Friends of HP Friendship!
Our fest has come to an end, and today is the day for the big reveals. But before we come to that, let your mods,
pale_moonlite and
tetleythesecond, give a big round of thanks to all you fantastic writers, readers, commenters, reccers, and general supporters! You have produced a total of 25 fics, 499 review comments both on
Dreamwidth and
Livejournal, and so far six Daily Snitch Hot Recs. Who said that fandom was losing momentum?
Before we get to a few individual mentions, here is the

And now for some Statistics. People wrote a great bandwidth; the 25 fics were about a total of 36 characters, including Mrs Norris and Ripper. The oldest was Griselda Marchbanks, the youngest were Albus Severus Potter and Scorpius Malfoy.
Ten people participated in the Guessing Game, and we have a hands-down winner: the Gold Medal goes to the Usain Bolt of Author Recognition,
miss_morland, with a total of 18 (!) correct guesses. Silver and Bronze go to
pitry with 9 and
primeideal with 8.
Our own little doping scandal is brought to you courtesy of
therealsnape, who guessed on three fics in which she was named as a beta.
The most-guessed authors were
kellychambliss and
wemyss (with both fics). Six people guessed them correctly. The Stealth Award goes to four authors, all of whom got guesses, but none of them correct:
gamma_x_orionis,
inamac,
miss_morland, and
zofbadfaith.
Top commenters: First off, we have to say we are flattened by the response. Almost all fics went into the double digits, which is fantastic for a summertime fest at a time when comments in general seem to have been going down. You all can be proud of yourselves! Still, we would like to give an extra mention to the two of you who took the time to review every single fic. Come and get your medals,
primeideal and
kellychambliss!
And because a fest also lives from its reader-only supporters, the Golden Olive Wreath for top commenter from among the spectators goes to
albalark with 23 comments.
Once more, thank you all for making this a fantastic fest!
