So, I've been dinking away at the new archive ( http://pounce.dreamelf.com ) and checked to see my progress.
Fifty stories. woohoo!
Then it hit me... I only have one from the 4th age archived and about a half dozen from the third... also still missing some others from the elder days and a lot of double AU stuff, and lots of muse-fics including the 'ask a canon elf a non-canon question' riffs
50 is, like, nothing here...
What the hell was I doing the last couple years? How the hell did I end up with this much stuff?
*turns gaze to the West and the South, where no doubt Mei and Laura are laughing* I'm a victim of poking abuses...
oddly enough, i won't be pressing any charges...
so, what i first thought would be a big accomplishment turns out not to be
we should play a game. How many Tolkien fics does Zhie really have? Has to be a number over a hundred, at home players, 'cause we know that already.
I shall start the bidding at 257. Who else wants to make a guess? (and yes, you can try to cheat by looking at all the lists here there and the other place, but there are a) no complete lists and b) i highly doubt that anyone other than myself and maybe, maybe Monty has read all howevermany there are fics. Perhaps Laura and Mei, but I have a feeling even they are missing a few here and there on them.
step right up and place your guest estimates below...

I'd say probably in the 600's including the snippets, tidbits, self insertion sillies and the ones still lingering in that vast imagination you have there. *snickers*

Date: 2005-06-17 02:58 pm (UTC)Laura, hereto referred to as the big sis, and Zhie, hereto referred to as lil sis agree to be bound to the following clauses:
*skips to 657*
big sis shall poke lil sis regularly to insure there is no lack of fics and sillyness ever ever.
*skips to signatures*
Witnesses.
Ress
Fin
Manwe
Ulmo
Elbereth
J.R.R. Tolkien
ERU
See? I do not lie...
*POKEY POKEY POKE*
My bet? also in the 600's since I already chose 657 I ams ticking to that but I want it to be clear it only counts for today since I have already been poking and we DO know that results in more fics!
NOW HERE IS THE IMPORTANT PART....
WHERE ARE THE ONES I HAVE NOT READ!?!?!
Clause 125 clearly states I get the right to read them all, it was a right given to me when the archiving duty was also assigned.
