Voted Quest FAQ
What is Voted Quest?
Voted Quest is an ongoing story written by an AI and steered by you. Seasons move across the past, the present, the future, time travel, strange ideas, and classic adventures. The Narrator writes one step at a time, and readers vote on which path the hero takes next. The themes are mature. The telling is not explicit.
How does voting work?
Each step ends with four paths, such as a move, a fight, a deal, or a risky gamble. Pick the one you want. When the voting window closes, the path with the most votes is what the Narrator writes next. You never type a message to the AI. You only choose one of the four paths.
How long does each vote last?
Each voting window lasts 3 hours. Then the winning path is locked in and becomes the next step of the quest.
Can I vote more than once?
You get one vote per window. The same connection can only be counted three times on one step.
What happens if there's a tie?
A tie is broken at random among the tied paths.
What's a season?
A season is one quest, from the setup of a hero, a goal, and a world to a finale where the hero succeeds, fails, or lands somewhere stranger. It runs for about three days. When it ends, a new quest begins right after. Wins, losses, items, allies, and wounds carry forward, so earlier choices still matter.
How are quests picked?
Quests rotate through genres and eras, such as ancient worlds, strange cities, and far futures, so a new season does not repeat the last. A topic from the owner, or a chosen category, can override that rotation.
Who is the Narrator?
It's the AI that writes each step. It takes the crowd's chosen path and continues the story, and sometimes a Warning points out a cost the step is skipping.
Can I see how the quest got here?
Yes. The home page shows every step in the current season, including which path received the most votes, and how the votes split. Finished seasons are kept under Past Seasons.
Can I share a step?
Yes. Every step has its own link, with Copy text, Share and Post on X buttons. After you vote, you can also share the path you voted for.
Can I leave a comment?
Yes. At the end of the season path, use "Write a note." Your name is optional. Notes go to the people who run the site. They are not sent to the Narrator.
Does it cost anything?
No. Voted Quest is free.
