Vote for your favourite Thief 2 fanmission of the year 2012! :)
"Others" includes the following missions: Prezent, The Perfect Job, Unknown Danger
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.

It’s a shame that you couldn’t include Prezent in this poll, but fully understandable as it’s in Polish and a nightmare to work out what to do if you don’t know what the goals are, but it’s a really good map, stuffed to the brim with great humour and some very clever ideas. I asked Timon if I could release a Google translated version but he declined my suggestion. I’ve tried to write a walkthrough but found it’s not easy to do when the goals, street names, AI names and plot is in a foreign language and your trying to be respectful to the author’s request not to fully translate the mission, maybe one day I’ll get to finish it.

Since it´s pretty quiet here, I´ll just give MY thoughts. I voted for:
Better off dead: An amazing fanmission from the amazing sensut. There is no fanmission of his that is not great in my eyes.
Bones: Part 1: I must have played this fanmission at least 3 times already and seeing it here in the poll gives me the feeling that I want to replay it yet again :D. I don´t think there ever was a part 2 though, sadly.
Cathedral of St. Vincent: Loved the mystery part and playing detective.
Pestis Cruenta: I came only recently to this amazing mission from Haplo who is a master in telling great stories.
Reunification (Campaign): A very nice campaign from the amazing Beltzer. It´s not my favourite fanmission of his, but it was his first and that alone deserves some big respect because it is very well done and enjoyable to play.
Reunion with Basso: A campaign from one of my favourite fanmission authors Zappenduster. I didn´t even write notes down for it, because when I see that he´s the author I just now that I love it.
Prezent: Unfortunately without an english translation, but I got the chance to play it and I have to say the mission is awesome. High quality, great architecture and things to find out. If only it were in english, it be on the top of this poll for sure.
I definitely understand why "A Better Tomorrow" gets this many votes. It´s a very good mission and people that love creepiness and horror will love it. Just... not me... :rolleyes:
"Darkstone Gem Chapter 1: Unconventional Intermediator" I have not yet played even once, but it is now on my To-Play-List. :)

Finally, You're getting into a decade that I remember more of the FM's. :joke:

For me it's the opposite, I haven't played many FMs for the past 15 years, don't have experience with ANY from this list! :(

Sounds like you need to quit your day job and do some catching up. :cheeky:

I'm not surprise that For a better Tomorrow won, but I am a little surprised that Cryptic Realms and Finals at the Academy didn't do better, both are pretty awesome missions.
