Round 20 is over!

[lolmac]

This was a really great round!  We had an entire parade of ninja animals to keep us on our toes and inspire crackiness.  We had new faces in addition to the usual round of suspects.  We celebrated sidlj's birthday!  And we wrote, revised, edited, posted, and did research.  And "Research", of course.

We even have crack to show for it!
The Rare Avis Affair, by idlewild_ (Man From UNCLE)
The Ark in Time and Space, by dbskyler (Doctor Who)
Punchline, by lolmac (MacGyver)

Be sure to watch the comm for the poll for next month's 'Rush weekend.
And please take a moment to thank your Mod Squad, especially isdon_isgood9, who did an extra shift, chibifukurou, who went on stand-by for extra modding and also found us lovely ninja art, lullabymoon, idlewild_, dbskyler, pitry, and lothithil! And I'm lolmac, for those who don't know me yet or are afraid I've been replaced with a ninja double.

To answer JTurtle's question about the fic gallery:  good question, and one I've been thinking about a lot.
There is a very, very out of date gallery for this comm, of fic written (or partly written) during various rounds of the 'Rush.  It was originally maintained by the comm's founder, studyofrunning, but she hasn't been able to keep it going in recent months.  In addition, this comm has grown a great deal in the last year, and I don't think the single 'fic gallery' post is a good format for handling the massive amount of fic that has been written here!

Accordingly, I'm thinking of setting up another sister comm as a fic gallery.  I'd welcome thoughts and feedback.

I'd also be interested to know where people archive their fic.  I'm about to create a poll to ask that; please stand by.

My ff.net account is under the name MacBedh, and my AO3 account is MacBeth. (The running joke is that I'm called Beth -- the 'Mac' is silent.)

The story in question is a novel titled "Reverb". It's here on ff.net: http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5360766/1/Reverb

If you prefer AO3 (who wouldn't?), I have started to get it posted here: http://archiveofourown.org/works/242363/chapters/373099 -- however, I'm reviewing the master documents as I go, which means it's taking me several days to get the longer works onto the new platform. Reverb is a full-length novel, and I'm only up to chapter 5 on the new posting.

If you'd like something shorter that's very very Macgyverish, you might like this one: http://archiveofourown.org/works/74142/chapters/98311 -- it's titled "101 Uses For a Dead Uzi". *g*

Thanks for the link. I'm going to go for the Murdoc novel since I'm hoping to get the scoop on his indestructibility. ;-) Now I've got the rest of my Sunday evening taken care of.

I'm just up to Surprise!Murdoc in the cell and the AMPUTATIONS! D-: I am rivetted!

*is delighted*

A couple of the readers who gave me detailed feedback admitted that, by the time Murdoc actually showed up, they had forgotten he was going to be there. This was high praise indeed. *g*

Murdoc was far too much fun to write -- especially since I had decided that I wanted him to be genuinely crazy and creepy, instead of camp.
