    Think it needs to be put up For Review first before it can get in the C2, I think... and honestly, I'm not entirely sure how tie-ins/omakes get in the Library anyways, if they can get in.

    Victor of contest automatically makes it in. Dunno about the tie-in/prequel bit, though.

    So it's been a while since I kept this actively maintained. Any fics I'm missing?

    Hallowed is in there, right? And I saw lessons with hagrid too. Anarchy hasn't edited his fic yet, but that's what won the Oct contest. Can't think of anything else.

    Yep. And over the next twelve hours I got roughly half the amount of alerts/reviews etc for (at that point) two chapters as I have for the other five stories I have up combined. Impressive stuff.

    Your sig is fucking awesome.

    Edit: I'd update the summary into something a tad more ambiguous though. Firstly you call it an up to date C2, then you announce the June competition winners. :p

    May as well just keep it as:

    I just checked, and you're missing Awaken Sleeper. One of the best HP/Dresden crossovers ever.

    Strange. I'm pretty sure that used to be in the C2. I added it again but I don't know why it wasn't in the C2 anymore.

    I believe this one is missing, now that you mention it.

    Done and done :3

    Sorry it took me nearly a week, but I got out of the habit of checking FanFic Discussion.

    Anyone else with any omissions are probably better off sending me a PM. <3 all.

    So, now that we're #1... :)

    I'd been meaning to mention this, but I didn't want to be a "WHAR UPD8" whore.

    Thought this was noteworthy enough to necro: We are, as of now,

    706

    subscribers ahead of the next C2 in line.

    Well done, ladies and gents.

    I know none of these have been put up in For Review yet, but I figure they probably get in under the Featured Author qualification, all 3 are well established DLP authors with other stuff in the C2.

    http://www.fanfiction.net/s/7993653/4/Wizard-for-Hire
    http://www.fanfiction.net/s/7932022/1/Potter-No-Angst
    http://www.fanfiction.net/s/8379857/1/Criminal-Limit

    There may be a couple others as well, but those three sprang to mind.

    EDIT: On further perusal http://www.fanfiction.net/s/8299839/1/Alexandra-Potter and http://www.fanfiction.net/s/7917665/1/In-Essence-Divided belong in the C2 as well. Taure's certainly a DLP featured author and those are two of his better works.

    If we're now putting in 4 star ones of DLP authors, can I request the inclusion of any of mine (the 4 star ones, I mean)?

    Why are we/you including 4 star stories in the first place? Isn't the point of list to have only 5 star stories?

    They should definitely be in the Library list (which has only library threads - that could be a thing to fix), but adding them to the 5 star list is kind of missing the point of such a list.


    Potter no Angst is 3.67
    Criminal limit is 4.35
    Alexandra is 4.44


    Out of these mentioned, and apparently, added, only two are 5 star stories at this point.
    In Essence divided has 4.51
    Wizard for Hire is 4.52


    p.s. do we really want to open the stream for a discussion what is to be held as a worthy story or not, cause now, we are heading into anarchy and chaos?

    We could just make another community for lower ranked fics that are still written well.

    There isn't really a discussion to be had, Nauro. It's still nmb's group, he decides what goes, ultimately. That said, it's clearly called "5-starred and featured", and I agree with the intentions nmb had.
