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...

**** POKE POKE POKE ****

It's not abuse when you like it, ya know. *sticks tongue out*

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*

*POKEYPOKEYPOKE* I was assigned this job by the Vala, no by Eru, no the professor, wait, also the head muses yup I was, it is right there on the contract, clause 657:

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.
