I will say, in regard to there being no truly 'bad' stories, some were truly -too short-. But for the first round, given how much there is to review, maybe that will be a good thing in the long run. Next round, though, I hope for a longer average. Yep, some were definitely too short, I agree entirely. Some of the good ones could have been so much better if they were a little bit longer. It really made me a bit sad to see the potential the authors could have coaxed out of it if they had spent more time writing them.

Could be Charlotte Two. That seems like a story crafted to Tam's tastes. The order of the posts on the subboard is what makes me think otherwise. But yeah, I think it -has- to be one of those two. They're the "fun" stories.

They're the "fun" stories. Yeah, I always feel the fun stories have a wider voter pool than the thinking stories. Or maybe that's just my experience from that one year of the AWR Cup colouring my views.

Taed, if you wrote the one I read last, and I'm pretty sure you did, you are a glorious bastard and I love you.

No. Pete actually said what his favourite story was. Out of all of them.
... your reaction makes me think Pete is right.
