First one done, many more to go!
Now that the Gremlin Spy is finished, I'm currently making plans for the next story and the extra features (yes, including some achievements). So, please be patient, and hopefully I'll get these plans completed in time.
Stay tuned for more decision-making!

Poll time!
While you ware waiting for the next update, here's a little question for you. What type of bonus rounds would you like to see in the the next stories? State your suggestions as clearly as possible so I can consider the application of your ideas.

@Snowdusk
What do you mean by "Bonus rounds"?

@Ebil-Bunny
If you have read The Gremlin Spy, you will notice that occasionally, we will be having bonus rounds instead of usual chapters. Bonus rounds are usually laid back, and they're mainly for fun. Some bonus rounds are specially made to decide crucial decisions. They also offer a wider sense of possibility.
Things to note:
1. Bonus rounds can be made purely for fun!
2. They can decide the ultimate turn of the storyline.
3. They let the players get more interactive with the story, compared with ordinary chapters.

Bonus Round ideas...hm.
I really enjoyed the one where you gave the ability for us to pick our idea of what the character would do next, and then what would possibly happen after that. It gives a sense of creative license to us, and I really think it'd be cool to implement every once in a while.
Overall, I enjoyed all the bonus rounds - you did a good job working through them. If I happen to think of anything more later, I'll add it in. :)

@Snowdusk
When are you going to make a new story?

@Ebil-Bunny
Soon. But note that I'm planning not just one, not two, but three stories so that you can pick your favourite one. I need to make many plans in the meantime, so be patient :)

Can do!
Okay dokay then. I'm supporting you! :)

Greetings!
Now's the time to vote again! For now, we have three stories up for voting, and one of them is going to be your gateway to the next adventure! Each of them has their own unique storylines which will lead you to different adventures, so pick according to your own preferences. But be careful what you wish for, and choose wisely! (As usual, pick only one choice.)
I. Lost in Time
There was once an elevator which has stationed itself in the Town Square of Haven... until it mysteriously disappears. Was it gone for good, or is there a trick at work? Discover the secrets of an unknown being, and unravel the mysteries of Cradle through the past and future!
II. Rise of the Legion
Strange cases of disappearing knights are increasing tremendously, and there have been reports of Trojan troops invading the Clockworks. Are these happenings related at all? Facing a certain danger for the very first time, will anyone be safe from the forces of destruction?
III. Another Favour
The second anniversary of the knights’ arrival to Cradle is coming soon, and Biscotti appears to have bumped into trouble again. Do you have what it takes to save the grand party of the Spiral Order from propelling itself towards total havoc yet again?
Note: The rest of the stories which are not picked will be held off until the chosen story ends. They may be available again to be voted on.

@Tevokkia
Yeah I know, that wibbly-wobbly, timey-wimey stuff... really mind-boggling xD
@Infernus-Dragneel
Detective skills alone wouldn't quite suffice. You will have to fight your way through ;)

It better be past AND future. I hated those books where you have two completely separate adventures that don't affect each other...
By the way, have you heard of this typing site that mainly does choose-your-stories? I introduced Tevokkia to this site, although I have yet to see her on it.

@Vinnydime
It would be great if you can tell me the name of that website, or provide me the web address. I'll be happy to try it out!
Vie, 01/11/2013 - 04:38

I'd like a #1, please!
I like the idea of exploring what Cradle was like in the past and in its possible future! :) Although, if it really will hurt Tev's head to read it, I'm fine with #2. ^_^

I choose 3, but my second one would be 1. I wasn't here during the first biscotti event, but this seems interesting.

Now for the first results!
I guess we have waited long enough. Here is what you've voted for:
I. Lost in Time 3 votes
II. Rise of the Legion 3 votes
III. Another Favour 2 votes
I. and II. gets the most votes equally, so time for another voting session! As the third choice received the lowest vote, it will be removed from the voting list. Make up your decisions and get picking again! Note that you are free to change your previous vote according to your preference.
Will it be...
I. Lost in Time, or
II. Rise of the Legion

We already did a mission like that in-game, with beating up Trojans and fiends. It'd be pretty boring to do another routine mission.
Dom, 01/13/2013 - 11:07

Rise of the Legion!
I'm sure it won't be routine.

Dom, 01/13/2013 - 11:45

Yes, I can assure you, if it's merely a routine, I wouldn't even think of using it as a story. Besides, you guys won't vote on a story which is "simply a routine", right?

@Fleet-Miss-Gun
Not anymore. Hawxindanite made the tie-breaking choice :)
The votes were casted, and you've made your choice...
Rise of the Legion shall be the upcoming adventure story!
Stay tuned, and always be on the look out!
(Note: The next story will most probably be published in the Treasure Vault within a week, so be patient!)
Edit: Hang on a second there... someone called a last-minute vote.

Can you fix your spelling?

@Fleet
Please feel free to chill out over the spelling of other forum-goers; many of them are fairly young, and many more of them have English as their second language. ... and we all make typos from time to time.
Beside that, nothing in his post is spelled incorrectly; he just has an odd mish-mash of languages.

I'm really sorry
I'm really sorry Burakou-Shadow, but I would have to cancel your vote. After the result is posted, any votes cast after that will not be counted. So Rise of the Legion will still receive the majority vote as it had.
Remember that the rest of the stories that are not voted up may still get a chance for another voting session! I'll put both of them on queue (you can take a look at the main post), with the priorities shown in descending order.
Due to the unexpected increase of audience the story may receive, I will put up a few basic rules as a guideline. Also, the achievements are up for view right now! Some contain details on how you can achieve it, some will forever remain as a secret, until someone actually completes it. Some achievements, however, are exclusively rare ones which may only be obtained once by that player. Once you get it, it will remain locked and no one else is able to get that achievement!
Check out the rules and list of achievements here!
What is all this about?
Basically, this is a fan fiction of the Spiral Knights universe in Cradle, but the readers have the option to twist, manipulate and direct the storyline after each chapter. There will be up to multiple paths provided for your choosing, and you get to vote on any path you wish to take. The choice with the highest vote will be the next course of the story. Additionally, you will receive points for each vote cast. There are also bonus rounds in place of usual chapters, where you get to exploit a great advantage, or fall hard for failing.
Rules of participation:
Updated: 18th January 2013
... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ...
Points:
Every player who takes part in a story can earn points for themselves. The more you contribute, the more points you earn!
Simply cast a vote, and you earn one point per vote! Bonus rounds can give you a chance to earn 2 points!
Whenever a story is finished, all players can redeem their points for prizes! (See below)
Points earned by players are non-transferrable.
... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ...
Prizes:
10 pts. - Random material roll, ranging from 0* to 5* (I'll be using the list randomizer)
30 pts. - 3000 cr
50 pts. - 100 CE
100 pts. - Mysterious reader-exclusive prize from Snow! (limited)
200 pts. - Super mysterious gift! (limited)
