Eruption for the scripts and mapping as well as originality which I really enjoyed in the beta. Azure Horizons for the expert mapping, great scripting and all done with original tiles etc. rather than relying on some visual aspects of new tiles and such. Lastely I voted for Dark Cry, it's one of the most graphically appealing hacks out there as well as the fact that the story looks very engaging. It's looking to be a great hack. For those I reasons I chose those three.

Is it possible to give Azure Horizons all three of my votes?

I voted for Azure Horizons, Eruption, and Light Platinum.
I really hope Azure Horizons does better than it did in HotM. It saddened me to see such a great hack lose so many times.

I've got Azure Horizons and Ruby Destiny down for sure but my third vote is up in the air. Dark Cry looks promising but I haven't played it. Eruption was OK but nothing too special. And Light Platinum also looks appealing but I haven't played much of it. Eh, I guess I'll postpone voting for a few days.

I voted for Azure Horizons, Life of Guardians and Dark Cry. Light Platinum just has too many problems and I don't understand what the big deal about Eruption is.

I think Azure Horizons is the best by a large margin (even though there are a few hacks that deserve to win more). Life of Guardians deserves a chance because its the most unique (though it doesn't have much else to offer) and Dark Cry just because its better than Light Platinum.

Life Of Guardian for story, script and music.
Light Platinum for nice graphic.
And Eruption for creative scripts.

Pokemon eruption is a go-go for me, for best scripting ever viewed, and also a vote for an overall amazing hack goes to Ruby Destiny: LoG.
