a different category. But whilst I see Hovel here and Creature of Hangover in another poll, Festivities of Fury is absent. This is a poll covering in alphabet order all Fighting Fantasy amateur FF.

The criteria is anything listed in Titannica's FF Amateur Gamebook entry, which is inconsistent both in terms of what it includes or doesn't and the way in which it uses the letter T (perhaps it needs to be re-written?). I don't see anything particularly wrong with an author voting for their own work or an author or fan adding their entry to Titannica, with so few people voting I'm inclined to believe some did. |

I assume that you're referring to my beautiful and much celebrated cover art: Your cover art is cool, except I can't make out the top title words which seem to be pink\cyan on blue, I would change so they don't clash (red on bright green by contrast is very readable). |

Ah yes, my grasp of colour contrast is sometimes not the best. A lighter sky would have been preferable. (Click to enlarge)  |
