Hmm, can't link to the first chapter to some of these things because most of them, curiously, are in google documents. Always wondered why that format got so popular ..

Nominating "Half the Day is Night" and "Better Living through Science and Ponies". Thirding Fallout: Equestria.

Also, is this how you do this coding thing?

Past Sins is utterly terrible. The author never met a sentence they didn't feel could be turned into a paragraph. I stopped reading when a certain character had the exact same idiotic conversation for the fourth time in the row, just with different characters each time. And every time, it hammered in the same inane message and forced the same stupid conflict. Just, the worst. I liked a central theme* of the part I read. I look forward to the day that theme is included in a readable fanfic.

Spoiler: show
The theme being Twilight as a parent.

Almost, here ye go:
Spoiler: show
You got the code tags right, but when making a URL link you have to give it a title. For example your nomination...

url=http://www.equestriadaily.com/2011/03/s ... night.html[/url]
(The '[' at beginning cut out)

...should have a ']' added to the end of the link, in front of the [/url] tag, then hit space and type the title (green clicky text) in between the new ] and the [/url]:

url=http://www.equestriadaily.com/2011/03/s ... ght.html[b]][/b] Half of Day is Night [/url]
(The '[' at beginning cut out)
Thank you Phht.

A pony fic by Talon? *Wrestles with mouse hand* Must resist seconding without reading!

List updated, and not at all surprised at FoE getting through so fast.

I didn't like past sins either, I mean when you want to strangle the main character to death by about chapter three...
That being said I know it is a very polarising fic and I get that a lot of people like it.

Looks like I was more correct about that than I expected to be. :???:

Anyway, there's now an archive (includes everything so far, except for a scene that no-one got to read because the draft was accidentally deleted and he hasn't got around to rewriting it yet). Given the daily updates, I suspect it will tend to lag behind the thread, so you may or may not want to replace the link.

It is not that I don't like it, I have not looked at any of the fics other than FE: Horizons, still working on that one.
