    Well, I *know* Nightmare of Future's Past is in the library, but I am unsure if it was written by a DLPer. A good read too, but incomplete with painfully slow updates, I believe.

    Now you need to continue your noble work with an increased sample size. Get to it.

    This is an impressively dorky and interesting waste of time. I salute you, darklordmike.

    And you know, it's not hard to include Harry Potter Crossovers. Hell, I'll even spend the twenty minutes it'll take to go through the ones over 40K words and make you a list to insert into yours.

    Harry Potter and the Setting Sun by Early-Frosts 1502 Twilight xover
    Gives You Hell by azzie adams 1315 Twilight
    Sphere of Influence by Orodruin 1032 Naruto
    A Light in the Dark by Athenian Grace 1038 Twilight
    Technomagus by esama 1079 Stargate SG-1
    Dark Clouds by Mariel Nightstalker 2219 Twilight
    Naruto and the Goblet of Fire by Reidluver 1229 Naruto
    Once a Wizard, Always a Shinobi by KingofLoosePages 1437 Naruto
    Nothing Left To Hold by Branwen777 3293 Twilight
    Bleeding Sun by DoYouReallySeeMe 1173 Twilight
    Silent Light by Ms Elladora Black 1004 Twilight
    Defy not the Heart by Aewnaur 1312 Twilight
    Guardian by Blueowl 1254 Stargate SG-1
    A Good Offense by JoIsBishMyoga 1680 Yu-Yu Hakusho
    There and Back Again by Jess S1 1215 LOTR
    A New Life in San Francisco by phoenix catcher 1123 Charmed
    Fighting the Gods by phoenix catcher 1977 Stargate SG-1
    Cerulean Silver vs Amber Gold by hikaranko 1377 Full Metal Alchemist
    It's All In The Blood by Sam-453 2316 Buffy
    The Midnight Hour by Branwen777 3216 Twilight
    Desert Warrior by Shade Dancer 1495 Mummy
    Fishing off the Roof by Warriora 1126 Charmed
    The Magical Chronicles: Power of Shinobi by daybefore.misery 1009 Naruto
    Over the Hills and Far Away by The Red Dragons Order 1806 Naruto
    Troika Parallel by Shivakashi 1393 Naruto
    (My BGE Firefly cross is already in the list)
    Crumpets Aren't My Style by Marz1 1107 Stargate SG-1
    History of Magic by Lizeth 1518 Yu-gi-oh

    And that's it for all the stories classified as Crossovers on ff.net with one of the two fandoms being Harry Potter. That's not to say there aren't more fics mixed in to other fandoms, but that's the > 1000 from these 15 pages going in reverse chronological order.

    And as a correction,
    Nope. Just it and the Marriage Stone are the most reviewed Harry Potter fics on ff.net. I'm fairly certain there's at least a handful of Twilight fics with more reviews. I don't want to dig too deep but I've already spotted Reviews: 14977, Reviews: 13625, Reviews: 14239, Reviews: 12005, Reviews: 12495... Just for sheer volume I am almost as impressed as I am horrified by these two:
    Reviews: 11186 - Updated: 3-3-09 - Published: 1-2-09 - Complete
    and it's sequel so far
    Reviews: 12785 - Updated: 7-2-09 - Published: 3-12-09

    2 fics over 10K reviews each already this year?

    Fire doesn't burn hot enough to kill that sort of vermin. For that, God created spousal abuse.

    Holy shit. Thats a lot of reviews in a VERY short time. I seriously wonder if it's possible, or if someone made a review bot or something to spam their stories with drivel..

    Ah Twilight....

    Any up for writing a pre-epilogue 200x story where HP is dismayed at Twilight (Ginny is a fangirl and he dumps her ass because of it) and uses his powers as the Master of Death to travel in time (lol) for the sole reason of exterminating the author of Twilight?

    A Vampire!Harry who instead of being emo and gay kills the author of Twilight for embarrassing and humiliating the race could be funny, in a very stupid way.

    I didn't know Twilight had such a huge review fanbase, if I a was a review whore I'd probably switch to writing that kind of shit.

    If you wanted every review to be along the lines of "*squeee!* That woz so totaly awsum!" then yeah, switch to Twilight. That fanbase is even more retarded than the Naruto one >_>.

    Ala The Potter Tradition of Red Vampire!Harry moves to wherever the Cullen live during the first book. Bella and Edward then fall in love with him, and after some time he dusts Edward (sorry, watched way too much Angel/BtVS) for trying to hit on him and ignores Bella, who later kills herself for some lame, teenage angsty reason...Like someone stole her Ipod.

