Whoa! I did better than I expected! Great game, Karin!!

[kag523.livejournal.com]

Fantastic guessing! *grins* So glad you enjoyed it. :>D

[coffeesuperhero.livejournal.com]

This was really fun, K! And we got some fantastic pieces out of it. That's what you really wanted, wasn't it? I SEE YOUR TRUE MOTIVES. AND I SALUTE THEM.

[kag523.livejournal.com]

*rubs hands together* Yes... That is INDEED my devious plan!

[shah-of-blah.livejournal.com]

Very cool. I got the first three categories, then fumbled a bit with Independent and New Release. Great idea Karin! :)

[kag523.livejournal.com]

Great job! And thank YOU for the submission. So fantastic!

[damao2010.livejournal.com]

It's official. I truly suck at this. And I have no chance at the lottery, so I better not quit my job or anything. LOL.

Now, did I understand correctly and at least some of the texts are part of bigger works that will soon be release to the public, aka, us?

[kag523.livejournal.com]

I know mserrada's is in the midst of beta and a few others are WIP, so I'd be on the look out for some new and amazing fics!

[thegreenkitty.livejournal.com]

Wow, I guess I'm the opposite of shah_of_blah. I got the last three categories and completely sucked at the first two.

Of course that just confirms what I already knew, which is that I am hopelessly behind on the old school fic. I am grumpy with myself that I didn't get Sarah and Erin's...and that Tara's took me two tries. Sorry ladies, I still love you and your fic. Apparently I just need to read more of it!! I'm adding tamsibling, shah, and olaf to my to-read list as well.

Great job to all the authors!! These pieces were fantastic. Thanks, Karin, for the fun!!

[kag523.livejournal.com]

Thanks for coming out today! I feel like someone who planned for a party of 12 and the entire bar came by after closing time. WOOT! And there's nothing like a party like that!

[coffeesuperhero.livejournal.com]

I believe you promised to read all my fics as penance. ;)

Seriously, though, I couldn't have guessed half of these. Don't feel bad!

[ecstaticdance.livejournal.com]

Ha! I got exactly half of each category.

Excellent game, and so much fun!

[kag523.livejournal.com]

Great job! :>)

[rachelindeed.livejournal.com]

Wow, these were all so wonderful, such a delight to read! I was out most of the day so I just now read everything, and found that in basically every category I felt sure of one entry and utterly unsure about the rest, which just goes to show that I see but I do not *observe!* The only ones I got right in my own head were uberscribbler's, taragel's, sci-fi shipper's, yours, and kdbleu's. I am a sad, sad excuse for a fanfic reader. But I enjoyed these drabbles so much, they were really gorgeous, all of them. And your categorizations and posters MADE MY WEEK. So ridiculously creative and fun. Thank you so much!!!

[kag523.livejournal.com]

YAY! Thank YOU Rachel for the fantastic entry! You are such an inspiration. (I know I've told you this before.) So great! :>D

[ninety6tears.livejournal.com]

I did not comment but I really enjoyed reading and the manips are amaaaazing.
I heart Oscar week.

[kag523.livejournal.com]

Thank you! That makes me grin! :>D

[ddt73.livejournal.com]

All the snippets we got were just excellent. Shows the depth of talent of our fandom's writers.

Have to give props to Taragel who I noticed got every category right, where she guessed. She didn't guess in the category where she appeared for obvious reasons.

Way to go Tara :)

[kag523.livejournal.com]

Absolutely! Kudos to both Tara and all the fic writers. Woot! :>D

[callmeonetrack.livejournal.com]

\o/ That was a lot of fun. It was really interesting to see how well you knew/could recognize other people's voices!!

[kag523.livejournal.com]

I agree with Dave's comments... which means out comes the Katee WOW gif!

CONGRATULATIONS TARA!!!!!

[thrace-adama.livejournal.com]

Very cool game, Karin. Thanks for including me. I didn't get a chance today due to work, but I look forward to reading all the snippets!

[kag523.livejournal.com]

There are some really fantastic ones. And thank YOU for submitting! Really, really awesome to have so many excellent authors!

[kdbleu.livejournal.com]

That was fun! The snippets were all really fun to read.

Good Job! :D

[kag523.livejournal.com]

Thanks for coming out and participating!!!! :>D

[angelicalangie.livejournal.com]

Just wanted to say thank you for including me. I had a real gas watching people got no clue who she is but I deduce so and so is angelicalangie. That was fun!

It also got me off my backside and back into writing. But as yet everything is unbeta'd so I know it's probably a bit ropey.

Any how thank you for the inclusion. That rocked!

[mserrada.livejournal.com]

Like you said. It was fun seeing how folks deduced who did what to whom!

BIG THANKS to Kag523 for nudging/prodding/poking me to toss my glove into the game.

[amidala-thrace.livejournal.com]

Hee, predictable Liz is predictable. ;) (Next time I'm going to fake all you guys out and write a 100-word drabble. HA. ;P)

[kag523.livejournal.com]

*grins* That is easier said than done... I have YET to be able to control myself in that way.

[swamp-ariadne.livejournal.com]

uhmm, i kinda figured you'd be seriously swamped in comments so i refrained from driving you further into insanity. girl, when you throw a party, it ROCKS! this is the event of the season girl, you need a breather. well done on the whole thing. all of those poster manips were excellent, however i did find Lee as Scott Pilgrim to be very disturbing. My mind refuses to accept the image of a scrawny Lee - it is a nightmare I tell you and I need to wake up from it.

[kag523.livejournal.com]

*grins* That comment is made of WIN! Seriously, I was grinning, and laughing so hard I couldn't breathe. Not to worry... more manips on the way!

[lotus79.livejournal.com]

This was an awesome game! I just wish I had had the time to commentspam a bit more!

Can't wait to see what you cme up with next!

[kag523.livejournal.com]

Up now! *pushes keyboard toward you*
We need someone to start casting and script writing!

[koolaidmom11.livejournal.com]

I was reading those snippets from England and realized that I hadn't read all of those beautifully written stories. Do you have a master list by any chance? K thanks

[kag523.livejournal.com]

Believe it or not, EVERY ONE of those fantastic pieces were written specifically for this game, OR had never been published. Isn't that AMAZING!

*cheers for the best fandom ever*
