Here are my first guesses - I'm not including ones which I know for sure (because I beta-read or wrote)

"The Bookmobile and the Water Witch" - Adabsolutely
"Batman and the Immortal" - Ryenna (Merriman)
"Win, Place or Show" - either Ishafel or Silentflux, can't make up my mind
"Don't Rock the Boat" - Lferion
"Rising to the Challenge" - Silentflux
"Desperados Waiting for a Train" - I think that Unovis did my story - (the language feels familiar, but I refuse to cheat and look at her past stories)
"Sastrugi" - I'm leaning toward Hafital (but that might not be my final answer)
"Tantalus" - Killa, I think.
"A Tale of Diamonds and Drawers" - either Idontlikegravy or Jinxed_Wood. I think. Maybe.

And that's my guesses for now.

This is good, because I don't think any amount of therapy could cure me.

I think Amand_r wrote "The Matryoshka Principle."

that is all. Maybe more guesses later.

umm, I already guessed on the earlier thread. So I won't submit the same guess again.

Did the stats include number of boats? I think they may be as numerously present as horses.

I did not count the boats and I totally should have.

Yes. I also think Amand-r wrote 'The Matryoshka Principle'. Awesome wot.
Good call
:)

The others . . . this is hard, so many good stories, so much talent.

'Sastrugi' - by Killa.
'Desperados Waiting for a Train' - I'm guessing Unovis.

Hmmm. Off to read some more.

I fail at this guessing thing. I have two or three authors in mind for more than half of the stories I've read, and keep pushing them around like scrabble pieces. I fail at scrabble, too. haha.

This is what I've got:

Rejoice -- unovis_lj
the fire-breather -- amonitrate
The Bookmobile and the Water Witch -- tazlet
Protest Too Much -- carenejeans

I'm sure these are all wrong. I haven't a clue who wrote my story. o.O

Just FYI: tazlet isn't in the games this year.

See? See how I fail???

In your defense, she was supposed to be, and she was on the previous list in the last post, but she had to default this year.

My guessometer is not calibrated correctly. Nevertheless, I'll take a couple of leaps...

Don't Rock The Boat--Tessa Rae?
Tantalus--Phyrry?
Sastrugi--I was first tempted to say Unovis, but I'm contrary today and say Amand_r

I have absolutely no clue at all. I think whoever wrote mine knows me well, maybe jinxed_wood, it has the deftness of touch and clever turn of phrase that I associate with her writing.

Also, I think lferion wrote "Don't Rock the Boat", but that's less to do with writing style and more from the posts on her LJ saying her fic was epic!
