FF: Popular Slash Stories

In READINGS on November 29, 2010 at 4:01 pm

kinda fits :}

I think I got to the place where I may be ready for slash.

I have yet to read a slash story. The only experience I have is by accident: I started reading a story without checking summary and basic info and I got through the first chapter and only then realized everything that went in it was between Edward and Jasper, not Edward and Bella as I assumed. So after some consideration I stopped. I guess I wasn’t there at that moment, thus the story seemed promising.

And now I want to know what slash-readers are reading. I haven’t considered any other pairing, but I believe Edward/Jasper is most popular, right (just a guess)?

So, here are results…

FF: Most reviewed K-T rated fics

TOP-150 Twilight FanFiction Stories

My problem with FanFic

 

  1. Thank you for sharing, love the list 😉

  2. The multi-chapter list is extremely inaccurate. This is because for example a story like “Show me a Garden That’s Bursting into Life” by ATypical-Swan will which is at number 4 will obviously be higher on the list because it has a lot more chapters which could mean more reviews. So the better way to do it would be to divide the reviews by the amount of chapters so far and get an average amount of reviews per chapter than simply looking at the amount of reviews received. For each chapter “Show me a garden that’s bursting into life” has 53 reviews a chapter on average. Raw and Rosy has 19 Chapters with 3226 reviews. This means that on average the fic has 170 reviews a chapter as opposed to the 53 that “Show me a garden that’s bursting into life” has. So obviously it should be higher on the list.Other stories like “Marked”, “Your Biggest Fan”, “Errors and Emissions”, “Tangible Dichotomy”, “Said and Done” etc. Tangible Dichotomy averages more reviews per chapter than Lesson’s Learned. And then they are some stories that are at the bottom of the list mostly because they have less chapters which also affects the amount of reviews e.g “What Matters”by Strae actually averages 119 reviews a chapter but its at number 39 on the list. Then there are stories that didn’t make it on the list because they had very few chapter and so their reviews were to low to make the list. E.g Rmhale’s “I am not an Angel” only has 4 chapters but it averages at 69 reviews a chapter. This means it should have made the list at an even higher position than “Show me a garden that’s bursting into life”. This is the same case with her fic “The Path to absolution”.
    In the case of one-shots, one-shots that were posted as part of a contest are more likely to get more reviews than those that aren’t part of a contest. Of course there are other factors that could come into play but that’s the gist of what I wanted to say.I know it seams like I’m making mountains out of mole hills but if I’m an author and someone out there wants to rate my story in a list with other stories I would at least want the person to be relatively accurate and fair in their assessment.

    • Thank you for the feedback 🙂
      I believe there’s no way to get an accurate list, there are too many factors…
      I’m sorry if you feel your or somebody else’s story is underrated. That was not the purpose. The stories are just sorted by total number of reviews to have an idea what people read. Number of reviews per chapter is another way to look at it. I added a file with number of reviews per chapter for those interested (below the multi-chapter table).
