Vote for your favourite Thief 2 fanmission of the year 2004! :)
"Others" includes the following missions: A Guard Called Benny, A Wonderful Reception, Close Encounters, Dead Flower, Gussie's Dream, Having a Ball, Just friends: Part 1, The Masque of the Red Death, The Mystic Lady, Midday Escape, Simple Enough, The Cathedral
General rules for the T2 polls: Demos, very short missions, foreign languages and OM remakes are only included if the space allows it. Same goes for missions that already appeared in one of the T1/TG polls. Big missions with 5 or more missions to play are excluded. There will be a separate poll for them.
Important note: Since there is quite a number of T2 fanmissions released in the year 2004, I cut the poll in 2. The first one is already closed and you can find it here: (

I voted for the Komag Contest 5 mission by Maria Strom-Bestor (Morrgan) and Vigil (Alun Bestor) called Into the Maelstrom. That was a fun little mission!
I also voted for my buddy raetsel's Masque of the Red Death, in Others. Those are the only 2 FMs I can remember any detail about, and I've played them recently, too.
raetsel pulled away from ttlg quite abruptly and shut down her email account very soon after; I always wondered how she was doing now in RL. She was a good friend that I only knew through a connection to Thief/Dromed; I hate that she left so quickly and completely; we had a lot of lengthy conversations about games, Dromed, Thief, and just random stuff... I probably helped her more than anyone else directly, except for maybe Lady Rowena. Just great people. :'(

If there are multiple entries in the "others" section, can I give two votes to that? Pleeease :)
Masque of the Red Death is amongst my favourites, even though it's a small and simple FM.
Just Friends was also an interesting and a bigger FM with a nice story as well as being part 1 of a mission series. I wonder why it didn't make its own entry for the main voting section.
Out of the main entries, Horns of Canzo was my vote.

I'm not sure how that works, but Samantha1 can tell you, I'm sure; it's her show!

That's cool. I think raetsel would be happy to hear that. I know she was really hesitant to release it since she was a bit of a perfectionist (aren't we all sometimes? I know I am) and we finally talked her into it. I think it's fine but you know how those crazy Dromeders can be. :cheeky:

Oh yes of course! As long as the missions you vote for are written down in the comment section, they all count. It´s not possible in the voting system, but I´ll note your two missions down :)

Just friends is also one of my favourites! It was such a tough choice to put it in others! I was looking hours at all the missions from 2004 and couldn´t find another mission to put in others so I had to decide for this one. But yes It´s a great and funny mission with a cool story :)

The Focus.

What a ride Horns of Canzo was

....one of my favourites aswell :D but also Konkurrenten and The Focus! :)
My vote also went to "Others" for the mission Just friends: Part 1. Such a great story with some funny parts and conversations.
Also another nudge to people who vote for "others". Please state in the comment section for which mission you voted. Give it some credit!
