Also, since a few people seem confused, voting isn't actually closed. When I close it, I'll say so on the tally.
Honestly, if people still want to vote then I'm inclined to let them do so. I sort of thought that voting was done when I tallied, but it obviously isn't, so I can wait a while.

@Raiseth tag this on the end of the vote?

Fuck.
I'm sorry, @Kaizuki, I just can't.
I sorta arrived at a conclusion that calling Sayaka dumb is insensitive and stuff. ( even though it's really funny and were I not Yuma who has an emotional bomb in need of defusing on her hands, I would totes vote for this )
Everyone who voted for Kaizuki, namely
@Doctor_Hayden
@tygerbright
@Redshirt Army
@Spectral Waltz
@angelofwhim
@Slayer 10321
Take a look at my vote at your convenience.
If you don't like it, I won't hold it against you for voting for something else.
Edit: btw, that other vote has more followers than our powers combined. That vote is the one hypercompetent Arc Villain that Power Rangers have to fight for about half of a season.
Yeeeeah, time to sleep.

Yeah, I bet AsukaQuest participants thought that too.
And where are they now, Kai?
Holding hands!
Holding their fucking hands with Rei!
Handholding, Kaizuki!
I would rather not take the chance.
TL;DR
I hope that it's humor quest, but then I thought PMAS is a humor quest too. I have no idea what gave me that impression, tho.

[X] Yuma wants to clarify something.
-[X] QB just said that he created a situation where Mami Tomoe will be killed if nobody helped her.
-[X] He admitted that, had anyone tried, he would have prevented them from contacting Mami.
-[X] He planned everything so that, for Mami to survive, one would have to sacrifice their everyday existence and become a Magical Girl, forever fighting Witches.
-[X] Sooo why is it Sayaka's fault and not QB's again?

Kay, I've got to sleep.
It's two a.m. and I have to wake up in five hours, sooo.
If someone can write a really convincing argument that will convince not only me, but Lord Chungus as well, that he will not, in fact, go Plus Ultra Urobutcher on everything we love the second someone says an insensitive thing or casually insults someone, then, please, pretty please, be my guest.
Cause
[] Don't date that girl, Big Sis. She's really dumb.
is gold.

Kinda seems to me like Raiseth's vote and mine do basically the same things (recount what happened and explain it's clearly QB's vote). Raiseth's focus is on how being a meguca is suffering, whereas mine is more about pointing out Mami's alternate options (and having Madoka involved. And hugs.)
Maybe we could merge them? Something like:
[] Yuma wants to clarify something.
-[] QB just said that he created a situation where Mami Tomoe will be killed if nobody helped her.
-[] He admitted that, had anyone tried, he would have prevented them from contacting Mami.
-[] He planned everything so that, for Mami to survive, one would have to sacrifice their everyday existence and become a Magical Girl, forever fighting Witches.
-[] Sooo why is it Sayaka's fault and not QB's again? He knew the witch was too strong for Mami, yet instead of telling her as much so she could retreat, he tried to trick people into contracting. Madoka, you tell her!
[] Get Madoka to speak up.
[] Hug Sayaka
-[] With Madoka

Both options are good, but both have things I don't like that much:
- Yours has Madoka's own guilt trip, potentially
- Raiseth has focusing on being a MG as a bad thing, which would be OK if it was said by anyone but Yuma. (for all the hardships her life post wish is an absolute improvement from her life before)
It's just that I dislike your point against more than Raiseth's
As for your composite vote on the post I quoted, I'll check it when I'm not on a phone

Hmmmmmm
So people seem to be split as to whether or not [ ] Don't date that girl, Big Sis. She's really dumb, will get you punished.
As @Kaizuki pointed out, this is mainly a light-hearted humor quest. The Golden End is more reachable, the Bad End is harder to get, and you're less likely to have a Bad Time along the way. Hell, the entire point is to have a good time, but I subscribe to the idea that happy moments only shine when you have sad moments to compare them to, and victories only matter when failure was a possibility.
That being said, this right now is not a humorous scene.
In fact, it's a rather serious scene.
And, most importantly, this is a quest. Certain options will get you different results, some better some worse, so while the stakes may not be nearly as high as PMAS or SayakaQuest, that doesn't mean they don't exist. I don't think any of you would enjoy a quest where every option was the right option and success is inevitable, and I probably wouldn't enjoy writing it.
The same goes for a quest where every oversight results in a dead Meguca, and I'd say that'd be worse, but this is very much not that quest.
Now Kai's vote, as it was originally put forth, wouldn't have fucked you over too badly. It just wouldn't. But that doesn't mean that it would have succeeded in what you want to do, showing Sayaka Mami's death wasn't her fault. Best case, Sayaka will find it funny and the mood will lighten up. Maybe Sayaka and Kyoko's combined embarrassment overwhelms the self-loathing and Sayaka stops her breakdown. Worst case scenario?
"You're right. I'm stupid. So stupid..."
Well no, there's no way I'm going to set you so far back over a single vote, but my point is that it would have been a risk. Because the issue isn't whether I appreciate the humor- I rather do, actually- it's whether Sayaka would appreciate it, given her current headspace.
But since the issue is now whether to add [ ] Don't date that girl, Big Sis. She's really dumb to Raiseth's vote, let me give you a little Word of QM:
You'll get much better results having it at the end of Raiseth's vote then you would when it was half of Kai's vote. Timing is important.
Now to address the second half of this, I don't really plan on punishing you for being too silly. Yuma's silly, this quest is silly, I'm silly! That being said, there is a very big difference between punishing and not rewarding. I'll try not to punish you for being silly, but I'm not always going to reward you for it. And of course, there is a limit to when silliness is appropriate; start fooling around in Witch barriers and I'm liable to T R A U M A you to hell and back, but I highly doubt I'll have to do that.
Of course, this is all mostly pointless if people don't switch to @Raiseth's vote, but eh.
TL;DR, yes this is a humor quest, no I'm not the Urobutcher, but while I may not punish you for being silly when the situation is serious I probably won't reward you for it too much.
Edit: Okay, how many people got the "OP, Lord Chungus, has replied with 590 words to the thread Mami Said Knock You Out" and panicked?
Also, voting's still not locked. I'll lock it when I wake up tommorow.

By the way @Slayer 10321 @Kaizuki @Filraen @angelofwhim
And just now @Pyran
The '[x] Raiseth' vote is being counted separately From Raiseth's actual vote in the tally for some reason, you guys may want to switch your votes.

I know, but sometimes GMs don't notice that sort of stuff, I figured it would be good to point it out to make sure the thread was aware, just in case.
