Please post to the comments in this thread which patch you think should become part of the official MHI universe and get a cameo in the second MHI book, Monster Hunter Vendetta. (coming Fall 2010 from Baen).
We have 47 entries. Please post the name of the patch in the comments. Please only vote once. We authors are easily confused. Please, tell your friends, post it to your blog, spam the intertubes. (sell more books!) Whoops. That last one was subliminal.
I will leave this open for this week. At the end of the week I’ll count up the votes, figure out the winner and announce it here.
Here is a link to all the patches and the rules:

I’ll put up an offical voting post tomorrow here and on the Facebook page. I don’t get to vote. The winning patch becomes an offical part of the MHI universe, and will be mentioned in Monster Hunter Vendetta. The timing is good, since I’m currently doing the final pass on MHV, and I’ve got just the spot.
On another note, Atomic Nerds wrote up the backstory for their patch.

Magical and radioactive… Sounds like a good bounty to me.
I’ve got a deadline to reach. I have one month to do my final revision of MHV and submit it. If everything goes okay, then MHV will release in Fall 2010.
Now I’m off to edit. I love writing. Hate editing. Writing is fun. Editing is work!
I haven’t listened to this yet. It seemed like it went really well, and the hosts are great guys. Keep in mind that I’ve got a terrible cold, so I don’t always sound that goofy. 🙂
