    Definitely agree about GL. Sitra Ahra is already in there, but thanks for the recommendation.

    'The Unforgiving Minute' doesn't seem to be in there, despite the fact that I could have sworn it had been added over three months ago? Am I blind, or is it really missing?

    I remember it being there, and it does indeed appear to be missing.

    Added The Unforgiving Minute.

    I didn't see Prince of the Dark Kingdom in the C2. NMB or Zennith must have already got to it.

    Sorry, I wasn't clear in my last post.

    I would have recommended Prince of the Dark Kingdom to be added to the C2, if the author was an active member on DLP.

    Don't think it was ever there to begin with. That being said, had it been, I certainly would have 'got to it'.

    Last time (I hope) I'm going to post an update of numbers in this thread, but as of today we're at 2401 subscribers, making us (as far as I know) the largest C2 on FFNet.

    Well played DLP.

    NMB posts something randomly, gets 30 thumbs up almost immediately. I'm seeing the pattern here. :)

    Obviously, the next step is to form the DLP political party and/or religion :awesome

    The Charter/Summary on ff.net should be updated to feature the May winner, and there are quite a few stories that are 4-5 stars from the contests that were never added (Reprieve, and Ouroboros among others). One or two are being continued after the contests, but most of them are one-shots that have rated high enough to be in the C2 imo.

    The vote score in the contest area itself doesn't count, only when a story gets submitted to For Review is it eligible for the C2 (apart from the monthly winner, of course).

    Huh. I probably should put my own fic that's rated high enough in, shouldn't I?

    Anyways, I could do a check with the recent additions to the library - or Enembee can do it if he wants, because I'll probably be too busy to get to it before the end of the weekend.


    Edit: 1,111th post. I think this is cooler than 500th/100th, etc. Just sayin.

    AFAIK there aren't any new fics in the library that are at 4.5 or above. Memorium may qualify if it doesn't get 0-bombed before getting shuffled into the library, though.

    Not to sound like a shameless self-promoter or anything, but would someone be kind enough to add this to the C2?

    I know crossovers are not huge in general, but reviews for this have been rather sluggish. Thanks.

    It won the contest, it should have been added anyways. Also, Memorium should probably be added - it's got over 30 votes and around a 4.7, so it's unlikely to go under a 4.5 by the time it makes it into the library.

    Silens' fic should be added to the C2 if any of the staff can do it.
