Hey, all; I know some of you have been hard on me since I've been too hard on you, and have asked what I've written or planned to write.

Well... I've finally worked up the courage (and/or brain-power) to get not one, not two, but three TL scenarios ready! And the best part is... you get to choose which one I do first.

They're listed in the above poll; brief outlines are below. Whichever one shows the most potential, choose... and I shall bow to the people's will. :)


Are you ready? Then here they are:
  • Rule, Britannicus!: Claudius goes against the wishes of the Senate and takes Lollia Paulina as his third wife; when he dies (some years after OTL), his natural son Britannicus ascends to the throne... and things start to change in Rome, from there.
  • A Bare Bodkin: The Reign of Lusius Quietus: Trajan's final illness takes a little longer to kill him, and so, to the dismay of his wife Pompeia Plotina, he adopts his Berber general Lusius Quietus on his return to Rome. The butterflies spread out from there... including Christianity, architecture, and the war in Parthia.
  • This Was The Charter: A History of Dorrite Rhode Island: A nasty political battle over the right to vote in the state of Rhode Island turns decisively on the support of a surviving President William Henry Harrison... and Tom Dorr's triumph changes Little Rhody for good.
Pick which one (or ones, since it's multiple-choice) you want, state your reasons, and when the poll closes, I'll begin my work on the clear favorite. :)
