The Cat That Ate The... (nfic)

Okay, ONE week for voting. Is that okay with everyone? And thanks to Sue for that great recap of voting so far.

Laura

WHAT?!?!? Two weeks for the guessing? People have been guessing for a month - it's time to just take the blinders off and reveal!

Sheesh. I can't possibly wait two more weeks to see how wrong I was.

Please could we make this shorter? Like a couple days. We've all pretty much read the stories and you've already all come to the conclusion that I've written every single story in which Batman showed up -- could we get this game over with, now?

I add my plea to the mix. I'll DIE if I have to wait more than a few days. Pretty please, let's get this crackin'...

alcyone

Oh and is there any way we'll get the list of authors? Pretty please?

Oooo! Good idea! Give a list of who the authors were (although you don't have to tell us if they posted twice) and that will help whittle down the possibilities.

how about three days?

And on the list of authors. More than whittle down...remind us of all the authors so we can go through them and compare them to the story.

Though personally, I think Sue just got really busy and wrote them all.

I think it would be nice to make it a good solid week. I know some people are a bit anxious (I am too) but there are some people who don't visit the boards every day and I would hate for them to miss out on the fun.

Also an authors list would be great. ^_^

So....Many....Fics.

I vote for a week too. At least until the end of this week.

There's still a couple I haven't read yet. Shame on me!

I'll also grovel for an authors list.

I'm at home today (sick - bleh) and I can either refresh the page ad nauseum to see that there are no new posts, or I can do something vaguely constructive. So here's a recap of who's guessed what on this game. I'm leaving out the people who didn't really guess or who refused to guess. The first name is the guesser, the second is the author they're guessing:

No guesses

I think we all ran out of steam, after the first week or so. Huge props to Elisabeth, who managed a guess on nearly every fic (and I bet she would have guessed on all of them if RL hadn't been so heavy at the end of the month).

/me thinks Sue should spend her time writing instead of hunting down guesses.

...who's with me?

one solid week sounds good. And a list of authors would be ok, I guess.

James

I think so too.

Okay! Well then one week it is. That way everyone can have time to guess/not die of a wait. And I'll post a list of all the authors too. Check the top, I just edited it.

You go, Elisabeth for guessing on almost every story! That's awesome and I admit way more than I can do-at least without simply randomly guessing! I do read hints of Laura in "Queer Eye." I know, I'll try to hunt down something by each of the authors listed and at least have a little more educated a guess that way.

Thanks Laura for listing the authors.

Mona

Wait, Woody wrote a fic? That in itself is a surprise. And, considering a PN that came just too quickly, I have a good guess which one it is. Darn it, Woody, you had me fooled completely.

Good to know.

Btw, is this going to be a poll at the end or something else? Do we PM you Laura with our guesses?

Oh, and check Queenie's name. (thr to the)

I was thinking people would just post them here, and then at the end I'd make a tally of all the stats. Does that sound okay?

I tried to PM you Laura, but your mailbox was full. So I tried to email you. Did you get the email this time?
