Here's one with the name-votes properly assigned (I think):
Vote Tally : Puella Magi Imperatrix Mundi, or: Wherein Half Of Japan Tries To Kill You | Page 345 | Sufficient Velocity
##### NetTally 1.7.9

[x] Tell Minami to...
-[x] ...do her stealth thing and do what she can assist--just be careful of getting in the crossfire.
[x] Fight defensively and attempt to secure a parley via brainmail
-[x] Fight...
--[x] You could really use a way to deflect attacks if you're going to keep Minami safe. Use shockwaves to parry attacks. Big shockwaves if she sends a bunch of little stuff, more focused ones if she manages to launch something heavy.
--[x] Use shockwaves to blast away the small projectiles she's forming.
--[x] Explode the dense columns; they're either lances heavy enough to maybe injure you or definitely injure Minami, or they're worse like a railgun or something.
-[x] Brainmail...
-[x] Play softball.
--[x] Ask her why she's attacking you. Clear up ~wacky sitcom misunderstandings~, if any.
---[x] If that isn't enough, tell her that you're incredibly strong and she has basically no way to win, but that's okay because you don't actually have to fight! If she's willing to stand down, you are.
[x] If railguca refuses to parley...
-[x] Explode the ground underfoot with a beam to disorient and intimidate, then reiterate your demand to stand down.
-[x] Call for a warning shot from Minami if possible.
-[x] Mercy is a power you could really use right now. Try to set a shockwave to stun.
--[x] If that fails, use shockwaves to try to injure her enough to induce her surrender, and demand her surrender via brainmail.
---[x] If that doesn't seem to be working, shoot a hand or foot.
No. of Votes: 12

[X] Brainmail the railguca.
-[X] Welcome her to Nagamioka. Inform her that you understand that she was worried about being kicked out, but you weren't here to do that.
-[X] However, she needs to stop now, or someone might get hurt for no good reason.
[X] If she throws the shrapnel at you, sweep it aside but don't retaliate.
-[X] Make sure it doesn't hit Minami.
[X] Keep an eye on those large piles, though, and destroy them if she doesn't stop attacking.
-[X] Ask Minami to go into stealth if you're forced to do that.
No. of Votes: 6

[x] Fight...
- [x] Pump random surges of POWER into her magic so that she can't properly control her metal anymore. No need to try and take control yourself; just make it so she can't properly control it.
[x] While you fight, try talking to your opponent via brainmail.
- [x] Try to talk her down peacefully. Point out that she didn't overwhelm you in the initial assault if that was her plan, so she has nothing to lose by stopping a moment to talk now.
[x] Tell Minami to...
- [x] ...fall back and assist however she can from long range. ...you probably should have asked what kind of weapon she uses.
No. of Votes: 3

[x] Fight...
- [x] For interference, preventing her from attacking
-- [x] Focus on the dense columns, whatever they are.
[X] "You are being very uncool right now. Do I go to your house and blow up your construction sites? No!"
[x] Tell Minami to...
- [x] ...do her stealth thing and do what she can assist--just be careful of getting in the crossfire.
- [x] Keep an eye to see if kimono girl is moving in response to the fight.
No. of Votes: 1

[X] DarkLight140
No. of Votes: 1

Total No. of Voters: 23
@Echo, unless there's something you're doing with it that I'm missing, recommend you switch from the old votetally program to GitHub - Kinematics/NetTally: Program to tally quest votes in various forums.

Last time I tried it wouldn't run under wine/mono on my computer and I was too lazy to grab the source code and figure out why.
Ah, ugh. This is why I run virtual machines instead of trying to make compatibility layers work. I'll always be happy to post a tally for you if I'm around and the vote is ugly like this.
 
I'm terribly amused that under veybast's tally, it's officially called plan red team.

How to steal credit, red tactics 101

We need a blue team to stop us
 
I don't like that we're getting Minami involved. It probably won't help, it undermines the whole "WE ARE THE STRONGEST" message, and it might lead to her being found.
A sniper with magical stealth is pretty intimidating on her own, so I'm not worried about detracting from the overarching message that railguca can't win so she should have a nice chat instead. As for the stealth, even if Minami's stealth is defeated, Yui will be a threat that railguca must defend against by the time we get to a possible sniper interrupt. I don't think it's a big risk, and it might be the thing that pushes railguca to negotiate.
 
Experimental attempt at character profiles that at least has pictures to look at
So, one of the things I've been working on as part of updating the data post is a way to take the character profile info and generate all the BBCode garbage to make tabs and tables the way I want, so that I can edit stuff as the quest goes along and just re-generate the post's coding without having to fight with copy and pasting data into a template by hand or whatever.

Anyway, point is, I did things and they kinda work. How does this look for the character profile stuff?

Obviously lots of actual data is missing. But it's easy to add in, now!

1.9k post? Huh, didn't expect the update so soon....

Yeah... I really don't think there are 1.9k words in there. Is it counting the BBCode tags as words...?

In any case, votes are closed, gonna start on the actual update now. Sorry for the false alarm!
 
Shinobu is going to have to do more work if she wants to be considered a main character.

I dunno, given how often "ugh we really should do something about Shinobu" comes up when discussing votes... :V

But hey, another benefit of my new set up is that I can rearrange the tab pages and which characters are where super easily!
 
... Am I supposed to feel bad that I can't remember who Shinobu was supposed to be?

She's the other meguca who goes to Yui's school. :V EDIT: By which I mean she's the purple one on the right in that picture on the default page of the tabpocalypse above.

See chapter 3.4 and 3.5 for the conversation with her.

That table does unspeakably horrible things to my smartphone.

But, having looked at it on a computer, I do like the format in general. It has a lot of holes in it (where is Tadashi's profile entry, @Echo?) but it's a promising start.

And Minami's listed charm point made me smile.
 
Tables are bad with phones :(

That table does unspeakably horrible things to my smartphone.

Yeah, I really don't think there's anything I can do about that. Not using the tabs and stuff would make the post gigantic by the time everything is filled in, which has its own problems. And every other option I can think of would be clunky and awkward in general.

I'm open to suggestions if anyone has ideas...

Yeah, there's a lot of missing entries in general. That's why I posted a sample here, instead of actually updating post on the first page of the thread. :V

And Minami's listed charm point made me smile.

A few of the other characters have bonus entries like that (e.g. Chou and Maiko). I'm also open to suggestions or ideas for those. :V
 
Blargh, getting tired already and writing is being slow. Looks like the update's gonna have to wait until tomorrow, sorry.