    Hmm, I could get used to that, and all it cost me was my self-respect...

    Wow, I am totally going to write that fic! It is the vampire sex that that sucked me in, oh and the fact that they bite, cooool. Two chalk faced males going at it with a suicidal goth in between, slitting her wrists so the boyfriend can keep eating, I better hurry before someone writes this amazing story! It is going to win a Pulitzer!

    Troika Parallel was/is a guilty pleasure of mine. It's actually a triple cross, Naruto/HP/InuYasha, but was surprisingly good. Or at least, that's what I recall. I read it during my early time here @ DLP, so my bs sense might not have been developed yet.

    I've been reading FF for far too long, I recognize/have read way to many of those fics.

    Hm... None of which have fandoms that I follow as their cross. Speaking of which... I need to update my crossover. It'll be over 40K if I do that, though I much doubt it'd make it into most reviews. I mean, I crossed Harry Potter with Forever Knight, and Forever Knight was a cult hit show, thus being an obscure fandom.

    Sorry, Zero. I've never ready any Naruto.

    Not a chance, neo. But if you'd like to go through mugglenet, HPFF, fictionalley, siye, and portkey for us, I'll add the results to the list. :)

    Ha, cheers nonjon. I added the x-overs to the list. Nothing changed, really, except Branwen's Twilight fics moved into the Top 100, and the 'Other Slash' category got a boost. That's right, 20 out of 27 of those x-overs were slash. <shakes head at the horror of it all>

    With the addition of dellacouer's fics and the 27 new x-overs, the complete list now has 901 fics in it. For those who were curious, I went back and unpacked the 'odd ship' category so you could see Harry/Fleur, Harry/Luna, etc. I hadn't realized there was so much Sirius/Hermione, Ron/Hermione, and Harry/OC in there. The new percentages:

    Primary Ship/Genre:............Number:...............Percentage:
    No Ship/Odd Ship*..................230.......................25.5%
    Draco/Hermione......................111.......................12.3%
    Harry/Draco SLASH.................84..........................9.3%
    Lily/James.............................78.........................8.6%
    Severitus (usually no ship).......70..........................7.8%
    Harry/Ginny...........................70.........................7.8%
    Snape/Hermione.....................45.........................5.0%
    Harry/Hermione......................43.........................4.8%
    Other SLASH (20 x-overs).......38...........................4.2%
    Harry/Snape SLASH................28..........................3.1%
    Draco/Ginny..........................22.........................2.4%
    Harry/Voldemort SLASH...........15..........................1.7%
    Ron/Hermione........................10.........................1.1%
    Sirius/Hermione......................9...........................1.0%
    Harry/OC..............................9...........................1.0%
    Remus/Sirius SLASH................8............................0.9%
    Harry/Tonks..........................7...........................0.8%
    Harry/Fleur............................4...........................0.4%
    Harry/Luna............................4...........................0.4%
    Snape/Lily.............................4...........................0.4%
    Rose/Scorpius........................4...........................0.4%
    Remus/Tonks.........................3...........................0.3%
    Harry/Susan..........................3...........................0.3%
    Harry/Cho.............................2...........................0.2%

    Also, I'm not sure about the other big sites, but I know there's at least one fic out there that has more reviews than 'An Aunt's Love' and 'The Marriage Stone.' Check out this little gem from portkey:


    Last Dance by Amynoelle and Heaven - Reviews(12133) - H/Hr
    SPOILERS: Books 1 - 5 Contents: R
    Description: A soap opera style fic about the next generation of characters from the core couples of Dirty Dancing. There's still lots of H/Hr in here!
    Published: 05/06/05 Updated: 27/06/09 Status: In Progress
    Genre: Romance / Humor Words: 1925747 Chapters: 297 - LATEST

    Your eyes are not deceiving you. 12,133 reviews. 297 chapters. 1.92 MILLION words. From what I can tell, it's a Harry Potter/Dirty Dancing x-over, but I'm not willing to investigate. The very idea makes me nauseous.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    EDIT: Yeah, I know the chart looks wonky with those extra spaces in it. I tried to remove them, and they refuse to leave. Using the 'code' tag makes it an even bigger mess. Screw it.

    Damn.

    I wish I had that much spare time!

    I have pretty much reached the point where I only read something recommended by an author I have already read.

    Seeing all that slash when I look at new updates. :shudders:

    DarkLordMike, you are not allowed to waste this much time. That was eight hours you should have spent writing the Potter Conspiracy! Shame on you! :whipped:
