    The rating is 4.41, so technically it doesn't seem to qualify. Either we make an exception, because there's really plenty of plot to go through (it goes from pre-Hogwarts up to fourth year - a lot of authors would have made that into 4 stories), or we just wait and see if the rating goes up (only a few people need to vote 5/5 for it to qualify).

    I certainly think it's good enough to go in.

    I'm finally subscribed now that I'm back from vacation. Not sure if I got a bump from the C2, but my numbers have been kind of down this month since I haven't updated on FF.net in a while.

    Edit: I also agree that the Hero's Path deserves a spot.

    Attempting to shortcut to the C2 through Google shows the greatest of us all. According to Google. Does Google get a vote in the library?

    Heh. Googling "Fanfiction: the best C2" lists DLP's C2 as the sixth on the first page, as pretty much the only actual listed C2. Google knows its stuff.

    It's ultra-lulzy that the only thing the author ever wrote was that anti-DLP thing.

    I can only assume his other account was Stained Future.

    Dead is my guess, as sad as it is. Or just...sudden Real Life things that caused fanfiction to drop off his radar. Life happens.

    Holy Shit, it is. I am one unobservant motherfucker - I wondered why I was getting so many new hits...

    Five years after I've published CR and now it's gotten popular. :rolleyes:

    Edit for Schro: I have and am now working on fixing the next two and writing chapter seventeen.

    Did you get around to fixing the clichéd beginning?

    The first chapter has been replaced, and now yields immeasurable amounts of awesome.

    So...

    Is it just me or has the influx of people joining the C2 tapered off a bit?
